Chapter 170
It was no surprise that in the next two days, news about Lauren somehow got leaked by someone. Lauren was a top-tier celebrity, and with the usual level of influence she holds, the current wave she stirred up is just as huge.
Wilson quickly made the call for Lauren to take a break from everything. A massive blow for a star, but it seemed like the best move. Wilson did know what he was doing.
Meanwhile, while Wilson and Lauren got swarmed by the press, they made it crystal clear that this whole mess shouldn't affect any of Lauren's endorsement deals or ongoing film projects.
