Chapter 518
“If it weren’t for Sydney, would she even be popular? She said she wanted to quit the internet, but then pulled this stunt. Isn’t it obvious she’s trying to get back in the publice with this lawsuit?”
“Wouldn’t that be like slapping her own face if she came back?”
“If she really cared about her pride, she wouldn’t keep riding Sydney’s coattails every time she makes the headlines. Just wait till she shows up!”
“If she’s really as beautiful and talented as her fans say, why would she settle for being a voice actor? I can’t wait to see her ugly face, and the looks on her fans‘ faces must be priceless.”
“When taking pictures, don’t purposely brighten them up. No need to give her a filtered effect.”
“Got it.”
Liam’s expression remained neutral.
Although he didn’t quite understand some of the slang in their conversation, it didn’t stop him from realizing that these two people were hostile toward the voice actor named “Celestial Haze.”
He turned to Owen and asked, “Are all fans like this nowadays?”
Owen whispered in response. “This is actually mild. Fans of pop stars can be very aggressive, and online and offline attacks are quite serious.

Nicolas once said that most fans‘ behavior was actually orchestrated by someone connected to the star’s studio. In other words, a lot of fan behavior was actually thought up by the studio. Since that was the case, why would they change? They only hoped the situation gets more
intense.
After listening, Liam suddenly frowned.
He thought of Celeste entering the acting circle and wondered if she would encounter such problems in the future.
Thinking of this, he immediately took out his phone and sent a message to Steven.
II want to invest in Skyline Media Group.]
Steven, on his way to an appointment, saw Liam’s message and was furious. He replied with a “Piss off.”
Lately, Liam had been annoyingly sending various girls‘ information to Hiram’s phone, including famous socialites, politicians‘ daughters, doctors working in hospitals, teachers in schools, and civil servants.
In short, they were all girls with excellent family backgrounds that Steven’s parents deemed
