Chapter 1421
[ 546 words ]
She was surrounded by the crowd and the press. Countless stares and camera flashes focused on her, piercing her heart like thousands of sharp needles, hurting so much she could barely stand.
If this had been the past.
She might have started cursing, or if words failed, she would have thrown punches.
But not now.
Her every word and action would affect Jimmie.
Just as the reporters said, Jimmie’s reputation had already taken a massive hit by being with her. She couldn’t let it get any worse.
“Ms. Langley, does your silence prove the rumors are true?”
The reporters stared at her, pressing aggressively.
True?
Hearing the reporter’s words, the bystanders immediately started murmuring.
Some said Jimmie must be blind to choose someone so androgynous over all the beautiful women in the entertainment industry.
Some fans immediately declared they were done supporting him, cursing Jimmie for playing dead and disregarding his fanbase.
Others held up their phones to live stream, and the comments flooding their screens were horrific.
They even escalated to attacking Juniper and her family.
Listening to the slander from the crowd, Luella slowly clenched the hands resting at her sides. Her eyes grew hot and red from the sheer injustice of it all.
A few seconds later.
She slowly lifted her head, staring fearlessly into the cameras, speaking word by word. “Fine. I’ll address everything right now.”
“You’re reporters, right? Make sure you get all of this on camera.”
At her words.
The entire terminal fell dead silent. Every gaze and camera lens zeroed in on her face, terrified of missing a single word.
Five minutes ago.
Jimmie’s flight safely landed at Eclara City International Airport.
After turning off airplane mode.
His phone suddenly exploded with news alerts, the cover image showing Luella being ambushed by reporters at the airport.
“Jimmie!”
Clark tapped into the live stream and shoved the phone in front of Jimmie, his face completely pale. “Something’s happened to Ms. Langley.”
In the video.
Luella was barricaded tight, while countless reporters and rabid fans interrogated and hurled insults at her.
Seeing this, Jimmie instantly
unbuckled his seatbelt and grabbed the nearest flight attendant. “How long until the cabin doors open?
How much longer
“Mr. Tate-“
The flight attendant was badly startled and stammered, “We’re waiting for the captain’s signal, it’ll be about five minutes!”
“Jimmie, you need to calm down.”
Clark stepped up, pulling at the anxious actor to soothe him.
“There’s an update on the stream. Ms. Langley is making a
Clarification.” FindNovel.net
Jimmie turned his head, snatched the phone, and watched the girl speaking on the
screen.
“Number one: The reason I initially appeared dressed as a man was because of family circumstances. I will explain that later.”
“Number two: I have never been in a romantic relationship with any man or woman.”
“However, I have financially supported quite a few women who were trapped in desperate situations.”
“Financially supported?”
A reporter immediately raised a doubt. “Ms. Langley, can you prove it was financial
support and not an illicit relationship?”
For example: hush money.
“Prove it?”
Luella’s gaze landed on the reporter
who asked the question, her eyes
turning freezing cold. “So I can
publish their personal information
and let all of you cyberbully them? Is that it?”
“We aren’t like that!” The reporter looked defensive.
“Really?” Luella sneered. “Some reporters have completely discarded their morals
for the sake of traffic.”
Morals?
In her eyes, they weren’t even worthy of being called human!
As soon as Luella finished speaking, a nearby reporter suddenly shouted:
“Witnesses are showing up in the comments section!”
“More than one!”
