Chapter 350: Chapter 350: Digging into Just How Rich Naomi Kenway’s Family Is

[That was some pretty convincing acting. I’m curious to see how Naomi Kenway cleans this up. Is Flora Shaw actually going to come out and explain herself?]

[Here’s a fun fact: Flora Shaw has been abroad for years and hasn’t appeared in the media recently. She also doesn’t have any social media accounts. This means it’s highly possible Naomi Kenway just hired an actor.]

[This is just audacious. Scheming to use the Shaw Family... My opinion of that couple just plummeted.]

[A leopard can’t change its spots. I’ve been saying Naomi Kenway is no good from the start. There was no ’misunderstanding.’ She just hid her greedy, cunning side. Gotta say, her marketing strategy has gotten a lot more sophisticated since she changed agents.]

[I remember Naomi Kenway has a movie coming out soon, right? Maybe this is all an act to generate publicity for it.]

[Can anyone contact the Shaw Family? Is such a huge family just going to stand by while some shameless actress uses them for clout?]

[They probably can’t be bothered with such petty squabbles!]

[Some of you are being so nasty. What proof do you have that the person on the phone with Nina wasn’t Flora Shaw herself? Spreading baseless rumors without any evidence... do you ever think about the harm you’re causing?]

[Naomi Kenway sure has a lot of fans. Do you guys not use your brains? It’s one thing to pretend to be rich, but she’s trying to leech off the wealthiest family in the country. The only reason she’s getting away with it is because the Shaw Family can’t be bothered with her.]

...

The matter of Naomi Kenway’s phone call with Flora Shaw was a hot topic online. Most people remained skeptical, believing it was a little show Naomi had staged with a hired actor.

At six in the evening, Flora Shaw suddenly registered a social media account and posted a clarification:

[Flora Shaw V: Hello, friends. This is Flora Shaw. I’ve received many messages from netizens. First, thank you for your concern. Second, I must explain that it was only after my call with Nia that I learned "Pines and Cypresses" had caused such a huge controversy. Things are not what you imagine. That landscape painting was a gift I gave to Ian and Nia six years ago. The talk of it being a high-quality replica is completely false. Recently, many marketing accounts online have been spreading rumors and slandering Nia. I urge everyone to please keep your eyes open and not be led astray!

Finally, Nia is a wonderful actress. My child is exceptionally talented, and I hope you will all come to like her!

Typing all these words is quite draining, so let’s leave it at that for today. Goodbye, everyone!] 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Shortly after Flora Shaw posted her clarification, the topic shot to the top of the trending lists.

[Did they actually bait out the real Flora Shaw? Am I dreaming? Is this really her? Or just someone with the same name?]

[I know it’s hard to believe, but it’s really her. Click on her profile. The verification says "General Manager of Zhonghe, Senior Jewelry Appraiser." This is the real Flora Shaw, Flora Shaw herself.]

[Holy crap, so Naomi Kenway was playing for real?]

[Thank you, Ms. Shaw, for the clarification! Now Nina is finally vindicated. No matter how she explained it before, people would just attack her. Let’s see who dares to talk nonsense now!]

[Damn, this is *Flora Shaw* we’re talking about. Naomi, my queen, I declare you my one and only idol in the entertainment industry from now on! Let me worship you, rich goddess!]

[This is weird. Naomi Kenway calls Flora Shaw ’Aunt,’ but Flora Shaw is an only child. So how does that ’Aunt’ title work? Flora Shaw only clarified the situation but didn’t explain her relationship with Naomi’s family. Can some kind soul explain it to me? I’m so curious!]

[I said before, it could be a cousin-aunt relationship, or maybe Flora Shaw is good friends with Naomi’s elders, so she calls her ’Aunt.’ There’s no need to get hung up on this. The way Flora Shaw talks about her so affectionately, isn’t that enough to show how close they are?]

[Holy cow. No matter how you slice it, anyone connected to Flora Shaw must be loaded. The thought that all those antique porcelains and famous paintings in Naomi Kenway’s house are real makes my heart pound. Just how rich are they? It’s beyond my comprehension!]

[Naomi Kenway’s mansion plus the antiques on display are probably worth several billion. That couple’s net worth is likely over ten billion.]

[I think it could even be in the hundreds of billions. We’ve only seen what’s in their living room. Naomi Kenway said those weren’t even the most valuable items. We’ve only seen the tip of the iceberg of their mansion.]

[I feel bad for Naomi Kenway now. She’s so rich, yet she’s still filming a variety show to entertain us. I was so clueless before, I even made fun of the rich lady (crying).]

[No wonder Renee Jennings deleted her Weibo posts. I’m dying to know her reaction right now. It’s hilarious to think about how she was flexing her wealth and dissing Naomi Kenway. The tables have turned, huh? That must sting. Turns out, the thing she was proudest of is nothing to Naomi Kenway.]

[I heard Renee Jennings say that Nathaniel is the second young master of the Lynch Group. Everyone’s heard of the Lynch Group, right? The daily chemical giant. Naomi Kenway’s family looks even more luxurious than Nathaniel’s. So just how rich is her family?]

...

Within a single day, Naomi Kenway’s popularity remained sky-high. After the clarification, a new craze swept the internet: "Investigating Just How Rich is Naomi Kenway’s Family." Many entertainment bloggers dug up photos of Naomi and her son from the variety show, pointing out that their seemingly ordinary clothes were actually custom-made pieces from foreign master designers—the kind that money can’t necessarily buy.

Naomi Kenway saw Flora Shaw’s clarification. She posted a thank-you on Weibo and then gave her a call.

At the dinner table that evening, Naomi shared the amusing misunderstanding from today with Ethan Shaw, who had just come home from work.

Ethan Shaw put down his chopsticks and listened attentively to Naomi. When he heard the first part of the story, he couldn’t help but frown, his eyes filled with worry as he took her hand.

He knew that people online could be cruel with their words, and Naomi was a sensitive person.

"Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it," he said.

Naomi laughed. "I’m not finished yet. Don’t be so tense. I’m an adult, not a little kid. Why do you always treat me like a child who can’t protect herself?"

Ethan Shaw smiled without a word, a hint of melancholy in his eyes.

’He was gratified by her courage, yet felt a pang of regret that she didn’t need him.’

"I asked Aunt Flora Shaw to make a clarification, and the matter is resolved now. You don’t have to worry."

"Okay." Ethan Shaw picked up his chopsticks again. "I’m glad it’s resolved."

Watching her joyful smile, Ethan Shaw couldn’t help but curve his own lips into a smile as well.

[Ever since I found out their net worth, I ship them even harder.]

[A real-life tycoon love story. It’s my guilty pleasure and I’m here for it.]

[He subconsciously put down his chopsticks to listen to his wife. He’s so attentive, hahaha.]

[Ian is still seriously chowing down. Eat up, sweetie, so you can grow up big and tall!]
