Chapter 295
John paused before asking Serenity, “What do you want us to do, Serenity?”
As the eldest among them, Mike addressed Serenity, saying, “Despite our past conflicts, we are all part of one big family. Even though your dad is no longer with us, he is still my uncle.”
“Yes, we made mistakes, but we’ve learned from them. You’re the bigger person here. Please find it in your heart to forgive us. We promise we will never treat you and your sister that way again.”
Thanks to the internet, it has become easy and quick to manage certain issues.
However, it can also turn the tide against you and lead to unforeseen consequences.
Today, Mike might use the internet to intimidate his cousins, but tomorrow, he could find himself facing public backlash.
Many people struggle to understand the humiliation of being a victim of cyberbullying, hateful comments from online users, and public condemnation unless they have experienced it themselves.
After Serenity tweeted a rebuttal, the Hunts found themselves caught in a backlash. They either lost their jobs, suffered significant business losses, or faced cancellations of agreements. Additionally, their reputations were damaged.
The Hunts had endured sleepless nights lately, filled with anger and frustration. They were losing sleep, plotting revenge against Serenity and Liberty. Serenity laughed coldly. “I’m vile, spiteful, and petty. You did what you did to hurt me and my sister. You couldn’t achieve your goals and chose to back down when the situation turned against you.”
“Wait. No. You’re not backing down. You’re here to apologize today because the online community is targeting you, and it has severely impacted your financial interests. You’re here to safeguard your assets, not out of remorse for your actions.”
Did they think she was a…
Fool? Did they really think she wouldn’t see through their plans?
The first time the Hunt boys sought to make peace, they wanted Serenity to visit Old Mrs. Hunt. Their intention was to record the entire reconciliation, so the world would take notice and move on, shifting the focus away from them.
After Serenity turned down their peace offering, Noah threatened to vandalize her shop. Holding onto his grudge, Noah enlisted some thugs to confront her in the middle of the road and resort to violence. Serenity would have ended up in the hospital if she hadn’t practiced self-defense.
Her uncles made a scene when she called the police to arrest Noah. Serenity didn’t believe these unscrupulous relatives had genuinely repented. They maintained that they were always right and that Serenity was in the wrong. “Serenity, aren’t we sincere enough?” John, a senior executive at a subsidiary of Stone Group with an annual income exceeding a million dollars, had become arrogant, often surrounded by flattery from his employees. He lacked patience as well.
Pointing at the fruit baskets, he grimaced and said, “Can’t you see how many fruit baskets we’ve given you? Do you have any idea how much one basket costs? You likely wouldn’t spend that much on a fruit basket.
“Yet, we’ve given you so many. How can you question our sincerity? You’re pushing your luck, Serenity. Is this the gratitude we receive? Don’t think for a second that we can’t reach you. We’re only trying to reconcile because your deceased father is our uncle, and we don’t want Granddad and Grandmom to be upset since they aren’t getting any younger.”
