Addiction to Temptation: His Mischievous Sweetheart Captivates Him-Chapter 170: Natalie Vaughn Dominates Weibo

Natalie Vaughn wasn’t concerned about this hot search, understanding that due to Zane Thorne’s identity, he wouldn’t be exposed. However, she underestimated the power of paparazzi and other capital forces.

Theodore Langdon rose to fame quickly because of the contrast between his face and his music, coupled with his lively personality, love for surfing, and quick wit, which resulted in a highly loyal fanbase.

The circle wasn’t just about Langdon Entertainment; other companies and rising stars existed too. Someone like Theodore Langdon, with such strong fan loyalty, posed too big of a threat. No one wanted him to have smooth sailing all the way.

That afternoon, someone began digging into Theodore Langdon’s background, uncovering that he didn’t have any sister, and also exposing that Felix Langdon was his cousin.

Then marketing accounts started writing in various directions, saying Theodore Langdon only became famous thanks to Felix Langdon. They dug up his early school performance videos, calling them immature, and marketing accounts slandered them, questioning how he became successful with such skills. Some even attacked his identity as an original rapper, questioning whether he had a production team behind him.

Someone even pulled out photos of Natalie Vaughn going to Veridia Airport that day, with marketing accounts claiming she was just an actress in some crew, certainly not Theodore Langdon’s sister. When fans countered with photos of her being carried away by Zane Thorne, she was maliciously labeled as promiscuous.

Due to the involvement of other investors, the issue remained highly popular. Even if Felix Langdon had the power to suppress the hot search, it provided more ammunition for other investors to attack, which would have a greater impact on Theodore Langdon’s reputation.

Theodore Langdon’s manager, Noah Joyce, wasn’t worried about attacks on Theodore’s originality, because each of his songs had notes and records.

Nor did he fear people delving into how Theodore became famous. From the beginning, Felix Langdon didn’t agree to let Theodore enter the circle, naturally not giving him any convenience. Theodore made his way on his own, which led Felix to sign him. If there was any convenience as a cousin, it was only allowing Noah Joyce to manage him. But that one point couldn’t deeply affect Theodore Langdon.

What troubled Noah Joyce was Natalie Vaughn, as media outlets were already investigating intensively. Due to Zane Thorne’s special identity, the media couldn’t find any clues, putting more effort into researching Natalie Vaughn. If not stopped, it was only a matter of time before Natalie was exposed.

Everyone at Langdon Entertainment was well aware of Natalie Vaughn’s complex identity. Felix Langdon’s proposed solution could completely detach Natalie, but it would impact Theodore Langdon.

Noah Joyce did not want this outcome.

The biggest issue arose from not reclaiming Theodore Langdon’s rights to use Weibo. Theodore, being young and impetuous, started angrily confronting the detractors on Weibo directly upon seeing the slander.

"All those cursing my sister, just you wait, a lawyer’s letter will definitely be delivered to your home."

"How perverted do you have to be to think this way?"

Upon discovering Theodore Langdon was posting on Weibo, Noah Joyce immediately had someone watch over him. Things were already exploding online, with everyone trying to identify who Theodore Langdon’s sister was.

Noah Joyce, having no other choice, approached Natalie Vaughn.

"Miss Vaughn, could you please talk to President Langdon? If he does that, all of Theodore’s previous efforts will be in vain."

"What’s Felix planning to do?"

"Suppress the hot search directly and block search terms."

The current netizens are quite powerful. Natalie Vaughn inherently draws traffic, and if further investigated, it’s not impossible to uncover the Vaughn Family.

The reason Felix Langdon wants to do this is simply to protect Natalie Vaughn’s identity. Although he’s a businessman, he has considered letting Natalie continue to thrive in the entertainment industry after completing this film. Yet, he understands that for noble families, reputation is paramount.

Natalie Vaughn’s identity as the Vaughn family’s eldest daughter mustn’t be exposed. This approach, though costly and crude, is the most effective.

However, Theodore Langdon would undoubtedly be affected.

"There’s no need for such trouble. I’ll just post a Weibo."

Noah Joyce obviously thought the same.

"However, by then they’ll investigate your identity, Miss Vaughn."

Natalie let out a cold laugh.

"They’d have to succeed in finding out first."

Even if they did, what then? It wouldn’t be something the public would see.

Neither the Vaughn Family nor the Thorne Family would allow her identity to be revealed if Natalie wished to keep it private.

Natalie immediately logged onto Weibo and posted a new message.

"Theodore Langdon is my husband’s younger brother, who I’ve taken care of since childhood. He calls me sister-in-law, but I think ’sister’ sounds better, so I let him call me that. Don’t even try to dig into my identity; my husband isn’t someone to be trifled with, so beware of lawyer’s letters. See the roses in the last Weibo post? My husband has already appeased me."

Natalie posted her selfie from that day and also uploaded her flight details.

After posting, she didn’t check Weibo again, leaving it to the PR team to handle. She then called Felix Langdon.

"You’re really Theo’s real brother, huh? Aren’t you worried about hurting Theo’s feelings by doing this?"

Felix, looking at Theodore in his office, smiled and put the call on speaker.

"He doesn’t care about those things; it was his idea. He’s worried about you."

Theodore sounded downcast, his voice muffled.

"Sister-in-law, it’s all my fault for not paying attention."

Natalie, however, thought they were making a mountain out of a molehill.

"This has nothing to do with you; it was my own decision to go."

"But they insulted you, and what they said was so awful!"

Natalie chuckled.

"I’m busy with filming and don’t have time to care. Let them say what they want; I won’t let it get to me."

"But I won’t stand it. How could they insult you like that?"

Young and easily stirred because of Natalie being insulted, yet that was what Natalie liked about him.

Theodore truly treated her like a sister.

"Don’t worry about it. I just posted on Weibo; go check it out."

Felix still wasn’t in favor of Natalie’s approach.

"Sister-in-law, you’re clearly making yourself a target by doing this."

Netizens would become even more curious about Natalie’s identity and pay more attention to her drama. Should there be any flaws, they’d criticize her harshly.

"Blocking everything would still make people curious about my identity."

She chose this to avoid Theodore’s hard work going to waste.

Felix sighed deeply.

"Mr. Thorne will have my head."

Natalie quirked an eyebrow, questioning outright.

"So, you were doing this to give Zane a good answer?"

Felix: ...

"Posting Weibo and showing affection might make him happier, and if anyone digs into my identity, he’ll deal with it. Plus, it saves you a ton of money."

That made quite a bit of sense.

"Sister-in-law, could you discuss the Sunderfall Film City project with Mr. Thorne while you’re at it?"

Natalie, however, just smiled without replying.

Felix, being sharp, immediately understood Natalie’s meaning.

"What do you want, sister-in-law?"

"I want an answer."

Felix frowned.

"What answer?"

"How did he injure his left wrist in the first place?"

Felix:.....

Could he take back what he just said?
