"Bye” Katherine said before she hung up her phone.
Katherine set the alarm and settled in for the night.
After all, she had a lot of stuff to do tomorrow.
Katherine was right.
Queenie's live broadcast sparked a heated debate on the internet.
Queenie finally sold herself short to generate articles establishing her innocence.
It boomeranged to her disadvantage.
Soon after Queenie's live public apology ended, several articles were released, claiming that Queenie
was wrong.
However, it also implied that Katherine was overly calculated, forcing people to apologize on the
internet.
In addition, some reporters were unceasingly releasing reports about the divorce between Katherine
and Zack, for they get money out of it.
It quickly went viral, and trending topics generated more online engagement, which gave journalists
more profit.
They brought up the matter of Katherine divorcing Zack earlier to condition the minds of their audience
to the idea that Katherine was the kind of person that was overly calculated and that she was shallow
and petty for making a big deal out of small situations.
Of course, Alice, being a good friend to Katherine, wasn't able to control herself after seeing the live
broadcast, so she tweeted: [If you did something wrong, you did something wrong.If you admitted your
mistake, you admitted your mistake.But if you said sorry, others do not necessarily have to accept your
apology']
Queenie cried from all the bad things thrown her way by all these people that her eyes turned red.
If she wanted to point fingers, all she had to do was to look at herself in front of the mirror, and she
would instantly see who to blame.
Meanwhile, two reporters commented with their different opinions nonstop on national television about
whose side they were on.
Queenie's live broadcast, where she apologized, might have surpassed the previous interviews and
public apologies of celebrities in terms of the viewer count.
Katherine's name was naturally dragged and caught up on the trending topic mostly because she was
not popular like Queenie, so people started to become curious about her.
Of course, this matter was all Queenie's own doing.
In the beginning, some people, who did not know the truth, were swept to their feet.
Gradually, the voices of the bashers against Katherine lessened.
Even those who sympathized with Queenie before stood up to question her red eyes for such a short
period.
People were wondering if those were even real tears! Just as most people on the internet were arguing
whether it was Queenie or Katherine going overboard, an anonymous citizen started to post some
things on the internet.
The anonymous person's post was: [I knew Queenie and Ms.Wilson, but the three of us are not
friends.However, I've met the two of them during the birthday celebration of the well-respected
grandfather of the Johnston family, and Ms.Wilson was still Zack's wife.At that time, she was known
more as Mrs.Colburn.]
The anonymous person continued to post: [Mrs.Colburn was invited to attend the said birthday
celebration, which was held at the house of the Johnston family.]
Anonymous person: [She was regarded to be a gold digger at that time, and the Johnston family looked
down on her.It was only because of Zack that they allowed Mrs.Colburn to enter the family home.]
Anonymous person: [During the said birthday celebration, something happened that caused
Mrs.Colburn to leave the place and the birthday celebration.She had met a lot of people who thought
she was amazing, and then she was suddenly pushed into the swimming pool by Queenie and her
minions']
Netizens who were so invested in the divorce rumors and gossips about Katherine and Zack knew who
exactly this so-called Mrs.Colburn was.
Anonymous person: [To make Mrs.Colburn even more embarrassed, when she was looking for a place
to change to dry her clothes and herself, Queenie forced the servants to point the opposite way to
Mrs.Colburn, which led the poor woman to accidentally break into the lounge of the grandfather of the
Johnston family,]
Anonymous person: [She wasn't able to change her wet clothes because of that, and she just had
enough of everything that she left the party, leaving Zack behind.Only the ex Mrs.Colburn knew how
she was able to leave the family home that fateful night.]
Anonymous person: [I only said this now because I cannot keep quiet anymore about how bad of a
person Queenie is.I remembered this incident after Queenie's live broadcast a few days ago, where
she apologized to Ms.Wilson.Maybe there is some truth that Ms.Wilson was taking revenge for what
Queenie did to her before.However, I can say that I don't find anything wrong with that because if I
were in Katherine's shoes, I would probably do the same...]
The moment this anonymous person posted these, the internet went wild.
Initially, some people supported Queenie, but after the post of the anonymous person, almost and
practically everyone was on Katherine's side.
It all boiled down to whether this anonymous person was telling the truth, which meant Queenie was a
bad person in real life and that she was not worthy of an ounce of sympathy from anyone.
Or maybe, Katherine was this anonymous person who posted these things because she still had not
forgotten the trauma of how she had been treated in the past.
After all, hiding behind the secrecy of a keyboard was an easy way out to vent one's anger during this
time of technology.
Traumas like that were not easily forgotten.
Sometimes, avenging oneself was just an easy solution to feeling better, but Katherine was a bigger
person than that.
People preferred individuals like Katherine more than the kind of people who allowed others to violate
them indefinitely.
Most people's ideals were, "I wouldn't do bad things to them if they didn't do it first.If people offended
me, I would be like a criminal, and I would get back at them for what they did to me!"
Of course, when people started investigating and delving their heads into issues where it didn't concern
them, people soon found out that the posts of the anonymous person were true.
The point of the matter was, Queenie did something terrible three years ago, so her apologies didn't
make sense.
What happened was something not worthy of apologizing on live broadcast anymore.
