Chapter 1316 The Real Mastermind Was Found...
Upon learning of Mandy being targeted by Internet users, Janet, who had recently faced a similar ordeal, understood the discomfort. She couldn't help but worry about Mandy's predicament.
After some hesitation, Janet finally decided to reach out to her.
As soon as the call was answered, the distressed and furious voice of Mandy filled the air. "Janet! I already told everyone it wasn't me. Why are you calling to accuse me? If there were surveillance cameras in the restroom, I'd have already released the video and audio of my conversation with Vivi that day to clear my name!"
Toward the end, Mandy's voice broke with emotion. "Even if I want to best you, I want to do it squarely and fairly! I would never stoop to such underhanded tactics. I, Mandy, am not that sort of person!"
Janet remained silent, patiently allowing Mandy to vent her frustrations.
She understood that Mandy was under unjust online attacks and that her emotional state was on the edge. If she didn't vent, she might completely break down.
After letting out her frustrations, Mandy finally noticed that Janet had been silent throughout the call.
Sniffing back tears, she asked in a forced tough tone, "Why aren't you saying anything? Aren't you going to ridicule and mock me?"
Seeing that Mandy had regained some composure, Janet responded sincerely, "I called to tell you that I believe you!"
Mandy was taken aback by her words, her voice wavering with emotion, and she could barely ask, "What... What did you say? Do you really believe me?" Clearly, Janet's trust meant a lot to Mandy, and all the injustices she had endured seemed to dissipate at that moment.
Janet chuckled and joked, "Yes, I believe you. If you wanted to hurt me, you'd just march into the studio and create a commotion. You wouldn't resort to sly tactics to cause me harm."
For the first time, someone believed her, and surprisingly, Mandy didn't react angrily to Janet's playful jest. Instead, she found herself nodding in agreement on the other end of the phone, saying, "Exactly! I'm not the kind of person who would hide behind Internet trolls and resort to foul play."
However, when Mandy thought back to her previous tantrum at Janet's studio, she felt a tinge of embarrassment. "Since you trust me, I... I won't bother you at your studio anymore," she said with a hint of embarrassment in her voice.
Janet smiled and shook her head. "So, should I be thanking you now?" she quipped.
Mandy snorted and responded with a touch of arrogance, "Whatever."
Recalling Mandy's earlier reference to Vivi, Janet asked earnestly, "Could you share the details of your interaction with Vivi during your collaboration? It could very well be her handiwork." Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
Hearing this, Mandy promptly gave a detailed account of her encounter with Vivi in the restroom at the art exhibition and how their collaboration started. She didn't leave out any detail.
Janet's brow knitted as she took in Mandy's story.
After ending the call, Janet directed her assistant to probe into the link between Vivi and the online slanderers.
To her astonishment, the investigation unveiled a
situation far murkier than she had initially suspected.
It appeared that Vivi had not only hired Internet trolls to defame Janet and falsely incriminate Mandy, but had also employed numerous similar underhanded tactics to frame others. She had used every possible means to twist the narrative online, treating it as a territory without rules.
Janet would not let such misconduct slide and promptly published the evidence she had unearthed online, publicly revealing Vivi's transgressions.
The evidence that Janet disclosed about Vivi was damning, leading to Vivi being shunned and ruthlessly targeted by Internet users. Her social media accounts, once filled with praises, were now flooded with an onslaught of derogatory comments and insults.
Thanks to the collective efforts of the online community, Vivi's real identity was swiftly unmasked.
