When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1249 Sowing Discord

“What’s the plan?” Cecilia asked.

Charlotte explained, “I’ve looked at some examples online. Apart from clearing things up, one way to deal with negative rumors is to expose even bigger scandals.

“Also… does Eric have a secret girlfriend?” Charlotte asked.

Cecilia seemed to know where this was leading but shook her head. “I’m not sure, probably not.”

She hadn’t spent much time with Eric and was unsure whether Eric was in a relationship at the moment.

“It would be great if he could openly have a girlfriend.”

This afternoon, I made plans to have lunch with him, Cecilia said. “Why don’t you come along? We can ask him about it.”

Upon hearing that she was to meet Eric, a sparkle lit up in Charlotte’s eyes. “Great! It’s been a while since I last saw such a handsome guy. I could use a feast for my eyes.

“Cahn down now, calm down,” Cecilia said with a laugh.

With such an influential family background, Cassandra is essentially invincible.

Upon having that thought, Miranda immediately turned back and knocked on Cecilia’s door.

Cecilia looked up, a flicker of surprise crossing her eyes “Please, come in.”

Miranda entered the room in her high heels. Seeing this, Charlotte decided to leave the office first.

“Miranda, what can I do for you?” asked Cecilia.

The two of them had long been at odds, but they still had to maintain a facade of civility.

“Nothing in particular. It’s just that I saw some news online and got a bit worried for you,” Miranda said as she pulled out a chair to sit, crossing her left leg over her right. “Ceci, we’ve known each other for many years, and I hate to see you being treated so poorly by others. Let me tell you, Cassandra is behind the online controversy.”

Cecilia knew she only had a handful of enemies, but she wasn’t sure which one was responsible…
