Chapter 76 The Third Party
Chapter 76: The Third Party
Jennifer listened in silence, her originally angry face slowly fading away.
“Things have festered to this extent. The one being scrutinized the most ferociously is not you, but Mrs. Smith. Mr. Mark Smith as her son, cannot let Mrs. Smith be humiliated. If it really is as the Internet said, Mrs. Smith with a mistress…”
Saying this, the assistant looked carefully at Jennifer’s face and saw that she was not angry before continuing.
“Mrs. Smith interfered in her son’s marriage with a mistress. But the Smith family would not be able to afford to lose their reputation. So, I think for the sake of the family’s name, even if Mr. Smith really hasn’t divorced Mae, he would still need to admit the divorce. Another advantage is that, to avoid outside scrutiny, Mr. Smith will really divorce Mae. And with his ability, it’s not impossible to change. the time of the divorce to four years ago.”
Jennifer’s eyes lit up slightly.
“When that time comes, not only will you get rid of the reputation of being a third party, but Mae will also really get out of the Smith family. Isn’t that killing two birds with one stone?”
After the assistant finished speaking, a smile gradually appeared on Jennifer’s face, “Right, you’re
right.”
“So, Jennifer, you should tell Mr. Smith about this matter now. He is so busy with his noble business that he won’t even pay attention to this gossip on the Internet. Maybe he doesn’t even know that Mrs. Smith was being criticized now.”
The assistant and Jennifer both thought the same thing.
As Mrs. Smith’s son, he wouldn’t just watch her mother be scrutinized after knowing what’s going on
online.
Indeed, Mark did not know about the online gossip. From the time he took over Smith Corporation at the age of twenty, it was at a crisis point. That year, Mark was busy with all kinds of problems. He could only rest a little when the corporation gradually stabilized and became a business giant later
- on.
But perhaps accustomed to this kind of high–intensity work habit, these years, Mark in addition to the occasional wine drinking with a few people, didn’t have any other leisure activities. For him, apart from work, there was more work.
As for the boring gossip on the Internet, he would spend even less time looking at it.
Therefore, when he received Jennifer’s call and heard what she said about those things on the
Internet, a clear impatience appeared on his face.
“Got it.”
In the end, he just coldly left those words and hung up the phone.
After that, he opened the online entertainment news and saw the gossip about him cheating with Jennifer in his marriage and having an illegitimate child. Her mother was parading around with her mistress and the news was spreading everywhere.
Several of the videos were shot in a shopping mall and they recorded Mae confronting his mother,

Mrs. Rebecca Check–Smith.
After watching these videos, Mark’s face went straight to the floor.
“Mae.”
He lowered his face and gave a deep, disparaging laugh. “You really can’t wait to divorce me.”
It turned out that the phone call he received during the meeting that day was made under such circumstances.
On camera, Mae’s flamboyant and arrogant attitude rubbed him the wrong way, and for a while, he didn’t know whether to be angry or laugh.
More importantly….
He stared at Mae’s face, trying to see any resentment and sadness on her face because of the so–called “illegitimate child,” but there was none.
She was even “considerate” enough to give Jennifer her rightful place, to give this “illegitimate child” its rightful identity.
“Oh! How kind! Mae, you’re so generous!”
Mark was so angry that he slammed the tablet in his hand down on the table.
He didn’t know what he was angry about. He didn’t know whether he was angry that Mae had disgraced his mother and the entire Smith family, or whether he was angry that she couldn’t wait to push him out and give him to another woman.
Only after a long time did he collect himself and press the intercom. “Get someone from PR down
here.”
The PR department, as the external negotiating department of the Smith Corporation, rarely dealt directly with the president. Suddenly, the person in charge was asked to meet the president and was shocked.
After Mark had hung up, he stared at the tablet, waiting for his next move.
With Smith Corporation’s PR tactics, it wasn’t hard to deal with what had happened online. Jennifer was just waiting to clear her name.
“Jennifer, Sammie had already talked to the company. After Mr. Smith’s side clarifies, the company will send out a press release to attract a wave of sympathy for you.”
Sammie was Jennifer’s manager.
They had already planned it out. They would be taking advantage of the heat this time. After the company cleared her name, they would send out a press release, and then buy some internet armies to say that she was innocently involved and was humiliated by Mae as a mistress, etc. They would attract a wave of sympathy for her. In addition, they would let the bad attention of the public turn on
Mae
Ding…
The sound of information popping up sounded. While holding the iPad, her eyes lit up steeply. “Jennifer, quick look. There’s been an action done on Smith’s side.”
“Show me quickly.”

Chapter 76 The Third Party
Jennifer couldn’t wait to pull the iPad out of her assistant’s hand and click on the latest post that the Smith Corporation’s official Facebook account had just published, and under the trending topic: ‘Jennifer interfered in Mae’s marriage, knowing that she’s the third party.
But there was no time to be happy. When Jennifer read the contents of the official post, her smile suddenly stiffened at the corners of her mouth. She originally felt confident, waiting to be rewarded by Jennifer’s assistant, but at this time she also sharply changed the expression on her face
Smith Corporation’s official blog wrote:
[Our president and his wife are not divorced, and the relationship between the president and Miss Bleak is just an ordinary friendship. Please stop the rumors surrounding all parties. We will reserve the right to investigate the impact that the media content has had on Mr. and Mrs Smith]
The official blog didn’t explain too much about Mark and Mae’s current marital status. It just clarified that they were not divorced and warned all parties to stop spreading rumors.
From the beginning to the end, the official post did not show any intention to support Jennifer, and even the last “warning” was only for Mark and Mae.
Jennifer, who was known as Mr. Smith’s scandalous girlfriend and expected to become the wife of a wealthy family, at this moment in the official public post, has become a big joke.
Jennifer’s eyes were filled with disbelief, and the expression on her face changed from the original dismay and shock to a twisted expression.
She hadn’t expected the consequences of her hard planning would actually benefit Mae instead.
The woman who should have been the joke of the entire internet, the outcast of that wealthy family, was now being blatantly protected by Mark.
That’s right, it was Mark who was protecting her.
If this official post was not authorized by Mark, how dare Smith Corporation’s public relations department release it like this?
When Jennifer realized this, she really could not bear it.
Everything she had secretly done and sacrificed over the past four years had become a big joke at
this moment.
“Hahaha. I’m dying of laughter. The faces of Jennifer’s fans are now hurting. They are calling for Mr Smith to come out and give Jennifer a proper name in his family. But the post cleared it up. The married couple is not divorced yet.”
