Chapter 129

"What's trending?"

Effie looked puzzled. She hadn't seen anything trending online.

She was never one for gossip anyway-unless someone called or texted her directly, she rarely bothered with online news. She knew most of it was just attention-seeking nonsense, people trying to stir up drama for clicks.

So when Shirley brought up some hot topic, Effie was genuinely lost.

She was completely at sea.

But then she remembered the strange looks her colleagues had given her earlier. Suddenly, it clicked.

This trending topic-was it about her?

Shirley saw the realization dawn in Effie's eyes and rushed to explain, “Effie, someone posted photos of you late last night, claiming you're the other woman— saying you're having an affair and breaking up someone's relationship. The internet's going crazy over it."

Effie had gotten a bit of attention online after the jewelry competition a while back. The internet never forgets, so some people still remembered her name.
