"Hey, have you heard? Megan went viral!"
The man grunted in response, engrossed with his phone.
"Bloody hell. Boss, this is Megan! Damn, send me that photo with that pose."
The phrase "Megan Rockford's leaked" stole the number one spot for most popular searches on Twitter, followed by the word "hot." Amongst the other popular searches were "leaks source," "Megan Rockford family," and "Megan Rockford boyfriend." It was the same throughout all social media platforms.
Megan was perplexed by the sight of her manager's furious gaze. She had been home this entire time and had not received any notifications, nor had she met anybody.
She was not aware of what she had done to earn her manager's chagrin. That was why she was shocked speechless when she picked up the photos slammed by her manager on her desk.
It was a stack of raunchy photos of a couple in the midst of intercourse. The tangled mass of limbs made it unable to tell where the woman's skin ended and the man's began. It was enough to make anybody blush with embarrassment.
The thing that shocked Megan the most was the fact that all of the photos were of herself.
"Look at what you've done!" the manager yelled with bulging eyes whilst jabbing a furious finger at her nose.
Megan hurriedly flipped through the photos in search of something to prove her innocence.
"No, this is not me! I've never done anything like this! I don't even know this man!"
I'm still a virgin!
The woman hurriedly turned on her computer and entered her own name into a search engine. She was immediately greeted by many more photos of the same theme.
The comments around the office were unflattering to hear.
"How revolting..."
Megan felt her head pounding, and she leaned on the couch dejectedly.
She did not know who had gone to such lengths to destroy her reputation like that.
A month ago, she had begun a relationship with a wealthy heir of the show business industry. That was when she found her name being implicated in tabloids. As her career was on the rise, she had hoped it would be aided by her sudden burst of fame. To Megan's surprise, the man in the raunchy photos was the man she had dated.
His assistant had blackmailed her for stemming the damage she had done to his reputation by threatening her future in the industry.
That was why she had spent a long time at home in quarantine and rejected any attempts to reach her. She had hoped that her hype would die down with time.
However, she did not expect the photos to surface. Megan gazed at her manager, as though hoping that the latter would be able to explain the situation.
