Shawn Gilbert was completely unaware that the conversation was being recorded. He continued to yell at Xyla Quest without being concerned with his image.
“Do as you wish.” Xyla put the call on loudspeaker before tossing her phone onto the coffee table.
“You’re already like a mouse trapped in a corner. Why are you still so arrogant? Very well. I’ll ruin Josh Batton first. After that, I’ll deal with X Entertainment and the rest of you… At first, I wanted to allow you to salvage the situation. It looks like that’s not necessary anymore,” Shawn said with a threatening tone.
“Well then, make it worse.” Xyla hung up the phone right after that. She didn’t want to say anything else to that person.
Xyla’s behavior made her appear very cool.
Although Josh had met various types of beautiful women, he was still impressed with Xyla at that moment.
His mood, which was initially ruined by the phone call, had become better.
“This is the first time I’ve met someone as shameless as him,” Georgie said.
“Yeah…” Josh chuckled.
“Georgie… Help them out by making up more rumors. Make this thing even more viral…” Xyla poured herself another cup of floral tea.
“Okay,” Georgie answered right away.
“Don’t be angry. I’ll make it up to you…” Xyla patted Josh’s shoulder gently and said.
“Okay…” Josh nodded.
He’d listen to whatever she said.
***
After that, things escalated even further.
On average, Josh’s name appeared on the list of trending topics close to ten times every day. All of them involved negative news about him.
People were making all sorts of negative stuff about him.
There was no telling whether any of these rumors were true at all.
Somebody said that Josh would soon be boycotted, while others said that Josh would lose all of his resources, and all the brands he was currently an ambassador for would replace him with someone else.
