Chapter 103: Public Opinion Fermenting
Audrey quickly clicked on it and saw a netizen say in the comments section, “When the two actresses were acting, the expression in their eyes didn’t seem like they were acting. Could it be that they really have a grudge?”
For a moment, the public opinion turned to the personal grudge between Audrey and Elena.
Soon, some people who distorted the truth appeared on Weibo. They swore that they had been on the production team of “Goddess” and even said that they had seen with their own eyes that Audrey often found trouble with Elena. Elena had a gentle personality and had been avoiding Audrey’s bullying and so on.
The matter was getting more and more ridiculous. Even the company that was working with Audrey had called to discuss what to do next.
Audrey found this matter unreasonable. “There’s nothing between Elena and me.”
The company said, “It’s no longer a matter of revenge. The role you’re playing now is already more sensitive. If you don’t do a good PR job, it will affect you greatly.”
Audrey believed that she had done nothing wrong.
She thought for a moment and said, “Let’s do public relations in a few days. Hasn’t the company always wanted traffic? Let the public opinion ferment for a while longer. I’ll come forward to clarify in the end.”
For the sake of profit, the company agreed.
In the next few days, Audrey’s company maintained a silent attitude. Many people ran to the company’s Weibo page and asked if Audrey had really bullied others in the production team, but no one came out to explain.
The netizens’ guesses instantly became bolder. There were even people who went to Audrey’s Weibo and said that she was just a vicious and bad woman. The role of Martha was simply tailor-made for her. They even said that her character was extremely bad and she should get out of the entertainment industry.
Audrey didn’t want to come out and clarify for the time being. She was basically certain that someone was deliberately leading the public opinion and slandering her.
Who could it be?
However, Audrey quickly received an answer.
On a Sunday morning, Elena, who was the center of public opinion, suddenly changed her usual silent state and updated her Weibo.
[There’s no such thing as bullying. We just don’t see eye to eye because of certain matters. Everyone, please don’t be misled by the Internet. I sincerely hope that I can live peacefully with others in my future acting career and not go head to head with them.]
Elena’s post exploded on Weibo.
Elena’s words were too ambiguous, as if she had admitted that she had indeed had an argument with Audrey, but she also mentioned that she hoped that she wouldn’t be at odds with others in her future acting career…
Wasn’t this saying that Audrey was indeed targeting her?
For a moment, the netizens were even angrier. They expressed their heartache for Elena in the comments section. She had already been bullied to this extent, but she was still thinking for others.
When Charlotte turned on her phone, she saw such a scene. A large group of people were spamming the television drama “Goddess”, scolding Audrey for her improper style, immoral behavior, and strong jealousy. She bullied an actress in the same group at such a young age, making the people in the same group angry but not dare to say anything.
There were even people who directly said that Audrey had once had an affair with Howard, who had already been arrested and imprisoned. Someone had personally seen Howard stuff Audrey with a room card..
Hence, the netizens made a bold guess: Howard had been inexplicably exposed as a scandal. It was very likely that Audrey had a one-night stand with him. Audrey had taken the opportunity to extort him, and the money Howard had given couldn’t satisfy Audrey. Audrey had directly reported him and sent Howard to prison…action
“Bastard!” Charlotte cursed, not realizing that she was defending Audrey.
“What status does our Lance Family have? Do we still need to extort others?
Who cares about Howard’s money? Bullsh*t, it’s simply bullsh*t!”
Charlotte hid in her room and fought 300 rounds with the netizens who defamed Audrey in the comments section. Those people didn’t expect someone to defend Audrey so forcefully. Most importantly, this person’s mouth was especially sharp. Hence, they found more helpers to rebuke Charlotte. The viciousness of her words left them dumbfounded.
Charlotte smiled coldly and called her best friend, Sandra.
Soon, Sandra’s voice was on the other end of the line. “Hello? Honey, why did you think of coming to see me?”
Charlotte didn’t waste any time and went straight to the point. “Sandra, your father is the chief of the police.. Do you know how to punish those who cyberbully others?”
