Mommy，We Got a Husband
Chapter 300 Another Wave of Cyberbullying in Ignorance

The article revealed an in-depth and lengthy analysis. Starting from the point that Cormac and Alaric were good friends, it dissected how Rowena got the promotion ambassador role through connections and then used Richard as a cover. After successfully becoming the promotion ambassador, Rowena "coincidentally" met Cormac at an entertainment center on the day she returned to the country, and they had several private meetings afterward.

She even secretly sought Alaric's help to assist Cormac in climbing the ranks. After Cormac succeeded, Rowena broke up with Richard. Despite his pleas and begging, Rowena remained firm in her resolve and stood by her choice. The article also included several photos: one taken by a fan at the entertainment center when Rowena and Cormac reunited and another of them chatting alone outside the filming base that day.

If the other male protagonist involved were someone else, public opinion might be divided, but it happened to be Cormac.

Recently, the Nash Family's bankruptcy caused a huge stir, and everyone looked down on Cormac. Subconsciously, they already thought Cormac was not a good person, so the public overwhelmingly believed Richard's words. [Is Cormac still alive? After the Nash Family's incident, I thought he had quietly committed suicide.]

[If this is true, then Rowena is really trash. She doesn't love Richard but rekindles with that rotten Cormac. Rowena, are you out of your mind? How can you do this to Richard? Is there no prick of guilt?]

[Rowena, have you forgotten your dark past? Who caused you to have depression and almost commit suicide back then? Now that you've finally made it, with a bright future ahead, what are you doing? I'm unfollowing you!] [Poor Richard. We can't just listen to one side of the story. Richard clearly gave Rowena a chance to come back, but Rowena insisted on going her own way. Rowena, you're done. Artists like you don't deserve to remain in public view!] [If this is real, then congratulations to Rowena and Cormac on being a perfect pair of oddballs, and may they be cursed with each other's company for life. Since your first love has successfully returned, Rowena, just quit the industry and stop being an eyesore.]

Initially, this was just a simple case of Richard cheating. However, unexpectedly, Richard turned the tables, completely changing the direction of public opinion. "This Richard is so despicable, cheating and then causing you trouble!" Rowena's agent was also furious, clutching his chest in anger. They never expected Richard to be so shameless.

Due to the severe impact on public opinion, Rowena's team was urgently trying to come up with a response and issued a statement immediately.

A strong declaration was made by Rowena's team, vehemently stating that Richard's accusations were false, and there had been no secret meetings between Rowena and Cormac behind his back.

The agent suggested, "The clarification statement has been issued, but looking at the netizens' reactions, they don't believe it. They're all calling us liars. Rowena, you can't stay silent anymore. You need to issue a statement, distancing yourself from Cormac. Just say that the previous meetings were all initiated by Cormac, and you have no intention of rekindling anything with him. Issue it first and see if it can salvage some public opinion."

Hearing that she had to issue such a statement, Rowena found it extremely ridiculous.

Rowena replied, "Cormac and I are innocent. This is all because Richard cheated, and it's already been proven. Why do I have to keep emphasizing my side? Why should I push it onto Cormac? Richard is throwing dirt on me, and if I throw dirt on Cormac, how am I any different from Richard?"

"Rowena, I know you're angry right now, and we're angry too," the agent quickly advised. "This is just a PR tactic. Otherwise, those netizens won't believe it. They only believe what they want to believe. Yesterday, Richard's cheating was exposed, and he was being scolded by the entire internet. Now there's a reversal, saying you cheated first, and he repeatedly tried to save the relationship but failed, leading him to drink late at night. Public opinion has shifted instantly." The agent went on, "You're in a passive position now. Your business deals have already been affected. A brand endorsement we just negotiated was supposed to be signed today, but the brand said they need to reconsider. And that's not all. If this PR fails, netizens will believe you cheated first. Do you know the consequences?"

"Fortunately, Richard only has a few photos, which can be easily handled. Besides, Cormac isn't in the industry, so the public opinion won't affect his career. However, it's different for you. A simple statement that you and Cormac are innocent won't convince the netizens," the agent added.

"Sorry, I can't do that," Rowena said.

From the beginning, Cormac was innocent. This issue was between Rowena and Richard. She didn't expect it to involve Cormac again.

Due to the Nash Family's downfall and his father Griffon, Cormac had already endured too much undeserved criticism and malice. Rowena couldn't bear to drag Cormac into this again.

Seeing that Rowena wouldn't budge, the agent got a bit angry and said, "Rowena, is this about your conscience, or do you still have feelings for Cormac? Do you really want to rekindle the relationship with him? If you do, let me tell you upfront. The current public opinion is against you, and the previous Nash Family incident has left Cormac with a bad reputation. Even if you're single now, getting back with Cormac will ruin your image completely."

The agent continued, "Not to mention the suspicion of multiple secret meetings and putting a green hat on Richard. If you end up with Cormac, even if Richard's claims aren't true, they will be perceived as true. As I said, this won't affect Cormac, but it will be devastating for you. Rowena, from a street singer to writing songs for artists behind the scenes, to being in the spotlight, you know best how many years it took and what you went through. We're all looking out for you. Do you want to listen to us or not? Think it over!"

After saying this, the agent stormed out, leaving Rowena alone in the room. She didn't want to look at those comments anymore. It felt like she was back ten years ago when she was being scolded by the entire internet for being a slut and seducing a rich heir.

Unlike in the past, Rowena had become stronger and more resilient. However, she was deeply uneasy about dragging Cormac into this and subjecting him to online abuse.

Overnight, public opinion shifted, and Cormac went from being an outsider to a target of online abuse. Seeing these comments, Cormac couldn't remain indifferent. However, since he gave up on suicide, his mental resilience had become very strong.

Cormac was only worried that Rowena, facing online abuse, might have her depression triggered again. But given the sensitivity of their relationship, he couldn't contact Rowena and could only keep his distance.
