Chapter 1033
When the screenwriter couldn’t take the criticism anymore, he went public with the original script and tweeted about it.
He hoped one day the creative control over the scripts would truly lie in the hands of the writers themselves, instead of being swayed by the audience’s hype. Professionals should be the ones to handle professional matters, not letting random people make changes and then having others take the blame.
His tweet immediately sparked a heated discussion online
Many screenwriters shared his post, causing quite a stir. Even some official media outlets expressed their views.
The online controversy was fierce, but the hype only lasted for half a day before it was suppressed
Since this incident, the ratings for Whispers of the Roses continued to plummet. By the time it reached its finale, it didn’t even make it to the trending charts.
Half a year later, Sydney was named the most disappointing actress of the year for her role in this drama.
Of course, she didn’t show up to accept the award.
Whispers of the Roses was a failed attempt at a career change for Sydney After this drama ended, she went back to doing low budget dramas.
Whispers of the Roses was also removed from her Wikipedia page by her fans. Her works list didn’t include this drama, and her fans even locked the page to prevent others from making changes.
Now, whenever Whispers of the Roses is mentioned online, it is bound to be attacked by Sydney’s fans, even if the person has no ill intentions.
Sydney herself remained silent about the drama, so when Celeste asked her about it, her face tumed sour
Failing to change careers isn’t something to be ashamed of, but if you fail and don’t allow others to mention it, that’s truly embarrassing.
Celeste was the kind of person who knew how to hit where it hurts. Even Liam wouldn’t dare to mess with her, not to mention Sydney
Seeing that everyone kept silent, Celeste pretended to be surprised and said, “Really? Have you only done one serious drama? That’s not good. You should take on more senous roles. Low budget dramas may attract fans, but senous dramas are the way to go for long–term development. Even though the age limit for idol dramas has been relaxed, isn’t it time to give young actors a chance when you’re still doing idol dramas at forty?”
Hearing this, Sydney’s face turned very ugly.
She didn’t want to admit her failure in transitioning, so she stubbornly said. “I haven’t done serious dramas simply because I haven’t come across a good script. if there’s a good script, of course, I’ll do it.”
Celeste chuckled. “You don’t need to wait for a script, do you? Don’t you have a well–connected boyfriend? If he can get you a role in Regal Ambitions, can’t he get you other good dramas?”
Everyone around widened their eyes.
The news of Sydney having a boyfriend was rife with rumors and had been caught on camera. The most memorable incident was when Sydney and her boyfriend spent the night together at Grandview Villa
This was solid evidence of their ‘close contact“, and then they returned to Sydney’s villa
Although the online hype was suppressed, Sydney’s scandal was discussed for a long time, and she never publicly clarified it.
Sydney’s career skyrocketed, and it is said that a large part of it was due to her rumored boyfriend.
However, recently there seems to be no news about her rumored boyfriend, probably since she broke her contract with the company.
And it was after Sydney broke her contract that her career started to decline. So the most widely spread rumor was that Nicolas was her rumored boyfriend.
This was something people only dared to discuss privately. After all, one was a popular idol in the entertainment industry, and the other was the president of one of the top five entertainment companies Nobody wanted to offend either
Everyone thought Celeste was taking a risk. Only Sydney knew that Celeste was warning her.
Meddling in other people’s marriages and destroying their relationships was her biggest scandal.
