Chapter 274
As the direction of the online discourse shifted, everyone began digging for more information, and Pearl couldn’t help but smile proudly.
Richard played with her hair affectionately. “This beautiful brain of yours must be tired.”
Pearl shook her head. “Not at all Did you get someone to find the video of Mobius?”
Richard smiled. “I knew my clever girl would figure it out.”
“But where’s Mobius? Shouldn’t he say something?”
“He was drugged last night in a room at a bar. I found him unconscious, and he’s still not awake.”
Pearl immediately suspected that Hugo was behind Mobius’s drugging. There was no doubt that he was involved in this whole
mess.
“It’s fine. He’ll be awake soon. What we need to monitor is the direction of the discourse online.”
They all opened their social media app, and as expected, the posts about Mobius and Esther were gradually being buried by other news. It seemed that Lawson Enterprises was trying to divert attention away from their involvement in the scandal. Ironically, the person they were scapegoating was Sophia, which Pearl considered karma.
“Well, this has come to an end. As long as Hugo does anything more, he would bring attention to himself, so he would probably thread carefully after this.”
Esther sighed in relief as she looked at Pearl with gratitude. “Pearl, thank you for helping me. I wouldn’t have known what to do without you.”
“Don’t mention it. We got you into this mess because you’re close to us. Just be more careful in the future.”
Pearl noticed that Esther was the only one handling the situation and asked, “Where’s your manager? Isn’t she supposed to help you with some PR?”
Esther seemed indifferent about it. “I’m used to this. She never gets involved when something major happens, so I have to handle things on my own.”
“What a useless manager. You should terminate your contract. I can get you signed with a new company.” Pearl’s smile held a hint of mischief. “How much longer do you have left with your current contract?”
Esther thought for a moment. “I had a three-year contract, and it’s ending next month.”
“Perfect. Go to Brilliance then. I promise you’ll become an A-lister and only get the best film offers.”
“Brilliance? Didn’t you send Clem Gutor there? I wouldn’t want to bother you…”
Pearl smiled. “Of course not. I’ll even have Clem be your manager.”
“Thanks a lot then!” Esther was thrilled about leaving her current company. They only capitalized on her looks, but she aspired to work in high-quality movies and TV shows, rather than just doing advertisements.
“I think most of the fans outside have left. Let’s go out first.” Pearl stood up and bid Esther farewell.
Once Pearl had left, Esther looked at Christian with disappointment, then sighed. “Chris, I really don’t understand why you did all that. Why didn’t you ask me for help instead of taking out a loan?”
