Chapter 1370 A Flurry of Rumors
"Hold on. Don't do anything yet. I have a bad feeling about this. Get everyone you brought to head back," Kenton instructed.
Upon hearing that, Kerry gestured for the group to turn back. He didn't inquire further as he trusted Kenton's decision.
After ending the call, Kenton immediately checked his phone to see the time Benette made the post. He asked his tech personnel to investigate the IP address, only to find that it had switched from the specialty store to the Wray family's and became unchangeable.
Kenton was furious. He thought Benette had taken a bribe, changed the video's IP address to point to the Wray family, and then fled.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Kenton blamed Wynter for everything, seething with rage.
With that IP address, people could easily trace it back to the Wray family. In this digital age, nothing could be kept hidden under the scrutiny of the internet.
Even though he promptly had his tech personnel hack into Benette's account to delete the video, it was still too late.
When the video was first posted, no one paid attention to the IP address. Everyone focused on the content instead, which led to some people online blindly criticizing the applesauce factory.
When those unaware of the truth started following the flow of public opinion, that was when things got truly scary.
While the tech personnel hacked into the account and deleted the video, some sharp-eyed individuals managed to spot the IP address. Once the video was removed, it sparked a flurry of rumors.
"The person who uploaded the video suddenly deleted it. Could he have been forced to?"
"Were you all only focused on the video? Good thing I was smart enough to check. The video's IP address leads to the Wray family!"
"The Wray family? Isn't the Wray family the leading company in Hawford? How could the video's IP be linked to them? Could there be something fishy going on?"
"According to the latest insider news, the Wray family has been portraying their products as proudly local, but in reality, they use international brands. The author who exposed this was threatened by the family, which was why the issue didn't spread further."
Seeing those comments, the Wray family felt a sense of impending doom for the first time.
On the other hand, the Blaise family was enjoying a surge in both popularity and sales.
With tears in his eyes and his voice trembling with emotion, Orson said, "Thank you so much for your support! I trust that you will clear my name.
"This issue has led to returns and penalty payments from my distributors, and I felt as though I was on the brink of collapse. I didn't expect such support to help me through this difficult period."
Wynter stepped forward to support Orson. Noticing his pale complexion and knowing he hadn't had much rest these past few days, she said, "Mr. Blaise, don't worry too much. You should take some time to rest and recover your health. I'll prepare some medication for you shortly."
In an instant, the livestream's chat was bombarded with messages, urging Orson to take care of his health. They also expressed their determination to hold the Wray family's fake local brand accountable.
They vowed to ensure the other party faced consequences!
Tobias turned to the camera and said, "Hello, everyone. I'm Kina. Thank you all for watching and supporting this livestream.
"This livestream has been completely transparent from start to finish, with no script involved. Everything, including the factory's production line and food processing, is visible.
"Apart from the Blaise family, there are many other local brands around. I hope you'll support them as well."
