Chapter 274


    As the direction of the online discourse shifted, everyone began digging for more information, and Pearl


    couldn’t help but smile proudly.

    Richard yed with her hair affectionately. “This beautiful brain of yours must be tired.”


    Pearl shook her head. “Not at all Did you get someone to find the video of Mobius?”


    Richard smiled. “I knew my clever girl would figure it out.”


    “But where’s Mobius? Shouldn’t he say something?”


    “He was druggedst night in a room at a bar. I found him unconscious, and he’s still not awake.”


    Pearl immediately suspected that Hugo was behind Mobius’s drugging. There was no doubt that he


    was involved in this whole


    mess.


    “It’s fine. He’ll be awake soon. What we need to monitor is the direction of the discourse online.”


    They all opened their social media app, and as expected, the posts about Mobius and Esther were


    gradually being buried by other news. It seemed that Lawson Enterprises was trying to divert attention


    away from their involvement in the scandal. Ironically, the person they were scapegoating was Sophia,


    which Pearl considered karma.


    “Well, this hase to an end. As long as Hugo does anything more, he would bring attention to


    himself, so he would probably thread carefully after this.”


    Esther sighed in relief as she looked at Pearl with gratitude. “Pearl, thank you for helping me. I wouldn’t


    have known what to do without you.”


    “Don’t mention it. We got you into this mess because you’re close to us. Just be more careful in the


    future.”


    Pearl noticed that Esther was the only one handling the situation and asked, “Where’s your manager?


    Isn’t she supposed to help you with some PR?”


    Esther seemed indifferent about it. “I’m used to this. She never gets involved when something major


    happens, so I have to handle things on my own.”


    “What a useless manager. You should terminate your contract. I can get you signed with a new


    contract?”


    Esther thought for a moment. “I had a three-year contract, and it’s ending next month.”


    “Perfect. Go to Brilliance then. I promise you’ll be an A-lister and only get the best film offers.”


    “Brilliance? Didn’t you send Clem Gutor there? I wouldn’t want to bother you…”


    Pearl smiled. “Of course not. I’ll even have Clem be your manager.”


    “Thanks a lot then!” Esther was thrilled about leaving her currentpany. They only capitalized on her


    looks, but she aspired to work in high-quality movies and TV shows, rather than just doing


    advertisements.


    “I think most of the fans outside have left. Let’s go out first.” Pearl stood up and bid Esther farewell.


    Once Pearl had left, Esther looked at Christian with disappointment, then sighed. “Chris, I really don’t


    understand why you did all that. Why didn’t you ask me for help instead of taking out a loan?”
