After Jane returned, Star Entertainment resumed its normal routine, and her heart relaxed a bit. However, there was still another matter that needed to be addressed.
Jane’s gaze focused on the information about Haven on the table. She had searched online for the past few days but still couldn’t find any information about Haven’s family. If someone wanted to apply for a job at the company, their background and information must be clear. Why would Marco hire someone like this?
Jane frowned and then asked someone to call Haven into her office.
Soon after, there was a knock on Jane’s office door, and she responded lightly.
“Jane, you wanted to see me.”
Haven displayed a reserved and serene side that Jane couldn’t quite figure out.
Recalling Finley’s description of Haven that day, it didn’t sound like someone introverted.
But ultimately, those were just a few words from someone else, and Jane couldn’t really care too much about it.
“Please have a seat.”
Jane pointed to the chair in front of her and took out her phone, scrolling through Twitter to read the comments about Haven.
“These past few days, there have been countless negative comments about you online. Do you have any explanations for that?”
Jane asked directly, putting aside what Finley had said. This time, she was truly discussing work with Haven.
“It’s just that I suddenly became popular, and people envy me.”
Haven explained, thereby directly denying the things that were said about her online.
“Is that so?”
Jane raised an eyebrow. Haven’s statement didn’t sound like something an introverted and shy person would say.
“Yeah.” Haven sensed something was off, puffed out her cheeks, and put on what she thought was a cute expression. “Jane, you have to believe me. I’m also a member of the company.”
That sentence reminded Jane that the success or failure of an artist was closely tied to the company.
Jane was well aware of this principle. If it weren’t for this matter, she wouldn’t have called Haven for a conversation.
“The evidence from those people online is conclusive. All the clues from those videos and photos point to you.”
Jane said calmly. But as she mentioned this, Haven’s emotions suddenly became agitated.
“The technology for photoshopping online is so advanced now. It’s easy for them to just photoshop my pictures and spread rumors, isn’t it?”
While speaking, Haven opened a video for Jane to compare: “Look, the transitions in this footage are so obvious, it’s clearly been edited.”
Jane examined it carefully and nodded. “Yes, indeed.”
“I never did those things. They’re all rumors made up by them.”
As she said this, Haven’s eyes turned red, directly denying the evaluations of her online.
She spoke while pretending to wipe away the tears that seemed to be there and not there, leaving Jane feeling helpless.
“You didn’t do any of it?”
Jane asked again, and this time, Haven nodded firmly.
“It’s not that the company hasn’t clarified things for you these past two days. It’s just that I’ve just returned, and some things need to be handled slowly. Can you understand?”
Jane explained, seeing Haven’s aggrieved expression.
“I understand.”
Haven quickly nodded, her eyes flickering, giving off an innocent vibe.
“And also, about that man…”
“I don’t even know him!”
Haven interrupted before Jane could finish speaking.
Jane felt helpless. Since Haven’s attitude was so resolute, she didn’t continue pressing the matter.
Jane had to clarify everything about the artist’s situation. Otherwise, it would be a severe blow to the company’s reputation and interests.
“Alright, I understand.”
Jane nodded and then waved her hand gently, dismissing Haven.
After Haven left, Jane went online to search for information about the incident.
The timestamp in the video indicated it was from December last year, and the director in it was Director Reid Bombardo.
After the incident came to light, Director Reid immediately clarified that the man in the video was not him. However, it was clear that no one wanted to believe his words.
Jane specifically searched online for Director Reid’s activities during those days. It turned out that he was shooting a variety show in the wilderness during that time. He spent several days and nights sleeping in tents outside, clearly unrelated to the hotel shown in the video.
It seemed that this piece of negative information was deliberately leaked by someone with ill intentions.
Netizens only believed what they saw in front of them and didn’t bother to investigate the events of those days.
Moreover, Haven had just debuted and didn’t have a fan base yet. If something happened, there weren’t many fans willing to defend her.
After resolving this matter, Jane began investigating the background of the man involved.
However, this time, Haven did lie. The man was her college classmate.
But during that period, Haven was working outside due to her impoverished family background. There was no so-called romantic relationship, let alone abandoning a boyfriend.
Reading this, Jane furrowed her brow.
Obviously, this man was just trying to ride on Haven’s popularity, and the photos were taken during their college gatherings, not as evidence of a romantic relationship.
After the investigation, it turned out that all the negative information about Haven was false.
Jane felt relieved. As long as she shared this evidence online, the situation would quickly calm down.
Jane let out a sigh of relief. She remembered the cryptic words Finley had said in the alley that day, which had made her pensive.
If Haven really had nothing to do with any of this, then why was there no mention of her having a sister in her records?
Moreover, Finley’s words that day were clearly implying something. Could it be that the two of them had a bad relationship, and Finley didn’t want to get involved…
Furrowing her brow, Jane racked her brain for a long time but still couldn’t figure out the reasons behind it all. This only made her more curious about the hidden secrets between the two.
There must be some unknown secrets about Haven, which posed a significant risk to the company.
As the end of the workday approached, Jane left the company and entered the small alley without much thought.
However, this time was different from the previous one. The sunny and adorable figure of the girl was no longer there. Instead, a group of cats and dogs lazed around, basking in the sun.
When they saw Jane approaching, they gathered around her, rubbing against her pant legs.
Jane’s eyes softened, and she squatted down to feed them.
In her mind, the faces of Haven and Finley kept appearing, and her intuition told her that their situation was not simple…
