Ava Sterling saw one of the comnts, her smile disappeared, and her eyebrows furrowed.
Hayden?
Poe Vaughn’s mother’s company?
Ava Sterling hadn’t heard of this na much; it was the first ti she’d heard it, extrely unfamiliar.
Ava Sterling spoke directly: "Lauren Howell, look up Hayden, find out about this company."
Lauren was watching Ava Sterling, observing the changes in her expression, clearly pleased by this news.
Obviously, Ava Sterling was eager to see the Rhodes Family in this state.
A lot of people wanted to see it.
But Ava Sterling was different. She didn’t care before, but now she did.
She cared a lot.
Upon hearing Ava Sterling’s words, Lauren imdiately said, "Okay."
She was about to leave but paused, looking at Ava Sterling, puzzled, "Ava, you don’t know about Hayden?"
Ava Sterling clicked on the comnt calling for Poe Vaughn to take back his mother’s company and looked at the replies below.
The comnt had already received thousands of replies.
Each reply was in support, joining in, questioning why a company founded by the mother should be given to a scumbag and a bitch, and even support the child of the scumbag and the bitch.
Unfair.
Everyone supported Poe Vaughn in taking this opportunity to reclaim his mother’s company, Hayden.
Even though with Poe Vaughn’s current status and wealth, he didn’t need such a company, this one was different; his mother created it.
No matter how small, it must be reclaid!
Hearing Lauren’s words, Ava Sterling frowned, visibly displeased: "If I knew, would I ask you to check?"
Ava Sterling gave Lauren a side glance, clearly implying "isn’t that obvious?"
Lauren was montarily at a loss, "Ava, this Hayden is Hayden Rhodes’s company, created by Poe Vaughn’s mother together with Hayden Rhodes and Ronia Ackerly back then."
"The three of them founded it together, as far as I know, Poe Vaughn’s mother played the major role, with Hayden Rhodes and Ronia Ackerly secondary."
"If we must rank them, Poe Vaughn’s mother was the primary founder, Hayden Rhodes the second, and Ronia Ackerly the third."
"Poe Vaughn’s mother had a great talent for business. From what I’ve learned, she was remarkable; without her, the company wouldn’t have succeeded, nor would it have grown so quickly within a few years."
"Everything is inseparable from Poe Vaughn’s mother. It’s said she was known as a genius in the business world at the ti."
"Now, Poe Vaughn is sweeping through the business world, clearly inherited his mother’s business acun, surpassing her."
"And the na of the company, Hayden, was derived from the ’Ning’ from Poe Vaughn’s mother’s na and the ’Zhou’ from Hayden Rhodes’s na. After Poe Vaughn’s mother divorced his father and divorced Hayden Rhodes later, Hayden only had a few years of brilliance, before stabilizing and then declining in recent years."
"By this year, the market value of Hayden has shrunk significantly."
Lauren spoke a lot, leaving Ava Sterling dazed.
How did this woman know so much?
Ava Sterling imdiately asked, "How do you know all this?"
She didn’t know, so how did Lauren know so clearly?
Ava Sterling was full of questions, clearly unable to understand.
Lauren sighed, shrugged, and looked at Ava with a face of helplessness: "I like gossip, all kinds, especially this kind about wealthy families, it’s particularly interesting."
"The Vaughn Family and the Rhodes Family made such big news back then, I was obviously curious and went to find out."
"And these things aren’t secrets, hidden things. A little effort will uncover them."
"..."
Ava Sterling was speechless.
This woman, she always thought she was into romantic gossip, didn’t expect her to know all this.
But, what did her last sentence an?
Just a bit of effort ans it was effortless for her?
Ava Sterling turned dark, holding her phone, and spoke faintly: "Seems you’re quite idle."
Lauren: "..."
The person who was confident about their hobby just monts ago suddenly collapsed.
Lauren imdiately said, "I’m doing this for you too. Knowing more is beneficial."
"Look at the circles you move in, with all these wealthy people. If you don’t know so gossip and accidentally offend soone, that wouldn’t be good."
Lauren had a face full of sincere intentions, Ava Sterling chuckled twice, handed the phone back to Lauren, and directly said, "What else is there, spill it all."
After speaking, Ava Sterling leaned back on the sofa, crossing her arms, looking at Lauren with a face of ’you better tell everything.’
She wanted to know these things she hadn’t known before.
Regarding Poe Vaughn, that moody person, knowing more about him was all benefit and no harm.
Lauren knew Ava was genuinely interested in Poe Vaughn’s parents’ affairs and quickly said, "I heard Poe Vaughn’s mother, Hayden Rhodes, and Ronia Ackerly went to the sa school, and the three had a good relationship."
"Poe Vaughn’s mother and Ronia Ackerly were even closer; they were best friends."
"And Ronia Ackerly’s family conditions weren’t as good as Poe Vaughn’s mother’s. It’s said her nature was always gentle, simply put, a green tea girl—a delicate, seemingly naive beauty."
"Poe Vaughn’s mother was straightforward and took great care of Ronia Ackerly. If anyone bullied her, Poe Vaughn’s mother would stand in front of her."
"To put it bluntly, one was scheming, the other innocent."
"Hayden Rhodes was a prominent figure in school back then too, good-looking, from a decent family, gentle character, without a single flaw to pick on, and Poe Vaughn’s mother was also, it’s said she was the campus belle, beautiful, cheerful, kind-hearted."
"The two of them being together, no one was surprised, seeing them as a perfect match made in heaven. It’s said Hayden Rhodes was a good person."
"No matter whether it’s teachers, friends, or colleagues, everyone spoke highly of him—not the typical scumbag."
"When it ca out that he cheated, and especially with Ronia Ackerly, everyone was shocked, finding it hard to believe, thinking Hayden Rhodes wasn’t like that."
"About this, I also found it puzzling, checked for a long ti."
Ava Sterling listened to Lauren sentence by sentence, and an old book gradually unfolded before her eyes. As the pages turned, fra by fra, a story unfolded before her, and she watched intently, her brow gradually furrowing, her expression turning serious.
Poe Vaughn was outstanding. Since she’d interacted with him, while she didn’t claim to fully understand him, she did have so grasp.
Often, she could get a sense of his thoughts.
And having been in the modeling world for many years, she could discern whether a man was good or bad.
Not to say her eyes were extra discerning, but nine out of ten tis she was accurate.
Poe Vaughn’s nature was different from ordinary people, perhaps due to the lack of parents since childhood, making him cold by nature, not given to much expression, with deeply buried thoughts, impossible to read.
However, being brought up by the Vaughn Family, personally tutored by the grandmother, she saw excellent manners in Poe Vaughn, character, and values.
Especially the noble aura of a grand family, not sothing ordinary people have.
He lacked the faults common in other n, such as being unfaithful, lingering amidst flowers, or being hedonistic.
He didn’t have that.
Not even a bit.
Of course, they say traits are genetic, children may inherit both good and bad qualities from their parents. But Poe Vaughn seed not to inherit any of his father’s bad traits, only their good ones.
Business acun, superior looks, integrity.
He seed born picking only his parents’ rits.
But, it’s impossible for a person to be flawless.
Especially when Poe Vaughn’s father was labeled a scumbag, it naturally made people wonder if he might have inherited his father’s scumbag traits?
After all, genetics is a frightening thing.
Therefore, Ava wasn’t certain about this. She’d only known Poe Vaughn for two or three months, a short ti, and couldn’t predict the future.
But at least now, the impression Poe Vaughn gave her was not of a scumbag, not the kind who would cheat.
So, she wondered if Poe Vaughn’s father was set up by Ronia Ackerly back then?
