Chapter 247
The team leader eyed Liam with a menacing look. "Sir, I'm going to need you to move aside now! If not, we're going to have to get physical!"
No sooner had he spoken than two towering bodyguards stepped up, brandishing their stun guns with a threatening air, their eyes locked on Liam.
The bodyguards' aggressive move sparked outrage among the mall's shoppers. They began pointing and shouting at the bodyguards and the sunglass-clad celebrity at the center of it all.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"This is outrageous! What kind of celebrity acts like this? Her bodyguards injured a little kid and didn't even apologize, and now they're getting all aggressive and making threats?"
"Exactly! It's like there's no law anymore. Look at the bump on that poor child's forehead, and they don't even care. I can't believe anyone actually likes these people!"
"They're just bullies with connections. You can tell a lot about someone by the company they keep. And that woman in the middle, looking all annoyed like we're in her way, as if we owe her something!"
"Tsk, sstar she is! With that attitude, calling her a street performer would be too kind!"
"Wait a second, she looks familiar... Isn't that Barbie Yack, one of those new Four Rising Stars always on TV?"
"That's her, alright. No wonder her bodyguards are so vile. She's not exactly known for her virtues, always causing drama, and flirting with the big shots for a role or a favor from a director. It's just sickening!"
The mall was abuzz with onlookers pointing and murmuring about the celebrity at the center of attention, Barbie. Flanked by her bodyguards, she stood tall and proud until the whispers turned her
face a ghostly pale.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe loathed the rumors that her rise to fwas all thanks to her looks, even if there was a kernel of truth in the gossip. Despite that, she had landed plenty of ads and movie gigs. She was recently dubbed one of the fresh faces to watch, one of the Four Rising Stars. With a huge fanbase, she was the apple of the eye of countless brands and directors.
Whether they were after her for her talent, well, that was their little secret.
Fame, as always, cwith its fair share of haters, and Barbie never gave the scandals the tof day.
Her acting chops were non-existent, and her title as one of the Four Rising Stars was thanks to shigh-level flirting and a well-oiled PR machine. Her rise to stardom? All because of her doll- like looks and that put-on, sugary voice that many seemed to adore.
Barbie's face was drained of color. She leaned in and muttered to her agent, who transformed in an instant, her face a mask of outrage worthy of an Oscar. She turned to the hecklers with a glare.
"What nonsense are you spouting? These are baseless lies, a smear campaign against our Barbie. Diva tantrums? Homewrecker? Absolute fiction. Barbie has done nothing like that!"
The agent's fiery tirade rallied Barbie's die-hard fans, who jumped to her defense, clashing with the onlookers. The high-end mall erupted into chaos, as rowdy as a street market.
