Heaven must have a pair of watchful eyes! Carmella’s heart was doing somersaults with
excitement. She clutched at her chest, trying to calm the wild rhythm, and slowly turned
to head back into her room. The next day, a proclamation from the Macclain family hit the
headlines. In the statement, Bennett and Simone came clean about their past, confirming
that they had indeed supported KING; not only had they moved her from C City to J City,
but also had taken her on as their goddaughter. However, they disclosed that their
relationship had not been close, and at present, there was no communication between
them. A few short sentences amounted to an admission of what had been said in the post:

of thousands of shares, the Macclain family’s announcement sparked a wildfire of boycotts
against KING on the internet. KING had been the target of online vitriol more than once,
but in the past, her fans had come to her defense and endeavored to manage the
narrative. This time, however, KING’s fans were completely drowned out by the fury of the
netizens. Photos of KING attending the Sampson family wedding and serving as a
bridesmaid were plastered all over the web. The internet was awash with sarcastic jibes: [I
always wondered why KING set her sights so high; it seemed even the Macclains weren’t
good enough for her. Turns out she was clinging to the Sampson family tree!] [So that’s
how she became an international designer at such a young age, by despising the poor and
currying favour with the rich, and cozying up to the big shots]
[Designer? She’s a disgrace to the profession!] [Blacklist her! Kick her out of the country!
Since she loves fawning over foreign designers so much, then let her be gone!”] Being
said to lack in national pride and professional ethics, and to have betrayed her own
benefactors, KING had fallen from grace into the dust. Early in the morning, when Harriet
saw the news, her face registered disbelief. With Estelle already on the receiving end of a
tirade from netizens due to the fashion show, how come the Macclains decided to wade
into the fray? And the Macclains issued such a misleading statement, which was beyond

Harriet’s belief! The situation had escalated far beyond her expectations, so she drove
straight to the Macclain residence. A servant led her in, and as soon as she entered, she
saw Carmella cradling a cat in the living room. “Ms. Harriet?” Carmella stood up, looking
somewhat surprised. Harriet’s voice was cool, “Ms. Macclain, I would like to speak with Mr.
and Mrs. Macclain, if that would be convenient?” Carmella’s gaze shifted, “Is this about
KING?” (Image) (Image) Harriet scoffed, “I trust in KING’s character. I won’t be swayed by
hearsay, nor will I kick someone when they’re down.” Carmella shrugged with a smug air,
“I’m just looking out for you, Ms. Harriet. If you won’t listen, that’s your call!” (Image)
Harriet was cool and collected, “No need for formalities, I’m here for KING!”
