In truth, it didn’t matter if she deleted it; the damage was already done.
Some netizens actually visited the Class 7 student’s Weibo and found that she really did have a depression diagnosis on her page. Moreover, the vast majority of her posts were protests.
The netizens immediately exploded. They swarmed back to Laura Rhodes’s Weibo to "pay her a visit."
[So it was true. What a scumbag!]
[I demand she be fired! A teacher like that doesn’t deserve to teach!]
[Finally, someone dared to speak up. Since everyone is exposing her, I’ll step forward too. I was a student of hers a few years back, and I’m working now. Laura Rhodes used to be my homeroom teacher. My grades were above average, but my parents got sick during my senior year of high school. For Teacher’s Day, Laura Rhodes demanded every student give five hundred yuan for a gift for the teachers. My family was struggling financially, so I explained my situation. After that, I was constantly targeted by her!]
[My grades were good back then, and I got along with my classmates, so the mental pressure wasn’t that bad. But I was truly miserable. I didn’t dare say anything before because she had connections, and I was scared. Now that she’s being publicly shamed, you can call it kicking her while she’s down or say it’s unethical, I don’t care. I’m going to expose this kind of teacher no matter what!]
Netizens were left dumbfounded.
Because in less than an hour, numerous students had come forward to talk about the abuse they suffered at the hands of Laura Rhodes.
But what shocked everyone even more was that a popular celebrity actually came out and made a statement.
The celebrity’s name was Hector York. In the past two years, he had starred in many web dramas, a lot of which were huge hits, and he had a massive following.
They never knew that the idol they cherished so much had suffered such treatment in high school!
If only he hadn’t met a teacher like her.
Without a teacher like that, would their idol have been able to go to college like a normal student and have a passionate romance?
No one suspected Hector York of just selling a sob story.
After all, if he wanted to play the victim, he would have shared his story back when he first became famous. Doing so would have probably gained him a whole new wave of fans.
