Doted By The Alpha

* * *

After driving out of the Hymlyn Estate Paul drove to the Sullens planning to talk to Mr. And Mrs. Sullen. He was planning to persuade the Sullens to host a press conference to deny the allegations towards Daniella. A public statement won't be as sincere as a press conference.

" Paul, what are you doing here? How about Daniella? " Mrs. Sullen asked, concerned. She hasn't seen Daniella since she rushed out yesterday.

" Auntie, Daniella is okay. She's at my place. I'm here because I want to help you with this problem. Daniella is innocent, she was framed. We only need to show her innocence. I will help you with that but you need to arrange a press conference for Daniella. " Paul said, eager to prove his lover's innocence.

" My Daniella is so blessed to have someone like you. George released a public statement yesterday but it didn't clear anything at all. This had already affected the company. If this continues it would be difficult for us to get back in track. " Mrs. Sullen worriedly.

" Don't worry auntie. The truth will reveal soon and Daniella's name will be cleared. I promise you that. " Paul assured, he was confident he could unfold the truth. After stating what he wanted, Paul soon left and went to the only person he thought could help him at this moment.

After driving for 20 minutes, Paul arrived at his destination. An abandoned building not far downtown city. The building was only 4 stories and from the looks of it, you would think it was haunted but actually the inside was remodeled into condominium type with skateboard range where the first floor and second floor were merged into one. Paul climb up to the 4th floor where his friend is residing. A computer genius and a crazy hacker, Paul knew this because he had seen him work before. He met the man accidentally when he was chased after by gang members who wanted to kill him. Paul helped him and since then they were somewhat friends.

" Long time no see. You look good. " a young man who looks the same age as Paul talked without turning around from his number of computers. He was tapping on his keyboard, fast that you wouldn't know if his tapping it for fun or he's actually doing something.

" you're looking good yourself. " Paul replied walking closer. He was still the same as before, always on his computer.

" Watch your steps," he warned. Paul looked at the unimaginable amount of wires laying around the floor. It's like what he'd on movies but his friend's were a lot more unorganized.

" I know what you came here for... I can't help you, " The man said, still looking at his computer and didn't glance even once at Paul but he already knew what the Alpha wanted!?

" I haven't said what I wanted yet. You're the only one who can help me find cl--" Paul didn't finish his words after being stopped.

" You came here in hopes I could find clues to prove your girlfriend's innocence!?" The young man asked. Paul's mouth gape in surprise at first and later on nodded at the question.

" Yes, how did you know? "

" Social Media," he said like it was common sense.

" Anyway, I can't help you find clues. "

" You said when I needed help I could ask you. " Paul said sounding like accusing. He was already desperate with the time limit he had with his father. A couple of seconds delay would lead them to bankruptcy. The man on the computer stopped tapping on his keyboard as a red sign saying Access Denied flashed into the screens simultaneously.

" *Sigh* See this? " the man finally turned his swiveling chair and a logo flashed saying "ZI" was on the computer screen. Paul looked at the logo confused.

" That logo was left on all devices and accounts your girlfriend owned or secretly owned. It means someone had gone through her files and that someone left a mark. The person also left a security firewall. I can't go on through her files and I can't trace the person who had done it. You've seen earlier I've been denied to access the first firewall. I've been battling the man behind this logo since last night and I was just defeated. I've never encountered someone better than me in hacking." The man explained, amused rather than angry or frustrated. When the Mo Empire released a statement that they hired someone skilled on computer, the man took that as a challenge. And when he discovered this was the case, he knew his friend would come and seek his help.

"B-but without you, I can't clear her name," Paul said frustratingly.

" Mr. Hymlyn, don't judge a person's character based only on what you see or else you'll find yourself being stabbed at the back without knowing. "

" What are you talking about!? " Paul asked but the man didn't reply and walked to his printer picking papers that have already printed.

" To honor my promise, although I can't help you find clues to clear her name. I took the liberty to make one for you. It's these files, no one would question its validity I assure you. But everything written here is fake, I made it all up." He said giving the files to Paul. He then took another one from the side to give it to Paul as well.

" Also, although I didn't get the chance to go through her files the person behind the logo did give me something. It is for you to believe it or not. Now off you go, I'm still battling him. " the man walked back to his chair and started typing crazily again. Paul wanted to ask more but he left afraid he would delay things even more.

Paul immediately went back to the Sullens and this time Daniella was there. Talking with her parents.

" Mother, I won't go to this conference. I don't need to clear myself because I am innocent. If the public sees me being defensive they would only mock me and be more suspicious. " Daniella insisted. Daniella refused to go into a press conference in order to clear her name because whatever she will be saying in the press would possibly be used against her in the future. She still has plans and if she accidentally says something in public like what she did at her grandfather's birthday then it would be a lot harder when the time comes. When she's finally able to make Mo Laotian hers. She wouldn't be able to justify herself against herself.

" It's okay, I think the evidence I've got would be enough to clear Daniella's name. If she doesn't want a press conference then it's fine. " Paul said walking towards the three. Daniella smiled sweetly and immediately hugged Paul.

" Thank you. I know you would understand me the most. " Daniella smiled after saying this and then kissed the Alpha softly on his lips briefly.

" Are you okay now? After I release this evidence you would be free again. " Paul said lovingly handing the files to Mr. Sullen. Daniella was curious about how Paul got such files but he smiles anyway knowing that she isn't doomed. The Alpha doesn't seem like he discovered something he shouldn't.

" Thank you. You have helped the Sullen's this time. I have truly made a great decision to let you two marry. " Mr. Sullen said gratefully before rushing towards his study and send the files to the company's PR manager via Foxx Machine.

Later on that day. A public statement was released again by the Sullen Company proving Daniella's innocence. It was said that her account was hacked with the following proof. As for why she had the photo was because someone wanted to threaten her into giving up her relationship with Paul Hymlyn.

Some people believed but some also suspected. If she was framed, why didn't she cleared herself the first day the scandal released and let everyone misunderstood. She had a fiance but she let something like having a secret relationship with Mo Laotian misunderstood her. Was it because she also wanted it!? But perhaps it was also reasonable, Who would not want it anyway? Mo Laotian is a capable man, extremely handsome and a billionaire. Even just for a little, who would deny it?

Most of the people had calmed down a little, there are still few who didn't believe her and doubted her but it was mostly taken under control than before. It was still a couple of hours so maybe after a week or so this would completely disappear in people's minds.

" I don't think the Mo Empire would be so cruel towards her if she didn't really do something. I mean it's the Mo Empire! Mr. Mo Laotian isn't called the Emperor if it wasn't for nothing. I don't believe the Mo Empire didn't investigate this matter thoroughly. "

" Has anyone thought maybe the proof given by the Sullen's are fake? Lol just saying. "

" Excuse me, Ms. Daniella is an angel and she doesn't have enemies. I believe the Mo Empire had made a mistake this time. Someone is just truly jealous of our Queen. "

" Yeah, she's the nicest person I've ever met. She would never do such a thing. "

" I don't know about you guys but I think Mr. Mo Laotian is just protecting someone. I saw a photo on Instagram with Mr. Mo and with someone in a grocery store. At first I didn't believe it's him but after comparing the photo with my mom's magazine with Mr. Mo in it they look exactly the same. Sadly the person he was with was busy with the groceries so the picture only captured his back. "

" to the commenter above: is that true? Please send me the link, pretty please. "

" OH MY GOSH! This is true, my sister was there and Mr. Mo was super sweet towards the person he was with. My sister said they look extremely good together. "

" I was there, that was yesterday. I believe that was Mr. Mo, I saw a couple of huge looking men following the two stealthy. They were obviously bodyguards. Who else would have that kind of bodyguards aside from Mr. Mo? "

In the middle of a discussion about Daniella's issue, another topic suddenly raised. It's about Mo Laotian dating someone. It started small but after people sharing links and creating new discussions it immediately became a hot topic only after a couple of hours it immediately covered Daniella's scandal like it didn't happen. People from the media was doing everything to find photos about the mysterious person Mo Laotian was dating.

In a certain magazine and newspapers publishing company, a man received a photo from his brother with clearly Mo Laotian on it, he was with someone carrying a baby arriving from abroad, Mo Laotian was holding the other person protectively and lovingly until they went inside a heavily tainted car. There were a total of 4 photos but all didn't reveal the other person's identity. The person was either looking down or being blocked by Mo Laotian. The only thing clear about this photo is, in fact, Mo Laotian had possibly married secretly and had a child that's why he wanted to clear the scandal immediately. After seeing the photo the small-time journalist immediately reported to the head chief editor.

This time their company had received something big that might be good or bad to the company but despite all the risk, the head editor was extremely happy. Mo Laotian despises having his name published in newspapers if it's not from the business section. But with the information he had, the Editor has greater views, if he doesn't take this opportunity then it would be useless in the future. So he specially asked the journalist who gave the photo to make an article about it and they might be releasing it tomorrow. He also asked someone to make small discussions and articles on famous entertainment sites.

Just as the editor hoped. The topic had become the number one most search topic in every news and entertainment site on all social media sites. People were really curious about Mo Laotian's private life but that's to be expected.
