Chapter 1298: Chapter 1298: The Counterattack Against Lorraine Hughes

At first, Watt Bennet didn’t understand Summer Sutton.

But that evening he went over, and the next morning when the hot topics on Weibo came out, he instantly understood.

The next day’s top headline on Weibo was Lorraine Hughes being the third wheel with the producer from the same company, and directly challenging the original partner.

It also included pictures of the three at the hotpot restaurant last night.

The search trend on Weibo reached 5 million; it was probably the most popular Weibo post in recent years.

What kind of person is Lorraine Hughes?

Since her debut, her image has always been good, positive, hailed as the nation’s goddess, a woman as pure and noble as the moonlight.

Because of her family background and her agent’s cultivation, she has basically never had any negative news.

Never mind someone like her, even if it was just an eighteenth-line minor celebrity, news like being a third party would probably deal a huge blow to their acting career, right?

And for Lorraine Hughes, who has always managed her image so well, such news is absolutely unacceptable.

The online search heat for this news was unprecedentedly high, and both Summer Sutton and Watt Bennet were known to be at the stage of planning their wedding.

This time, Lorraine Hughes is undoubtedly the third party.

The tolerance for this kind of thing domestically is very low; once it happens, there’s a deluge of support for the rightful partner.

All the online comments were criticizing Lorraine Hughes and sympathizing with Summer Sutton.

Summer Sutton didn’t even need to buy internet trolls; everyone was unanimously saying things like, "I didn’t expect Lorraine Hughes to be like this."

Being a third party would be bad enough, but to dare to say such provocative words in front of the rightful partner—it’s not just forcing the rightful partner out?

The most troublesome point of this news was that the incident happened at a hotpot restaurant yesterday, and although it was late at night, there were still many people in the store.

The photos uploaded with the news were all genuine.

After the news broke, the first to panic was Lorraine Hughes’ agent.

"I say, Lorraine, what were you thinking? How could you do such a thing in front of so many people? You’ve been in the industry for so many years, I always thought you’d never make such a foolish mistake; you’re a public figure, and a public figure’s image, you know it’s more important than anything else, how could you let such a thing happen last night?"

Lorraine Hughes now also has a terrible headache; she never imagined such news would be stirred up today.

Was it Summer Sutton who had someone release the news?

Is Summer Sutton retaliating against her?

Lorraine Hughes was genuinely impulsive last night, her actions were inappropriate, she didn’t expect Summer Sutton to retaliate like this.

She thought, with Summer Sutton’s temperament, she would have another cold war with Watt Bennet for a while and ignore the matter.

The agent was circling around her, overwhelmed.

Finally, having no other choice, they posted a clarification on Weibo, roughly saying that Lorraine didn’t mean what everyone understood by her words last night. Lorraine wasn’t a third party with anyone, and indeed spent the night with Watt Bennet, but nothing implied by the public happened then.

Whether Watt Bennet and Lorraine Hughes had anything happen, the agent didn’t know.

However, to clarify Lorraine Hughes wasn’t the third party, even if something happened, it could only be denied.

Looking at the current overwhelmingly one-sided public opinion endorsing Summer Sutton, admitting to this matter would likely ruin Lorraine Hughes’ future career.

Besides, domestic control is quite strict in this regard; artists with scandals, no matter how popular you were before, are uniformly banned from appearing in front of the camera.
