I Want a Divorce (Abigail and Sean) novel Chapter 299

Chapter 299 The First One to Stand Up for Her

Luna exploded when she saw the nonsense the netizens were spouting.

She licked her l*ps and hissed with anger, “They don’t know anything. So, how dare they a*sume things about you?”

Abigail looked at the increasingly uncontrollable comments and said seriously, “These comments are likely from internet trolls with the aim of provoking irrational reactions from some people so that they will dig up my personal information and tarnish my reputation.”

This incident was a silent standoff between the Pearsons and her.

The Pearsons wouldn’t wait for the official report. Instead, they would use the internet to stir things up and create more trouble for her.

Luna looked at her with concern.

“We need to investigate if what the a*sailant said is true,” Abigail said calmly.

“All right. I’ll immediately have someone help you with this!” Luna quickly got up to contact her friends.

Nevertheless, before Luna’s people could look into the matter, Eric had taken the initiative to defend her. He even went as far as to tag the entertainment news outlet.

He wrote to Capitalis Entertainment, And here I thought an account with a blue tick and millions. of followers on Instagram would do some investigation before posting an article. An innocent victim was in surgery for four hours and was barely saved from the clutches of death. The police haven’t even released an official statement regarding the incident. Yet, here you are, posting that the a*sailant was diagnosed with a mental illness, and the blame is to be placed on one of the victims a young woman? Have I lost my marbles, or have you? Is this what the world has come to? The fact that the a*sailant has a mental illness and was previously hurt might be a reason behind his actions. However, does it justify attempted murder? It’s the victims who had no knowledge of the situation. Yet, now they have to endure online rumors all because of your irresponsibility. Why isn’t anyone speaking up about this?”

After Eric’s Instagram post, many celebrities and accounts with blue ticks reposted it.

Just because someone looks similar, they’re at risk of being smeared by internet rumors and enduring a second round of harm. God, I truly hope that none of you out there has any doppelgangers going around torturing someone. Aren’t the police going to do something about. Capitalis Entertainment? What nonsense is this? A lunatic commits murder, and they blame it on someone who looks similar to the attacker’s tormentor? So, are you actually saying that anyone who resembles someone else should go for plastic surgery to avoid being mistaken for a murderer? Are you seriously trying to say that someone should be blamed for looking like someone the killer knows if they refuse to change their features? This is ridiculous!”

1/3

Tdidn’t know that victims would be at fault for resembling someone the attacker knows. The victim is already unfortunate enough to have been seen by the murderer. Yet, they’re supposed to suffer this outrageous smear campaign started by some unscrupulous internet users spreading rumors after that incident? Are you kidding me? The victim almost lost his life. Yet, what are you doing? You netizens and this absolute trash of an entertainment news outlet are taking the side of the murderer! What are all of you on? Since I’m already at it, I think the police should investigate these commentators to see if there are potential murderers hiding among them!”

Due to Eric’s condemnation, the news from Capitalis Entertainment went viral.

However, Capitalis Entertainment deleted the Instagram post within half an hour.

Although some netizens continued to protest, the Capitalis police finally released an official

statement.

The murderer has been diagnosed with an inherited mental illness, and his experiences match those mentioned by Capitalis Entertainment. However, his mental illness was not solely caused by his ex-wife’s control and torment but due to his long history of gambling and alcohol abuse, which made him extremely unstable. The a*sault with a knife was not due to the young woman’s resemblance to his ex-wife but was the result of manipulation. The case is under further investigation, and we hope that netizens will use the internet rationally and not add to the secondary harm to the victims.

The handling of this case was relatively fast.

Abigail’s information was not exposed, and the Instagram account of Capitalis Entertainment was banned.

If Eric hadn’t spoken out promptly; the public sentiment would likely have been unfavorable to

her.
