Chapter 152
Jenna immediately went over to check.
After only a quick glance, Jenna's face was already flushed with anger.
It turned out that late last night, a minor internet celebrity had posted on social media with photos attached.
She falsely claimed that the crystal bead bracelets sold in Jenna's store were fake products that not only faded but also caused her severe skin allergies!
What made Jenna even angrier was that in such a short time, many people had already left comments under the post. Just moments ago, several people had even exposed that the bracelets in her store were all designed by Charlotte, who also handled the ordering.
They also mentioned that Charlotte had just signed up for the National Design Competition being held in River City!
Many comments quickly followed below.
[Kick her out of the design competition!]
[Right, this kind of person is a disgrace to the design industry!]
[This person doesn't deserve to be called a designer!]
[Get out! The design world doesn't need scum like this!]
"I'm so mad!" Jenna got angrier the more she read.
A staff member quickly brought her some water. "Jenna, have some water and calm down."
Jenna gulped down a big mouthful of water.
At this moment, one of the staff members hesitantly asked: "Jenna, should we tell Charlotte about this?"
Jenna's hand paused mid-drink. "No need."
"Don't worry about this. Just watch the store."
"Okay." The staff members all left.
Jenna sat alone, her hands trembling with anger as she held the cup.
They were too vicious!
It was one thing to slander her store, but they even dragged Charlotte into it!
Charlotte had already found a studio and was just waiting to win an award at the design competition to promote the studio's opening.
But now, everything was ruined.
Maybe Charlotte's qualification to compete would be cancelled too.
The more Jenna thought about it, the angrier she got, and the more restless she became.
She was almost completely certain that this had something to do with Sabrina.
And that bastard Calvin!
It must be him!
Last time, he used the Wallace Family's resources to lead an online attack against Charlotte.
Jenna became more and more certain.
She put down her cup and quickly made a call. "Hello, I need to ask you a favor. Help me check this internet celebrity's background."
After hanging up, about ten minutes later, the person called Jenna back: "Found it. That woman works for the Wallace Family."
"It really was Calvin!"
Jenna gritted her teeth, almost crushing her phone case.
Then, after much effort, Jenna finally got Calvin's phone number.
"Calvin, you bastard!" As soon as the call connected, Jenna started cursing. "It's one thing to frame me, but Charlotte too? I'll deal with you!"
Hearing Jenna's furious voice, Calvin just sneered dismissively: "Jenna, are you sick? Do you need me to recommend a psychiatrist?"
Jenna wanted nothing more than to tear Calvin apart right then.
"Calvin, you had the balls to do it, but not the guts to admit it?"
Calvin was so angry that veins bulged on his forehead!
'Jenna, you're asking for it. Don't blame anyone else!' he thought.
A few minutes later, Jenna put down her phone.
Calvin actually said he didn't know about this. Could it be that the internet celebrity acted on her own?
He even said he could take her to confront the celebrity and have her delete the post.
She wouldn't believe Calvin's words!
But if she didn't go, Charlotte might get dragged into this mess.
For Charlotte's sake, she had to go!
Besides, Calvin wouldn't dare do anything to her.
Having made up her mind, Jenna quickly gave some instructions and left for the location Calvin mentioned.
Charlotte waited from morning until dark, but Jenna still didn't show up. She had called several times, but no one answered.
Faintly, she had a bad feeling.
Remembering she had added one of the staff members' contact info, she quickly sent a message.
Soon, the staff member replied, saying Jenna had left around noon and hadn't returned since.
Jenna must be in trouble!
Although Jenna was a bit careless by nature, she was reliable in her work. Unless something special happened, she wouldn't disappear without a word for so long.
Charlotte couldn't sit still anymore.
She remembered the staff member also mentioned that before leaving, Jenna had asked someone to check a minor internet celebrity's background.
And that celebrity had just posted last night on social media, falsely claiming Jenna's bracelets were fake products and hinting that Charlotte was involved.
Charlotte could guess that with Jenna's hot temper, she must have gone to confront that celebrity.
As for why Jenna didn't tell Charlotte about this, it must be because she didn't want Charlotte, who had just dealt with the exhibition incident yesterday, to worry about this too.
After figuring out the whole story, Charlotte's heart felt both warm and heavy.
'Jenna, you big dummy! You're dealing with this alone? Do you even consider me your best friend anymore? When I find you, I'm going to scold you properly! ' she thought.
Since she needed to find out the celebrity's address first and also find someone to temporarily take care of Philip, Charlotte thought it over and decided to call Landon.
The moment the call connected, Landon's side was very quiet, so quiet that Charlotte could even hear his soft breathing.
"You are calling pretty late. Is something wrong?"
Landon's voice was low and husky, as if he'd just been through an intense debate.
Hearing Landon's voice, Charlotte suddenly felt her ears tingle a bit. She couldn't help but recall yesterday before getting out of the car, when Landon helped remove lint from her eyelashes.
However, she quickly scolded herself internally.
'Charlotte, what are you thinking? Finding Jenna is what matters.'
So she poured everything out.
The first thing was asking Landon to help find the celebrity's address, and the second was asking him to send someone to look after Philip temporarily, because she needed to go find Jenna.
After she finished, Landon was silent for a second.
"Okay, don't go out yet. Wait at home."
With that, he quickly hung up.
Charlotte stood there holding her phone, stunned.
What did he mean? Wait at home? But wait until when?
It was already close to 8 PM.
Jenna had been out of contact for over nine hours.
Philip seemed to sense something and walked over very obediently, feeding Charlotte a grape. "Charlotte, don't worry. Jenna will be fine."
Charlotte could barely taste anything, but she still smiled at Philip. "Right, Jenna will definitely be fine."
Just when Charlotte felt like time was standing still, her phone rang.
