From Trash to Treasure: The Sinclair Family's Beloved Genius novel Chapter 408

Chapter 408: Chapter 397: Rational Star-Chasing

After all, Chloe had repeatedly warned everyone in the group chat not to post her video online.

But some people just don’t listen.

It would have been one thing if they’d just ignored her, but to take her red packet only to add fuel to the fire and spread malicious rumors...

How could something like that not be infuriating?

It was absolutely infuriating!

The more Summer Beckett thought about it, the angrier he got.

’What if the video goes viral?’

’Are they trying to get Chloe to trend online again?’

While there are plenty of discerning people in the world, there are just as many who are quick to judge.

So, Summer Beckett promised in the group chat that he would definitely hold Mina Thorne accountable.

That very night, Mina Thorne was taken to the police station.

This terrified her parents.

However, upon making inquiries, they discovered that their daughter had actually submitted a video to a prank influencer, posting it without the subject’s consent and causing a malicious fallout.

When Mr. and Mrs. Thorne heard this, their faces turned livid.

But the video was taken down quickly, and the police only gave her a verbal warning before releasing her into her parents’ custody for further discipline.

After she returned to school, someone—no one knew who—told Mina Thorne’s classmates what had happened.

Many of her classmates disapproved of this behavior and began to distance themselves from her.

Mina Thorne was almost completely isolated.

Yet, no one felt sorry for her.

After all, she had brought this upon herself.

By the time Summer Beckett told Chloe what had happened, she was already back in her lab in Emberfall.

She had originally wanted to stay in Kennet for a while longer, but her experiment was far more urgent than she’d imagined.

Besides, she needed state-of-the-art equipment to complete the experiment.

Therefore, she had bought a plane ticket and returned to Emberfall the day after the incident.

She left in such a hurry that she didn’t bring anything besides her identification.

She headed straight for the lab right after landing.

"Snatching three red packets was bad enough, but then she had to go and post the video online!"

"And posting it online was bad enough, but she sent it in for a prank video!"

The more Eight thought about it, the angrier it got, its large blue eye-lights flashing nonstop.

"Alright, that’s enough. In any case, it’s not like Mina Thorne got off scot-free."

"However, this incident with Mina Thorne taught us a valuable lesson."

Eight paused, then instinctively asked, "What lesson is that?"

Chloe raised an eyebrow and said with a smile, "To be a rational fan."

Eight paused for a moment, then chuckled and added, "You mean, be a rational fan of Nina Sinclair, right?"

After saying that, Eight added with a sigh, "But seriously, anyone who actually likes Nina Sinclair must have terrible taste."

’After all, you’d have to be blind to fall for a woman like her.’

Chloe couldn’t help but laugh.

"You’re getting more and more human-like."

Eight put its hands on its hips. "But of course! I mean, just look who my master is."
