Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change? novel Chapter 880

Unless he decided to completely live off the grid, avoiding smartphones, credit cards, and any form of identification—which, in today's world, is almost impossible.

"Nolan's keeping a close eye on this..."

However, there were more urgent matters to address.

Gilbert shifted the conversation, hesitating slightly, "Given the current situation..."

As soon as he started speaking, Sherilyn had a feeling about what was coming and managed a strained smile. "It's pretty bad, isn't it?"

Though she hadn't experienced it firsthand, she was no stranger to the spectacle of public scandals.

How many celebrities had tumbled into disgrace as their scandals went viral online?

Once 'misconduct' surfaces and public opinion starts to snowball, it's nearly impossible to reverse the damage.

Sherilyn clasped her hands tightly on her lap, her knuckles turning white with tension.

"Yes, it is."

Gilbert nodded, unable to dispute that the situation was indeed dire.

But he hadn't come without a plan.

He spoke with careful consideration, "I have a strategy... If you agree, I'm confident we can turn things around."

Sherilyn was taken aback. He had a strategy?

"What kind of strategy?"

"Well..."

Gilbert swallowed, his gaze steady on her.

Speaking slowly and with precision, he said, "We deny everything. Insist that it's all Photoshopped."

"What?"

Sherilyn was shocked.

Photoshopped? Could that really work?

"But can't people tell if something's Photoshopped?"

Gilbert explained, "The picture is quite blurry; most people can't distinguish. I'll have someone manage the narrative online, and it shouldn't be a problem."

"That simple?" Sherilyn frowned, skeptical of the simplicity.

"Of course, it's not that simple."
