Chapter 376
Quantavius and Ronald had everything planned out, but Aubree just refused to play by the book.
Not only did she show zero signs of panic, but reporters also caught her out shopping for Christmas goods with Bowen.
It was not that Bowen didn’t want to help her–he just didn’t step in because Aubree never brought it up.
Aubree hired some paid posters and low–follower marketing accounts to stir up discussion, having thern analyze the GrabCheap incident from a bystander’s point of view. They pointed out that the whole thing came out of nowhere. It was almost like someone had been plotting it for ages.
In just a short time, the buzz stayed hot, and even the evidence they put together looked airtight.
A person commented online: [Doesn’t it seem like someone’s jealous and trying to take down GrabCheap?]
Another person wrote: [I’ve been shopping there all the time. I bought food, daily stuff, and never had any problems.]
A third person wrote: [Honestly, is this really all the platform’s fault? With so many sellers, a few bad ones slipping through isn’t all on them, right?]
Someone else said: [All those shops just closed up out of nowhere. That makes them look super suspicious.]
These voices started to surface, but in the face of the relentless onslaught from the masses and paid posters, they seemed barely noticeable.
Quantavius didn’t take these voices seriously either. In his eyes, they were just clutching at straws.
Bree Technology’s lack of action these days had made him drop his guard. Just like Ronald said, Bowen was just waiting for Aubree to mess up and had no intention of stepping in. Aubree was out of options and could only watch things fall apart.
All of GrabCheap’s financing and partnership deals were dead in the water, user downloads nosedived, uninstalls multiplied exponentially, and its valuation kept sinking.
Quantavius sneered, “So that’s all they’ve got?”
He had barely lifted a finger, and GrabCheap was already teetering on the edge of collapse.
Watching the stock prices swing, he was grinning from ear to ear. The crisis at GrabCheap was even dragging down Bree Technology’s stock price. It was a nice little bonus he hadn’t expected.
“Let’s turn up the heat,” Quantavius said, his eyes dark and cold. This still wasn’t enough.
Aubree had dragged the Yurchenko family through hell, and now his sister was too afraid to even step outside. He wanted Aubree to end up like a rat in the street, with everyone out to get her.
“Pull some strings and get someone higher up to look into Bree Technology. A company that big is bound to have shady business,” he said.
He refused to believe that after this, Bree Technology could possibly survive.
Honestly, Quantavius was out of options. He could only fabricate rumors and weaponize public opinion against Aubree. If those people actually had the guts, they would’ve already taken them to court and demanded compensation.
They were not the ones actually selling the stuff, so no matter how big things got, if the authorities came knocking, all they could really check was their taxes.
Quantavius had assumed that with a company as massive as Bree Technology, there had to be some dirt to dig up. But to his surprise, this move actually ended up restoring quite a bit of Bree Technology’s reputation.
When the results of the investigation were made public, it actually made some people waver and start to have second thoughts.
A person commented online: [Is a company like this some heartless business that would do anything for money, even if it means hurting people?]
Another person wrote: [I don’t care what anyone else says. Every time I had a problem with something I bought, GrabCheap

always gave me a refund, no questions asked.]
Someone else said: [Same here. I was arguing with a seller, and customer service just jumped in and refunded me on the spot, no hassle at all.]
This made Quantavius so mad he could practically spit blood. Ronald kept pushing him, “Come on, push harder–make sure Bree Technology goes down before Christmas.
“It’s almost Christmas. Our family deserves to be together again.”
Quantavius threw all caution to the wind. “Get those patients to block the entrance of Bree Technology. Aren’t some of them in critical condition, about to die? Pay their families to bring the bodies over and stage a protest.”

He just couldn’t believe that with chaos like this, Aubree would still be able to clean up the mess.
Aubree had been waiting for Quantavius to finally snap and make his move.
As soon as she found out that Quantavius had sent his assistant to contact those troublemaking patients again, she immediately headed to Südlichen Strand.
