Chapter 78: Reactions

All the viewers who had watched that news broadcast were stunned.

They hadn’t expected to encounter such a shocking, scandalous piece of news when they sat in front of their television that night.

However, as soon as they had realized what the news was about, they quickly called their friends, telling them to watch the broadcast immediately.

Moreover, many of them had taken their phones to share about it on the internet and the forums they were members of.

In the forums dedicated to discussions related to Aren, this broadcast sparked especially heated reactions.

Sasha was also a member of such forums, and while she watched the news broadcast, messages in the forum would flood rapidly as soon as a piece of news was revealed.

When Linda first appeared, most of the comments were like:

[Who is she?]

[Where is Aren?]

[We are here to watch Aren’s interview.]

However, as soon as Linda revealed the purpose of the broadcast, the comments took a different tone.

[Which big shot agency is she talking about?]

[Whom did Aren offend?]

[So it wasn’t his fault that he got replaced?]

Then, Linda revealed further information on Lisa’s predicament. She explained Lucian’s plan in detail and why it was difficult for Lisa to refuse.

[Poor Lisa😭]

[She was being pressured into sleeping with him like this? Such a devious trap.]

[I had only heard about this being a practice in the entertainment industry but never understood how it worked. Now I know why actresses fall into such traps. You really can’t trust anyone.]

[I thought Titan Crest Entertainment was the most reputable agency in our country. Stars like Ethan Starfall and Adrian Jones are signed with them, after all. Never thought the top agency would be the worst one.]

Linda then narrated the incident with Lisa’s manager and Aren appearing to save her.

[Woah, it’s like straight out of a drama.]

[+1. Aren’s timing couldn’t be any more perfect.]

[After hearing this, I’m becoming a fan of Aren all over again. He really didn’t care about the consequences and punched the manager, just to save Lisa. I’ve heard that actors avoid offending agents of big agencies, fearing their retaliation.]

Linda moved on, explaining Aren’s plan as the evidence began playing.

[Never took Aren for a mastermind. Glad to be proven wrong.]

[For real. If Aren wasn’t intelligent enough to deal with this situation, we might not get to see the truth. Also, Lisa might’ve fallen into that bastard’s trap.]

[Proud to be Aren’s fan. If he wanted, he could’ve opted to ignore Lisa and not get into this mess at all. After all, which celebrity in the industry has the guts to offend the top entertainment agency of the country?]

[AAAH! Just realized—Aren’s as cool as Shin.]

In the evidence video playing on the screen, the audio belonged to the bodyguards inspecting Lisa before allowing her inside. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

[This Lucian Valcourt is clearly experienced at this. He must have trapped other actresses as well.]

[How meticulous! The bodyguards even snatched her phone and handbag to not let her record anything.]

Since there was no visual and only Lucian’s and Lisa’s voices could be heard, the viewers could message even while hearing what was happening.

As a result, the comment count surged.

[Is that his voice? Such a fake act to appear polite.]

[What is he even pretending for? Hasn’t he already tried pressuring Lisa to sleep with him? She already knows his true face.]

[!!!]

[Is he really trying to lock the door? What’s even that excuse of wanting to discuss in private? At least be creative.]

[Whoa! Such a tempting offer. Even I would’ve given it a thought—Just kidding, guys😜.]

[He is truly a pro at this. I wonder if he has gotten training from his seniors at Titan Crest Entertainment, hehehe.]

Then, Lisa walked to leave as he threatened in his cold voice, the forum reacting instantly:

[Whoa... He just did a complete 180 in his behavior.]

[Now he is resorting to threats after failing to tempt her with his empty promises, just great.]

[This is truly terrifying. My cousin has just joined an agency as an influencer. I’m worried about her.]

Lisa fell to her knees, crying to let her leave.

[This is such a disgusting situation. I can’t believe this is real.]

[+1. If there wasn’t this evidence, I wouldn’t have believed this actually happened.]

[How can someone be so rotten? Does he not have any humanity?]

Then, Lucian called her to be in love with Aren, and she replied with—

"How did you know?"

The fans picked up on that immediately, commenting frantically.

[Isn’t this a love confession? She just blurted out her feelings.]

[Aren should have heard it too, right? Will he ignore her feelings even after this?]

[AAAH! I don’t know if I should be worried about what happens to Lisa after this or should be excited that she admitted her feelings for Aren?]

As Lucian explained how he knew about it, the comments shifted:

[So this really happened on the same evening as when that article about their dating rumors went viral.]

[Wait!! I just realized. Those pictures were taken when Aren rescued Lisa from her manager and took her to the hotel.]

Afterwards, Lucian invited Lisa for the wine, persistently:

[Why does he want to drink wine with her? What is he planning?]

[She is refusing you; why do you keep pestering her?]

[How shameless can one be?]

Then, the television screen switched to video from the spy cam Lisa had installed in the plant pot:

[Whoa, such a big house. This Lucian scum is clearly loaded.]

[Lisa looks terrified. I feel so bad for her.😭]

Lucian returned with the wines.

[Is that him? Lucian Valcourt? Truly a villainous face.]

[I bet he has mixed something shady in that wine.]

Lisa asked for snacks.

[Good one, Lisa. Now swap the glasses.]

[🤦Why did she do it so clumsily? Wouldn’t he have noticed that she swapped glasses?]

[She might be nervous, and it doesn’t look like he noticed.]

However, then the screen showed Lisa swapping the glasses again.

[!!!]

[Why did she swap the glasses again? She has her original glass back now.]

[What’s the use of swapping if you are going to end up with the original glass anyway.]

However, when they saw Lucian getting affected, they were baffled:

[What happened? How did Lucian end up getting drugged?]

[How did Lisa know which glass of wine was spiked?]

[Am I too stupid to figure it out? Can anyone explain it to me?]

Then, the drugged Lucian jumped on Lisa, grabbing her neck:

[AAAHH! Is he going to do it? I can’t watch it!]

He got kicked in the balls.

[Well done, Lisa, hahaha.]

[You had me worried there. Thank God she is safe.]

Then, Aren rushed inside, and Lisa ran into his arms.

[Awww, this is the sweetest thing I watched today.]

[She is so scared. She just survived a r*pe attempt. This is serious guys.]

[Guess what. My father is a cop, and he told me that Lucian was released yesterday because some higher-up ordered it.]

[What?? We need to get justice for Lisa. Scum like Lucian should be punished severely.]

[Yeah. Let’s tag the police department and ask them for an explanation.]
