"Kindhearted? Leslie Howard?" The reporter in charge of the interview nearly lost his grip on the microphone.

Everyone in Eastonia knows Leslie Howard is difficult and ruthless. Winona Wallace treats her so well, yet she constantly disses Winona Wallace in various moments.

Kindhearted, this word has nothing to do with Leslie Howard.

"Yes, it’s Leslie." Lily Redington faced the camera, nodding without hesitation.

"More than four years ago, when Leslie was at the peak of her career, our Gray family was in crisis. At that time, we searched all over Eastonia for available top actresses, and hardly anyone was willing to help us by taking on a role in our film. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

But after Leslie read the script, she agreed. She even canceled several ads and was willing to lower her pay to help us. It’s easy to add flowers to the brocade, but difficult to provide help in adversity. It was during the Gray family’s low period, many actors were unwilling to interact with us, fearing they wouldn’t get paid.

However, Leslie chose to trust us and helped us through the low point. Such a good girl, of course, I must repay her. It was my mistake, being busy taking care of the child and always running abroad. I didn’t even know she was having a hard time back home."

As soon as this interview came out, there was a buzz online.

Initially, some people didn’t believe it, thinking it was just an excuse made up by the CEO of the Gray Group to defend the ’Twin Flowers’ crew.

After all, the Gray family is Lily Redington’s adoptive parents’ company, and Lily Redington, being the Reddington family heiress and Aidan Lucas’s wife, surely couldn’t have had a hard time finding someone to star in their Gray family films.

However, when the meticulous netizens dug up Leslie Howard’s last TV series filmed before her popularity plunged four years ago.

It turned out that the producer of that series was indeed the Gray family.

And reviewing the news from a few years ago, they also found that the Gray family was indeed going through tough times back then.

Squeezed by Wellington Entertainment and the Weldon Group supported by M Country capital, they lost market share, and the fact that the company was once controlled by the Gray family’s group of relatives, creating chaos.

[Netizen A]: So Leslie Howard really did help the Gray family tremendously at that time. I read the representative’s summary, and the Gray family was indeed quite miserable back then.

[Netizen B]: So what Lily Redington said was all true... Could Leslie Howard really be so kind-hearted? Isn’t she the type to forget favors and only care about pay, regardless of quality?

There have long been rumors online that Leslie Howard accepts roles solely based on pay, whoever offers the highest price gets her.

Things like human connections, mentors’ guidance, or film quality, in her eyes, are not as important as money.

[Netizen C]: But Leslie Howard took the Gray family’s role and even lowered her pay... Looks like the entertainment circle has deep waters. I dare not make arbitrary stands anymore for fear of being slapped in the face.

Facts speak louder than words, especially events from a few years ago, now resurfaced with almost no possibility of fabrication.

Therefore, the comments section under several marketing accounts, verified accounts, quickly turned into a battlefield for netizens to verbally crucify.

No one wants to be fooled.

These people spread rumors with just a few words, leading the public blindly, sometimes even making people unwittingly choose sides and get slapped in the face.

[Baby Face V][Entertainment Prosecutor V] simply closed the comments section, afraid to come out and speak.

While [victoria.12 V][Crown Entertainment V] even canceled their accounts, seemingly ready to flee.

However—

In less than half a day, the situation had new developments.

Mr. Graham’s law firm directly approached them at residential areas and office buildings in A City and B City, handing over written legal letters in person.

And immediately sued the court.

All of this was filmed by accompanying personnel using cell phones, and put online.
