“I didn’t want to sell myself to a person I didn’t love. Derek told me that everyone in this business was just like this. Having the talent or not, being pretty or not, if no one wanted to support you, you would never realize your dream. I still refused to do that. Derek drugged me and sent me to that man’s club. I woke up halfway and broke out of that place.”
Thea frowned. She was sitting before the camera, and she looked like she was about to cry. But she contained her tears, “Since that day, Derek and that man had been tailing me. They probably wanted to murder me. They even went back to my hometown, trying to find me. A college had accepted me by then, but I didn’t even dare to go to the college because I didn’t want Derek to find me. I escaped from one city to another, and I met my husband.”
Thea showed the cameras those pictures she took when she was Cody’s caretaker, “Meeting him in my darkest time saved my life. I didn’t dare to show my true face back then. And I couldn’t find other jobs except being Cody’s caretaker.”
“And then, that man who tried to get me in his bed left the country. They seemed to stop trying to find me after three years. Derek also became the CEO of HC Entertainment. And he was with my best friend back then. Yes, my best friend used to be Paris Dunn. I only got to know in the end that they both planned to send me to that man’s bed.”
“Derek tried to find me. He promised to make a star. And he only wanted me to be his artist. But I refused. It’s been six years. I didn’t expect him to do this to me. Those photos online are real. I know all of you want to know the answer. But the sex tape is fake. If I really gave in and slept with that man, it wouldn’t have taken me so many years to debut. Besides, those videos didn’t catch the face of the man. How could you be sure it was the same person? I didn’t do any of that. That girl in the video is a girl who looks like me. I want to let that girl know that if you’re forced to shoot the video, I wish you could call the police and ask for help. If you’re paid to do so, I also wish you could take care of yourself. Because that person who asked you to do this won’t let you walk away easily now that you’ve become a witness of this foul crime.”
“And… I’ve called the police myself. Mr. Dawson clearly violated my reputation here. I’ve seen a lot of comments online and want to thank you, guys, for your support. I won’t be afraid, and I’ll fight. I won’t let the bad people get what they want. My family also stands with me. Derek Dawson, you want to smear my name so you can ruin my career. You think if I go down the stage and you will get a larger amount of profit. But you need to know that your dream won’t come true. Because what you did is evil. And evil people will get punished. They will never win.”
After the last sentence, Thea took in a deep breath and stopped the shooting.
The internet was shocked after Thea released the video. No one expected things to take such a big turn.
The police force was also stirred. The investigation was going on extremely fast under the urge of public attention.
“I’d like those anti-fans to see this video. Thea is clean, and she didn’t do anything wrong! That Derek Dawson is such a demon!”
“Derek and his snake girlfriend Paris would do anything for their benefit. Poor Thea… The man she loved tried to sell her. And now, Thea finally realized her dream. That piece of st tried to ruin her. I feel bad for Thea.”
“This circle is messed up. I don’t care about showbiz gossip. But I think what Thea said was real. It’s not necessary for her to lie. Besides, she didn’t need to get so many people into this after what happened earlier.”
“Agree.”
But those anti-fans still refused to take a rest, “Thea Bradley’s probably doing this for family benefits. Her husband is so freaking powerful. They would definitely help her.”
“If the Bradley and the Weston family want to smear someone’s name, it would be the easiest thing for them to do because they are rich.”
Thea’s fans were so pissed off.
“Smear Paris Dunn’s name? Are you kidding me? Paris is not a saint. She’s done so many disgusting things. You guys know her the best as her fans.”
Some of Thea’s radical fans found out about Paris’s sex tape and pictures and posted them online again.
“Keep your eyes wide open and watch closely. Your idol is showing you what a real sex tape looks like. You have to at least show clear faces without editing.”
“It’s really Paris. See her face? It’s so clear. You can even hear her voice…. Shoot… Is that man Leon Smith? That famous director?”
“I just found a one-hour version.” In that one-hour video, not only could they see those men, but they also could hear what Leon said.
“How could you do this to me, Paris? Your little trap completely destroyed my career! You have to pay for what you did!”
“I didn’t… It’s really just a misunderstanding. She… She is…”
“You knew that girl was Miss Weston, and you still sent her to me! You wanted to use this as a bargaining chip to threaten me. You’re a fucking snake!”
“Shoot! Is Paris out of her mind? She designed a trap just to have some evidence against Leon?”
“No wonder Leon Smith quit movies. Paris was the one who designed everything.”
“Gosh… This business is mad.”
“I started to believe what Thea said after seeing this.”
“Agree…”
****
Derek looked like he was gonna have a meltdown after watching the video Thea shot. The price of his company stock was diving down drastically. And those journalists had surrounded his company and home.
“Look what you’ve done! Now we’ve become the target! We’re going under a huge loss right now. Those people are calling me incessantly. They’re driving me crazy! I might just be taken away by the police. Did you see what you did?!”
“Why are you so nervous, Derek? This is just a war of words. Just send more bots, and the problem will be solved,” Charles looked confident.
