Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 1993

Heaven must have a pair of watchful eyes!

Carmella's heart was doing somersaults with excitement. She clutched at her chest, trying to calm the wild rhythm, and slowly turned to head back into her room.

The next day, a proclamation from the Macclain family hit the headlines.

In the statement, Bennett and Simone came clean about their past, confirming that they had indeed supported KING; not only had they moved her from C City to J City, but also had taken her on as their goddaughter. However, they disclosed that their relationship had not been close, and at present, there was no communication between them.

A few short sentences amounted to an admission of what had been said in the post: Estelle was a turncoat, an ingrate, the proverbial wolf in sheep's clothing!

With hundreds of thousands of shares, the Macclain family’s announcement sparked a wildfire of boycotts against KING on the internet.

KING had been the target of online vitriol more than once, but in the past, her fans had come to her defense and endeavored to manage the narrative. This time, however, KING’s fans were completely drowned out by the fury of the netizens.

Photos of KING attending the Sampson family wedding and serving as a bridesmaid were plastered all over the web.

The internet was awash with sarcastic jibes:

[I always wondered why KING set her sights so high; it seemed even the Macclains weren’t good enough for her. Turns out she was clinging to the Sampson family tree!]

[So that’s how she became an international designer at such a young age, by despising the poor and currying favour with the rich, and cozying up to the big shots]

[Designer? She’s a disgrace to the profession!]

[Blacklist her! Kick her out of the country! Since she loves fawning over foreign designers so much, then let her be gone!”]

Being said to lack in national pride and professional ethics, and to have betrayed her own benefactors, KING had fallen from grace into the dust.
