Reincarnated As the Enemy's Wife: Married the Rival, Bound by Revenge Chapter 286: A Slap in Their Face

"Co on. Let’s pack our luggage."

"What do you an?"

Eva was still angry about what just happened and didn’t realize Nicholas had co back ho.

"Let’s go."

He took her hand and walked inside the mansion without explaining anything.

An hour later, they were already in a car driving towards the nearby city, Hetland.

At the backseat, there was a flight case and a fluffy white puppy was resting inside.

They brought Haby with them too.

Both Hiltonan and the bordering city Zoravia were port cities, while Hetland was a beautiful seaside city for holiday.

Because Eva was in a bad mood, Nicholas decided to take three days off to take her to an island for holiday.

"Don’t you have to work?"

"I’ve arranged and delegated the work for the future three days so we can enjoy so free ti. Recently, our relationship has made the top page of all sorts of dia. No one will bother us again on a private island."

Eva didn’t expect that Nicholas would own his own property on a private island of Hetland, and there were already a butler and a team of employees waiting for them.

When they arrived, the butler and other employees had prepared everything. All that they needed to do was to move in.

The villa was spacious and the sea was right outside their balcony.

Eva’s heart lit up at the sight of the bright blue sky and golden sand beach.

Haby was also released from his flight case and ran happily around the house.

In the evening, Nicholas set up a special site on his private beach.

Surrounded by flowers, the two of them and their dog enjoyed the night view sitting on the beach. The starry starlight and romantic dim lamps mirrored each other.

The mont was just right when Nicholas kissed Eva on her lips. The air was heating up and their passions had been ignited.

When he pressed her body on the sands, she felt she should stop him. "It’s not appropriate..."

Although they were on a private beach and there was no one else around, she still felt shy getting so intimate with him in the open air.

Nicholas let out a low laugh.

"Are you shy because Haby is watching us?"

Sitting right next to them, Haby was looking at them with its big watery eyes, as if to say, "Why haven’t you kissed yet?"

Eva beca even more embarrassed being watched by the puppy.

"Get up..." said she, pushing him away.

But he pressed her hands on his chest and said, "Don’t move. Just enjoy the mont. It has been a long ti."

As he spoke, he kissed her again passionately.

Days at the beach were especially relaxing and sweet.

Eva felt she had forgotten all her worries at the sight of the boundless sea.

No longer worried about her despicable parents, she truly enjoyed her sweet holiday.

However, no matter how poetic those days were, their stay eventually ca to an end.

Three days later, a phone call brought her back to reality.

It was a call from Ralph, asking her if she had checked the social dia recently.

When she finally logged into her account, negative ssages had exploded her hopage like a bomb.

"Smart Piano? Bullshit! It’s just so ordinary digital synthesizer. What a liar!"

"The notion of AI and big data have been abused too much today. How can a computer teach better than a real teacher?"

"Wake up! The woman is no musician. She’s just so gold digger who scams on consurs with fraudulent products. Real musicians usually live a very humble life."

"She just wants to make money."

Soone spoke for her, "Let’s stay rational. Cyber violence has caused many public figures to fall into the trap of depression. It’s just a report and the product hasn’t even co out yet. There’s no need for such harsh words."

However, rational remarks quickly faded into the swarm of angry comnts.

The haters on the Internet ca in herds, attacking Eva frantically.

"Eva Loraine is cancelled! Say no to Smart Piano!"

"Cancel Eva!"

...

After the report, the Smart Piano received tons of critics and almost no positive comnts.

Eva didn’t take the negative comnts pretty well, feeling indignant.

The situation was quite grave and it kept getting worse. The sa evening, she decided to go back to Hiltonan with Nicholas and Haby.

In the car back ho, she wrote a short passage on her phone after pondering again and again.

Although Ralph had advised her to keep a low profile and not to argue with the netizens, she still felt too aggrieved to remain silent. In the end, she chose to publish a tweet as her answer.

"I don’t know if computers can teach you better than real people. However, if a 600-dollar electric piano, which is already much cheaper than classic pianos, could offer you personalized training programs better than most of the so -called piano schools in the market do, I wouldn’t call it a scam. Whose money did I rip off? Whose interests have I hard?"

Then, she clicked "send".

...

Her new tweet imdiately sparked a new round of discussion.

Her straightforward response comforted her fans greatly.

After several events, she had developed a group of regular fans.

So appreciated her cool aura, while the others admired her talent.

"Eva Smart Piano" had beco a trending topic.

Once her fans ca out to defend her, the haters found a new angle to attack her.

They called her fans brainless kids who couldn’t tell right from wrong.

They also called Eva a shaless fraud with no sense of morality.

In a word, her haters were a bunch of heartless Internet trolls.

...

The night Eva returned to Hiltonan, she and Ralph found a place to discuss the matter right away.

When Nicholas knew that they were going to et at night, he said firmly, "I’m going too."

...

Eva had to let Nicholas co along in the end because he insisted on it.

Ralph was surprised to see Nicholas, but didn’t show it on his face, then began to talk with Eva as if nothing had happened.

However, Nicholas was a little grumpy. He had always found Ralph annoying. It took a man to know another, and Nicholas knew for sure that Eva was special to Ralph.

Despite Nicholas’ bad mood, Eva and Ralph reached an agreent. They decided to roll with the punches and confront the negative comnts directly.

The sa night, Eva published a tweet.

"I’ll respond to your questions with facts. There will be a product conference in three days for Smart Piano Loyal. Please look forward to it."

Although it was already midnight, the news sparked a lively discussion once it was released. There were tons of retweets and all kinds of comnts under her tweet.

Most didn’t expect such a straightforward response from Eva, but haters didn’t change their opinions anyway. Most people still believed it was a fraud, and so even thought the so-called conference was just so publicity hype.

Three days passed and it was ti for the product launch, which was also an opportunity to prove herself to the world.

The product conference took place in the Hiltonan Convention Center. The center was usually used for all kinds of world fairs, such as auto shows and cultural fairs. But today, the whole center was used for one product only, Eva’s Smart Piano.

...

On the day of the conference, the center was packed solid with people.

The parking lot had been saturated and the hall was filled with visitors. So of them were Eva’s fans, but most ca from the dia.

Several elegant piano sets were on display in the exhibit.

Soon, Eva and Ralph began to introduce the product functions to the reporters.

Everything went well at first until a visitor posed a question. "We’ve already known about all the functions you ntioned on the Internet. What we care the most is whether your piano can truly do what you claim it can do," said a man in his thirties.

Eva didn’t know whether he was one of her haters, but she knew most people had the sa doubt about her Smart Piano.

She was already prepared to deal with such questions. She stepped on the stage and took over the microphone. "That’s a good question. Today, we have to honor to invite Professor Rowling, a leading scholar of artificial intelligence in the country, to test our new product, the Smart Piano," said Eva.

Her words made the audiences burst into gasps, and even the reporters were

surprised. So of the reporters were quite experienced and well-connected. They knew Mr. Rowling of the AI industry was a rather mysterious figure. As a famous scholar leading national research projects, he rarely showed up in business activities.

Mr. Rowling was invited by Ralph.

Ralph was born into an intellectual family. His mother was a renowned painter in Aslan, his grandfather a calligrapher, and his grandmother a woman of letters. Ralph himself grew up to be a musician. Mr. Rowling was invited by Ralph’s grandfather on his father’s side. They used to study physics together back in school and went on different paths later. Mr. Rowling beca an engineer while Ralph’s grandfather stayed in academia and beca a physicist.

With Mr. Rowling here, even haters online no longer dared to make negative comnts unscrupulously.
