Chapter 424: The Media Frenzy
Although this was the plan, both Amelia and Chloe felt a heavy weight in their hearts. If Tiffany wasn’t dead, it was only a matter of time before the truth came to light.
When Ella found out, would her emotions spiral and affect her pregnancy?
Amelia and Chloe trusted their friend implicitly. Ella had no shortage of wealth, love, or prospects. There was no logical reason for her to envy an actress like Tiffany, who had no bearing on her life. Clearly, someone was out to frame Ella.
Yet, they felt powerless to intervene. All they could do was pray Eric would resolve the matter quickly and decisively.
Meanwhile, Ella was resting on her bed, weary and unaware of the storm raging across social media. Deprived of her phone and computer—thanks to Eric’s insistence on limiting her exposure to potential radiation—she could only ask the house staff to bring her some books from the study. However, after a few pages, her fatigue returned. Pregnancy seemed to sap all her energy; even her usual appetite was gone despite frequent nausea.
She had no idea that Tiffany’s tweets were wreaking havoc online.
In LXL Entertainment’s boardroom, Eric’s icy expression filled the room with a palpable chill.
Several shareholders, already harboring resentment toward Ella, had begun criticizing her involvement in the escalating scandal. However, their comments were abruptly silenced by Eric’s sharp reprimand.
Although Tiffany’s tweets hinted at Ella’s involvement, there was no concrete evidence linking her to the incident. The board members exchanged uneasy glances, unsure how to proceed.
"Dismissed. I’ll handle this," Eric said coldly.
The room erupted into murmurs of confusion and dissent.
