Chapter 432

“Who is it?”

Robert asked, voice low.

Georgia was obviously the target of this. Even the last leaked photo had only been of Georgia and Sierra, with him absent.

Combine that with how the reporters had chased after Georgia this time, it was clear that he himself wasn’t the priority. Georgia was.

“We traced the IP addresses of the accounts that started the online incidents on several points, and when they started getting active on the internet again today, we finally pinpointed the IP addresses to all being in a single building in the D City east countryside. I sent people over to check and found that several dozen people were working there every day. It’s a small scale group of internet ghostwriters.

“We asked some of the base-level employees about it. They’re responsible for posting comments directing the internet to hate on Mrs. Simpson. We captured the head of the group and forced him to give up the name of the person behind it. According to that person, the culprit’s name is Barney Stone. A bastard son of the Stone family. Has some smarts. Started a medium-sized company in D City. Managed it well.”

“Barney Stone?”

Robert repeated the words. He didn’t remember too much about such a person.

“Send me all information related to Barney Stone. He’s not the one directly behind it. He and I shouldn’t have too many conflicts of interest. There may still be someone else behind him. Have you found anything about who’s supporting him from the shadows?”

“There’s no conflict of interest between the Stone family and the Simpson family. Even the company that Barney was running isn’t in the same line of work as the Simpsons’. But we found that Barney was once college schoolmates with you, sir. As for the rest, we don’t have anything special.”

“Does he have anybody he likes?”

Robert suddenly asked that question. If it wasn’t for conflict of interest, it might be for love. There was no reason to target him or Georgia out of nowhere.

“I haven’t found that out yet, sir. I’ll put people on it right away.”

“Investigate Barney Stone’s love life right now. Notify me of any news.”

Robert hung up, and Ivan chimed in.

“Found anything of value?”

Robert repeated everything he’d just uncovered about Barney Stone to Ivan.

“You know that I’ve lost my past memories now. That Barney Stone is a college schoolmate of mine, but I don’t know if I had any conflicts with him before to cause him to come take revenge on me. This still bears investigating.”

At that, Ivan chuckled.

“You still think you need to investigate? Jason and Jasper went to the same college you did. The three of you were joined at the hip and had to go to the same school. Ask the two of them, and you’ll probably find out if you’d ever fought with Barney, or if you’d had any grudges.”

“That makes sense.”

Robert smiled, and turned to Ivan.

“Go to Georgia’s room and tell her about it for me. I need to go see Jason about Barney, then I’ll look in on her right away.”

Ivan complied and Robert headed right to Jasper’s room.

He’d been once, and this was the second time. Jasper probably wasn’t awake yet.

But Jason was there, so he could ask him too.

Before that, though, Robert gave Elsie a call as he walked.

“Georgia’s woken up. You can take the children to go see her. How are the two kids doing? How’s their mood?”

“They’re not having too much fun and can’t muster too much excitement right now. Both of them are worried about Georgia right now. They’ll probably only relax when they see her.”

“Then please bring them over to the hospital. I’m still busy and I’ll see you later.”

Hanging up, Robert came out in front of Jasper’s room.

Jasper hadn’t woken up yet. Jason and Miranda were in Selena’s room.

Selena was awake and eating dinner. Looked like they were chatting.

When Robert went in, he greeted Selena.

Then Jason spoke up right away.

“Has Georgia not woken up yet?”

“She’s awake. Just woke up. But I’ve got something to ask you. Then we can go see her together.”

“What’s up?”

Jason asked strangely.

“We went to college together, right? A man called Barney Stone was schoolmates with me. Do you know him?”

“I know, but why talk about him all of a sudden? We don’t know each other that well. He hasn’t attracted your attention with anything, right? He’s just a bastard son of the Stones. He has some business talent, but not enough for you to take notice.”

Jason was curious about it, and Robert explained his findings in brief.

“I don’t know what conflicts we’d had in the past, but I’m sure right now that he’s swirling up drama on the internet to target me and Georgia. But I don’t have any memories of the past. Recall for me if the two of us had ever had any grudges, would you?”

“I don’t have too much of an impression of Barney, but I do remember that no matter the association, competition, academic meet, debates or math quizzes or whatnot, any competitive event it was, so long as you were taking part in it, Barney also participated. That’s where I do remember him a little.

“But he never surpassed you. No matter what event it was. Jasper and I even joked that you had two tails. One always coming second, the other always coming third. The one in second was always Eliana. No matter what it was, she’d follow you, as if you had the same interests. You always went for the same competitions, even if it was badminton or tennis, she’d get involved. Of course, you two couldn’t compete directly in those events, but when it came to math quizzes, biology quizzes, pastime events or some other competitions of interest, and there was a top three, you usually took the top spot.

“While Eliana was always in second, if I remember it correctly, the third place usually went to someone called Barney. A lot of people talked about the tangled relationship between the three of you when in reality, you and Barney weren’t even familiar with each other. You didn’t even talk with each other normally. Other than those competitions, you basically had no contact. I don’t feel like there’s a grudge between you. Why would he target you and Georgia online by swirling up drama? Did you bully him when I didn’t know? Such that now he wants revenge?”

At that, Robert shot Jason a cold glance.

Things change, and if I felt like a person was capable and talented, I have no reason to offend them. It can’t be a grudge between us. I suspect it’s got something to do with Eliana.

“Last time with the internet drama, Travis found that it seemed to have something to do with the Warner family, but there was never any direct evidence. You just reminded me. Back then, you said that no matter what it was, Eliana would get involved, and so would Barney. Then the three of us would take the top three most of the time. Do you feel like what Barney’s doing might have something to do with Eliana?”
