NovelBookAlessia nodded, handing the phone back to Stella before calmly returning to her
food.
“Lessie, you didn’t leak it, did you?” Queenie asked, scrolling through the comments as she glanced at Alessia.
Even though Stella was living abroad, she often shared stories from her life in their group chat, so Queenie was
well aware of her heroic moment at the bar.
“Nope.” Alessia arched an eyebrow. “I figured from the start someone would try to spin this story, so | had Lillian
talk to the bar owner right away. We made a copy of the security footage, too. In a few minutes, Lillian will have
the PR team release a statement.”
“But whoever started this rumor isn’t stupid, right?” Queenie said. “They must know the full video could surface
and expose them.”
“That's why | made sure to clear things with the owner first.” Alessia shot Queenie a look, and Queenie instantly
understood.
This trending scandal was nothing but a move in Alessia’s plan to quickly build up Liam's reputation.
“If that’s the case, why didn’t you just shut it down from the start?” Stella was puzzled. “I mean, your brother
just debuted. Even if the rumors aren't true, having them out there can’t be good for him, right?”
“That's exactly why | wanted him to respond however he liked,” Alessia replied,
unfazed.
“Huh?” Stella blinked, confused.
Queenie chuckled and pushed her phone toward Stella so she could see the screen. [“Do it again, I'm game.”]
Just a few words-enough to confirm the incident happened, but also to show

where Liam stood.
But before the intecould swarm him with outrage, A&C Entertainment's official account immediately posted
the full video and a detailed statement.
The reversal cso fast it left everyone reeling-and the final touch, a lawyer's letter, made their position
crystal clear.

HappyGirl: What's going on? Am | supposed to be shocked or not? Is this a scandal or a nothing-burger?
Orange: Thought it was just a bar brawl, turns out he was the hero! Love it! What a guy! [heart eyes]
Adele: Even the bar owner cforward to clarify. | take back everything | said and I'm officially a fan now.
It's You: | knew my boy would never let us down. If he’s upset, he should do a cover of Tristan Hollis’s ‘Bruised’
for us.
The thread quickly filled with laughter, leaving everyone unsure whether to feel bad for Liam or just laugh at the
diehard fan's devotion.
Stella scrolled through a few more comments and shook her head.
“You have to admit, these people flip sides fast.”
“Yeah, but the one who started the
smear campaign is probably that
obsessed fan, of wat Wabi

“Lessie’s always had a sharp eye,” Queenie said. “No wonder your little pub is always packed.”
