Chapter 289 Charmine looked at the lobsters in the frying pan, then at the doe-eyed Chris beside her. âGive me two hours,â she said to Eric, âIâll be there in two hours.â
âOkay.â
Charmine hung up and continued to fry the lobsters. âGet the plates ready, Momo,â said Charmine, âdinner will be ready soon.â I âYay!â Chris made himself busy as her little helper.
It was only after Chris left her side did Charmine fish out her phone and saw the headlines all over her feed.
[Omega Founder Criticizes Charmine And Scarlet)
(Genius McKenzie Houston And No. 1 Supermodel Kelly Milan Support Gigi]
[Gigi And Daughter Sobbing]
Every article had the same pattern; every single one was critical toward Charmine and Scarlet. Her Twitter was bombarded with direct messages asking her why would she save a âb*tchâ like Scarlet.
Worse still, the douche Johnson Spencer finally came out to say his piece, but...
[I admit my mistake and I failed to resist the seduction. Iâll promise to change into a better man, using the rest of my life to make up to my Gigi and my daughter.]
He was obviously implying that Scarlet was the one to initiate seducing him, that Scarlet was the one who damaged their family!
Once Johnson posted that tweet, the post instantly garnered retweets and went viral. It almost crashed the Twitter app, too.
Some netizens also exposed that Scarlet was staying in Rising Hawk, protected by Charmine.
With that, a swarm of netizens posted on Charmineâs feed.
What an unscrupulous company! Hand over the third-wheeler! Make her apologize!
[Even if you paid a large sum to sign Scarlet, you should know which to choose between money and dignity!
[I was once your fan, Boss Jordan, but what youâre doing is disappointing! The third-wheeler is the most disgusting b*tch in the world! Whyâd you protect her?]
(Boycott RisingHawk! Boycott Charmine! Boycott all of their products and representing companies!
(Close down Rising Hawk! Make Charmine go bankrupt and get kicked out of the entertainment industry!)
As if someone led the wave, everyone directed their rage toward Charmine and Rising Hawk, and all companies Charmine had represented were boycotted and criticized by the netizens. Meanwhile, brands like Chanel and Guci had to take down all of their photos and articles of Charmine. Producers even ended their contracts with the artists related to Rising Hawk, and anything that had links with RisingHawk were boycotted as well.
Rising Hawk faced impending doom.
Charmineâs brows furrowed. The situation got messier, but the information she needed was still in progress. If nothing stopped the mess, Scarlet and even RisingHawk would collapse! They had to up their speed.
She called Kay and instructed, âBring up all of your men, and investigate using the badge The lobsters were cooked by then, and Charmine scooped up meat and placed it in the rolls. While Charmine was occupied with many things that needed her attention, Charmine still stayed back and had dinner with Chris and Anthony.
It was the first for Chris to have tasted lobster rolls. Anthony never allowed him to eat these kinds of food, thus Chris happily munched the rolls with an obviously satisfied look on his little face.
Anthony, on the other hand, was not into the meal as much. His mind was occupied with the situation online, and he turned to look at Charmine. âDo you need my help?â
âNo need,â dismissed Charmine, âIâll be able to sort these out soon.â
She could tell that McKenzie was involved with this mess. She knew Kelly wanted to destroy her RisingHawk while McKenzie wanted to ruin her reputation!
If Charmine allowed Anthony to intervene in such a trivial matter, McKenzie might think that Charmine was taking advantage of Anthony! She had to prove to McKenzie that she was no less competent than her!
After dinner, Charmine looked at the time; it was almost done. âWhy donât you take a nap, Momo?â said Charmine to Chris.
âMommy needs to make a trip to the company, but Iâll come back later.â âMomo wants to go with Mommy!â Chris put down the lobster roll in his hands and wiped his mouth.
