Her confidence threw the agent off. Honestly, the gossip was so out there it barely seemed credite

After mulling it over, he calmed down but stayed cautious. “Stop the bots quick–she’s still Seafarione

Trash talk was normal in the biz, and some troll attacks were small fry, but if Nyx got mad and sicced Seatation on them, it would be troublesome.

Her initial fire cooled, regret creeping in as her eyes flickered. “Fine, got it.”

She opened her phone to call the troll company, then froze, her face paling visibly.

“What’s wrong?” the agent asked, his chest tightening too.

She didn’t answer, staring at her screen, muttering in disbelief, “How? Just one morning, So fast?”

In mere hours, the troll ring got flipped upside down, exposed, and pinned to the wall by official posts,

[Cracking Down on bots, Protecting a Clean Web]

[Beware the Legal Risks of “bots“-Stay Lawful, Don’t Cross the Line for Petty Cash!]

[Cut Off the Gray Market, Restore Industry Integrity]

Every troll outfit she’d hired got nabbed as examples, old crimes dug up too–enough to sink them deep. The web cheered

[About time they nailed these bots–lawless jerks.]

[Knew they were full of it, blind hate–paid off!]

[Lol, unmasked so quick.]

Worse, leaks pointed at her–people cursed her name, claiming she hired them. Nyx’s fans, fuming from the morning’s fights, were out for blood.

Watching her follower count plummet, her heart sank. Even her own fans turned, ashamed they’d backed her, calling it a stain like a rap sheet.

“This is your ‘no big deal?” the agent said after a long pause, chuckling dryly. “Pack up and lay low–ditch the spotlight,” he added, wiping his face and walking out fast, not looking back.

He had to cut ties quick or get dragged down too. He wasn’t even sure if he’d dodged the big shots‘ hit list.

Morning work wrapped up, and Nyx ate lunch between her two partners as the head producer apologized, wringing his hands.

That’s when she learned the hater was Breaking Chains‘ lead actress, leaving her speechless.

‘Didn’t she quit the show herself? Why’s she acting like I stole it, all bitter?‘ she thought.

The producer gritted his teeth. “She flaked on me, and I knew she was shady then–didn’t think she’d be this low!”

‘Not just low–plain dumb. She messed with the wrong person, he thought. He glanced up at the two big shots flanking Nyx, swallowing hard, eyes darting. ‘Messing with Nyx is basically suicide.’

Nyx missed his look, checking her phone to see Marilyn’s posts urging fans to keep the web civil and not take revenge offline.

Eye for an eye was fair, but moderation mattered–violence wasn’t cool in a civilized world. With the star speaking, fans followed, calming down.

[Got it! I don’t curse!]
