After a night of brewing, things had only gotten worse.
Chance Linden, Uliana’s father, had been completely in the dark about the whole mess—unaware that his own daughter was the source of the trouble.
But when he woke up that morning, his phone was practically exploding.
It was only after his assistant explained that he finally learned about the viral Ogilly’s Steakhouse video.
Chance grabbed his phone, scrolling through the barrage of news articles.
With every headline, his blood pressure shot up.
The top ten trending topics were all about the Linden Group.
His daughter wasn’t just being dragged through the mud online—even the family company, Linden Group, had become a lightning rod for hate.
Social media was flooded with calls to boycott the Linden Group and Ogilly’s Steakhouse.
Even Foster Realty was taking a hit by association.
Chance was furious. Uliana really outdid herself this time—single-handedly dragging the company into a storm like this.
Reporters swarmed outside the company building, all trying to get a word from him.
Chance barricaded himself inside the office, refusing to show his face.
But the journalists were relentless—staking out the main entrance, the parking garage, the stairwells, even lurking by the back door.
He hadn’t been home in over twenty-four hours.
At this point, all he could do was call his wife, hoping she could shed some light on what had really happened.
He didn’t dare call Uliana directly—he was afraid he’d blow a gasket if he heard her voice.
Only when he spoke to his gentle, patient wife did he feel the tightness in his chest ease, if only a little.
He dialed her number, and she picked up almost immediately.
