That afternoon, the internet just exploded. In the afternoon, everyone was either at work or in school, not exactly peak time for internet activity. But the news was just too sensational to hold back. "Sophie Wilson fires back at netizens: None of your damn business!" "Sophie Wilson: The entertainment industry is worth nothing!" One sensational post after another quickly went viral on the forum, with replies pouring in, turning into a high-rise of discussions. Office workers, during their breaks, were sending links to each other on QQ, and wave after wave of netizens flooded the posts. Initially, a few of Sophie Wilson’s fans tried to defend her, but within minutes they were all silenced by the online backlash. Sophie Wilson’s arrogant remarks were seen as excessive by both haters and bystanders alike. "How shameless can she be? Being an ingrate is something to be proud of now?" "Back then, it would’ve been better if her mom had just tossed her away at birth." "Was it that they threw the baby away but raised the placenta?" The internet was filled with all kinds of insults, it was already wildly explosive in the afternoon, and by evening, it was nothing but all about Sophie Wilson. "I really blew up this time." Sophie Wilson said with a laugh after seeing the situation online. Kai Bright looked at his cousin, speechless. Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝※𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖※𝕟𝕖𝕥 It takes a remarkably strong mindset to remain indifferent in the face of such widespread online scolding. "When do you think Grace Wilson will hold a press conference?" Sophie Wilson asked, smiling as she poked Charles Seymour’s arm. Hmm, the soft skin over tight muscle felt really nice to poke. Poke again, and again... Charles Seymour looked at Sophie Wilson helplessly but indulgently, even adjusting his arm to make it easier for her to poke. Kai Bright covered his face silently, couldn’t these two stop flaunting their affection? Even single dogs have dog rights! "The latest by the day after tomorrow," Charles Seymour said, his calm tone showing he wasn’t at all concerned about Grace Wilson’s actions. "Alright then. It’s time to sort everything out." Sophie Wilson sighed gently, then looked at Charles Seymour, "Have you reached out to everyone?" "Yes." Charles Seymour nodded. "Must have taken quite a bit of social favors, right?" Sophie Wilson sighed, knowing that whatever issue she had, Charles Seymour always handled it, and no matter how well-connected he was, using those connections required calling in favors. Charles Seymour shook his head: "Only by calling in favors can you expand connections. If you never use them, there’s no basis for interaction. If it weren’t for your issues, I’d have no reason to reach out to them." Kai Bright’s mouth dropped in surprise, does Charles Seymour not need to expand his network through favors? He didn’t even blink while telling such fibs, how had he never noticed this skill in Charles Seymour before? The key was, the implication in Charles Seymour’s words was just too sour. Does his good network really solely exist because of Sophie’s needs, getting him to interact with others and do tasks to build relationships? Even though he’s Sophie’s cousin, he can’t be so biased to think that Charles Seymour’s doting on Sophie is just naturally justified. Is this ordinary pampering of a girlfriend? He absolutely believes now that if Sophie said snow was black, Charles Seymour would find a way to dye all the snow in the world! "Hiss... You guys are too much." Kai Bright couldn’t help but speak up. Charles Seymour turned his head and asked indifferently, "Why are you still here?"
