Maxwell watched them delete the photos and confirm before leaving. The two men put away the anger
on their faces and exchanged a smile with each other.
As paparazzi, they were always dealing with superstars wisely and boldly. How could they have no
backup plan?
One of them pulled out his phone hidden in the dark and browsed a few photos, confirming he had shot
Winnie’s side face when she entered the drugstore and bent over to take out something from the rack.
The photos were shot through the window glass. In the last picture, the things and her face were
blurred.
However, as long as her outfit matched, they could make the story and upload it.
Hence, in a few hours, the news about Winnie’s pregnancy caused an uproar online.
Its trend topic became popular instantly and soon became the top one.
The netizens kept discussing this matter.
“Have I missed anything? Why didn’t I see any news about her romance, but she had been pregnant?”
“Who is the baby’s father? Chassell Barrett?”
“Can’t you stop sickening us? Chassell Barrett is in jail now. Do you want to get in to keep him
company?”
“Honestly speaking, Chassell Barrett hasn’t been in jail for a long time, has he? If Winnie is pregnant,
that may be his baby.”
Hence, the netizens who thought Chassell was the baby’s father started fighting with Winnie’s fans.
They cursed each other fiercely.
Besides, some netizens doubted the report and said Winnie had probably just dropped by the
drugstore to buy some medicine instead of getting pregnant.
Due to this doubt, some nosy netizens searched for some packages of the pregnancy test kit to
compare the things in Winnie’s hands after enlarging the photos. The pictures matched, which meant
she was holding the pregnancy kits.
For a moment, there were several tags about this matter on the trends –
#Winniepregnant
#Whosthefather
#WinnieandChassell
#WinnieandChanning
When the last topic appeared on the trending, Channing’s fans retorted that Winnie and Channing only
cooperated in some works. To Channing, Winnie was just a senior in the entertainment business and
an elder sister in life without any other relationship.
They also respected and blessed Winnie for her pregnancy and warned others not to mention
Channing.
Of course, a lot of unreasonable fans started personally attacking Winnie.
Some of them said after Winnie had terminated her contract with Conrad Group, she went to hook up
with her previous sugar daddy and got pregnant accidentally.
However, this kind of rumor sounded fake and unreasonable.
Since Winnie started her career in the entertainment business, she contracted with Conrad Group.
Even during the two years after she had been slandered by Chassell, she had been protected well by
Conrad Group. Besides, she was in “Forbes” last night. She didn’t need to have any sugar daddy.
The discussions online became chaotic.
After finishing the last lesson, when Channing went out of the classroom, he heard his classmates
discussing something behind him. They looked at him in a nosy way as if they wanted to ask him
something but had no guts.
Channing sped up to leave the classroom. He turned on his phone in a corner without anyone else and
saw the trends.
Pressing his lips, he messaged Winnie.
Channing: It turned out getting pregnancy by kissing is true.
Winnie soon replied to him.
Winnie: …
Winnie: Didn’t you suspect I had another boyfriend beside you?
Channing: It sounds possible, but I don’t believe it.
Winnie read his reply on the other end of the line, smiling.
After this trend appeared, she thought about Channing right away, afraid that he would misunderstand.
However, she hadn’t had time to explain to him, he messaged her.
It felt terrific when he trusted her unconditionally.
Standing next to her, Sherry saw her couldn’t help smiling and nudged her. “The people were roasting
you online. What are you smiling at?”
Winnie put away her phone and coughed. “Well... I just saw a funny comment.”
Sherry asked in confusion, “What comment? Show me.”
Winnie pushed her awkwardly. “Ah... I’ve swiped it away. It’s not that funny, seriously.”
Sherry was wordless.
She wondered if Winnie had a mental disorder because of those curses.
Stella felt quite sorry. “I’d better post a declaration to explain this matter. We can’t let this go on.”
Winnie stopped her, “No, thanks. You can’t announce the pregnancy public in the first three months. Or
it’ll be harmful to the baby. Let it be. I don’t mind.”
Sherry looked weird. “Don’t you mind?”
Winnie nodded, sorting out her hair. “No, I don’t. Anyway, it’s not the first day that I’ve been cursed. I’ve
been used to it already. After the heat is gone, they’ll stop.”
Stella frowned, “No way. I...”
Winnie sat closer to her, taking her hand. “Listen to me, Stella. Leave this matter alone. In fact, no
people in our business are scared of being cursed. We’re afraid of not being cursed at all. Think about
it. They curse me, and I can win many fans and fame. After a few months, you can announce your
pregnancy to the public and explain it on my behalf. In that case, I’ll get more fans again.”
Stella knew Winnie was comforting her. With Winnie’s fame and status nowadays, she didn’t need
those anti-fans.
Sherry thought for a moment and agreed with Winnie. She echoed, “Stella, why don’t you listen to her?
I’ve also heard that you can’t announce the pregnancy before it has been three months. Otherwise, it’s
not good.”
Winnie nodded hard. “Yes. Please don’t worry, Stella. It has no impact on me. In fact, what others say
about me doesn’t matter at all. As long as the one I love hasn’t misunderstood it...”
When almost finishing her words, Winnie’s voice became lower and lower. She felt a bit shy.
Sherry raised her eyebrows, nudging Stella. What Winnie meant was evident.
Stella exhaled. She had been convinced by them.
She said, “I can’t bear them cursing you like this all the time. Please ask your studio to clarify that you
are not pregnant and it’s a misunderstanding. I’ll explain to the public in the future.”
Winnie nodded in agreement. “That works.”
She picked up her phone and messaged her assistant.
Hence, this issue had been resolved for the time being.
Sherry suddenly recalled something. Looking over at Stella, she asked, “By the way, you haven’t told
Clarence about this matter, have you?”
Stella said, “I’ve almost forgotten...”
As soon as they returned to the studio, they were overwhelmed by the news online.
She had no time to tell Clarence about it.
Winnie suggested, “Stella, why don’t you wait for him to go home and tell him in person? He must has
seen the online news. Then he’ll hear you tell him you are pregnant. I’m sure his expression would be
quite a fun to look at.”
