Chapter 296 - Throwing The Ball
After being able to sleep well after Sophia spoke honestly, Anne was again shocked by the news that was much more exciting than last night. Currently, Robert and Hannah Higgins were making a statement on the social media account of Sophia Higgins the Pianist which was the official social media account Sophia.
"Actually, it's the two of us who are at fault here as Sophia's father and mother. We were the ones who didn't pay attention to little Sophia at that time, so she could say something wrong like that. We didn't think that the song she was playing would be booming, that's why we forgot. We forgot to find out who the real songwriter was. Sophia's busy schedule at that time made us, her father and mother, forget the most important thing. That's why I, Robert Higgins, the biological father of Sophia Higgins, want to apologize to everyone who feels that they have been let down by Sophia, I am the one at fault. My daughter is really clean, even if at that time she claimed the song was hers, I'm very sorry. At that time, Sophia was just a child, who really liked the piano, she was not aware of her mistakes that hurt others. Once again, I'm the one who is guilty in this case, and not my child, and hereby I also want to apologize profusely to Miss Ariella, Sophia and I have decided to give you the royalties on Symphony of Life as our most sincere request. I, Robert Higgins, never lie, I want to restore your rights to that song. So if you see this apology, please contact me immediately, I will leave everything to you, Miss Ariella," said Robert Higgins with teary eyes.
Hannah Higgins, who had been silent for a while, then stroked her husband's head, then looked at the camera and started talking. .
"I, as a mother, have also been very guilty. Money and popularity that Sophia gained then make us dazzled and forget the mistakes made by Sophia. We are aware that there are people who have been hurt because of all this. That's why I want to apologize profusely. I'm a mother who wants her child to succeed, I'm a woman who wants to see her family happy and accidentally hurt a woman out there for what I did, sob..." Hannah stopped her words and wiped the tears that flowed down her face. She then looked back at the camera. "Therefore, I apologize profusely to everyone who has worked with our daughter, Sophia Higgins, especially the esteemed Miss Ariella. Please accept our apologies for making you suffer. Blame me as a mother who is incompetent to take care of this family. Don't blame our daughter, Sophia. She was just a little girl who had big dreams at that time. Forgive our Sophia, forgive our innocent little girl. We, as parents of Sophia, are willing to bear all this, blame us, but not our daughter. Once again, I, Hannah Higgins, and my husband Robert Higgins, would like to apologize profusely, pray for my husband who has just fallen in an accident to get well soon. See you next time and thank you very much."
Anne's eyes widened when she saw the TV screen that Erick and Alice were watching in the living room, she really didn't expect that Robert and Hannah Higgins were throwing hot balls back at her after what Jack did to Sophia last night. Even the glass she brought from the second floor almost fell if she didn't realize it immediately. When going back up to the second floor, Anne canceled her intention when she saw Erick was busy with his laptop connected to the TV. TV articles had appeared in response to Robert and Hannah Higgins' statements. Although many criticized the husband and wife, but they praised Sophia. There were even some people who publicly apologized to her and the title of 'innocent princess' appeared for her. They said that what Sophia did was not completely wrong, they actually praised Sophia's step in opening her secret to everyone when she was at the peak of her fame, which no one else would ever do.
"Sophia is an angel, she is innocent in this."
"Oh Sophia Higgins, how nice of you. Sorry for blaspheming you last night."
"My goddess Sophia Higgins, I love you my angel."
"You're amazing, Sophia, don't worry, you're innocent. After all, everyone has made mistakes too, so you don't have to be down for too long. We're with you, Sophia."
"To hell with that Symphony of Life song, all we remember is you, Sophia. Sophia Higgins is still our idol."
"Don't give up, Sophia, go back to playing the piano. We are waiting for your beautiful performance again, Sophia."
"No wonder Sophia is very kind, it turns out that both of her parents are this good. Rarely are parents willing to sacrifice for their children. We salute you both, Mr. and Mrs. Higgins."
Various tweets from netizens appeared on the TV screen one after another. They immediately responded to the words of Robert and Hannah Higgins. In an instant, the name Sophia Higgins became a trending topic on various social media platforms. The people who had blasphemed Sophia last night, had now turned around. They apologized to Sophia. There was even a group of people who were fans of Sophia, who immediately raised funds. They intend to compensate Ariella, the composer of the Symphony of Life song, which was claimed to belong to Sophia. Under Sophia's name, they want to pay the compensation to Ariella. Sophia, who was almost destroyed, now shone again, even Ariella's name as the song's creator was now being criticized and blasphemed. They said that Ariella was jealous of Sophia and because of that she appeared when Sophia was already famous. Ariella's name coincided with the viral name of Shopia Higgins. However, it was blasphemy and insults that accompanied the rise of Ariella's name on all social media platforms.
Crash!
"Fuck!!! Why does it turn out like this!!!"
Jack, who had just returned from his morning jog with several bodyguards, looked very surprised when he saw the TV screen. He was very angry. Even though he only read netizens' writings that go on and on on the TV screen, Jack already knew that there were big things that have been done by Sophia and her parents, so that the public took their side again and instead blames Ariella, the owner of the official Symphony of Life song, which she admitted to owning many years ago.
Seeing Jack coming, Anne immediately went back up to her room. She didn't want Jack to know that she already knew everything and sure enough, right after Anne was nowhere to be seen on the stairs, Jack immediately turned his head towards the stairs.
"Take care of everything, don't let Anne find out. Use all our relationships to take this news down from all social media platforms, force them to delete the history of all this and don't let anyone repost it. If they refuse, threaten them by using our power and find out who's behind all this. I'm pretty sure the Higgins family didn't make this move on their own," said Jack coldly full of anger.
"Yes, sir, I understand."
