Renee followed Leia’s finger; her eyes fixated on the man as she frowned.” Mr. Winston?
No way... He’s one of the first people who partnered with Azure Group, and he’s considered
an old friend of ours. I wouldn’t
When Azure Group was first founded, it was just a small company with no name and
nothing to offer, so there were very few business partners who were willing to work with
them. Each partnership they had managed to get back then was the fruit of their hard labor.
Mr. Winston was actually great, being a down-to-earth man. Although he wasn’t exactly the
most powerful person to work with, he was certainly the most reliable one.
This was why Renee refused to believe he would ever betray them like this. “I think there’s
more to the eye...”
“But... the angle! It’s definitely taken from this angle! Even if he hadn’t uploaded the video,
he was the one who recorded it! It’s obvious that he had ulterior motives for doing so!”
“Ah, let’s just forget about it for now. We have to think of some way to take down all those
photos and videos, along with all the hate comments! We have to make sure it dies down
before Quinton finds out!” Renee didn’t care to overthink this any further, as she only
wanted to get this over and done with.
With that, the two women locked themselves up in another lounge within the hotel, doing
everything in their power to contact anyone to take down any posts and ban any users. At
times, they even started retorting back at some of the netizens.
Netizen: [Bleurgh, that’s disgusting! He’s so ugly, whoever who dines with him would surely
vomit, right?!]
Renee: [If you vomit so easily, I suggest you go seek medical attention. Just look at all the
bullsh*t you’re spewing!]
Netizen: [Just look at that scar on his face. He’s definitely some kind of thug. He probably
got what he deserved.]
Renee: [If you like judging someone by their looks so much, why don’t you take a good look
at yourself in the mirror?]
Netizen: [Why is someone still defending someone so ugly? Are they into ugly b*stards?!]
Renee: [Thanks for noticing. I just simply hate stupidity, especially stupid people who judge
books by their cover!]
After Renee’s many attempts, she managed to sway the netizens’ views on her brother’s
looks.
Netizen 1: [Just here for the hype, it’s such a shame that a man with such defined features
ended up with a scar like that.]
Netizen 2: [Same, I think he’d be more good-looking than most idols out there if not for that
scar!]
Netizen 3: [If he really is Renee Everheart’s brother, maybe his face was scarred by the very
same people who took down the Everheart family! Oh my god, what evil!]
Betizen 3: [Wait, that does sound like an interesting idea. Come on, guys! Let’s look into
this!]
People were like sheep, blindly following the way in which the wind blew.
At first, many were berating Quinton for his looks, but now most were defending him with all
their might. Some even started looking into the truth of his scars.
Seeing how the trending topics were dying, Renee felt much more relieved. She then put
away her laptop and took a sip of her orange juice. She turned to Leia, who was still
frantically looking for people who could help take down the posts. “Leia, take a break. I think
we have it under control now.”
“Mhm, I think so too. Looks like most of the netizens still have some decency.” Leia lets out
a sigh of relief after hanging up as well.
The women then proceeded to talk about everything and anything, only to find themselves
feeling quite sleepy hours later. With that, they resigned to bed.
The next day, as dawn was just approaching, Renee was bombarded with a barrage of calls
from Leia.
“Ren, you’re still sleeping!? Something’s happened again! Quick... check online!”
