Master of his heart (Brielle and Max)

Chapter 925

This critic was a big deal in the film world, practically a legend. If he trashed a movie, it was game over-people would mock it endlessly. But if he praised it, you could bet it'd be raking in awards left and right. His reviews were the real deal-no fluff, no bias. But this time, he threw his weight behind "Solitary Strides," the latest from Stellar Stage Entertainment. The comment sections online went wild, unsure how to react. There was even a director who once tried to bribe him, only to have the critic publicly shame the movie, tanking its box office performance. If Keiran was the toughest actor in the industry, this critic was his match in the film review world. Thanks to his powerful endorsement, even the skeptics started buying tickets to see "Solitary Strides," while the haters kept up their online jeers.

Stellar Stage Entertainment's debut was under a microscope, with everyone from the general public to folks like William keeping a close eye on the box office.

William sneered as he plotted. "Keep those bots busy trashing Stellar Stage Entertainment. And while you're at it, smear Aubree, the leading lady. Say she's got a shady personal life, that she couldn't cut it in Beaconsfield's social circles, so she turned to showbiz." Destroying a woman's reputation was easy and awful-just hint that her personal life was messy, and she'd be damned. Slut-shaming was vile but effective, leaving women defenseless.

It wasn't long before searches about Stellar Stage Entertainment and Aubree were trending, thanks to William's scheming. They shot up to the top five, right alongside gossip about Max and Brielle.

William had really shelled out for this, so the smear campaign was huge, convincing those who hadn't seen the movie that it was trash. Within an hour, the public seemed ready to bury Stellar Stage Entertainment in mud.
