Chapter 290 Stirring the Internet
Because of the history fans, Scarlett’s haters, and Lavender’s fans causing trouble under the film studio’s posts, the topic quickly went viral.
[Scarlett is pre–selected as Princess Mona?]
[Why did Calvert make such a careless casting decision? Why did he choose Scarlett?]
[Yvonne and Scarlett are close friends.]
Scarlett stayed calm. Wherever she appeared, scandal usually followed. She was already used to it.
Her popularity had been rising lately. Even though her followers kept growing, the comment sections under those trending posts were still a mess.
However, among the comments were many older fans she had gained from her livestreams, where she helped people with health advice. These elderly fans quickly stepped in to defend her.
[I’m a retired history professor. The real Princess Mona in history was fair, young and delicate. Scarlett actually looks quite similar. I see no problem with her playing the role.]
[Young people today get angry too fast. You start insulting others before knowing the full story. Maybe Scarlett already auditioned. How do you know the role was reserved for her?]
[Kids these days. Why speak so harshly?]
Scarlett found it amusing. She admired these eldery folks who knew how to use the internet but also liked her and defended her online.
Feeling a little playful, Scarlett tagged the film crew and replied publicly.
“@The Ancestor Film Crew @Calvert Thank you for trusting me. As for why Mr. Patton chose me to play Princess Mona–of course it’s because of my good acting.”
The moment the post went up, many haters, Lavender’s fans, and random internet users saw it.
Scarlett openly said she got the role because of her acting. She even ended the post with a playful tone. It was obvious the online criticism hadn’t affected her mood at all.
She simply didn’t care what people were saying about her.
Some people suddenly felt tired. They didn’t even want to keep insulting her.
How could someone be this thick–skinned?
Arguing with her wasn’t even fun.
Still, a few comments appeared. [Wow. Shameless,]
[Why are you bullying Lavender?]

Even though they were already tired of arguing, they still had to leave a few insults.
Finished
[So shameless. Like idol, like fans. Your followers are just like you. Yesterday they were saying the Khiburn explosion didn’t hurt the firefighters because you stopped them. They even said that weird explosion circle was connected to you, that you reduced the damage. Seriously, have some shame!]
In truth, Scarlett’s fans had never said anything like that.
Those claims came from random guesses and sarcastic comments from haters.
But in the end, all of it got blamed on Scarlett’s fans.
That was exactly how rumors were born.
Meanwhile, Cedric sat in his office. He looked at the online reactions after the production team announced Scarlett’s role. As expected, many internet users were unhappy.
Maggie had already told him what really happened. The role had not been reserved for Scarlett. She had simply auditioned in Calvert’s office.
Everyone in the film industry knew how demanding Calvert was about his projects. If an actor didn’t have real talent, he would never assign them a role.
That meant Scarlett’s office audition must have impressed him a lot.
Cedric didn’t really care about what people online were saying.
In a few days, the crew would release the official photos. Once people saw Scarlett dressed as Princess Mona, they would understand how perfect she looked for the role.
But then Cedric saw Scarlett replying to the haters online.
She said Calvert chose her because her good acting.
Cedric no longer felt anything. He had already accepted it.
Since he couldn’t get control of the Instagram account, Scarlett could argue with whoever she wanted.
He was used to it.
Besides, those haters could never win against Scarlett anyway,
Just look at her replies. She even wrote back to someone. [If your skin is that thin, it’s probably because your skin barrier is weak. That’s a condition. You should see a doctor or your face will become sensitive and break out. Do you enjoy having bad skin?]
[Next time Lavender runs over to bother me again, I’ll still push back, So tell her to stay far away.
When haters mocked her, saying she was pretending to have saved the firefighters during the Khiburn explosion, Scarlett replied again.

[Of course I did. I saw something dangerous at the fire location, so I went down and stopped them. They might even give me a reward for it. Does that make you mad?]
Cedric took a deep breath.
For a moment, he couldn’t tell if Scarlett was joking or telling the truth.
And that strange explosion–did it have anything to do with her?
Why wasn’t Scarlett explaining it clearly?
Cedric suddenly felt curious.
No matter how curious he was, he knew one thing for sure.
If he were one of those haters reading Scarlett’s replies, he would probably be furious.
And that was exactly what happened. Under Scarlett’s replies, the haters and Lavender’s fans were furious when they saw Scarlett still had the energy to reply to them–and with those kinds of comments.
Since they couldn’t find anything else to attack her for, they focused on the one thing she admitted.
The claim that she had saved the firefighters.
[Wow, you really know how to brag. Claimed you saved people and might even get a reward? Sure. The firefighters and the government aren’t going to come out and deny it, so you can say whatever you want. Go ahead and keep pretending.]
