Reborn Rich: Prices Dropped, My Savings Didn't novel Chapter 111

Chapter 111: Chapter 109: Too Terrible

It was Andrew Sutton!

He had just stepped out of the elevator when he saw the chaotic scene at the hotel entrance. When he looked closer, he realized the person trapped in the middle of the crowd was none other than Lily Sterling!

He reacted almost instinctively, rushing forward and managing to block a thermos flying right at her. The flask seemed to be full of water; it was so heavy that the impact sent a dull, throbbing pain through his forearm.

’Are these people insane?’

He had no time to worry about anything else. His first priority was to lower his head and check on Lily Sterling.

Driven by a subconscious urge to protect Lily Sterling, Andrew Sutton pressed himself against her, wrapping an arm around her shoulders in a semi-embrace to shield her with his body.

Andrew Sutton’s sudden appearance, coupled with his intimate gesture toward Lily Sterling, instantly pushed the rabid fans’ already volatile emotions to a new, frenzied peak.

"Andrew Sutton! Give us an explanation!"

"Don’t touch her! I won’t let you touch her! Let go!"

"Why did you have to film a real kiss? Why didn’t you fake it with camera angles?"

"Say it clearly! You don’t care about our feelings at all, do you?"

The scene was on the verge of spiraling out of control. Fortunately, Andrew Sutton’s team included several men and two bodyguards specifically tasked with handling fans. The group of them worked together, quickly forming a barrier to separate the people at the center from the crowd.

Drake felt his vision go dark; he just wanted to curl up and die. But remembering his duty, he forced himself to shout, "Everyone, please be rational! Don’t hurt anyone!"

But his lone voice was powerless, completely drowned out by the shrieks and accusations of the female fans.

At first, Andrew Sutton had been willing to explain things clearly to his fans, no matter how unreasonable they were being. But right now, his only thought was to get Lily Sterling to the car safely. He had completely lost any desire to communicate with these people.

Soon, the hotel security guards and the drivers of the talent vans all came out to help. With their combined effort, they finally managed to get Lily Sterling into one of the vans.

"Lily, are you okay? Are you hurt?"

Yuna, who was crying herself, didn’t even take a moment to wipe away her tears before rushing to check on Lily Sterling.

Lily Sterling was clearly shaken, but she still pretended to be fine and shook her head. "I’m okay, Yuna. Please don’t cry."

Yuna, indignant on Lily’s behalf, wiped at her tears and sobbed, "What is wrong with those people? What gives them the right to take it out on you! The second Andrew Sutton showed up, they didn’t dare lay a finger on him. They just bully us because they think we’re an easy target!"

Lily Sterling handed Yuna a tissue and gazed out the window. She saw Andrew Sutton being escorted into his own van by his team. The fans were relentlessly pounding on the windows, demanding an explanation. Some were even a blubbering mess of tears and snot.

Lily Sterling had heard about this kind of toxic fan culture, but only now, seeing it with her own eyes, did she realize just how insane it was.

She couldn’t understand it at all, and she certainly had no respect for this way of idolizing celebrities.

’It’s absolutely terrifying!’

After getting into the van, Andrew Sutton noticed that his sleeve cuff had been torn. His expression darkened as he sighed and said to the driver, "Let’s go. To the set."

Drake was in even worse shape. While shielding Andrew Sutton, his exposed arms had been covered in several bloody scratches from the fans’ nails.

But he didn’t have time to complain. He just looked at Andrew Sutton worriedly. "Andrew, are we not going to explain? We’re just leaving? If that video gets posted online, it’s going to cause a massive public outcry."
