Chapter 1281: Chapter 1281: Trending Again?
Right after Charlotte Thompson had left, a wave of discontented murmurings finally erupted in the designer’s office.
"It’s not as if it’s a completely independent design, just the final garment presentation. Why so many demands?"
"Right, the constant back and forth with task reminders, one would think she’s the president of our company!"
"Well, she is the president’s wife, isn’t she? What can we corporate drones even say!"
"Sigh, it’s really annoying. Ever since she parachuted in as the Director, we haven’t had a single good day."
"If we offend her now, won’t our days get even worse? After all, she is the president’s wife!"
"I feel like she has firmly remembered all of us, what if she seeks revenge later? Do we still want this job or not!"
"What kind of president’s wife is she?"
At that moment, from a corner came a contemptuous snicker, drawing everyone’s attention.
"Just a woman who plays the field."
Upon these words, everyone’s expressions changed dramatically.
"Cloud Taylor, what are you saying?" someone peeked out, then suppressed their thoughts, and addressed the person who had just spoken.
"Hey, hey, guys, quickly check your phones, our Miss Thompson is trending again!"
With these words, several people gathered together to check out the hot search on their phones.
"What’s this about now?"
"Isn’t this man Charlotte Thompson’s ex-boyfriend?"
"When did this happen? Our president isn’t being cuckolded, is he?"
And at this moment, what was pushed to the top of the Weibo hot search was a video. Though it was blurry due to being a secret recording, one could roughly make out the protagonists in the video.
A man and a woman, the man merely showed a side profile, but the woman’s face was clearly visible - it was Charlotte Thompson.
The content of the video was also very straightforward: the two entered a room and closed the door, leaving the rest to netizens’ wild imaginations.
Then, out of nowhere, an anonymous account appeared. Although it didn’t name names, netizens could guess from its insinuations that it was indeed referring to Charlotte Thompson.
Charlotte Thompson had caused his family to go bankrupt, left him penniless, and even facing the threat of prison, while Charlotte Thompson herself seemed to be living a very cheerful life now.
This little article was packed with enough drama to fill several soap operas.
But contrary to the previous days when netizens eagerly followed every update, the reaction to this article and video was unusually calm.
One might even say it was unexpectedly harmonious.
"Why is it Charlotte Thompson trending again?"
"Hilarious, Charlotte Thompson as a designer never appears in the entertainment circle, yet she tops the trends more than some trending queens."
"I really don’t understand those media outlets, why keep shearing a sheep’s fur? Over and over again, this stuff about Charlotte Thompson is endless."
"I’m dying of laughter. Do marketing accounts dare to set this narrative? Aren’t they afraid of Justin Battleson sending a lawyer’s letter to take you away?"
"I think Justin Battleson and Charlotte Thompson are viciously happy!"
The strong measures previously taken by Justin Battleson were having an effect at this moment.
All the marketing accounts looking to catch the trend have now fallen silent, and the anonymous account that posted the video and the subsequent article has a pitifully low number of shares.
