True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules

Chapter 206

As the online chatter intensified, before Joseph’s PR team could even step in, several anonymous posts began popping up in the comment section of Hanson’s lengthy post, claiming they had been harassed by Joseph on the same film set in the past.

The internet exploded with outrage, and even Raines came forward to admit that although he had never been harassed, Joseph did have a tendency to be overly affectionate during filming in the name of brotherly love.

Joseph, in his livestream, saw the cascading news online and was so furious his eyes nearly turned red. He completely forgot he was still in his live stream and bolted up from his chair, exclaiming, “This online crap, it’s all made up. I didn’t do a thing.”

He turned to the guests beside him, trying to find someone to support him, “Don’t believe everything you read online. How could I be that kind of person? I’m not, and this is slander.”

But from Kane to Mervin, no one spoke up.

They all remembered what Winnie had said before. They trusted Winnie’s judgment more than Joseph’s.

After all, whether it was Naylor or Mae, or even the B&B owner, Winnie’s judgment was always right.

The guests remained silent, but Ned couldn’t just stand by. He advised, “Joe, take a breath. We’re still on air.”

But Joseph was beyond calming. He never imagined Hanson would dare to come forward and expose him. Wasn’t Hanson afraid of being cyberbullied, or looked at differently?

Joseph had always been brazen, secure in the belief that these lesser–known actors couldn’t stir up any trouble.

Big–name actors like Raines, on the other hand, wouldn’t dare do something so carelessly. What on earth was happening now?

Sean had been watching the situation unfold from the moment the others had started checking their feeds, his head cocked to the side as he read the rapid–fire comments scrolling past on the live stream.

It didn’t take long for him to grasp what was going on,

“I told you he was strange, but you wouldn’t listen to me.”

Sean couldn’t help but interject, as the audience, who thought Sean had left, started calling for him in the chat once they heard his voice.
