“Top Comment 1: [Everyone, and see the mistress @Queen Natalie.]
Top Comment 2: [Spreading rumors without evidence? Do you think the internet is a lawless place? Waiting for Nat to clarify and shut them down!]”
Top Comment 3: [I trust Nat. She would never be a mistress!]
Top Comment 4: [Natalie is such a fake. She acts like she’s not interested in Mr. Luther on the show, but behind the scenes, she’s shamelessly trying to be his mistress!]
The number of comments, already at 200,000, was still growing Natalie only read a few of the top comments before she lost interest. The comments were basically divided into three categories: those who believed her and defended her, those who didn’t believe her and attacked her, and the bystanders who just wanted to watch the drama unfold.
She slumped lazily in her chair and raised her hand. Immediately, a maid came forward to give her a massage. Arthur sat down next to her and asked, “How do you handle this?”
“Let me think about it,” Natalie said, narrowing her eyes and tapping her leg rhythmically. After a moment, she suddenly clicked her tongue in annoyance. Arthur raised an eyebrow, his gaze falling on her slightly impatient face, guessing that someone was about to be in trouble.
Sure enough, the next second, Natalie spoke with a mocking tone, “Arthur, don’t you think some people are just asking for it? If I don’t go out of my way to mess with them, they should be counting their blessings. But no, they have to come after me, even trying to ride on my neck and bully me. Do I look like someone who’s easy to push around?”
‘Good–tempered? No. That word has nothing to do with her. As the only daughter of the Xavier family, she is spoiled by everyone. She’s arrogant, willful, overweening, and wild, never willing to take a single loss. She’s known for her vengeful nature. How could she possibly tolerate such humiliation now?‘ Arthur thought.
Arthur pushed up his glasses, revealing his deep and calm eyes behind the lenses. “Then let’s set some ground rules for them.”
“Good idea,” Natalie said calmly. “Have you found the person who posted this on Twitter?”
“Yes, we’ve found them, and someone is already on their way to pick her up.”
Natalie frowned. “What do you mean ‘pick her up‘? That’s called inviting. Arthur, we are law–abiding citizens.”
Arthur didn’t comment further. “The person we’re inviting is a die–hard fan of the Vivian&Darren. Ever since they broke up, she’s been posting extreme comments online. During the time you and Darren were working together, she frequently cursed and insulted you on Twitter. This recent action might be out of personal spite, but it seems more likely that someone is pulling the strings.”
“Keep investigating,” Natalie said.
“What about the video?” Arthur said.
“Talk to Jeremy,” Natalie said, noticing it was already 8:30 PM and feeling a bit tired. “He and Darren have a similar build and height. Just tell him what to do; he’ll know how to handle it.”
Almost as soon as the words left her mouth, her phone rang. The maid handed it to her and whispered, “It’s Mr. Herman calling.”
Natalie chuckled. “Well, that’s quite timely.”
She pressed the answer button, and Jeremy’s respectful voice came through. “Ms. Xavier, I’m here to help you with your

troubles.”
Natalie, as if she already knew what he was going to say, asked directly, “Is everything ready?”

Jeremy was used to her sharpness and quickly replied, “Yes. As soon as I saw the Twitter trends today, I started working on it. I found a model to help me record the video during the day. I’m just checking with you now–should I go ahead and post it?”
“Go ahead and post it. Thanks a lot.”
“Of course not,” Jeremy said, his tone even more polite. “It’s an honor to be of service to you, Ms. Xavier.”
“Mm,” Natalie replied coolly. “Go ahead and do it.”
Jeremy nodded, even though she couldn’t see him. “I’ll make sure it meets your satisfaction.”
Two minutes later, Smooth Skin’s official account posted a video. In the video, a man in a custom–made Armani suit was taking a selfie at the amusement park. He removed his mask, revealing a handsome face–Jeremy. Not far behind him, a woman wearing a mask was sitting sideways on a bench. Although her face wasn’t visible, anyone could tell from her figure and attire that it was Natalie.
Smooth Skin’s Official Account: [What do you mean, Mr. Luther? It’s clearly Mr. Herman who is on a date with Ms. Xavier!]
As soon as this video was posted, it caused a stir on the Twitter trends. Netizens flocked to the scene, eager to see what was happening. They carefully compared the leaked video with the official video released by Smooth Skin. And they found- both videos were taken at the Mask Amusement Park. The same outfits, the same height difference, and the same masks. Even the man’s chiseled jawline, visible below the mask, was identical in both videos!
[Clearly, it’s Mr. Herman! Those who say it looks like Mr. Luther must be blind.]
[Ah! Mr. Herman is on a date with Nat? Long live the Natalie & Jeremy ship! I’m back in the game!]
[I thought this was a BE (bad ending) couple, and now they’re coming at me with this? Lock Natalie & Jeremy down for good!]
[I knew Nat would never be a mistress! Finally, some clarification. Why am I getting emotional all of a sudden?]
[Anyone who spreads rumors about Nat won’t get away with it! Mr. Herman, sue them until they’re broke!]
The tide of public opinion shifted dramatically after the video was posted. Seizing the moment, Jeremy also shared the video on his personal Twitter account, along with a caption.
Jeremy’s Tweet: [Yes, I am pursuing Ms. Xavier, and I’m very happy to be dating her. I didn’t expect that this video, taken over a month ago, would be used to create such a stir. I sincerely apologize to Ms. Xavier for any inconvenience caused and will take legal action against those who spread these false rumors.]
Jeremy’s video, with its seamless details, was almost indistinguishable from the real thing. Combined with his earnest and firm statement, no one doubted the authenticity of his words. Within less than an hour, the Twitter trends topic had changed to [Natalie & Jeremy].
The top comments also took on a new tone.
Top Comment 1: [Pick me up, I can ship Natalie & Jeremy forever and ever!]
Top Comment 2: [Mr. Herman is so protective of his wife, it really makes me feel so secure!]
Top Comment 3: [Vivian’s fans, stop making a fuss. Nat never liked Mr. Luther in the first place! Stop trying to stir up drama!]

By 10 PM, the online situatiqn had largely stabilized. The trending topic [Natalie being the third party in the Vivian&Darren] had cooled down significantly. Arthur was relatively satisfied with this, but not everyone felt the same.
In a WhatsApp group called “Nat’s Strong Supporter,” the conversation was heating up.

Nat’s Boss Uncle said: [What kind of status and background does our Nat have? Does she need to be a mistress? And for that Luther kid? She wouldn’t even deign to be his official wife, let alone a mistress. Pfft!]
Nat’s Mellow Uncle said: [Calm down. Netizens say all sorts of things. They even claim that Nat has no connection to the Xavier Group!]
Nat’s Idolized Bro said: [They say Nat comes from the mountains and her dad is a miner. I’m laughing so hard. I think the group should just come out and acknowledge Nat’s identity to stop these wild speculations.]
Nat’s Papa Bear said: [No way. We can’t easily reveal Nat’s identity. Have you forgotten what happened five years ago?]
