The Heiress' Savage Comeback

Chapter 65 Who Knew That Now It Feels Like I've Been Slapped By Her

Leon felt annoyed and upset, while Jodie was also unhappy in Aaron's arms. According to Leon, he wanted to distance himself from them immediately in order to reconcile with Simone. Could it be that the person he truly likes is Simone? No, that's not possible. Leon must be saying this just to appease Simone and prevent her from causing any more trouble. On the internet, Titus, along with Elin, manipulated the public relations team to create a sensation. They claimed that Simone was intentionally diverting the blame and that Leon and Jodie were innocent, contrary to what Simone said. They suggested that Simone simply disliked Jodie and was deliberately tarnishing her reputation. Titus even used his verified Facebook account to post an update.@Gray Group Top Talent Manager—Titusv: 'It's true that I asked Leon to take care of Jodie before the variety show started, but I didn't expect it to be misunderstood by another sister. It's my fault, and I will explain it to Simone. I hope she and everyone else won't misunderstand the situation.' Since Simone's relationship with them had been exposed, there was no need to hide it anymore. Titus personally stepped forward and appeared very sincere. With both sides manipulating sock puppets to create a buzz, many people started to believe them. Leon's fans, seeing this, turned around and continued to criticize Simone. Some people also thought that Simone shouldn't blame Leon just because she disliked Jodie. They made Leon look like a sc*mbag. In reality, he was just helping his younger sister. There was no need to make such a big deal out of it. Some people even sarcastically said that Simone was petty. Perhaps she was afraid of losing a great man like Leon, so she was being sensitive and insecure. The so-called breakup might just be a show. She wanted to play hard to get with Leon. By using this kind of publicity, not only could she shift the blame onto Jodie, but she might even make Leon take the initiative to reconcile. Or so the Internet said. Soon, the tide turned in favor of Leon and Jodie, and Simone once again became the target of criticism. Zac's team couldn't help but sigh. Simone's calculations were really accurate. After they posted the photos in the group and made arrangements with the sock puppets, they also contacted the verified influencer who specialized in exposing accounts. They were originally planning to take immediate action, but Simone sent a message saying to wait a little longer. She wanted to release the photos after Leon and Jodie's public relations team had finished manipulating the situation and tarnishing her reputation. This way, it would have a more dramatic effect and give them a taste of their own medicine. It would also cause Leon and Jodie to face even greater backlash. Simone had accurately predicted everything. When the time was right, they began to release the evidence one by one. First, the verified influencer posted two Facebook posts. @EntertainmentInsiderV: Is it true that Leon, the award-winning actor, only took care of Jodie on the variety show because of a favor from a friend? I don't believe it. @EntertainmentInsiderV: Don't question why I don't believe it because I'm about to post some photos. Then, they posted photos spread through nine grids. All of them were screenshots and pictures of Jodie and Leon together, alone. The key point was that in the nine photos, they were dressed differently in four different outfits. This meant that, just from the photos, they had been alone together four times. The last three photos were even more incriminating. In the first photo, Jodie was leaning her whole body against Leon. In the second photo, their heads were leaning against each other, both smiling and looking down at their phones. In the last photo, Jodie's lips were close to Leon's ear. It looked like she was kissing his ear with her eyes half-closed, giving off a hint of ambiguity.As soon as these photos were released, the number of clicks immediately skyrocketed. 'Award-Winning Actor Leon Cheats With Jojo' became a trending search topic. Leon's fans, who had already calmed down, were disappointed with Leon and couldn't help but hate Jodie. The audience, who had been watching the show in delight, were once again shocked by this twist. 'This is some fast drip feed of the tea. We can't keep up.' 'Tsk tsk, Leon, the award-winning actor, is really playing it well. Just as he denied the rumors and clarified, he was caught red-handed.' 'He said he was just taking care of Titus' sister as a favor, but is this how he takes care of her?' 'They are so intimate in private, with Jojo leaning her whole body against Leon, the award-winning actor. Is this what a pure relationship looks like?' 'Jojo is really "divine." On the one hand, she is close to Leon, the award-winning actor, privately, kissing his ear, and on the other hand, she hugs and kisses her "brother".' 'Does Jojo have a different understanding of what 'brother' means than normal people?' 'I also think so. In her recent Facebook post, she referred to Leon, the award-winning actor, as her brother, so is this the kind of intimacy she has with her brother?' 'So, they are all "brothers" in a romantic sense?' 'I pity Simone. Both her ex-boyfriend and her "brother" have become Jojo's love interest. No wonder she was betrayed by them.'The internet was filled with mockery. Elin and Titus were shocked when they saw this. They immediately had their technical department verify the evidence. The result came back that the screenshots and photos had not been edited, and they were indeed real. Both of them were on the verge of losing their minds. They had no idea that Leon and Jodie had so much private contact. Looking at the photos, it was clear that not only did they meet privately, but their relationship was also very intimate. Elin wanted nothing more than to go to Jodie and give her a few slaps. And maybe scratch her b*tchy face. Leon, who was usually calm and dignified, had actually stooped to this level because of Jodie. Now, just as they had successfully cleared up the rumors about their relationship, they were being exposed by solid evidence. It was like when Leon had just posted on Facebook that they were together, only to be hit with a breakup confirmation from Simone. With these consecutive setbacks, Leon's credibility would undoubtedly be greatly diminished, leading to a crisis of trust. Currently, Elin was seated in Titus' office."What should we do now? Our previous efforts in public relations were in vain, and we even made wedding preparations for Simone." Elin gazed at Titus with a serious expression and continued, "Didn't you mention that Simone had left Gray Entertainment and was blacklisted by your company?" "But now it's clear that someone is helping her with her public relations!" "Who is supporting her?" "And it's evident that everything was planned in advance." "We had just restored our reputation, and then they released concrete evidence photos as if they were waiting for the perfect moment." Titus' expression also turned sour. This was the first time he had been put in such a disadvantageous position since entering the industry. And this was the first time it happened because of his own sister. Through clenched teeth, he said, "I underestimated her." Initially, he only intended to pressure Simone into returning and apologizing to him, making her regret her impulsive actions that day. As long as Simone stopped competing with Jo and obediently assumed the role of the Gray Family's young miss and listened to him, he would use his resources as an older brother to help her improve her public image. Therefore, he didn't pay much attention when Simone left the Gray Family. Because he always believed that no matter how much she rebelled, she would eventually come back home. Who would have thought that her actions would prove him so wrong? He also wanted to inquire about Simone's public relations team and the source of these photos. However, now was not the time to investigate that.After pondering for a moment, he furrowed his brow and said, "Let the sock puppets handle it, claim that there are issues with the angles of these photos, that they were deliberately taken to mislead the public." "And this wasn't a private meeting between the two of them. It was me taking Jo to dinner with Leon, so I was present." For now, this was the only way they could salvage the situation.
