Patty furrowed her brows, taken aback by Savannah’s indifferent attitude.
Savannah had always seemed kind and approachable on the outside, but Patty knew she was fiercely proud and stubborn beneath the surface.
“Savannah, aren’t you even a little angry?” Patty asked, her voice laced with curiosity.
Savannah shrugged. “Of course I am. But what difference does it make?” she replied, her tone casual, almost dismissive.
Patty fell silent, thinking over Savannah’s words.
After they ended the call, Patty stumbled upon a trending news article.
The relationship between Waylon and Isabella had been exposed, and the internet was buzzing with reactions. People who had once criticized Waylon were shocked.
“Who would have thought Waylon was innocent?” someone commented. “I guess his posts were all genuine, and the current king was slandered all along!”
“I can’t believe the Hunt Group’s audacity! They stoop so low with these tactics. Defaming the king—who do they think they are?”
Fuming, Patty clenched her fists. She could swear that her family had nothing to do with the king’s scandal. They had already cut ties with Savannah’s side, so why would they have a reason to tarnish the king’s reputation?
It had to be the Black family pulling the strings.
The evidence pointed to a senior executive in their group, but she was certain the Black family had bribed this person to act on their behalf.
She was furious. Not only had the Black family smeared the king’s name, but they had also pulled the Hunt Group into the mess, making them the scapegoat.
Quickly, Patty arranged for an official response and fired the senior executive. But despite her efforts, most people didn’t believe their side of the story.
After all, they had tainted Waylon’s name, and now he had been vindicated.
Rumors began circulating about Waylon’s potential departure from the industry, leaving his fans in dismay.
“Some fans are just too much. He’s not theirs. He’s worked hard and dedicated himself to his craft. How could anyone fantasize about him being their boyfriend?”
“Yeah, extreme fans are the worst. If he leaves because of them, I’ll never forgive them!”
“So they’re siblings! I thought they looked alike from the start. Both of them are so good-looking—I guess that’s the power of good genes! Honestly, his sister could probably debut as well!”
“I feel so bad for Waylon, getting insulted like that. And his company did nothing to support him—they even demanded a penalty fee! It’s outrageous. I hope the court stands by him.”
“Absolutely! That company should compensate him. They owe him big time.”
“Breaking news! It turns out Roxy Wheeler was the one who orchestrated the whole attack against him!”
This shocking revelation came from a fan with inside information.
Roxy was no stranger to Waylon’s fans; she had a reputation. Roxy often organized fan events and handed out autographed photos of Waylon.
Everyone knew she was wealthy and a die-hard fan, showing up at his events and even posting pictures of them together. At one point, she had posted so many photos that fans started to think she might actually be dating Waylon.
But now that it was revealed she was behind the attack on Waylon, the fans were furious. They took to Twitter, flooding her page with angry messages.
“Go get help if you’re sick, alright? Waylon’s everyone’s idol, not just yours! If you push him out of the industry, we won’t forgive you!”
“What, you think just because you’ve got some cash, you can control him? I bet your entire family isn’t worth as much as he is! Stop trying to monopolize him. It’s pathetic!”
“Even Patty couldn’t win him over, so what makes you think you can?”
“Apologize to him now! This is too much. I may not have power, but I stand with him. I won’t let him leave because of you!”
“Apologize now!”
Roxy was in her Porsche when her phone buzzed incessantly.
Glancing at the screen, she saw an endless stream of hateful messages. She tossed the phone onto the seat as though it had scalded her. Her mind raced.
How did it come to this? She hadn’t known that woman was Waylon’s sister. Why hadn’t he cleared things up from the start? And now, she was somehow the villain? These fans were acting irrationally!
“Miss Wheeler, should I drive you home?” her driver asked.
Roxy opened her mouth to answer, but her words died in her throat as she noticed a group of fans gathering around, blocking the Porsche’s path.
“Get out of the car, you disgrace!” one of them shouted.
“Don’t you have even the slightest sense of self-respect? Humph! I’ve never seen someone with such severe delusions as you. You must go to Waylon and apologize in person.”
The angry fans surrounded the car, blocking the way.
Roxy’s expression soured even further, and her face turned extremely pale.
She used to hold sway over these fans. They admired her because her wealth allowed her to participate in all of Waylon’s events and activities. She always shared exclusive photos with everyone.
But because of what had happened just now, they had completely forgotten her past contributions.
Anger surged in her heart as she thought about how ungrateful these fans were.
The noisy voices of the fans continued, and some even started banging on the car windows. Roxy could no longer hold back. Driven by anger, she rolled down the window and shouted at them, “How dare you say all these things now! Back then, I didn’t see any of you standing up for Waylon. If anyone is despicable here, it’s you guys!”
The fans were stunned, not expecting her sudden outburst. Before they could react, Roxy continued, “And do you really believe Waylon will quit the entertainment industry? Do you think he is willing to give up his current status? Give him one month and wait and see. Once this matter calms down, he will return to filming.”
After saying this, she rolled up the window and told the driver to drive away.
Patty rushed back to the company, which was in turmoil because of their exile from Lorpond. When she saw her father’s anxious look, she felt a twinge of worry. “Dad, why is Lorpond evicting our malls and brands?”
Her father, Albin Hunt, looked frazzled, a stark contrast to his usual calm and composed demeanor. He replied, “I’m still investigating it.”
He had already made several phone calls to gather information. Patty sat obediently on the sofa, her hands folded neatly in her lap, her gaze fixed on the floor. She didn’t dare to move.
Albin had always been the pillar of strength in their family. He handled challenges with calm precision and unshakable confidence. This was the first time Patty had seen him so distressed, and she understood the gravity of the situation.
After all, Lorpond was a massive market, and their family had hoped to make a significant profit from it.
It took Albin almost twenty minutes before he finally put down his phone.
Patty raised her head and saw that his expression had suddenly calmed. She was a bit confused. “Dad, what’s going on?”
Just moments ago, Albin had looked extremely anxious.
Albin met her gaze. “Patty, what have you done?”
Patty was even more confused. “Me?” She pointed at herself incredulously. “What do you mean, what have I done? I haven’t done anything.”
She had never been to Lorpond. How could she have offended anyone there?
Albin’s face darkened. “I asked some friends there to help me investigate this matter. They said it was all because of you. You offended someone you shouldn’t have.”
Panic surged in Patty’s heart. “Dad, that’s nonsense. I’ve never even set foot in Lorpond. How could I have offended anyone there?”
“If it were an ordinary person, they wouldn’t have possibly evicted us. The only person I can think of is Andrew. Try to recall. Was there a time you offended Andrew?”
Patty was stunned. Andrew…
Could he be… standing up for Isabella?
Her eyes suddenly went blank.
Albin immediately saw through Patty’s expression, which made him exasperated.
“Patty, how did you offend Andrew? Tell me. Tell me everything before we go find him.”
