Chapter 1031 Public Opinion

Watching Wei Yumeng and Zhan Mohan leave, Catherine was still somewhat unwilling. Song Lijun was too easy to talk to.

However, this did not affect her plan at all. She took the opportunity to open her phone and sent a message to a certain account, and thus the plan officially began.

Kai's sentence was nearing its end. In two days, he would regain his freedom. He had found it strange these past few days that Catherine, who always visited him, had not come.

Just as he was waiting anxiously, a stranger applied to see him.

"Who are you?" Kai was full of vigilance towards the person in front of him, as he could not afford to be careless even now.

The person directly said to Kai, "I am someone by Miss Catherine's side. She sent me to find you. This should have been her coming in person, but some accident occurred, so she couldn't. Miss also said she was very sorry that she couldn't personally pick you up."

Now, Kai's mind was only on Catherine's accident. He was panicked, as Catherine was carrying their child.

"Linlin, what exactly happened?"

The person appeared to hesitate, "Although Miss told me not to tell you, I think you have a right to know."

Hearing this, Kai's mood plummeted. Could it be true...

He already had the worst idea in his mind.

"Miss Catherine was tricked into going out by Wei Yumeng yesterday, and it resulted in a miscarriage."

"What?" Kai immediately stood up from his chair. "Our child is gone?"

The person also looked distressed, "Although we sent Miss Catherine to the hospital in time, it was ultimately too late."

Kai swayed violently, then slowly sat down, no longer knowing how to react.

Although he had guessed this worst-case scenario before, he had still desperately hoped it wouldn't happen. But why did it happen nonetheless?

"In short, I have delivered the message. I hope Mr. Kai can accept my condolences."

After speaking, the person turned and left, leaving Kai sitting there blankly, motionless.

"Linlin, why... why is our child gone so soon? I didn't even have a chance to see him..."

Kai couldn't help but cover his face with his hands and burst into tears.

However, this emotion did not last long. More than that, it turned into hatred for Wei Yumeng.

"Wei Yumeng, no matter why you killed our child, I will not let you go!"

Wei Yumeng had told Zhan Mohan everything that had truly happened that day. Zhan Mohan also believed that Catherine was the mastermind behind it, likely intending to ruin Wei Yumeng's reputation or even get her arrested by the police.

Wei Yumeng was anxious and took the initiative to ask Zhan Mohan, "Mohan, how is the investigation going?"

Zhan Mohan had reached a dead end. The so-called bodyguards at the Feng family that day were nowhere to be found.

They had managed to find out Song Lijun's whereabouts. Song Lijun was not kidnapped at all, but had simply gone on a trip with a friend.

According to Song Lijun, she was at her friend's house when she received a call saying Catherine was missing. She rushed back and eventually found Catherine and Wei Yumeng in Jinling Mountain.

The only evidence they could find now was proof that Catherine and Wei Yumeng had gone out together, then went to Jinling Mountain, and then Catherine's child was lost.

Hearing Zhan Mohan's silence, Wei Yumeng felt a pang of sadness. "Mohan, I'm sorry, I've caused you so much trouble."

Zhan Mohan sighed, "This is nothing. The current investigation has encountered some problems, but these are not major issues. I can't tell you yet because there's no result, but don't overthink things, okay?"

"Mhm." Wei Yumeng agreed, but how could she not overthink?

As expected, things didn't end there. Soon, the incident involving Wei Yumeng and Catherine appeared in major media outlets, and online commenters seized upon something interesting again.

Wei Yumeng and Catherine had previously made headlines due to an incident involving Zhan Mohan, which had caused quite a stir.

Now, those netizens dug up everything from the past and exaggerated it.

"This Wei Yumeng, despite being a wealthy wife, is truly ruthless."

"Exactly. It's because she has Mr. Zhan backing her that she can act so recklessly."

"See what I said earlier? I told you Wei Yumeng wasn't a good woman, and now it's proven."

"Also, we all misunderstood Catherine back then. We thought Catherine was the mastermind."

Seeing these comments, Wu Yi felt like she was about to explode. No matter what, she couldn't let Wei Yumeng see them.

But the more she tried to hide it, the more easily Wei Yumeng would notice something was amiss.

"What are you doing?"

Indeed, Wei Yumeng's voice appeared behind Wu Yi.

Wu Yi quickly hid her phone. "Ms. Wei, you're here. I was just browsing entertainment news."

Wei Yumeng looked at Wu Yi's flustered expression and sighed, "Alright, no need to hide it. I've actually already seen those reports this morning."

"Then how does Ms. Wei plan to handle this?"

This kind of thing was not the first or second time for Wei Yumeng, and it seemed to be happening more frequently lately. Either Zhan Mohan was in the headlines, or she herself was, and she had become somewhat accustomed to it.

"These things will pass. You don't need to worry about it. Once the public's interest wanes, it will be fine."

Wu Yi nodded, but still couldn't help but look at Wei Yumeng with concern.

She didn't believe Wei Yumeng could truly take it so lightly. Even she herself was somewhat angered, so how could Wei Yumeng pretend as if nothing had happened?

However, her anxiety here was useless. She decided to help Wei Yumeng by leaving some positive comments online after work.

Initially, Wei Yumeng thought these reports would just fade away. However, she didn't expect the matter to continue to ferment. Some netizens even claimed to have been hiking near Jinling Mountain that day and captured the scene.

It was precisely the footage of Wei Yumeng pushing her hand and Catherine falling.

Because the person claimed it was accidentally recorded, the footage was slightly blurry, which didn't arouse suspicion from others.

And all the public opinion immediately turned towards Wei Yumeng.
