Silvia glanced meaningfully at Balk, realizing why there were so many people here—because of Balk's influence.
"I thought you had found out something, but it seems you haven't found anything at all. They're all here because of you."
News had been circulating early that Balk would accompany Silvia to this charity event and auction. Upon hearing this, everyone rushed here, eager to meet Balk and know about his recent activities. Many were Balk's fans, so after the recent controversy, they all wanted to meet him.
After listening to Silvia, Balk found it hard to believe.
"Seriously? Are you saying all these people are my fans? That's impossible. Our circle isn't that big, and everyone knows each other. Are you joking with me?"
"Why would I joke with you?"
Silvia had been working hard lately and had introduced many people. Many would instinctively ask about Balk's situation. At first, Silvia thought they were asking for a purpose, but later she realized they were genuinely concerned about Balk. They were his loyal fans.
So Balk didn't realize his own influence.
"I didn't expect to have so many fans. Should I wear a mask today so they won't recognize me? After all, we're here for charity."
"Bro, are you really that naive? Today's purpose isn't just about charity. You're here to clarify things with the public. You have no trouble now, and you should focus on your work. You've been online all this time and bored, right? I'm helping you out."
Silvia was speechless. She thought Balk understood her intentions, but apparently he didn't even now.
"I thought you just brought me because you couldn't find anyone else to come with you. I didn't expect all this. When did you plan all these things with your brother? Why didn't you tell me earlier? If I had known, I would have prepared seriously."
"Forget it. Anyone can prepare for today's event seriously, but if it's you, I don't believe it. Just behave and don't cause any trouble for me. You've been in this circle for so long, and you think I don't know what kind of person you are? You've caused enough trouble for your agent."
