    “You actually looked that up?” Mason chuckled softly. “That was just something the colleagues at our


    firm put together, might be a bit exaggerated.”


    Even so, the parts about academic papers and university degrees were all true.


    Mason was really outstanding.


    She said with a smile, “Well, it still means you’ve been qualified. If not, just work hard to learn those


    skills.”


    Masonughed too, “Alright, I’ll try”


    He paused, then continued, “I saw that you deactivated the ‘Celestial Haze’ ount.”


    Celeste thought he was worried about having insufficient evidence during thewsuit and said, “I saved


    all the screenshots.”


    “That’s not what I meant, Mason said with a tight-lipped smile, “Actually, there are other ways to clear


    up those rumors without having to quit social media.”


    “Like suing her?” Celesteughed, “She didn’t name names, and even if I did sue her, she could just


    deny it. If I was still online, they’d say I was lying no matter what I posted, and that it’s my bad luck. As


    awyer, you should know this better than me.”


    Mason didn’t respond.


    His so-called ‘solution was really just a matter of letting time pass and allowing the issue to fade.


    Legally speaking, they could issue awyer’s letter. Theizens were just venting, and it would


    eventually die down.


    But that wasn’t a real rification. Once the rumors took root in people’s hearts, they would be hard to


    eradicate. No one would keep track of this matter forever.


    Although logging out of the inte would hurt, it was Celeste’s most effective and direct counterattack.


    Like Trisha, Mason felt a sense of pity for the deactivated ount.


    Celeste was more optimistic: “Even though the ount is gone, I’ll still continue to sue those who


    should be sued. So, I’ll still need your help.”


    Mason rxed a bit: “Actually, I was nning to contact you in the next few days. The application I


    submitted to the tform has been answered. Here is the identity information for the main members,


    take a look.”


    He opened his phone, scrolling through several screenshots for Celeste to see.


    Celeste frowned as she nced at them, and her expression worsened as she went through the rest.


    Even after seeing all the screenshots, her furrowed brow remained tense and unrxed.


    With a sigh, Mason said, “I figured this might happen when I was doing the investigation.”


    “Underaged?” Celeste couldn’t believe it.


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    Among the haters who insulted her in the past, the oldest was 21 years old, and the youngest was just


    14.


    Out of the nine main members, five were underaged.


    “Does this mean I can’t sue anymore?”


    “It’s not that you can’t, but it’s hard to convict them. Even if thewsuit is sessful, all they’ll have to


    do is write an apology and have their guardian pay somepensation”


    If the defendant was a minor, the situation would beplicated, as thew was more lenient on


    them.


    They attacked strangers with nastyments online, even causing some to have mental breakdowns


    and develop depression. Yet these same attackers could avoid more severe consequences just


    because they were underage. That was so unfair!


    Celeste felt suffocated.
