WeLoveAnnie: Yeah, Joanna, can you see our messages? Please come out and make a clarification. I’m so anxious about this."
Some popcorn eaters saw those comments and replied to the fans: "Your Annie isn’t unaware of your messages, she’s just playing dead. I was skeptical about this whole thing, but now it seems like there’s an 80% chance it’s true."
Fans immediately responded to them: "Where’s your solid evidence? You have no proof, and you just slander our Annie!"
Passerby mocked: "You fans love being blindfolded, and there’s nothing I can do about it. What about the solid evidence? Isn’t it right in front of you, and you just don’t have the eyes to see it?"
Fans replied: "You mean those Photoshopped pictures? That’s not solid evidence."
Passerby laughed: "Experts have already analyzed that they’re not Photoshopped, and people like you are still talking about it. You fools, keep deceiving yourself, but don’t cry when the truth slaps you in the face."
The Blog was abuzz with discussions.
The topic #AnnieLawrenceHomeWrecker soon made it to the hot search, with several hundred million views.
Usually, at this time, the brokerage company would spend money to remove it from the hot search.
But Galaxy Agency remained quiet as a church, with no response at all.
After Joanna finished her class, several girls ran up to her, their faces full of gossip, asking her: "Joanna Lawrence, is Annie really your sister?"
Annie was also a student at Closia Film School.
Since signing with a brokerage company and starring in a popular web series in her freshman year, she’s now an A-list popular rising star, making her quite famous in school.
However, few people knew that she and Joanna were sisters.
Aside from Aria Rowlett, Joanna never mentioned it to anyone else.
Annie also never mentioned Joanna in front of others.
Back when Annie still lived in school, they would pass each other without exchanging a greeting.
No one would think that they, who lived like strangers, were actually half-sisters.
Joanna looked at the unfamiliar faces and frowned.
She felt a bit repelled and displeased by this kind of behavior, which had now even reached her in person.
However, she didn’t want to show her displeasure outright.
After a few seconds of silence, she said softly: "Yes."
The girls excitedly exclaimed, then asked, "Is the rumor on the internet true? Did she really... steal your boyfriend?"
Didn’t these people know how to read faces?
Did she look like she was willing to answer their questions?
Just because she didn’t refuse outright, they believed that she was willing to answer?
She reached out and rubbed her temples: "I’m sorry, but can you move aside? I’d like to go to the restroom."
However, these girls obviously didn’t know how to read people’s expressions.
The girls stood in front of Joanna, blocking her way: "We’re all classmates here. Just tell us. Annie hasn’t responded to the rumors yet. Is it because it’s true, and she’s too afraid to come out and say something?"
"Yeah, if it’s true, then you’re the victim here. You tell us, and we’ll help you bash her online."
"Hey, what’s wrong with you guys?"
Just when Joanna didn’t know how to deal with the girls, Aria Rowlett walked over and stood in front of her protectively: "Can’t you see that Joanna doesn’t want to answer your questions? You guys have no self-awareness."
