"Looks like it. Even Royce's comeback couldn't turn the tide this time. Seems like the Harperdynasty is on the brink of a change"
"Am I the only one who's curious about Elizabeth's condition?"
The buzzing crowd suddenly fell silent.
“Yeah, is Elizabeth even alive? Judging by Royce's grim expression, things don't look good."b2 Theappearance of Royce undoubtedly stirred up a whirlwind of interest.
Conspiracy theories about the plane crash began to circulate online. There were various versions,and opinions were divided.
Most of the speculation centered around Robin, who seemed to be the biggest beneficiary since theplane crash. His presence in the company was greeted with awkward expressions and attitudesfrom the staff. The impact of the incident on him was profound.
Meanwhile, the internet was rife with conspiracy theories surrounding the plane crash, with thesecond most popular topic being the controversy over Chloe's design copyrights. To mitigate hisnegative online image, Robin immediately directed the Public Relations Department to tackle theissue.
The PR Department's strategy was to promote one and downplay the other.
They pushed posts about Chloe to the top, overshadowing Robin's trending topics.
"Using a dead person's design, aren't they afraid of being haunted? And it's plagiarism, aren't theyafraid of ghosts knocking at their door at night?"
“Plagiarism is the same as copying. People like this should be boycotted"
Watching the post about her quickly overtake the one about the plane crash, Chloe laughed like acunning, sly fox. After contemplating for a while, she picked up the phone and dialed a number atthe company.
Half an hour later, the internet was practically paralyzed. Not because of anything else, but becauseof Chloe's audacious move. At a time when everybody was waiting to mock her, she shockinglyannounced that her new series would start filming ahead of schedule.
There was no promotion of the series afterward, so everyone thought she had backed down. At thevery least, they thought the series would be put on hold, waiting for the storm to pass, beforemaking any further decisions.
However, she chose to go ahead at this critical juncture.
The barrage of online attacks was relentless. This time, it seemed like all those waiting for Chloe toexplain had been incensed.
"We've waited for two days, she hasn't given a single explanation and the next news we hear is thatthey're starting filming early?"
“What the hell? What is she trying to say? Does she think we're nitpicking?
That we're making a big deal out of a deceased person's work?"
"She can use the work of the deceased, but she didn't even explain beforehand. If it wasn'tdiscovered by others, would she have kept it a secret that the work was actually someone else's?"
“I'm really disappointed in Ms. Summers this time. I've always admired and trusted her. I've beenwaiting for her to give us, her fans, a satisfying response, but she still hasn't changed her ways."
"That's right, I've been telling other fans to stay calm, and I firmly believed that she would surpriseus. But now, we are so disappointed"
“lL think she's become arrogant because of her popularity. She does whatever she wants, not caringabout her fans’ feelings."
“Doesnt she feel like she's embarrassing herself? Does she think all her fans are brainless and willsupport her unconditionally?"
“Every time something involves her, it's always a huge mess. It's like she wants the whole world toknow about her. Too much drama, I’m unfollowing."
"Don't expect all your fans to be mindless and support you unconditionally"
Chloe naturally saw all of these negative comments. Her expression wasnt good, but she chose toremain silent. She didn't change any of her plans because of the online comments, and the filmingceremony went ahead as planned.
With the male and female leads in place, along with a few selected newcomers, the filmingceremony was well attended. Moreover, Chloe's move this time was both baffling and infuriating.Without explaining the previous incident, she left everyone who was waiting for a follow-updevelopment holding their breath, unable to vent their frustration.
As a result, people started paying more attention to how Chloe would handle
the matter. So on the day of Chloe's filming ceremony, she didn't need to invite anyone, as reportersand spectators flocked to the scene, including haters and former fans.
The filming ceremony was a crowded event.
The mood of everyone was unstable, with haters publicly mocking Chloe's fans for being mindless.Chloe's fans, from being initially indignant to not being able to say a word in the face of the haters’open and veiled jibes, felt both stifled and upset.
In short, Chloe's persistent silence maximized everyone's curiosity about the matter.
"Starting filming at a time like this, has she no shame? She's a world-renowned perfumer, blatantlyplagiarizing someone else's design with such an attitude. Who's going to support her?”
“For the record, we fans won't support you. Out of respect for once being your fan, I'm kindlyadvising you, instead of making a big fuss about starting filming, why not apologize publicly and notstart filming at all? The series is bound to flop. It's a waste of human and social resources, which ishighly unethical."
“I'm replaceing this woman more and more annoying. This time, she's not only slapped her fans in theface, but also her own face. What a joke!"
Chloe's car had just arrived at the filming ceremony, and a crowd of reporters and onlookers quicklyswarmed over.
The bodyguards from the two cars behind quickly formed a human barrier, blocking everyone out.Only after ensuring total safety did Nate dare to open the door and carefully escort Chloe out of thecar.
Chloe was wrapped in a pink puffer jacket, and her slightly loose-fitting outfit didn't make her appearbaggy, but rather added a touch of charm to her appearance. She wore the hood of her downjacket, her neck nestled in the collar, and she walked towards the venue under the escort of herbodyguards. There was still a bit of time before the cameras would start rolling, and not all theactors had arrived yet. However, all the journalists"
attention was fixated on Chloe.
"Ms. Summers,’ one of them asked, "have you seen the news online?"
“About the theft of the quilting guild's designs, can you give us a response today?"
“Yeah, Ms. Summers,’ another piped up, “even your fans are particularly unhappy with your actionsthis time. Don't you think you owe them an explanation?"
At that moment, Chloe had reached the front. She paused, facing the journalists, and offered theman inscrutable smile.
“Fans?” speak.
