Chapter 1055 Actually, I Was Giving Him a Chance Netizens were quick to catch the whiff of gossip.
That popular account wasted no tupdating: [Selena's mom's a prostitute, her dad's a rapist, and her brother's a gambler.] The post was pretty convincing, even had sphotos of Delia and Kyle getting booted from S.M Corporation and kicked out of Adams Manor.
The account's tone was super mocking: [You all wanna be her, but don't you know she's a joke in the circle? Who'd look up to someone with that kind of background? How'd she even get where she is now?] This question got thrown to the netizens, and seeing those photos, they bought it hook, line, and sinker.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThose who wanted to be like Selena felt embarrassed and got mad immediately.
[Someone from a family like that can't be good. No wonder Sophia ended up in the hospital. Selena's probably just using these actors to make money, not protect them.] [A rapist's daughter, gross. I was so misled. So, the account saying Selena's a socialite must be fake, right?] [Her whole family's criminals! How's she still in the public eye and running a company? Something's definitely off.] [Maybe she slept her way to the top.] The trending topic blew up, with netizens furiously bashing Selena.
S.M Corporation's PR team scrambled to contact Selena, but Raymond had already turned off her phone.
With no other option, the higher-ups reached out to Ronald, who then called Raymond.
Raymond and Selena had just fallen asleep, his hand gently patting her back.
When Raymond heard the news, he froze, then got out of bed. He checked the trending topic, and anger flashed in his eyes.
He left the bedroom and headed to the study, where John was waiting. "Take down this trending topic," he ordered.
John nodded and made a call right away.

Richard laughed, "Raymond, what do you mean by that? Tessa's got a weak heart. If anything happens to her, you won't handle the Smith family's retaliation." Raymond replied coldly, "Survival of the fittest. If her heart's weak, she should stay home. If she dies because of her own actions, then she deserves it." "Damn you! You..." Richard started, but Raymond hung up.
Richard's face darkened, and he checked his phone. Seeing the trending topic, he felt a headache coming on. He called Tessa, "Did you start the trending topic?" Tessa answered, "Yeah, Richard, I couldn't hold back anymore." Richard took a deep breath, "Do you think Raymond will tolerate you just because you're a Smith?" Tessa raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Let's see how he plans to deal withthen."
Richard warned, "Tessa, don't mess around. Raymond's almost as crazy as that lunatic Nathanf you keep pushing him, he'll definitely cY after you." Tessa asked, "Richard, didn't you promise not to get involved in these matters?"
Richard frowned and stood up, "I'm to calling Lawrence to make sure you don't cause trouble and people blme for not watching you."
Tessa said, "Richard, I'm not afraid of Raymond. He thinks he's givinga chance but actually, I'm giving him a chance." Tessa touched her heart. If she used her illness to force Raymond to marry her, he wouldn't have a choice.
Right now, Tessa just wanted to mess with Selena. If she got bored of that, then Selena would have to go.
