Chapter 30 Trending Scandal
The key was, even though Yvonne and the other two were furious enough to grind their teeth, they couldn’t do anything to Windy now.
They had more urgent problems like getting the innocent bystander to the hospital.
–
The three of them were practically in tears.
After leaving the steakhouse, Windy took out her phone, looking at the video she had successfully recorded. The corners of her mouth lifted slightly.
The simpler she had been in her previous life, the more cunning she was now.
In any situation, having evidence was crucial.
She used an unregistered phone card and dialed a number.
It belonged to Waylon, a paparazzo she had worked with in her past life
one of the sharpest in the entertainment world.
Any scandal Waylon exposed was usually true.
That was why most celebrities hated him, but no one dared to openly offend him either.
“You see the video? I want the Lynn family and the Fawks family on the trending list today–top three. I’ll give you a million. Two hundred thousand up front within ten minutes. The rest after the job’s done.”
Waylon agreed without even asking questions. “OK, no problem.”
In his line of work, he had seen it all.
Many second- and third–tier celebrities would secretly hire paparazzi to stage scandals and boost their own fame.
Some even staged videos to push themselves onto trending topics.
As long as it wasn’t illegal and the client paid well, Waylon didn’t care.
He thought this time was just another desperate starlet trying to manufacture hype.
Waylon moved fast. Within two hours, a secretly filmed video exploded across the internet.
Within half an hour, it shot to number one on Twitter’s trending list.
The video showed a wealthy–looking young lady pointing at a teenage girl, viciously calling her a country bumpkin, a poor wretch, saying she had no right to eat steak…
Claiming Olivia Steakhouse was exclusively for high–end clientele….
Saying poor people contaminated the environment, carried viruses….
The footage had been edited carefully piecing together the most offensive moments into one complete clip.
Even though the faces were blurred-
There was no hiding from the all–powerful netizens.
Those venomous words hit hard, cutting straight into everyone who watched.
In Dravia, the majority of people were ordinary citizens.
They instinctively put themselves in the shoes of the “poor” girl.
It didn’t take long for netizens to dig up the true identities of the two arrogant girls.
