Chapter 298 - 298: Complicated Human Nature
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Frank didn’t clarify. Instead, he hung up.
“What a strange person,” Audrey lampooned. Just as she was about to put down her phone, it suddenly rang again!
God! She was really busy tonight.
Audrey looked at her phone helplessly, only to realize that it was a call from Gail.
“Director, good evening. What’s the matter?” Audrey asked.
“Audrey!” Gail’s tone was clearly anxious. “Something happened!”
Before Audrey could ask, Gail continued, “Someone uploaded Liz’s video of her being chased by a goat. This has done a lot of damage to Liz!”
Liz was a rising star in the entertainment industry. Even though her acting skills had always been criticized, this did not prevent her from being flattered by many fans.
“Now, her studio has come to me,” Gail said. “They firmly believe that I posted that video to obtain traffic. Ah! God, I’m going crazy.”
“Director, I’m very helpless about this.” Audrey sounded very innocent. “You know that all of us were present at the time. You know better than me if I took a video.”
“No, no, no, honey,” Gail quickly denied. “I didn’t call you to doubt you. I know you’re not that kind of person.”
Audrey’s tone was immediately a little strange. “Director, why did you call me?
Gail sighed and said, “To be honest, I’m worried about our variety show now.
You know that the netizens know that the variety show was stopped because
Liz’s leg was injured. Liz’s fans called us angrily and asked us to compensate Liz.”
“They even asked us to publicly apologize to Liz!” Gail could not help but feel a little down.
“Of course, compensation is necessary,” Audrey said without hesitation. “Liz was indeed injured during the variety show. Logically speaking, the production team should be responsible.”
“It’s not a question of responsibility now,” Gail said helplessly. “You don’t know yet, do you? Liz called me just now, claiming that the person who sent the video must be someone from the production team.”
Audrey understood.
Actually, Liz was right.
But what did it matter?
Audrey only found it funny. Liz wasn’t completely innocent. If she hadn’t sent someone to install cameras in Elena’s room in advance and even threatened her with Elena’s private photos, Elena wouldn’t have been so ruthless.
Objectively speaking, Elena had already given Liz a chance, but Liz clearly wanted to force her to a dead end. Elena did this to protect herself. Elena had done nothing wrong.
It was Liz who was wrong.
In a practical sense, everything that Liz had experienced today was her own fault.
Audrey was not a completely kind person. To be honest, deep down, she actually had some grudges against Elena.
Before Liz appeared, Elena had always targeted Audrey. Even though she was already developing in a good direction, Audrey felt especially uncomfortable every time she thought of the past.
There was no way she could open her heart to Elena, nor could she completely let bygones be bygones.
Perhaps this was complicated human nature.
Audrey sighed inwardly.
“Then, Director, what can I do for you?” Audrey pretended to be polite.
“I need your help,” Gail said bluntly. “Well, Liz just called me and said she wanted you to come forward and identify the person who deliberately harmed her. ”
Audrey was shocked. “Director, you must be joking, right? Why do I need to stand up and identify the instigator of the video?”
Gail said seriously, “Audrey, I hope you can understand my difficulties. After all, I spent a lot of effort to film this variety show. You might not know, but I invested a huge sum of money in it.”
Audrey wasn’t a philanthropist. She didn’t want to fall into the other party’s trap when Gail was playing the emotional card with her.. Upon hearing this, Audrey pretended to be in a difficult position and said, “Director, it’s not good for me to casually identify someone without evidence, right?”
