Edward Foster’s company’s PR director was frantically looking for Lawrence Winters.
Lawrence Winters had taken leave again, saying that a family mber was seriously ill and hospitalized.
But at this mont, it was when they most needed a spokesperson from the PR departnt to step up and turn the tide, so he quickly called her.
While they were searching for Lawrence, the online topic about Lucas Harlow was escalating rapidly.
"What trouble did Lucas Harlow get into? Isn’t NewHuman Corporation going to make a move?"
"Lucas Harlow definitely caused trouble! Otherwise, would the police be involved?! Do you think our police officers are eating vegetarian?"
"I’ve long disliked this guy! Clearly a rich second generation, why co to the entertainnt industry to steal others’ jobs?"
"I knew sothing was fishy! An 18th-tier small actor always playing supporting roles, suddenly skyrocketing to top star in just a year!"
"He must have used tricks!"
"Reject scandalous celebrities!"
"Lucas Harlow, get out of the entertainnt industry!"
"I just want to see him out of the entertainnt circle! I just want him gone! I can’t stand him!"
"So what if he’s a top star?! You reap what you sow if you break the rules!"
...
The online trending topics were skyrocketing.
In the blink of an eye, at least eight out of the top ten trending topics were related to Lucas Harlow.
Even many ordinary bystanders who weren’t interested in the entertainnt industry were educated about "Lucas Harlow."
This na truly went mainstream before the fantasy drama that Lawrence had planned for him was even broadcast.
Then so companies that once considered Lucas Harlow for comrcial endorsents quickly issued statents, saying the online rumors were false, and they had never considered Lucas Harlow.
So production teams that wanted Lucas Harlow to star in their scripts and had been using his na to create buzz for months also quickly distanced themselves.
Moreover, many of the tens of millions of fans that Lucas Harlow had just accumulated were now unfollowing and criticizing him.
Fans can be very forgiving of male stars. Even if they cheat or commit dostic violence, as long as they admit their mistakes honestly, they can bounce back in a few years.
But there’s one thing they can’t touch—breaking the law. Once they beco a "criminal coffee," they’re completely done.
This ti, Lucas Harlow was solidly confird to have been taken away by the police for investigation, as there were photos and videos taken by onlookers.
These photos and videos were being wildly shared on social dia, causing many platforms to crash.
When Lawrence Winters received the call from the PR director, she was carrying the breakfast she’d bought that morning to the hospital for Gabrielle Winters.
"What? Lucas Harlow was taken away by the police? For what reason?" Lawrence was shocked.
The PR director said irritably, "How am I supposed to know? Aren’t you his manager?! Are you asking ?! You’re also our PR spokesperson! How are you doing your job?!"
Although Lawrence was anxious, she didn’t panic. She calmly said, "Got it, don’t worry, I’ll handle it right away."
After a pause, she added, "Since it’s up to to handle this, you manage the rest of the company well. All external communications should solely co from . Don’t let anyone ’leak’ information. If anyone does, fire them imdiately to set an example."
The PR director nodded, "Understood. You don’t need to say, I’ll definitely keep an eye on it. But you can’t delay any longer, the longer it drags on, the more it affects Lucas’s reputation."
Lawrence got into her car, checked the trending topics on her phone, and then called Lucas Harlow’s assistant Jason.
"Jason, what’s going on with Lucas? Why didn’t you call ?"
Jason, playing gas in his rented room, asked in confusion, "Mr. Harlow is fine, why should I call you?"
Lawrence: "..."
She closed her eyes briefly and said, "Jason, the internet says Lucas was taken away by the police for investigation, and you tell everything’s fine?"
"Oh, that thing!" Jason laughed, "It’s not taking away for investigation, it’s assisting with an investigation, there’s no problem."
Lawrence’s mouth twitched.
Being taken away for investigation and assisting with an investigation are two completely different things.
How did it beco so horrible online?
Who’s stirring up trouble?
For cautiousness, Lawrence asked again, "Do you know which police station it is?"
Though the trending topics were exploding online, strangely, no one ntioned which police station it was.
After all, everyone imagined all the details just from seeing police cars, badges, and photos and videos of Lucas getting into a police car.
Jason dutifully told Lawrence the police station’s na and phone number.
Lawrence planned to call Lucas Harlow first.
If it was just assisting with an investigation, he wouldn’t be denied phone calls.
