h4Chapter 140: Chapter 138: Absurd/h4

    ――― Bet Family Vi.

    Luna listened to the chaotic sounds on the other end of the phone, and her drowsy mind came fully awake.

    Listening carefully, she heard many people talking, chaotic and noisy, and she immediately understood that Elliana Lyle was surrounded by reporters.

    Hanging up the phone, she checked the time. In the middle of the afternoon, how could she have been surrounded by reporters?

    She then entered the group chat and initiated a group call.

    "Sister Luna, is there something important that you called?" asked Tommy.

    Luna yawned and said, "The boss is surrounded by reporters. Everyone, meet at the school gate. Where’s Andrew Hue?"

    Andrew Hue: "I’m here."

    "Aren’t you at school? You’re nearby."

    Andrew Hue: "I didn’t go today."

    "Alright, everyone move, meet at the school gate."

    After Luna hung up the phone, she quickly put on her coat, tidied up, and dashed out of the Bet Family mansion.

    Currently, all Elliana could do was deal with the throng of reporters, but their questions were bing increasingly unanswerable.

    "Miss Lyle, can you answer this?"

    "My mother was my father’swfully wedded wife." At this point, her face turned a bit colder, yet she suppressed the urge to p these reporters.

    Her mother had already rested in peace, yet people were still defaming her with baseless rumors.

    ...

    Just then, several cars stopped by the roadside, and down came Luna, Andrew Hue, Tommy, and others.

    They immediately spotted Elliana Lyle being cornered against a wall by a group of reporters, and without saying a word, they pushed into the crowd.

    "Make way, make way for us!"

    A golden head appeared at the edge of the crowd and gradually pushed inward.

    Elliana nced over; it was indeed Andrew Hue, who used his tall frame and strength to quickly push aside the reporters on the outskirts.

    Only after they shielded her into the car did she finally escape the crowd of reporters.

    "What the hell kind of paparazzi are these, with no decency at all?" Luna cursed from the driver’s seat as she started the car.

    "Luna, take me back home."

    Elliana had no desire to stay there any longer; she’d deal with the exam tomorrow, she just wanted to go home now.

    Speaking of which, she had never encountered reporters blocking her at school before; today was really weird.

    She opened her phone and quickly checked Weibo to see what happened overnight.

    Sure enough, her name was trending, but besides hers, there was Norman Bet’s too.

    [The History of Celebrity Elliana Lyle’s stic Surgery]

    Elliana: (●—●)

    She truly had no idea how these people could make up so much out of thin air; while the ims couldn’t be said to be entirely false, at least the names were real.

    The first im had her genuinely curious, curious as to what evidence these people supposedly had!

    Taitai Entertainment:

    Someone captured The Bets’ heir Norman Bet strolling intimately with actress Elliana Lyle, affirming their rtionship.

    ording to insiders, Elliana Lyle had undergone three abortions for Norman Bet! After having an abortion surgery in the hospital, Elliana was allegedly dumped and used suicide to coerce Norman into reuniting with her!

    [Photo]

    Seeing this, Elliana was speechless. How on earth was this photo obtained? Wasn’t this a picture from years ago when she was escaping from the hospital? How did it be about abortion and suicide?

    She continued to scroll down.

    Taitai Entertainment:

    The picture shows Elliana looking haggard and unsteady, further confirming the abortion story, and using suicide to force Norman Bet’s hand, clearly she seeded.

    Nowadays, the two seem sweet, but who knows if they will truly end happily?

    Adventure Now: "Seriously don’t understand why anyone would like a woman like this, her negative news is too much, just a rich man’s toy, I don’t even get where the pure personaes from."

    Sweety Elliana: "Forced smear campaign? Who doesn’t know about Elliana Lyle’s engagement with Norman Bet? And the picture is so blurry you can’t see anything, and the window silhouette looks more like a ghost than my Elliana! The inte is not a ce for false rumors, spreading lies is illegal!"

    Weather Vane v: "Definitely a forced smear, this is over the top, just grabbing some ghost-like photo and iming it’s Elliana, no matter how it is, Elliana would never look like that."

    She was happy someone was defending her, but it really was her in that ghostly figure.

    Perhaps it was because of the distance, making her unidentifiable.

    Looking at these ridiculous rumors from publicity ounts, she wasn’t that angry anymore, as she had gotten used to being vilified. Mainly, the content was so oundish that she had no energy left to argue.

    As for the shelving news, she didn’t even have to think twice to know what that was about, of course, it’s because Norman Bet postponed her new movie release.

    What intrigued her the most was her "stic surgery history."

    Little Joy:

    The entertainment industry nevercks beauties, and this time our protagonist could be seen as a werewolf, sessfullybeling herself as "the pure and charming" from head to toe! But after her ugly photos surfaced,izens started buying her look less, and began analyzing her changes in appearance.

    [Image][Image]

    We have images and the truth, the changes are so apparent, surely cosmetic surgery.

    Reading to this point, Elliana found it hard to even respond. In the pictures...

    Her nose looked like two holes stuck on her face, utterly without any bridge, her lips were dark purple and very thick, her skin dark and full of pimples.

    She had no idea where these pictures came from, even if someone altered her original photo to look ugly, it wouldn’t be as bizarre as this.

    While scrolling, she inadvertently clicked into this blogger’s homepage and discovered this blogger had only posted one piece of news, about her alleged cosmetic surgery.

    How could a first post rank so highly without some maniptive hands behind the scenes? She refused to believe it!

    Seeing Elliana browsing on her phone, Luna said, "I’ve seen those things, utterly ridiculous. Just wait until I find out who’s behind it, and have Tommy file awsuit."

    "Sigh!" Elliana sighed deeply, reclined on the seat, and said, "Had I known, I wouldn’t have entered the entertainment industry. It’s exhausting."

    "It’s really not a big deal. Your shelving issue is being talked about like it’s something real, but no one believes the other stuff, especially the stic surgery im. The original image is of a female criminal who had her nose cut off, just wait, in less than an hour, the authorities will take it down."

    "Mm!" Elliana murmured in agreement, having put her phone down, she closed her eyes, wanting to catch some sleep.

    Seeing her beginning to doze off, Luna clicked her tongue and said, "Hey! Don’t sleep, I’m starving, let’s grab something to eat before heading back."

    "You go eat, I don’t want to get out of the car." She genuinely feared being swarmed the moment she stepped out, her ears still buzzed from themotion.

    Pikachu?～

    The phone rang, and she had zero desire to answer it. After two rings of hesitation, she impatiently picked up her phone.

    Seeing it was Norman Bet calling, she quickly answered.

    "Hello, Norman Bet."

    "Pull over," the man’s tone wasn’t great, a bit rushed, but still carried a hint of concern.

    Upon hearing this, she instinctively checked the rearview mirror and indeed spotted the man’s car!

    "Luna, pull over, Norman Bet is behind us."
