Chapter 553:

Just as the public was openly condemning Hayley and expressing deep sympathy for the victims of the car accident four years ago, the patriarch of the Morgan family released a personal statement.

In his capacity as head of the family, he harshly denounced Hayley for her outrageous actions and declared that the Morgan family would fully cooperate with law enforcement to uncover the truth of what had happened.

The statement was a clear public declaration that the Morgan family was cutting all ties with Hayley. This way, even if Hayley had done something unforgivable that sparked public outrage, it would have nothing to do with the Morgan family.

“The Morgan family patriarch is so impartial! He’s a role model for us all!”

“I heard the patriarch used to think highly of Hayley. For him to release a statement like this, he must be completely disappointed in her, right?”

“I just hope Hayley confesses soon, goes back to prison, and really thinks about what she’s done.”

It was clear that netizens were overwhelmingly supportive of the patriarch’s statement. They believed Hayley had been abandoned by everyone and that a life in prison was all that awaited her.

The conference room at Pioneer Group was so silent you could hear the breathing of the three women present.

A cold glint flashed in Emely’s eyes, fury threatening to erupt in her chest.

Even the ever-composed Violet felt a surge of indignation on Hayley’s behalf.

After returning to the Morgan family, Hayley had brought a wealth of resources with her, including major projects with the Evans Group and Pioneer Group — all top-tier collaborations. But now, for the sake of the family’s interests, the patriarch had not only failed to protect this key benefactor but had kicked her while she was down. It was despicable.

Hayley shifted slightly in her seat, a cold smile playing on her lips. “I thought the patriarch would handle this more tactfully, that he wouldn’t be so ruthless. I never expected him to cut me off so cleanly.”

“Hayley, what’s our next move? Is it time to act?”

Hayley nodded. “It’s time to fight back. First, let’s hit them with something they won’t see coming.”

Emely’s eyes lit up, her frustration vanishing. “Perfect. I can’t wait. I’ll go tell the PR team to get started right away.”

With that, she rushed out eagerly.

Violet watched Emely go, then turned to Hayley. “Miss Morgan, what do you need me to do?”

“Contact Brent and his son. Have them put pressure on Harold. Also, have Willie use his connections to push Allie and Luna into the spotlight.”

Violet’s eyes brightened. “I’ll get right on it,” she said.

Although she didn’t fully understand Miss Morgan’s plan, she could already imagine the chaos that would erupt within the Morgan Group once these people started making their moves.

Meanwhile, Emmalyn returned to Harold’s office, where Paula and Karin were already waiting.

“Well done,” Emmalyn said the moment she walked in, complimenting their livestream performance. “The public is on your side now, sympathizing with you.”
