Chapter 798
Yolanda really hated Agnes. If she didn’t come back early today and overheard such a scene, she would still be the fool being played by Agnes.
After Agnes and Jared left, Yolanda strode into the office, and took a seat at Agnes desk, powering on the computer
The glow of the screen illuminated Yolanda’s grimacing face
She whispered, “Agnes, the news was released in your name. Any fallout is yours to handle.”
The next day. Agnes was rudely awakened by a call from the TV station
The head of the TV station himself had called Agnes Upon picking up, she was met with a barrage of criticism, accusing her of lacking journalistic integrity.
Agnes was practically dumbfounded. When she asked what had happened the head, still furious, said Agnes knew perfectly well what she had done and demanded she come to the station immediately before hanging up
After the call, Agnes‘ mind was buzzing. She had a gut feeling something had gone wrong, but she had no clue what had happened.
Her first instinct was to grab her phone and check the station’s official news website
But, to her surprise, the site was down, completely inaccessible
Typically, there were only two reasons for a site to crash technical issues or a massive influx of traffic
But there hadn’t been any major news stories that could’ve caused such a surge in traffic in years.
Agnes was about to put her phone away and head to the station to figure things out when her phone buzzed with a news alert
The headline read, “News Reporter Exposes Actress’s Dark Past. She Was Abused by Many”
Upon seeing the news, Agnes felt like she’d been hit in the chest with a hammer
How could such a news story have surfaced?
Agnes humedly clicked on the article
The story was crudely written, with explicit descriptions clearly intended to smear the actress.
It detailed the events that Jared had mentioned the day before, even bringing up the men who had fled the country The writing was so vulgar that it was hard to
read.
Sharon had been a victim, but the author had used a “promiscuous” label to frame her
It was obvious that whoever wrote it wanted to smear Sharon and sway public opinion.
Just after winning the Best Actress award. Sharon had been under the spotlight.
Now, this scandal had eclipsed all news about her award and other reports.
Even the news about rising star Danny unexpectedly winning the Best Actor award was overshadowed.
All the entertainment headlines, news media, and reposts were about this scandal
It sent shockwaves across the internet
And when Agnes saw the reporter, she found it was posted under her name.
ironically, it seemed as if she had been the one to break the story.
Checking the time it was published. Agnes saw it was at two in the morning.
She had been home since eleven the night before
Now there was only one possibility – Someone else had been in the office, eavesdropped on her conversation with Jared, and after they left, had written and published the article from her computer and under her name.
But who could have done this? Someone with a grudge against her, or someone with a grudge against Sharon?
