Chapter 276 The Truth
Chapter 276 The Truth
"Ladies and gentlemen, the owner of this manor will join us later, but the mayor certainly has nothing to do with William, nor is it a property under Anna's name."
Rick knocked on the table and said in a serious voice, "Now I can tell you all responsibly that the photos exposed by William are forgeries that have undergone special image processing."
Right after Rick spoke, many reporters nodded in agreement. Everyone was seasoned in their line of business. Although the pictures’ quality was quite professional, it was not easy to escape the eyes of reporters, and it was too obvious when comparing them with the original pictures.
What was fake would always be fake.
"Okay, I believe everyone has their conclusion to the authenticity of this photo, if our Anna has no romantic association with William, are they familiar with each other enough to hang out abroad together?"
Rick continued to display the photos on the screen that was on William's account.
"Although these photos were taken at the same location with Anna's back in it, it's still far-fetched to prove they are dating."
William's face changed somewhat subtly, and he snorted rudely, "Is this also fake?"
He had all the pictures in his hand, there was no way for any others to compare the pictures.
"Mr Ling, when you were taking these pictures, didn't you think they would be seen by the locals?"
"Locals? I'm afraid they were bribed by the Dahlia entertainment, right? I also regret now that I fell for a shameless bitch like Anna, and now I'm just being played by your Dahlia entertainment."
Rick watched as William shook his head and pressed the remote control of the large screen, standing sideways.
What appeared on the screen this time was an accelerated video, but it could be clearly seen that from the time Anna started shopping until she returned to the hotel, she was all alone!
Even the gift bag was being held by her.
There was only one answer, which was that Anna didn't even date with anyone during that time!
The time-stamped in the top right corner of the screen was very clear.
William was shocked immediately and his mind was blank.
Rick didn't even have to look to know that William was about to collapse then. William just wanted to use Anna get back at Jack, and he didn't care what kind of negative impact that his actions would have towards others, he would only thought about himself.
Today, he wanted to educate this young generation of the merchant prince.
"The truth is this, Anna isn't dating anyone, she doesn't have any romantic gossip, and she’s just hanging out in the shopping street near the hotel to kill time."
Rick then released another video on the scene, from the lobby manager of the hotel where Anna was staying at the time. He explained that it was their hotel that sent two bodyguards to protect Anna that day, and the pinhole cameras on their suits had filmed the process. But of course, it was agreed by the client for the purpose of ensuring her safety.
Things were cleared up at this point.
Rick looked around the room, "Do I need to speak more? Mr Ling, you have recklessly messed up with Anna's private life, and subjecting her to cyber violence, being scolded by netizens and anti-fans. You have established your happiness on top of the others’ pain, and your behaviour is so low that you would go and bully a woman!”
"Anyone who's been with Anna all knows that she never comes forward to explain herself when she was caught in the middle of the storm. Because she is conscious, but it doesn't mean she's not hurt! Anyone who has been put under such pressure from the public would have a rough time! How would you feel if you were in her shoes?” ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
"What did Anna do to cross with you guys that you seem to determine to ruin her if she made one wrong move?”
William realized something was wrong at this time and wanted to get up and leave, but Rick expected he would do so and therefore had the staff go over to stop him, "Where is Mr. Ling going in such a hurry? There must be some unresolved business between you and Jack, right? This time, he doesn't want to settle it peacefully. What done is done, admit it like a man if you truly are one.”
"Oh, I forgot, you're just a son of a merchant prince who has no ambition at all. I shall have Dragon Entertainment to settle this debt.”
William glared angrily at Rick, but he looked calm and completely unafraid of him.
The reporters shook their heads, feeling that William had lost completely and looked disgrace this time and that he had done this to himself.
William held back his anger, shouted at Rick while putting up a strong face.
"Catch me if you can!"
Rick gave a dismissive laugh, "You? You just a bully of woman. You…”
Trash.
Scum.
Low life.
The reporters came up a lot of adjectives in their minds, what William had done today was disgraceful, and it did not go too far to describe him with these words.
William clenched his fist and he felt disgrace today! And so was the Dragon Entertainment in the future.
Meanwhile, everything at the Dahlia entertainment’s conference was also broadcasted live through the internet, Richard thought that things would come to an end as he saw William’s appearance there. Despite it was William’s fault, all he had to go was to bear the heat…
But he never expected the truth of the matter to be so...
The vice president of Dragon entertainment, who used a forged photo to embarrass a newbie actress, and shamelessly spouting nonsense, was exposed in public...
The housekeeper looked also felt ashamed as bystanders, "Master, don't worry, I'll go and fetch the young master."
"Pick him up?" Richard was so angry that he almost passed out.
......
The matter was finally clarified, and the words said by Anna’s fans before were posted online then.
At that time, a bystander replied to the post and asked, "Why didn't Anna defend herself in the first place?"
Fans replied immediately, "Even if she did, would you believe it?"
"It would have been hard enough for Anna to revive, but there are just people who are jealous of her success and fame. And therefore, to use this kind of moves to anti her!"
"We will always support Anna and protect her from being hurt by these rumours!"
"We'll stay with Anna!"
The fans formed the Anna Support Group spontaneously, and they divided the work among themselves. Therefore, formed a very systematic anti- rumours group, where some people responsible for collecting information, while others for counter-scolding form the anti-fans, and others as the liaison.
Seeing the fans protect themselves so much, Anna was very touched, and in the future, she would work even harder as an actress, for herself, and also for the fans who liked her.
Just when things quieted down, a piece of unexpected news appeared.
The president of Dahlia entertainment, Jack Jiang, opened a personal fan page, and by 9 p.m. that day, the number of followers had already exceeded 200,000.
