Chapter 486 Ernest's Arrest
Jenny's mind was suddenly stirred.
Originally, she hadn't thought of this at all.
The moment she got the camera, she just wanted to gossip with Ann.
She sighed, not expecting that Ernest, who seemed so decent, sunny, and handsome in the entertainment industry, was actually like this behind the scenes.
But Ann's words made her see the light.
That's right!
As long as she posted this, without needing to do anything else, she could ruin Emma's reputation!
"Okay, I got it."
Jenny didn't dare waste a single moment and wanted to see the result as soon as possible.
She immediately left Ann's room.
Ann watched her back, a slow, gentle smile curling on her lips.
Half an hour later.
A video compilation was posted.
Many things that couldn't be shown were heavily pixelated by Jenny.
At first, everyone thought it was a prank video.
But soon, it spread everywhere.
[Shocking! Go watch the Ernest compilation, it's disgusting!]
[Is this Ernest?]
[Is this real? This must be photoshopped, right? Isn't there that AI face-swapping technology now?]
[Professional here, this isn't photoshopped.]
[This resolution doesn't look like a hotel hidden camera, and the angle is always the same. Could it be Ernest filming himself?]
[How could Ernest be this kind of person?]
[Did anyone count? There are about a dozen women in this!]
The lecture ended at 11:30 PM.
Lionel walked out with a few dorm mates.
A dark-skinned boy's arm fell on his shoulder, complaining, "Oh my God, the dorm lights out at 10:30, and this lecture went until 11:30? I'm exhausted, my brain turned to mush by the end, couldn't take in anything."
"That professor is very famous, many schools pay a lot to invite him. It's great he was willing to come to us, right, Lionel?"
Lionel nodded.
"Yeah, it was really beneficial."
The dark-skinned boy pouted, "Alright, alright, whatever you say. Oh no, my stomach hurts again, wait here, I need to hit the restroom."
"Just go back to the dorm!"
The remaining three stood by, bored, looking at their phones.
Lionel opened his backpack, intending to take out the camera, but found...
"The camera is missing?!"
"Huh? Lionel, what's wrong?"
Lionel shook his head, his voice tinged with panic, "I think I left something inside, I'll go look for it, you guys go ahead."
Lionel hurried back to the classroom, went to his seat, but found the desk empty.
He wasn't someone who lost things easily.
Nor was he careless.
Lionel was afraid of losing the camera, so he put it in his bag and never took it out.
How could it just disappear?
Could someone have taken it?
He had lost some things before, but they were all small, inexpensive items, so he didn't care much.
But this camera wasn't his, and it involved Ernest.
Lionel's only consolation was that he had already deleted the video of Emma.
If someone saw it, who knows what would happen...
Lionel walked out of the classroom, feeling down.
He found his dorm mates waiting for him.
"Lionel, it seems like Emma..." The dark-skinned boy knew Lionel liked Emma, and he had just checked Facebook in the restroom, finding the situation blown up.
"What happened to her?" Lionel asked anxiously.
The dark-skinned boy quickly said, "Don't worry, it's not a big deal. It's just that Ernest's video got leaked, and since Ernest just announced he's with Emma, everyone is speculating if Emma also had a relationship with Ernest."
"That's impossible! It's all fake!" Lionel roared.
The three dorm mates were startled.
It was the first time they saw Lionel so angry.
"Yes, yes, it must be fake!" they echoed.
"How about we talk back at the dorm?"
The first thing Lionel did back at the dorm was check the comments.
[I remember, Ernest publicly acknowledged only three girlfriends, including Emma.]
[I'm really impressed, aren't celebrities supposed to be very busy? I see what kind of busy now.]
[No wonder Ernest always said he was tired during live streams, with different women every day, how could he not be?]
[Isn't he afraid of getting sick?]
[This isn't the first time Ernest has done this.]
[Please share your story.]
[Check my profile, I posted about it last year.]
It turned out, this girl had been harassed by Ernest.
She was a fan of Ernest and managed to add him as a friend by chance.
She was thrilled but didn't dare disturb him, only occasionally sending caring messages.
Until one time, she posted a photo collage.
Ernest immediately replied.
The girl was overjoyed, and they started chatting.
Ernest even visited her city for work and had two meals with her.
But later, their chats took a turn.
Ernest started saying very explicit things.
The girl felt increasingly uncomfortable, suspecting Ernest's account was hacked.
Why else would he be so decent in person but so sleazy behind a screen?
Finally, the girl couldn't take it and posted their chat screenshots online.
But it didn't cause much of a stir.
The hundred comments were mostly insults.
[Wow, with such imagination, why not write a novel?]
[He likes you? With so many famous actresses around him, why would he notice you? Hilarious!]
[Honestly, I could create hundreds of such chat records in minutes.]
[Just get a friend to change their profile picture and name, then chat with you.]
[Women nowadays are scary, thinking a bit of looks can get them fame?]
Now, looking at those comments, they didn't know what to say.
Even though Ernest's agent Jimmy was doing PR, deleting comments and hiring trolls, the situation was escalating.
It was out of control.
"This is a total disaster!"
Jimmy had a splitting headache.
Originally, they planned to announce Ernest and Emma's relationship, so the Curtis family wouldn't dare touch Ernest for a while.
But now, with Ernest's scandal exposed, he would soon be universally condemned.
