Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 573 Scandal Chess

Now, the priority was to protect Celeste.

Zelena's eyes narrowed as she made up her mind. "Then we'll go to court!"

A trial could take six months or even a year.

By the time it was over, who would still remember this?

The label on Polly wouldn't be so easily removed!

But Zelena had miscalculated.

The next morning, a video of Horace's apology was posted publicly on Facebook.

He apologized to Polly and admitted that he had been paid to spread defamatory lies about her.

The video sparked a new wave of widespread discussion.

Polly was vindicated.

In the entertainment industry, Zelena wasn't the only one who knew how to buy trending topics and mobilize online support.

Following Violeta's advice, Polly also spent money to push the narrative, subtly suggesting that Zelena was the one who had bribed Horace. Zelena's assistant being taken into custody became a trending topic, and once again, Zelena's name hit the top of the search charts. This time, she wasn't riding the wave-she was being crushed by it.

Previously, it was Zelena who had sent Polly to the top of the trends, making her the subject of widespread online discussion.

Now, Zelena herself was caught in the storm, becoming a target of public scrutiny.
