She couldn’t help but laugh. A low chuckle echoed in the quiet room, which seemed somewhat eerie and strange.
Beneath the news, she noticed many comments from netizens, piquing her curiosity.
Charlotte Thompson gave the paperwork a cursory glance, noticing that not much was left to be done, so she set the files aside.
She was quite interested in reading these online comments.
"Oh my God, my goddess just got cheated on, is Justin Battleson blind? Or is that woman just absolutely shameless."
"Hey, watch what you say. I actually work in Mr. Battleson’s company. I’ve personally seen Mr. Battleson reject Evelyn Curtis, and I also know the woman in the photos. Our Charlotte is far superior to Evelyn, plus, Evelyn is so average-looking, she’s totally not worthy of Mr. Battleson." Latest content published on novel•fire.net
"Nonsense! Evelyn Curtis is so beautiful. And she announced her relationship with Justin Battleson at the peak of her career. It must be this woman in the picture who seduced him. How could Justin possibly cheat otherwise!"
"Oh my gosh, indeed you can’t trust love in the entertainment industry. Men are all the same, falling in love with every woman they meet."
"The person above makes a good point. Here’s a spicy scoop: the woman in the photo is a senior executive in the company, rumored to have been parachuted in. Chances are she hooked up with Justin Battleson long before. Poor Evelyn Curtis, it’s just so unfair!"
"What do you mean ’senior executive’? Isn’t it just Charlotte Thompson? This woman sure plays her cards well. She climbed up the ladder using her identity as Joy after returning from Ashton, and now she’s hooked up with Justin Battleson. What a shame for our Dream."
"Who said he cheated? When has Justin Battleson ever admitted that he’s Evelyn Curtis’s boyfriend? It has always been Evelyn Curtis who has been announcing their relationship all along. Before Evelyn showed up, Justin Battleson was always the top of the Golden Bachelor List."
"Let me add one thing, even after Evelyn showed up, Justin was still single. Evelyn Curtis is just wishful thinking."
Charlotte Thompson propped her chin on her hands as she read the comments online, where debates raged on.
Watching this, she seemed less like observing her own situation and more like watching a drama series, occasionally even laughing.
When Coco came in with some files, she was startled to see Charlotte in this state.
She thought Charlotte must have been affected mentally by the online gossip.
Regret washed over her for having mentioned the online news to Charlotte earlier. Otherwise, Charlotte wouldn’t have been hit .
As she thought about this, she knocked on the door.
Charlotte looked up subconsciously, the smile still on her face. Seeing that it was Coco, she asked leisurely, "What’s up?"
Coco spoke softly, "Sister Charlotte, Mr. Battleson is looking for you."
Justin Battleson? Looking for her?
Charlotte gave a simple "Oh" in response before shutting off her computer and giving a nod without saying anything else.
Glancing at the computer that was "shutting down", she could pretty much guess why Justin Battleson was calling her over.
Most likely, it was about this news.
It made sense, after all. As the company boss, generating such a scandal with an employee certainly called for a meeting.
She couldn’t help wondering, a woman like Evelyn Curtis who was madly infatuated with Justin Battleson, what would her reaction be after seeing this news?
She would surely be furious, right? That expression must be quite something.
As she thought about this, Charlotte couldn’t help but smirk. Her red lips curled up slightly, making her look even more charming and alluring.
Meanwhile, at a particular filming site...
Evelyn Curtis was resting in the dressing room after filming a few scenes.
Lucy poured her a glass of red wine, and she began scrolling through Weibo on her phone while drinking.
