The title read “Jane and Hollie,” drawing in many readers. Soon, the livestreams of these two big names were trending, with more and more people tuning in to watch.
“I never thought so many people would come to watch. Well, I won’t disappoint you all,” said one of the big names.
In the livestream room, both big names put up videos of Hollie and Jane on a large screen for viewers to compare side by side.
“Take a close look at Hollie’s video. The quality is still blurry; it looks like it was taken from surveillance footage at a milk tea shop. How could someone just easily access that kind of footage?”
The words from this big name were convincing, making everyone believe why Patrick didn’t have a face in Hollie’s video.
Like Hollie, many viewers began sending gifts to both big names’ streams. Suddenly their streams shot up on Twitter’s trending list.
“Now look at Ms. North’s video; it’s so clear that she obviously filmed it with her phone at home.”
Everyone knew about this fact already; not many responded below the stream. But what the big name said next convinced everyone.
“Jane and Mr. Pansy have already obtained their marriage certificate, which is well-known. There’s no need for them to retrieve surveillance photos of their dates like Miss Miller does. Jane and Mr. Pansy are legally married, so naturally they can take photos however they want without considering other people’s feelings.”
As soon as these few sentences were spoken, netizens followed the ideologies of these two popular influencers.
The comments below were all in agreement, and for a moment, public opinion shifted towards Hollie’s side.
These two influencers directly refuted Jane’s video, proving that her video was filmed earlier.
Hollie, sitting in front of the screen, looked at everything with a slight smile. Both of these influencers were hired by her, and she never expected such a huge reaction. The money she spent was well worth it.
On the other hand, many people also emerged to refute in favor of Jane.
The words of these two influencers may not necessarily be trustworthy, and even so, they couldn’t effectively prove why Patrick’s face was not in Hollie’s video.
For a while, many people jumped out to criticize Hollie using this incident.
“To conclude that person is Patrick based solely on a faceless video is asking too much.”
As more people voiced their disagreement, the two influencers realized the unfavorable situation and immediately came out to defend Hollie.
“Hollie’s video indeed went too far. There are many people in the world with similar figures and back views. How can we determine that the person in the video is Patrick?”
Hollie’s video couldn’t serve as strong evidence, and for a while, public opinion on the internet was swaying back and forth.
Hollie looked at those refuting statements, feeling dissatisfied, and sent a group of internet trolls to comment below, but the response was not significant.
On the other side, at the hospital.
Patrick had been staying by Mike’s side all this time. Due to the rumors online, he didn’t go to the company.
Because of this matter, Beatrice had been constantly nagging at Patrick’s ear.
She often looked at the online discussions and would quickly come over to nag at Patrick, causing him to feel irritated.
“You see, Jane is a freeloader, and she has connections with Tristian. Son, you have to see through that woman’s true nature and not let her blind you.”
Patrick grew more and more annoyed as he listened. In the end, he directly had Beatrice escorted out by someone.
Little did he know that Beatrice stubbornly refused to leave and stayed right in the hospital room.
“I’m not leaving.”
Patrick felt frustrated listening to her, and he pulled Beatrice away. “Grandpa is resting, and your loud shouting will disturb him.”
But Beatrice remained unfazed, lying on the ground and refusing to get up. “Don’t scare me with your grandpa. I am the mistress of the family, and it is only natural for me to stay here!”
Patrick’s face darkened. “Grandpa never wanted you to stay here.”
“So what?”
Beatrice became more and more agitated. In the end, not even a single person noticed when Mike’s finger twitched.
Just as the words fell, the sound of Mike coughing echoed in everyone’s ears.
Patrick hurriedly went to Mike’s bedside and helped him up.
“What did you just say?” Mike spoke, and Beatrice was already too scared to utter a word.
She had just casually said something, not expecting Mike to actually wake up.
“I’ve been hearing you shouting all this time. What’s the matter? Do you have any grievances?” Mike’s hoarse voice came through, and Patrick quickly fetched him a glass of water.
Beatrice was too frightened to speak. She had thought that Mike wouldn’t wake up so soon, but Patrick had indeed hit the mark.
“You were quite imposing just now. Why don’t you continue?” Mike looked at her coldly, while Patrick remained silent by his side.
Now that Mike was awake, someone could finally deal with Beatrice.
Soon, Mike let someone in, his expression grave. “I only let you come back because of Patrick’s marriage, but I didn’t expect you to be so willful. It seems that this place can no longer tolerate you.”
“No, I’m not. I’m just worried about Patrick,” Beatrice tried to explain but was silenced by a stern look from Mike.
“What’s the use of saying all this now? The situation has come to this point. You better leave quickly.”
Patrick nodded, agreeing with Mike’s words.
A few days ago, when Beatrice was causing a ruckus here, the nurses had already warned her that Mike needed a quiet environment. However, Beatrice didn’t listen and continued to create a disturbance in the room.
“Since you can’t bear it, then go out and stay quietly. I need a peaceful environment. If you keep causing trouble like this, I might not have many days left.”
Receiving Patrick’s gaze, Mike made up his mind and had someone escort Beatrice out.
Seeing Beatrice leave, Patrick’s heart sank.
Taking this opportunity, he instructed his assistant to book plane tickets, fearing that Beatrice would come back to cause trouble the next day. Instead of waiting for that to happen, he decided to seize this chance and send Beatrice back.
The next day, the assistant arrived in the hospital room with the plane tickets and sent Beatrice abroad. This was not the first time she had been sent out of the country.
