Chapter 352: Is Olivia Crazy?

The journalist was speechless. Is Olivia insane, or am I?

“Is there anything else you’d like to ask?” Olivia said with a smile.

The journalist’s expression was incredibly awkward. He had come to enjoy watching Olivia squirm, but instead… Olivia wasn’t upset at all; in fact, she seemed to want more of this kind of situation. This was absurd!

Thinking of his editor’s instructions to dig for dirt on Olivia, the journalist felt helpless. He excused himself to interview other members of the crew.

Olivia didn’t stop him. The journalist first approached Louis, asking about the online rumors of his feud with Lucas.

Louis said, “Anyone is fine, just get that idiot away from me!”

The journalist sensed a real conflict and was about to probe deeper when Lucas rushed over and hugged Louis around the waist, “Louis, let’s go practice acting, or Olivia will beat me up tomorrow!”

Louis snapped, “Let go of me! You fool! If you don’t let go, I won’t hold back!”

“I can take it.”

“You have no shame, do you?”

“Between keeping my dignity and my life, I choose the latter.”

As the journalist watched in shock, Lucas and Benjamin physically carried a despondent Louis away…

The journalist was confused. This isn’t what the online discussions suggested at all!

Feeling dejected, he then spotted the tattooed bald man mentioned in earlier leaks. Online rumors suggested this man was part of the local mafia. If he could link the production to the mafia, his trip would be worthwhile!

He approached the bald man, who wore a badge labeled “Bellamy.”

“There have been rumors online that your crew is linked to the local mafia,” the journalist said.

Bellamy, eyes widening at the mention of the mafia, reported, “Don’t spout nonsense! What mafia? How dare you slander us! We are all good citizens!”

The journalist was taken aback as the bald man stormed off, muttering curses.

Clearly, this crew was a front for money laundering. What kind of entertainment journalist starts an interview by asking about the mafia? Isn’t it obvious?

Still, Olivia’s brazenness impressed him; she wasn’t afraid to let reporters in. She must have a powerful backer.

After half a day of fruitless searching for scandalous material, the journalist dejectedly handed over his recordings to his editor. That tape quickly made its way to Liliana’s office.

As Liliana watched Olivia on video thanking a so-called enthusiastic fan, she couldn’t shake the feeling that Olivia was looking right at her through the screen. Those words of thanks felt more like a taunt, mocking her for helping Olivia save a fortune in advertising costs by reigniting public interest in the drama.

Liliana’s eyes narrowed. Since Olivia was so grateful, she wouldn’t mind helping her a bit more. She made a call.

“Compile all the online insults about Lucas and Benjamin, make two copies, and include the videos and photos the paparazzi sent. Mail them separately to the Moore family and the Thompson family.”
