Chapter 103: If You’re Going to Do It, Do It Flawlessly
"Have you gotten all the photos ready?" Raymond Ford asked Leah Young.
"Mhm, they’re ready. I made sure to get the perfect angle for every single shot."
"Any news on Rhona Hughes?"
"It looks like she really has been shelved."
"Wayne Payne put so much effort into Rhona Hughes. Is he just going to accept this? Isn’t Rose Shaw being a little too ruthless?" Raymond was actually more worried that Rose Shaw would find out what he was doing.
Rhona Hughes’s fate worried him.
"If Rhona Hughes hadn’t been shelved, we could have still used her."
"Have you found out anything about Landon Harmon’s situation? Why exactly was Rose Shaw able to deal with him so easily?"
"What other way is there besides money? For a guy like Landon Harmon, it’s even possible that Melody Monroe went to... keep him company," Leah Young guessed.
"Rhona Hughes is useless now, and Landon Harmon is unreliable." ’I can’t end up like Rhona Hughes. If I’m going to do this, it has to be flawless.’
"Raymond, what are you thinking?"
"Zane Langdon has a powerful fan club, especially those crazy ’wife’ fans. You should never underestimate the power of fans."
"I get it now!" Leah Young nodded immediately.
...
Zane Langdon’s fan club was incredibly powerful. Everyone had their own role, and the massive team of fans was managed with perfect organization.
Besides the official verified fan account, there were all sorts of fan circles and group chats.
In the largest of these group chats, everyone shared photos of their idol every day, basking in the glory of his divine looks.
Suddenly, a photo that didn’t belong appeared.
It looked like it had been taken during filming.
"Who’s the woman in the photo?"
"Looks like Melody Monroe."
"Isn’t this a photo of Zane from the set of *Warm Wind Blowing North*?"
"That woman, why is she harassing Zane! Can’t you see how tired he looks? And she’s still there, running her mouth!"
The photo was indeed very suggestive.
Zane Langdon was leaning back in a chair, looking somewhat exhausted, while Melody Monroe appeared to be saying something to him.
"Melody Monroe is playing Willow Lynch, right? The one who went from an extra to the second female lead after getting more scenes written for her?"
"I’m a fan of the original novel. I can’t stand Melody Monroe!"
"Holy shit! Whoever posted this photo, show yourself! This woman isn’t trying to get her claws into my husband, is she?!"
"Shameless. You can tell she’s just trying to leech off my husband’s fame!"
"@Zane’sLittleCutie, where did this photo come from? You just dropped a picture and ran! Come out and explain, don’t just leave us here guessing!"
"Yeah, @Zane’sLittleCutie, hurry up and get out here!"
"A friend of mine works on the crew, they gave them to me. There are a lot more. I just felt bad for Zane, so I posted it. Please don’t attack me."
"A lot more? How many do you have?! Post them all!"
"Hurry! @Zane’sLittleCutie, post post post post! What are you afraid of? We’ve got your back. If that woman really dares to lay a finger on Zane, we’ll never let her get away with it!"
Then, several more photos were posted in the group chat.
In every single one, it looked like Melody Monroe was pestering Zane Langdon.
"What the hell! Does this woman have no shame?! Getting so close to my Zane, not even giving him a break when he’s resting."
"@Zane’sHeadButler01, quick, go investigate! Protect our Zane!"
"My heart aches for Zane! Why is he always being coveted by people like this?!"
A few photos were all it took to make the 2,000-member group chat blow up.
Then, they were shared to other group chats, spreading rapidly among the fans in a short amount of time.
