[You know how celebrities are,] someone replied.
[How was she able to directly involve the officials?] [It’s a classic distraction technique. She clearlywants us off her case. The two incidents don’t even correlate.]
At the same time, a few people were making insinuating remarks saying, [Exactly. Stella must havesecretly placed that rotten meat in their cafeteria freezer during the night! I bet she planted thosesprouted potatoes and oranges! And she must’ve chucked their cutting board into the toilet beforeputting it back!]
[You guys are making things up. Do you think she would resort to partaking in online drama to obtainthe kindergarten if she had such power? And would she go as far as putting herself under publicscrutiny and ruining her career?]
“I’m neutral toward both parties. But food hygiene is much more serious than pulling publicity stunts.We should really separate the two topics. The kindergarten could be subjected to criminal charges!”
Comments continued to flood in, showing the public’s outrage over the food safety in SunlightKindergarten. In their eyes, Stella had not actually infringed upon the public’s interests, even if she wasdoing it for publicity. However, the kindergarten was undoubtedly compromising the health of thechildren.
After reading this news, many parents grew concerned about the sanitation standards of their children’skindergarten cafeterias and the healthiness of their daily meals.
Consequently, officials from both the Health Department and the FDA found themselves swamped withwork. They were receiving numerous complaint calls about the incident. Some reports were purely
speculative, but it was not entirely the parents’ fault. The severity of the matter warranted a vigilantapproach from everyone.
Stella kept scrolling through the comments while Keegan leaned on the table with his elbows. Helooked at her and asked, “How’s it going? Did your wish come true?”
“What?” Stella hesitated. Then, she suddenly realized something. “You did this?”
“One must gather intel on the enemy to be prepared to counter their next moves,” Keegan casuallyreplied. It was his customary approach.
While Stella had been strategizing with Ted about what to do next, Keegan had already sent individualsto interact with the kindergarten staff.
Keegan’s investigation focused on two areas, which were food safety and fire safety. Any deficiency ineither category could be exploited. Even if the food hygiene at Sunlight Kindergarten was up tostandard, they could find problems with fire safety if they tried hard enough.novelbin
The illicit profits earned by Sunlight Kindergarten had not translated into better treatment for their staff.Keegan’s men were able to expose the issues after a few probing questions to the workers at thekindergarten.
Following that, Keegan arranged for people to impersonate concerned parents and contact the media.Naturally, the media did not pass up the opportunity for such a scandal and got right to work.
Stella pursed her lips and told Keegan she had just paid someone to have Sunlight Kindergarteninvestigated for fire safety.
Keegan clicked his tongue and said, “Looks like you’ve wasted your money. I guess it’s karma for notgetting your husband involved.”
Stella’s mouth twitched. “Don’t flatter yourself! You’re still on probation!”
Keegan chuckled softly and leaned forward slightly. His voice deepened, as he said, “When are yougoing to promote me? I’ve already reached the required score.”
Stella paused. “How is that even possible? How many points do you have right now?”
Keegan pulled out his phone and handed it to her. Stella glanced at it and immediately frowned. “Overa thousand? Did you add some points to yourself behind my back?”
Keegan glanced at her and said, “I knew you’d try to back out. Don’t worry, I meticulously record everypoint on here.”
He opened his notes that listed each time points were given or taken away from him.
“Why did you start with -10000 when I asked you to start with -100000!” Stella immediately pointed outthe problem.
Keegan was baffled.
Stella handed the phone back to him and confidently stated that he cheated.
Keegan clenched his teeth and said, “You said to start with – 10000! You can’t just raise the bottomscore now that I’ve achieved your requirements!”
