Paris’s tweet seemed to be asking her fans to stop bullying Thea, but she knew it would only make things escalate into chaos.
Paris’s fans went furious after seeing her tweet.
“Paris, we only want you to stay in the hospital and get better. You have nothing to do with this war. We will straighten that bitch up for you. So she and her stupid fans would leave you alone and let you be.”
“I feel so bad for our princess. She’s such a kind and sweet girl. She didn’t forget to care for other people’s feelings when sick. That show is shit! It doesn’t deserve Paris! Those people are treating our princess like a slave! The show and Thea Todd must apologize!”
“Thea Todd must be boycotted! She needs to quit the show immediately!”
“Thea’s dogs were barking earlier. Their master is too scared to face the public!”
“Hey! Thea is still recording the show, okay? She’s focusing on the next round of competition, and she’s busy winning. She doesn’t have time for this stupid drama!”
“Can Todd’s fans fuck off already? Don’t use your paws to leave any comments under Princess Paris’s tweet! I don’t want you foul creatures to dirty her eyes!”
Countless bad comments flooded in to drown Thea and her fans.
Knowing the online drama, Thea gradually gets angry. She clenched her teeth as she walked out of the dorm. Those bastards could say whatever they wanted to her. She had thick skin, and she didn’t give a shit!
But her fans… Her sweet fans… She wouldn’t allow those trash supporters to hurt her best friends.
Beth watched in awe as Thea stormed out of the dorm and slammed the door. And then, Beth thought for a second and went to her bed to grab her laptop.
When Thea stomped upstairs, she could see everyone else was giving her a sharp glance. Other girls seemed to feel bad for her, but none of them stood out to support her on the internet.
Paris’s team was scary. They used their PR and public relations to turn the table. No one dared to mess with them.
Thea went straight to the director’s office, asking for her phone back with a loud and furious voice.
However, the director called the security guards to take her back, saying having her phone back was against the competition’s rules and that it was unfair to other competitors.
“Get your hands away from me!” Thea struggled and pulled away.
“Then, can I have the video clip of our stage that day?” Thea tried to ask calmly, knowing being irrational wouldn’t do her any good.
The director sighed. He also looked like he felt bad for Thea, but he still shook his head, “I’m sorry, Thea. But our show has signed a contract with the celebrities we invited before. All the footage on-site needs to be published under mutual discussion with the stars. We can’t leak the videos. Or Paris’s lawyers will sue our show. Paris’s agent has taken away the video. Her team even contacted all the audiences presented that night. I doubt any of them would have the video.”
Thea’s eyes went red, her fist balling up in a rage, “Then…. is there no way to explain the truth to the public? Paris’s fans are cyber-bullying, my fans! They’ve never done anything wrong! They don’t deserve to be treated like that! It was not my fault or their fault either.”
The director poured her some wine to calm her down, “I feel bad for you, girl. I truly do… But there’s really nothing we can do. You don’t even have an agent or a team. How are you gonna fight against Paris? She’s debuted for years. The connections and power she has in this circle are beyond your imagination.”
It was bullying!
Paris saw something unique in Thea, and she felt threatened. She would use everything she got to destroy Thea using this chance. After all, she didn’t want to be replaced by anyone.
“Thea, listen…” the director was pretty genuine as he looked into Thea’s eyes, “This business is just like this. Everyone will run into something like this sooner or later. You should feel lucky because you’re still young. And you still have the chance to learn. One day, you will rise again. This is not the end. Do you understand?”
Thea looked up, looking at the director’s eyes coldly.
The director had gone through too much in this circle. He was sure that there was nothing Thea could do to turn the table.
He probably couldn’t help her, but Thea knew he genuinely felt bad for her.
Thea shook her head and walked out of the office. Derek used to threaten her that he would destroy her if she didn’t join his company.
He was a man of his word, after all.
Thea went downstairs slowly. And then, she suddenly fell to her feet and sat down on the cold tiles of the stairs. She pressed the balls of her hands into her eyes as she curled up on the stairs, feeling desperate.
What could she do to end this mess? All the people online were proposing to boycott her. All those celebrities were retweeting Rachel’s post to mock her. What should she do?”
Thea felt her head was a mess.
“Thea!” Someone suddenly called her name.
Thea looked up, and it was Tiffany and Jessica.
“Thea, why are you here? Are you okay?” Jessica hurried over, “You need to take a look right now. Someone just posted a video clip of that day. It’s trending now. Things have changed.”
Thea shot up instantly, “Really?”
She stood up too quickly, and she felt a bit dizzy, but that didn’t keep her from taking the phone from Jessica and clicking open the video.
In that video, Paris’s fart was loud and clear after their performance, and when Paris hurried out of the hall, covering her stomach, a trail of shit followed behind her hasty heels.
The hall was a mess, and the director just halted the shooting.
Paris’s embarrassed face showed big and clear on the screen.
The video only stayed on the internet for about a few minutes before being taken down.
However, Thea’s fans had already downloaded it and reposted it everywhere.
Since the video would be deleted on YouTube, they just posted it on Tik Tok and Reddit, spreading and celebrating Paris’s deepest nightmare.
“Princess Poo, your shit just dropped off. It’s time to apologize to Thea.”
“It’s easy for you to make things up and smear a rookie’s name, huh? You and your fans are snakes. How is your diarrhea now, by the way?”
“Karma is a bitch, but it’s not as bitchy as Poo Doon.”
“Hey! Doon! Stop hiding behind your phone. You need to make an announcement to explain your mental fans’ behavior!”
“This just made my day 20 times better! I felt so pissed off earlier!”
However, Paris’s fans didn’t stop snarling, “Fuck off! Princess Paris was just sick. Do you guys have any sympathy or human decency at all?”
“Just leave Paris alone!”
