Chapter 468 – #68. Vivienne Laurent (9)
Had her man’s company been in a frenzy of hers and hadn’t had the courage to harass her?
Even after she went through her press conference safely, the man didn’t move much.
It’s so quiet that it’s worrying.
Vivian prepared for the press conference, suppressing her nervousness.
And finally, the day of the press conference dawned.
[Cheer up. You’ll do just fine. :)]
Before entering the press conference room, Vivian gave strength to her droopy shoulders when she received a cheering message from Jin Hae-sol.
As his body stretched out, he felt more confident.
More reporters than expected were gathered in the conference room.
Among those reporters, there must be someone who was instigated by a man.
When Vivian, who had her heart set, appeared, her reporters shot her by pressing the extension shutters.
Click click click click –
– This is Vivian Laurent.
There was still unbreakable strength in her voice.
This press conference will not change public opinion instantly, but it will give hope.
She wanted to clear up at least the misunderstanding.
Are you abusing Mimi? Isn’t that ridiculous?
Even if the reporters acted in a bad way, I hoped that the part would be clearly explained and published as an article.
That was also her purpose for holding a press conference.
She prayed inwardly that her own simple purpose might be fulfilled.
And she finally lifted her mic amidst an indiscriminate stream of questions from reporters.
♧ ♧ ♧
Vivian nervously enters the press conference.
I was watching her live with Bianca and her like that.
“Is that what you did to the reporters?”
“Of course I did. That’s why I only ask such cooperative and pretty questions.”
The reporters whom Bianca used her hand in were already aware of Vivian’s explanation, so they were asking questions precisely by catching the part she wanted to answer.
Of course, not everyone could be an ally, so there were reporters who tried to pull aggro in the wrong direction.
However, another reporter soon evoked the atmosphere with a question.
Thanks to this, Vivian was able to focus on her interview by quickly regaining her calm expression after showing her uneasy appearance in the beginning.
“You explain better than I thought. Make sure you apologize for the part you need to apologize for, and firmly say no to misunderstood rumors.”
“The sincerity is evident from the expression on the face. To be honest, it was too much to drag the kid in and create dirty rumors.”
This was enough to change public opinion.
Isn’t there a difference between a person who lies and a person who tells the truth?
Now is the time for those who have been swayed by public opinion created by men to come to their senses.
“I ask reporters to write good articles. So that the explanation can be widely spread.”
“Yes, I will.”
“You look good these days.”
“Lol. An article will explode in two days.”
“Is it something to do with that man?”
“Yeah~ I’m still researching, but I caught one big hit. This man made a lot of pocket money by manipulating stock prices. Being greedy for money is no joke. It must be huge to hide.”
Even though she wanted to eat all that money, it was impossible even for Bianca to find out the hidden money.
“Then this man won’t suffer even if the company collapses.”
“Ho-ho-ho! Perhaps the legal battle won’t last that long either. A cotton bat will be the punishment.”
“Does that happen overseas? Aren’t they punished properly?”
“Of course, the sentence won’t be weak, but that side has a splendid lawyer corps.”
It is true that the punishment is much stronger than in Korea, but according to the judge’s ruling, it is possible to punish with a cotton bat.
In particular, it was a possible scenario to create a person who would put a dump on an army of lawyers armed with money.
But I wasn’t worried that I wouldn’t be able to retaliate properly.
Because the Bianca I knew wasn’t the kind of person to be content with just that much.
“You mean it could happen, or are you going to make it come out like that on purpose?”
“If I just tell you, I’ll lose my temper, so I won’t tell you in advance. Please look forward to. You will find out soon.”
Bianca gives a wacky smile.
And as she said, after a while, the news of the man appeared in the article.
While Vivian’s press conference for two days became a hot topic on the Internet, the news of the man did not receive much attention from people.
[CEO of ○○○, missing while investigating embezzlement charges.]
[CEO of ○○○, concludes with escape. The possibility of escaping abroad is high…]
[Suspension of delayed departure. The family says they are missing and requests an investigation.]
“Is it true that this article disappeared?”
“I hope it’s real. Did you see that I missed my prey?”
“Do you have it?”
“Yes! Even if he is punished legally, he will eventually live for a few years and then come out and live again. It’s not like I can find the money I’ve hidden. So I caught him.”
What would you do with the hidden money?
I can’t use it
Rather, the existence of such money will make the man more distressed.
“What are you going to do after locking it up?”
“Have you ever seen that in a movie? It’s a famous movie because it’s a masterpiece.”
Movie?
“It’s about a man who gets kidnapped and lives in captivity for over 10 years.”
Because the world line has changed, it is not a movie with that famous title I know.
However, in this world, there was a work similar to the movie I knew.
It was a great work that won awards at famous awards ceremonies abroad, but the director who made this work was director Yeon Hwa-jeong, who had suggested the work to me.
“Are you going to do a reenactment of that?”
“You can’t keep it that long. Still, I thought it would be better than seeing them comfortably in prison. I’m only going to keep him locked up for as long as he has to pay for his crimes. After that, I’ll let you go cleanly.”
However, even if they were freed from confinement, it would be difficult to live a normal life.
It would be a difficult time for a man who was born in a good family and lived under protection.
“Will you give me one menu?”
“Yes. What to do? Shall we make red bean bread according to the movie?”
Sweet red bean bread with lukewarm water.
He says he’ll put a small TV in his 24-hour surveillance camera.
“Even if you run away from that room, it’s useless. We are planning to build a confinement facility on an uninhabited island.”
Would it be better to live with Bianca bullying her for the rest of her life, or would it be better to stay in neat confinement?
Personally, I think both are the worst.
“Do what you plan.”
He did a lot of bad things, so it’s cheap even if he suffers like that.
Because Vivian had to protect Mimi, she was able to win her heart, otherwise she might have made a bad choice with this incident.
As much as that, her public opinion pushing her was extremely overheated.
Gying-
Not long after the article appeared, I got a call to see if Vivian had confirmed it.
“Is that actress lady?”
“I have a child, but not a lady.”
“It seems that the owner has a heart for you.”
“Well, I can’t say no.”
“A relationship that is progressing?”
“I am not sure yet. Because Mimi is there.”
This incident seemed to move my heart a lot, but Mimi didn’t know if she would accept me as her mother’s lover.
‘They like me so much that the reaction is rather unexpected.’
Isn’t it a completely different thing to like me as a fan and meet her as her mother’s lover?
“Then the master? I am very curious about the mind of the former owner.”
“Me? I am…”
It’s true that I was attracted to Vivian.
It is also true that Mimi, who likes me, has a crush on her.
However, Vivian and I had already been embroiled in a scandal, so I had to be very careful about meeting to build a good relationship.
Isn’t it possible to talk about the effect of glasses to someone who is not my woman?
“I’m still undecided.”
“I think the owner I know will add one more woman.”
“… Great.”
“You’re not good at seducing women.”
“How good am I at iron walls?”
“Whoop whoop. It’s because your eyes are high.”
Although he usually hits the iron wall well, when a woman he likes appears, he snatches it like a predator hunting prey.
“I have enough for now, I have no intention of increasing it.”
“Huh~ Well~”
“Are you going to keep doing that?”
“Huh, if you ever need my help, let me know. I can help you seduce her.”
“Will I ask you to do that?”
I got a call from Vivian, leaving behind Bianca, who was talking nonsense.
If she had seen her article, it was a message related to a man.
[Are you okay? I saw the article. I’m fine, so don’t be too upset. And thank you for your help. Please contact me when the time is right.]
Naive, she must have thought the man’s disappearance was an escape abroad.
Many people would be thinking that the man who suddenly disappeared would be living abroad with money by now.
Just as Bianca expected.
“Vivian.”
She gave Bianca a sneak peek of hers, and she perfectly understood and avoided her.
As soon as I was left alone, I connected the phone to Vivian.
-Yes, Mr. Haesol.
“I was contacted and called. Did you read the article?”
– Yes, I saw it. The company must have been in a more serious situation than I thought. I didn’t know you would run away like that…
“Sorry. I was trying to be more specific.”
-I’m fine. Don’t even worry about Haesol. I was contacting you because I was worried that you would be so concerned. As I said then, I’m satisfied as long as he doesn’t bother us. Thanks to Mr. Haesol for touching that man, he didn’t have time to bully me. Public opinion has been turning in my favor since the press conference. It’s been a while since I saw a comment saying support.
She was encouraged that public opinion was slowly returning to her.
Some people have changed their minds and cleared up their misunderstandings with Vivian’s press conference, but public opinion is rapidly changing thanks to Bianca’s help.
“Are you really satisfied with that? The work was completely cut off because of this.”
The sad thing is that even though public opinion has changed, Vivian’s damage has not completely disappeared.
There was no one involved who wanted to cast Vivian, whose image had already been damaged, as an actress.
If she continues like this and no one casts, she, Vivian, will no longer be able to work as an actress.
The thought of Vivian continuing to suffer from the damage the man had left her made her very unhappy.
-I’m out of work now, but I need to recover slowly. I am satisfied that this matter was resolved safely. Mimi just doesn’t have to stress anymore.
“Hey, how is Mimi?”
– She’s Mimi, she’s much better than she used to be. And she worried a lot that it would be a burden to her if I said this…
Vivian slurred her words, but I caught a glimpse of the situation.
“Does she want Mimi to see me?”
She said that Mimi wants to see me.
