"Hand it over," Penny Lane walked toward her.
lody Thorne took a step back, looking sowhat troubled at Ivy, her hand tightly gripping the photograph.
Around them, there was a murmur of whispers,
"lody Thorne and Ivy are truly best friends, still covering for each other in front of the horoom teacher."
"Aren’t they? True friendship till the end."
"That’s not it. Ivy is cunning. She’s been playing lody Thorne for a fool."
"lody Thorne must have lost her mind, being tricked so many tis yet still defending her. World’s best friend indeed."
The crowd around them exchanged comnts,
The more Ivy listened, the darker her expression grew. Although she clung to lody Thorne when she was at the Quinn Family’s, at school, she tried her best to stay far away, often working against her behind her back, making a joke of her. Where was the best friend in that?
Could lody Thorne really call herself Ivy’s best friend?
"lody Thorne, hand it over," Penny Lane angrily grabbed one of lody Thorne’s hands and snatched the photograph, then glanced at it.
Imdiately, her face turned from green to white, then white to black...
At this mont, Director Irving also approached. The won who were always with Ivy kept signaling her to stop Director Irving, but Ivy didn’t understand their intention and followed along.
"Everybody stop looking, stop looking," lody Thorne waved her hands, pretending to snatch back the photograph.
But Director Irving’s eyes had already fallen on it, revealing nearly naked, scandalously posed individuals on the photograph...
"Ah," Ivy scread, quickly grabbing the photograph and hiding it behind her back. "No... no, it’s not mine! Soone deliberately photoshopped my photo to humiliate ."
People would believe her once or twice, but now they were wholly convinced otherwise.
Even Director Irving had a darkened expression; his female lead was supposed to be the classic innocent and pure girl, yet Ivy kept being involved in scandals like this.
"It’s you! It has to be you," Ivy pointed in lody Thorne’s direction. "You’re the one who brought the photograph; you must be trying to make lose face and get eliminated on purpose!"
"I didn’t," lody Thorne replied innocently.
"lody Thorne, why did those people kidnap you last night?" Jean Gage interjected.
"They... they..." lody Thorne stamred, her eyes misty, speaking softly, "because I discovered they were mass-producing Ivy’s scandalous photos, and I tried to retrieve them, but they kidnapped . They almost hurt , but luckily, Keith Lawson and the others saved ."
As she spoke, she removed the scarf from her neck, revealing a long scar.
Ivy nearly spat out blood, walking over and grabbing lody Thorne by the collar, "Say it again, they kidnapped you to take your nude photos, what does that have to do with my photos!"
lody Thorne looked up, clear eyes gradually focused like a falling star filled with grudging revenge, "Because they wanted your photos, planning to sell them at a high price. I was trying to help you."
When Ivy t her gaze, especially seeing that hateful coldness within, she felt a tightness in her chest, as if being challenged. She gripped lody Thorne’s collar even tighter, "You’re lying! You did it on purpose!"
"Look, a true best friend indeed, first to accuse others when she’s in trouble."
"Shh, keep your voice down, The Adler Family has shares in Director Irving’s new show, we can’t afford to offend them."
"Toxic friend, truly shaless."
