Forbidden Passion
Chapter 150 Twitter

Theodore looked up at her, "Aren't you blaming me for not letting you make friends? From now on, I won't interfere with that anymore." Phoebe stared at him, stunned.

She felt she must have been so manipulated by him that she was suffering from Stockholm syndrome. Now that he suddenly said he wouldn't interfere with her friendships, she didn't feel happy but rather scared and lost. Theodore finished the coffee in his cup in one gulp, stood up, and said, "Thank you for the coffee; I'm going upstairs."

Phoebe watched his figure disappear outside the door, her heart wavering and helpless. Why did he suddenly say these things to her?

Was it because Vanessa had come back and he had found his love again, so it didn't matter what happened to her anymore?

In fact, she had been constantly looking forward to this day for the past three years.

But now that the day had come, she didn't feel the sense of relief she had imagined.

Especially since he had also thanked her, with a tone so distant that it felt like he had already decided to cut ties with her completely.

Phoebe felt uneasy all day, and at seven in the evening, when Twitter traffic was at its peak, a trending topic suddenly emerged, with the hashtag #VanessaInjured Hand# shooting to number one on the trending list. Initially, the discussion was minimal, with only marketing accounts continuously sharing it.

Ordinary people hardly knew who Vanessa was. Vanessa's fans stormed the forums, enlightening the public, and that was when everyone learned that Vanessa was a piano queen.

When John saw the trending topic, he immediately rushed into Phoebe's office to report it.

Phoebe immediately took out her phone to check Twitter, and the top trending topic was related to Vanessa. She clicked into it, and the public opinion had already begun to ferment.

The content of the trending topic was actually about Vanessa posting a photo on Twitter of her injured hand.

In the photo, the bloodstains on the gauze were still fresh, clearly taken right after she pinched her injured palm in the early hours of the morning.

The Twitter post was also made in the early hours, seemingly to garner sympathy from the public, but in reality, it was to let Theodore know that her hand was bleeding again through public sentiment.

When the time came, Theodore would surely ask her about it, and she would pretend to mention it casually, causing trouble for Theodore to come to her.

It had to be said, her tactics were much more sophisticated than anticipated.

The square was full of netizens who loved to watch the drama unfold, and everyone knew Vanessa was a piano queen; her hands were considered to be priceless treasures.

Netizens sympathized with her on one hand, and on the other, they cursed the management company for being inhumane.

Following closely behind, the hashtag #QUEENEntertainmentInhumane# also climbed up the trending list, quickly reaching second place.

In the comments section, paid posters finished cursing the company and moved on to the agent, and some even posted news about Vanessa's disappearance while recording a survival reality show on a deserted island, putting QUEEN Entertainment in the middle of a public relations storm.

Phoebe's brow furrowed, "John, call everyone from the public relations department to the meeting room immediately."

At this time, the PR department staff had already left for the day. Gathering everyone would take at least thirty minutes, by which time it would be too late for any response.

Phoebe immediately called the person in charge at Twitter to bring down the heat on QUEEN Entertainment first. After hanging up, she instructed John to find a professional public opinion team to control the comments. By shifting the public's attention away from QUEEN Entertainment, the situation would be much easier to handle.

After a busy night, Phoebe finally stabilized the situation, but QUEEN Entertainment had still suffered some negative impact.

Phoebe massaged her throbbing temples, telling the PR team members to go home.

Upon returning to her office, she called Vanessa. The call was quickly connected and Vanessa's smug laughter eagerly came through.

"Miss Ziegler, have you seen the comments section?"

Phoebe almost wanted to scoff, "Vanessa, did you forget? You just signed a five-year contract with QUEEN Entertainment. Do you want to die by my hand?"
