Chapter 80 Charleston, You Are Toxic
"What do you mean, 20 million dollars?" Zachary followed behind Stephanie as he asked in confusion.
"I pushed Margaret a little at the banquet and now she's asking me to compensate 20 million dollars for
her dress. Dream on!" Stephanie said unwillingly.
Zachary grabbed the document over.
He looked at it carefully and found that it did have legal merit.
However...
"Stephanie, perhaps you can make use of this." Zachary smiled and said.
"Make use of what?"
...
Five minutes later, Stephanie posted a moment on Facebook.
She posted, "There's a reason one would go against someone. Why do I have to pay 20 million dollar
for an ordinary dress?"
She posted it with a picture of the compensation information.
What a busy day for netizens.
They were busy watching the live broadcast, tracking the most searched, scolding Stephanie and
supporting Margaret all at the same time.
Moreover, with the Ancient Star advertisement clip officially being released online, people were not
blind to what they saw. They were fascinated by Margaret's role, Tiana.
She looked like an innocent and alluring little elf!
Aside from men, even women adored it.
The live broadcast had many people tuning in to it due to Stephanie's recent popularity. Thus, the live
broadcast video was circulated around very quickly.
It also quickly made Margaret known to the world.
The people particularly wanted to see the two's reaction.
Margaret did not have a Facebook account, so netizens could only stalk Stephanie's account for any
possible development of the drama that was happening.
Then they saw that Stephanie had uploaded a new post.
Due to Stephanie's shrew-like attitude at the banquet that day, a lot of people had stopped being her
fan while some were still on the fence about leaving her fandom because of her amazing dance.
When Stephanie's fans saw the post, they immediately piped down and regained their calmness.
The post was flooded with comments about it. "Ha, she wants Stephanie to compensate 20 million
dollars for a dress? Is Margaret crazy?"
"I guess she must be very poor. Stephanie is so kind-hearted. If she were to go against someone, then
that person must have gone overboard."
"Margaret who? I've never heard of her. She's just a low-ranking actor here to take advantage of our
Stephanie. We don't give a d*mn about the spokesperson. Stephanie is the real daughter of the
wealthy Simons family. Do you really think she'd be short of money?"
...
There was no way to alter Stephanie's behavior in the live broadcast.
However, Stephanie's post did make it difficult for many netizens to pick a side.
After all, not everything in the entertainment industry can be taken at face value. It would be very
embarrassing if they trusted the wrong side.
...
The banquet came to a smooth end.
Margaret's behavior had left a good impression on many people.
Lacy was already waiting in the nanny car for her. When she saw Margaret coming over, she could not
help but sigh, "Margaret, you were really stunning today."
"Was I not stunning yesterday?" Margaret said with a smile.
"You are! You are always stunning!"
Margaret was obviously in an excellent mood. She suddenly thought of something and said, "Help me
create a Facebook account."
As Mr. Regar said before, it would be very convenient for her to promote products if she had a
Facebook account.
Lacy nodded and immediately created an account with Margaret's mobile phone. Then she handed the
phone to her.
The first thing Margaret did was search for Riley Jewelry's official account. Then she followed the NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
account and posted a Facebook.
"Hello, Riley Jewelry @Rilly Jewelry Official Account."
Soon, Riley Jewelry reposted Margaret's post and replied.
"Hello there, lady @Margaret Simons."
The netizens had been paying a close eye to Riley Jewelry and Stephanie's subsequent actions.
When they saw Riley Jewelry's latest post, they were all shocked that Margaret had actually created a
Facebook account!
A large number of netizens interacted with the post, which made Margaret's mobile phone keep ringing
with notifications.
Margaret almost threw her mobile phone out the car window.
She opened the Facebook app and checked. There were so many replies and notifications that the app
almost crashed.
She quickly adjusted her post settings so others could not reply to her post.
Margaret let out a sigh of relief as she clicked on her account.
She had a few hundred thousand fans following her already when it had barely been ten minutes since
she created her account.
This was wild.
Her first post had over ten thousand comments.
"Whoa, the Goddess has created an account. I'm really hooked on Tiana."
"After watching the video, I instantly changed from being a fan of Stephanie to a fan of Margaret. I'm a
sucker for beauty and I have no principles whatsoever."
"I can relate. Margaret is too gorgeous and attractive."
There were positive comments, and then there were the negative ones that mostly aimed at insulting
Margaret.
It was no surprise that most negative comments were from Stephanie's fans.
One of the comments read: "She blackmailed Stephanie over a stupid dress for twenty million dollars.
She must have gone crazy from being poor. She did this just to become famous. Look at her sly face.
Who knows how many beds she had climbed on to be here!"
Margaret's eyes widened in confusion.
How did they know about the 20 million dollars?
Could it be..?
After Margaret searched for Stephanie's account and read her lasted post, she immediately understood
what was going on.
Margaret was now wearing a plain white dress, and the makeup on her face had been removed.
The dress had been sent back to Charleston.
A dress personally designed by Madam Ally was nothing short of a valuable item. Naturally, it came at
a very high cost.
As the dress had been ruined by another, it shouldn't be that shocking or that big of a deal to ask the
culprit to compensate 20 million dollars for it.
Suddenly, Margaret's phone rang.
"Where are you?" It was Charleston's deep voice.
"On my way home."
"Okay." The other end immediately hung up the phone.
Margaret stared at the phone in silence.
He hung up just like that?
Margaret's eyes widened in disbelief.
She had already mentally prepared herself to be bothered by Charleston.
However, he just casually hung up the phone. Margaret couldn't stop feeling bothered by this.
Margaret felt like slapping herself when she realised what she was thinking about.
"You feel annoyed when he pesters you." She had a mini monologue in her head.
"And now, when he doesn't pester you, you feel disappointed!"
"You can't think that way!"
Margaret wailed internally.
Lacy noticed Margaret acting weirdly. She could not help but ask, "Margaret, are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Margaret came to her senses and patted Lacy's head. "Have a good rest tonight. There will
be a battle tomorrow."
Since something like this had happened today, there was no way Stephanie would let this slide so
easily when she returned to Galaxy Entertainment the next day.
"Ah?" The innocent assistant looked puzzled.
...
The car stopped at the building.
Margaret was wearing a pair of sunglasses. She returned home and opened the door. The moment she
entered the room, she immediately realized that something was wrong.
Her senses were triggered, and she grew instantly alert of her surroundings. Her beautiful eyes darted
around the dark room.
Someone was in the room. Who was it?
Her hand searched frantically in the dark for the light switch before turning the lights on.
After seeing the figure on the sofa, Margaret's first thought was-
"Ha, I knew this man wouldn't give up so easily. As expected, he would come after me." For some
reason, she felt like she had him at her fingertips and she was secretly happy about this. She then let
out a sigh of relief!
Her second thought was-
"Are you crazy? Why did you have that first thought? Shouldn't you be wondering why this jerk is here
in your house?"
Margaret felt like she was fighting in a losing battle.
What kind of curse did this enchanter Charleston put on her?
