Chapter 353
“She’s not here? Where did she go?” Pierre asked.
“She went to look for Jamie,” Joaquin replied.
Pierre only felt like he was fully awake then—his fury had woken him up. It’s fine if she doesn’tcome over to coax me, but I can’t believe she even left the house! Where do I stand in her heart?“She can go anywhere she wants to! I don’t care about her! I’m not trying to sound too self-reliant,but I really don’t need her at all!” Pierre furiously sent a trash can flying from the corner of the roomas he kicked it away from him.
Meanwhile, the Internet was raging all over the latest trend; everyone was talking about Meredith.
‘What kind of bullsh*t idol is she? She’s too heartless to be human, let alone an idol!’ someonecommented.novelbin
‘Her private lifestyle is rotten and disgusting. I can’t believe she got herself f*cked after she wentdrinking with her male classmates!’ another comment read.
‘Meredith totally bullied her stepsister. She used her stepsister’s children to go after the man shefancied!’ one exclaimed.
‘F*ck off, Meredith Yard! I don’t want to see your face even for a single second!’
Meredith’s public image was utterly ruined. Everyone was criticizing her on the Internet, and shehad become the trendiest topic across all search engines. Within a single night, she had lost aboutten million followers on her Twitter account. The remaining followers explained that they wanted towatch how Meredith was going to clear her name. Apart from that, most of her fan bases hadquickly disbanded. Many of her loyal fans stated that they had wasted years of their love and efforton the wrong person.
Landy made a wise decision to act quickly in that situation. She instantly released an official reportto provide a general explanation of how the company had investigated Meredith’s behaviors to findthat she used illegitimate ways to manipulate her ticket sales. The report explained that she hadinappropriately boosted her fame by slandering other celebrities; that her personal life was an uttermess; that she went against the company’s rules and regulations, and so on. Then, Landyproceeded to announce that the company was terminating its contract with her. They followed byannouncing Meredith’s departure from the entertainment industry. With that, the entire commotionwas brought to an end.

Pierre realized that John must have been involved in this entire issue when he saw the news ofMeredith’s situation; he knew that John wouldn’t forgive Meredith so easily. Soon enough, Pierrehimself received orders to meet John in the study.
In the room, John was sitting on his chair in a stern and upright manner. The old man didn’t revealany expression on his face; he had always been one to keep his emotions to himself. “Where’sSelena?” John asked.
“She went shopping.” Pierre gave him a simple, three-worded reply. Clearly unsatisfied with hisanswer, John was about to say something, but Pierre interrupted him before he could say anything.“I want to marry her,” Pierre said.
John glanced up to stare at his son then. This was one of the only times the father and son everexchanged glances with one another, and John found himself looking into a pair of sharp, firm, andstubborn eyes. Pierre’s words didn’t sound like a request; it sounded more like a notice, phased in adeclarative manner.
“We can talk about this when Jamie comes back.” John wasn’t aware that Jamie was actually alive,so he intentionally phrased his sentence in this manner to indicate his disagreement toward Pierre
and Selena’s marriage. However, Pierre simply got to his feet as he uttered a simple reply. “Okay.”
Upon hearing that, John sent him a suspicious stare. He didn’t understand what Pierre meant.‘Okay’? Is he trying to provoke me? Is he discontented with my opinions? Or does he have anotherplan?
Then, Pierre left the study without saying anything else. He didn’t bother to ask how John woulddeal with Meredith, for he knew that his father had the most heartless and cruel manners of dealingwith others. Of course, he knew that John wasn’t going to show any mercy.
