"With the way things are going now, doesn't it indirectly confirm my relationship with Wayne?" Grace said, just as her phone dinged.

After reading the text message, her eyes darkened.

Zoey replied, "If you don't deny it, the public will probably take it as confirmation of your relationship with Wayne. But this might not be a bad thing.

"Aren't you trying to get into content creation and creating an account? Given the heat from this incident, you could use it to attract traffic—" Before Zoey could finish, Grace immediately rejected the idea, "No." Grace's eyes were fixed on the new text message from Wayne, which was similar to what Zoey had suggested.

Wayne was also a content creator. He understood the need to use traffic from the incident.

The scandal involving him and Grace had gained unprecedented attention. Although they hadn't interacted much, leveraging this hype for publicity didn't seem like a bad idea to him.

Thus, Wayne also intended to neither confirm nor deny the news.

But Grace was straightforward. "Zoey, helpcontrol the public opinion. In ten minutes, I'll release a statement." Upon hearing this, Zoey couldn't help but tease, "Gracie, are you doing this because you're worried Xander might get the wrong idea?" Grace hummed in agreement, confirming it.

Zoey exclaimed in surprise, "Gracie, you're so cool! You're wasting such a great opportunity to avoid a misunderstanding with Xander." After all, people online nowadays went to great lengths for attention, using any means necessary.

There was nothing they wouldn't do.

But Grace disdained such tactics. She refused to resort to hype to gain attention and popularity! "Gracie, | would do the sif | were you. There's no need to let baseless rumors affect your relationship." Zoey joked. She clicked around while trying to calm Grace down.

"Don't worry, I'll find out who uploaded the pictures. It shouldn't be hard to have them delete the post." But before Zoey could finish, she sensed something was amiss. "Gracie, these photos might not have been leaked by accident. It might have been a deliberate move by someone." Zoey noticed the photos were all posted by marketing accounts, using tactics and tricks typical of these news accounts.

As a publicist herself, Zoey was all too familiar with these tricks.

"I think we should investigate who is behind this." Jessica and Susan had initially thought that uploading the photos would lead to Grace being attacked by brainless fans.

So they were utterly shocked to see the tide turn. 80% of the comments online were rooting for the couple.

Jessica looked at the comments, infuriated.

She slammed her phone and roared, "What's going on? Are these people blind? We can't just let Grace off the hook! "These netizens must be wrong. Maybe they are paid bots by Grace. Does she think she can control public opinion with smoney? In her dreams!" Seeing this, Susan asked, "What should we do now? The situation has turned out completely different to what we expected. It's backfiring on us. Moreover, if Benjamin finds out about this ..." Susan couldn't help but shiver, feeling a growing sense of dread.
