Chapter 269

Richard had shed his solemn attitude and appeared more like a pitiful child who had lost his candy. He

even looked at Pearl with a hopeful expression. The stark contrast was rather amusing.

Pearl swallowed slightly before explaining, “That was an accident, and I only took a quick glance. I

didn’t stare at his face, and I left the room right away.”

Satisfied with her explanation, Richard nodded and sat up straight, then drove them back home.

After the exhausting night, they were both still sleepy when they got back. They decided to wash up

early and head to bed.

The next morning, when Pearl woke up, she was startled to find Richard sitting before her in a suit.

“F*ck! You scared me!” Pearl cursed, her heart racing from the surprise.

Ignoring her reaction, Richard said, “Both Mobius and Esther are in trouble.”

His words instantly banished any lingering sleepiness from Pearl. Wide-eyed, she asked, “What

happened?”

Richard opened his phone’s social media app and showed Pearl the screen without saying a word.

Pearl could see some large, red, and bold words on the screen.

[Young celebrity Esther’s boyfriend caught being intimate with another woman at a late-night bar.

Scandalous!]

The post included details about how Esther and Mobius had met, along with some pictures. There were

images of Esther and Mobius, their accidental kiss, and a curvaceous woman sitting next to Mobius

while he was having a late-night drink at the bar. Their faces were blurred, but it wouldn’t be difficult for

anyone who knew them to recognize them.

Panicked, Pearl realized that this was a more complicated situation than the accidental kiss. The post

had already gathered a lot of comments, many of them hurling insults at Esther.

[She’s not a star but a pathetic b*tch.]

[Yeah, she looked bright and charming, but she secretly dated a guy and even got cheated on. Serves

her right!]

[What? My idol is in a relationship? Oh, I don’t want to be her fan anymore.]

[Get a grip! You can’t date her even if she’s single.]

There were also people trying to make matters worse.

[I told you so! She’s a wild b*tch. A few days ago, I saw her with her arm around a guy’s shoulders near

a high school. They seemed quite close, and I’m sure it wasn’t Mobius!]

This comment was accompanied by a photo of Esther and Christian from behind.

Despite some people defending Esther, their comments were drowned out by the uproar. Mobius and

the unknown woman didn’t receive as much criticism, as they weren’t public figures with fans. Most of

the troublemakers were haters of Esther, seizing the opportunity to tarnish her image.

Pearl first attempted to call Esther, but her line was busy. She then tried calling Mobius, but there was

no answer. He might still be asleep, given his intoxication. As for Esther, her agent and fans were

probably blowing up her phone by now.

Richard, not well-versed in the entertainment industry, was feeling overwhelmed by the situation.

“Let’s go to Esther’s house now. Richard, you should also find Mobius and make sure he’s not being

manipulated again. This must be someone’s deliberate scheme. I’ll contact Wayne to help investigate

the culprit and get in touch with the public relations department to handle this.”

Pearl’s calm analysis was met with a deep gaze from Richard, which felt somewhat unsettling.

“What’s the matter? Was it… very complicated?” she inquired.

Shaking his head, Richard’s gaze remained fixed on her face. “It sounds like you’re quite familiar with

the dark secrets of the

entertainment industry. Have you ever set up an entertainment company?”
