My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 468 - The Impact Of Fake News



Lilia looked at the man\'s back with a worried expression, she straightened her clothes before getting up and walked to his side.

She lifted her head, looking at the expression that her husband had for a moment, then stretched out her hand to his cheek. "Is the Widjaya family in trouble?"

Lilia only heard a few words, but it was enough to arouse her suspicion since she and her husband had a sudden, too ridiculous situation that occured on the same day to be said as a mere coincidence.

The man turned slightly to the side, revealing the top three buttons of his shirt opened along with his lazy face.

The darkness in his eyes gradually receded and in a short time as he regained his usual tenderness. He raised his hand to smooth the hair that was on his forehead and his voice was soft as he said, "Did you hear my conversation earlier?"

"More or less, but I don\'t know the details. The word tax evasion is clear enough to me though," Lilia said with a serious face. She didn\'t want to eavesdrop, but Kenny\'s voice was too loud, so blame him!

The man raised his thin lips, his handsome face was no different. He casually buttoned his shirt and his tone was cynical when he replied, "Several financial magazines accused the company being run by the Widjaya family of such an act. The article also questioned the Widjaya\'s financial report last year. Something was wrong."

Lilia was stunned, feeling something really had gone wrong. "What financial magazine dares to do that? All the Widjaya family companies are legally registered, aren\'t all financial reports published on the stock exchange\'s website? If they routinely publish information on a trusted, official website, who could ever commit evasion tax like that?"

Hearing Lilia\'s rhetorical question, the man chuckled. He rubbed his wife\'s cheek with his fingertips as he shook his head and sighed. "You even understand better than them. Obviously they did it on purpose."

\'Is this a compliment?\' Lilia just blinked.

When she felt the tip of her husband\'s warm finger, Lilia immediately slapped him angrily. "I still have a lot of common sense!"

After she finished speaking, she held back her anger as her eyes looked serious. "What do you want to do now? If you act, what will the Widjaya family do? Do you want to retaliate or make a clarification?"

The man looked at her slightly tense expression and calmly said, "The longer we wait for an answer from the Widjaya family, more people will not be able to remain sitting still when they hear chaotic news like this."

These words meant a lot and Lilia\'s mind cleared up after thinking for a moment.

To openly question the annual reports published on the stock exchange... This approach was utterly foolish.

This financial magazine was just the tip of the iceberg.

...

At this meeting, right after 6.30 pm, Jean was standing on the balcony outside smoking.

Facing the darkness of the night sky, he stood tall and looked lonely. He supported himself on the cylindrical fence with one hand and was surrounded by a shallow white mist.

Lilia sat on the sofa near the window and stared at him. A few seconds later, she took out her cellphone and opened her social media.

She caught a glimpse of the currently popular search pages, and it was no surprise that news of the attempted murder she had planned on Sara Hartanto and the news about the Widjaya family\'s tax evasion were on the front lines.

She browsed through popular tags and didn\'t hesitate any longer. As she looked determined, she clicked on the topic of tax evasion by the Widjaya family. There was not much content on the page, and most of them were comments from people who were easily consumed by hoaxes.

But many of them had reposted so-called compilation articles that exposed the Widjaya family\'s tax evasion.

She clicked on the contents and took a quick glance, only to feel that she was looking at a super funny joke and laughing. At first glance, this article criticized the Widjaya family\'s monopolistic behavior in the real estate industry during the past two years, as if the writer was a savior of society with high integrity.

Lilia didn\'t read carefully, and after a few glances, she closed the article and sent the other party a set of reporting procedures.

The Widjaya family\'s market share in Surabaya real estate was indeed very high.

But all this happened because the owner trusted the Widjaya surname, and it had nothing to do with monopoly.

The writer along with the editor must have been new to the journalism world, no wonder no one had ever heard of this financial magazine\'s name.

She scowled and returned to the search page after she filed the finished report. Lilia then clicked on the headline "The truth behind the Sara Hartanto accident."

Compared to the popularity of "Widjaya Family\'s alleged tax evasion case", the comments under the discussion in this popular search had exceeded 150,000.

Netizens from all walks of life demonstrated their magical power. Some questioned, some waited for the truth, and many fell into the fake news.

Most of these people were fans of Sara Hartanto and William Anggara.

There were five people involved in this topic— Lilia, William, Sara, and two people she had not met for a long time namely Rina Calya and Shirley Pierre.

Among them, an entertainment account aptly showed that Lilia was a woman with strong personality and strong support.

At the same time, the account attached articles regarding all major events related to Lilia and the other four in the past six months, and even started a poll.

The first was about the relationship between her, Sara and William. This article accused Lilia as still loving William, asking Sara to leave him so she could be with him again. And when Sara blamed Lilia for the breakdown of their relationship, Lilia \'gifted her\' by putting her in the hospital through a planned car accident.

The second was that Rina Calya, a, ex-model from the company, was at odds with Lilia. She was later jailed for hurting others and had not yet come out. Lilia came out victorious again.

The third was about the heat between Shirley Pierre and Lilia during their filming. Shirley\'s cell phone was miraculously stolen and the perpetrator leaked her chat history. The content brought the downfall of her career and tarnished her reputation. After filming, Shirley was forced to temporarily withdraw from the movie industry.

From all the facts above, was Lilia Pangestu a savage who justified everything to be able to stand on??

There were 5 million netizens who voted for [No], while less than 200,000 voted for [Yes].

When Lilia saw this post that had been forwarded nearly 100,000 times, her eyes were shocked. Had she done so much in the last six months?

Sure enough, in such an advanced era as now, anything could be searched off the internet in a mere split seconds.

These people used social media to search for gossip and hot topics throughout the day. They even had a long discussion about Lilia\'s attitude all this time. How crazy was the impact of this hoax news?

When Lilia stared at this vote, she accidentally stretched out her fingertips and was about to click on the [No] option in the voting column.

However, her thumb suddenly stopped!

\'Forget it, never mind.\'

Sara\'s car accident had nothing to do with her, and it\'s natural for her to back off.

In a heated search, Lilia\'s fans angrily denied other netizens\' suspicions. And a familiar figure came back into view. The last time they commented was 20 minutes ago.

Lilia and her husband were not divorced (so sad): You people must\'ve consumed too much formaldehyde, so no wonder y\'all is stupid! The article is nothing but a crappy mess! Even a boy like me knows that my goddess was framed. Y\'all only dare to insult and accuse my goddess from the screen, huh? Get ready then. Don\'t cry when the police come to your door and drag you out to apologize! Bah, y\'all are a bunch of naive people!

The person behind the account with the lengthy name was Reynold!

Netizen_MahaBenar: I think the analysis of this article is correct and reasonable. Are you afraid that the wretched nature of the person you call your goddess will be known to the public? Haha, the real world is not as beautiful as on social media bro!

Lilia and her husband are not divorced (so sad): @Reply to Netizen_MahaBright: First of all, make sure you use your brain before you talk.. Second of all, how could Lilia Pangestu do all of that? If you are jealous just say it, don\'t just play keyboard warrior and continue to spread hoaxes. Do you want me to report you to the police for defamation????
