The person who posted it claimed to be a former client Liz’s, accusing her of overcharging, having a terrible attitude, and lacking skill–so much so that they supposedly lost their case because of her.

The comment section quickly filled with people agreeing

“I hired this lawyer before too. She was always late and made me wait for hours every time we met. She wasted so much of my time that I switched to another lawyer overnight. I can’t believe she’s still practicing.”

“Don’t get me started. I hired her for my case and she stammered through the entire trial. Her arguments were full of holes. The opposing lawyer ran circles around her, and she was totally lost. Honestly, if you didn’t know better, you’d think they were on the same side.”

“Anyone off the street who knows a little law could do better. She charges a fortune and delivers a mess. People like her should have their license revoked.”

Some even threatened to show up at her firm and cause scene, vowing they wouldn’t let a fame–hungry hack like her keep scamming people who really needed a lawyer.

People at the firm saw the post too and immediately began defending Liz in the comments. Their replies were quickly drowned out by an army of hostile accounts, and some were even blocked from commenting at

all.

Naomi rolled her chair over to Liz’s desk and saw that she was looking at the post as well. “A bunch of us at the firm tried to speak up for you, but we got blocked and our comments were deleted. Liz… did you offend someone?”

It was obvious from the post and the flood of hostile accounts that this was a planned attack.

Liz closed the page and turned to Naomi. “Who else could it be? Messing up all my cases wasn’t enough. Now he wants to ruin my career completely.”

Naomi frowned. “Maybe you should ask Mr. Quinn for help?”

Liz shook her head. “No. I’m not dragging him into this”

Their firm didn’t have any major investors behind it. Going up against Zac would be like throwing an egg at

a brick wall, and she wasn’t going to put the firm in jeopardy over her personal issues.

“At least let the firm release a statement to clear your me.”

“If the firm releases a statement, it’s the same as declaring war on Zac. I won’t make Mr. Quinn take that risk.”

After graduating, she had spent a year helping Zac start his business. When she finally returned to practicing law, every firm she applied to turned her away–until Mr. Quinn gave her a chance. She owed him for that and refused to repay him with trouble.

“But even if you want to gather evidence to prove the post is full of lies, it will take time. By then, people will already believe it. In this business, reputation is everything.”

“It doesn’t matter. I can’t get any cases right now anyway, so my reputation means little. Don’t worry about me. I’ll figure it out.”

Naomi nodded. “Alright. But if you need help, just tell me.”

“I will.”

When Naomi returned to her desk, Liz reopened the webpage. The number of comments was climbing fast- already in the thousands—and shares had passed two thousand.

Hunter leaned over and saw the insults filling the screen His face darkened. “Liz, you’re just going to let them smear you like this?”

Since working with her, he had reviewed her past cases. She rarely lost, and even in settlements, she always secured the best possible outcome for her clients. The accusations in the comments were all fabricated.

“Taking down the post won’t solve anything,” she said calmly.

The real problem was her unfinished business with Zac

Meanwhile, in the president’s office at Voyager Tech, Zac had also seen the post. Reading the slander in the comments sent a wave of anger through him. He immediately called Chase into his office.

“Find out who posted this.”

Just then, Xena walked in carrying a stack of files. Seeing Zac’s dark expression, she asked, “Mr. Lincoln, is something wrong?”

“It’s nothing. You can leave,” he said coolly.

“But I thought I heard something about a post just now…” She studied him, her tone probing.

Zac frowned at her, his eyes turning cold.
