Chapter 360
The two snuck back into their room. As soon as she got back, Gracie started griping, “That Damian is such a numb! Couldn’t he have apologized in private? Making a scene like that in public not only didn’t clear up the internet trolls‘ suspicions about Astrid, but it actually made them even more convinced that Astrid has a sugar daddy!”
“Totally,” Selena moaned. “Now all the keyboard warriors think that Damian was threatened into providing fake evidence to defend Astrid!”
“It breaks my heart to see Astrid, who’s such a gem, getting dragged through the mud like this!”
The more Gracie thought about it, the angrier she got. “These internet trolls are dead set on not believing that they’re siblings. Even if you were to present irrefutable evidence, they’d still say it’s fabricated!”
The two continued their fiery battle against the irrational internet trolls. Just then, Gracie saw a surveillance video from the elevator and hallway posted by Starlight Entertainment.
The video clearly showed Astrid and Robb’s faces.
They looked incredibly alike, like they could pass as twins!
Then Dale tweeted a high–quality picture of Astrid and Robb. The video was blurry due to the distance and lighting, but the picture clearly showed that the two looked crazily similar.
Dale said, “Seeing my little sweetheart being maliciously slandered is heartbreaking. I’m painful to see such underhanded tactics in our industry, and saddened that Astrid’s hard work is being met with such malice. She’s been trying hard since her debut, always treating those who are kind to her well. Due to certain circumstances, she was separated from her biological parents when she was young, but she was lucky enough to be reunited with her family. She chose to keep her family information hidden to protect them from media attention. The man in the picture is her real brother. The video is right there for everyone to see. I trust that everyone’s eyes are sharp.”
After tweeting, Dale added a reply, “Those who maliciously slander Astrid, Starlight Entertainment won’t let you off the hook. Brace yourself for a lawyer’s letter! Also, a big thank you to all of Astrid’s fans who have supported her. Let’s protect her together in the days ahead.”
Despite the evidence being right there, many continued to sling mud.
“Just because they look alike doesn’t mean they’re siblings. There are tons of lookalikes in the world!”
“I am the one don’t buy it.”
“We’ll protect Astrid together, haters step off!”
“Not gonna lie, Robb is hot!!! Wish he’d debut too!”
“Robb is seriously handsome and their family’s looks are off the charts. I could lose myself in Robb’s dreamy eyes!”
“Some people are just trying to pull the wool over our eyes. Some biased fans just want something to go wrong for our Astrid!”
“Some people are just turning a blind eye to the truth. I bet even if we presented a DNA test, they’d still say it was faked.”
Although some people refused to see reason, most could confirm Robb’s identity after seeing the evidence.
So, the buzz around this matter gradually died down.
Many internet trolls, afraid of getting sued, quickly deleted their negative posts about Astrid and issued apologies.
Seeing this turn of events, Gracie immediately messaged Dale: “Dale, you’re the savior! I can’t believe you found the video!”
Dale replied, “Mr. Lampard gave it to me.”
Gracie was speechless.
Turns out Elio had pulled some strings.
She had been thinking that Elio was useless for not helping out after such a big incident, and that he deserved to get rejected by Astrid.
But it seems like he does have his uses after all.
