Chapter 503 Possibility of Backlash
Eliza didn't answer the director's question but looked at Gabriel's agent with a smile.
Gabriel's agent was also surnamed Jiang. He seemed to be a distant relative of Gabriel. His name was Gene.
Gene's figure was thin, and his facial features were very ordinary. The surrounding of his eyes seemed to be dark all year round. He seemed to be in poor spirits.
She didn't know if it was because he was too fond of pleasure that he looked very weak. He looked like he could be killed with a single punch from Eliza.
"Mr. Gene is also here. That's great. It saved me a lot of trouble."
Eliza was still smiling, but there was no smile in her eyes. She looked at Gene with an unusually cold expression.
Those who were familiar with Eliza, such as Roseane, all knew that she was angry now.
The moment Gene saw Eliza, the expression on his face distorted for a moment.
He had already learned what had happened last night from Gabriel. Of course, he didn't like the culprit who had caused Gabriel to suffer such a great loss. He even thought of a few ways to deal with Eliza.
Gabriel's good reputation in the show's crew had been ruined by Eliza. He felt too ashamed to see her, but she was still so calm. How could he feel comfortable?
"Why are you looking for me?" Gene's tone was high and mighty.
Roseane frowned when she heard this. She wanted to say something but was stopped by Eliza.
"I'm not looking for you. I'm looking for Mr. James. Yesterday's slander has hurt me a lot. Not only did it affect my reputation, but it also greatly hurt my young mind."
Gene: "..."
"When will Mr. James be willing to come forward and apologize to me? And make up for the series of injuries and losses I have suffered?"
Gene looked ferocious and said fiercely, "Don't talk nonsense! Why should Gabriel apologize to you?"
"You don't want to apologize?" Eliza lowered her eyes. "There were so many people who saw it with their own eyes yesterday. Mr. James slashed himself like crazy and even tried to slander me! He slandered me for using force on him. Many people saw how he fled after being exposed!"
After Eliza finished speaking, she even winked at the director.
"Director, you should have reserved those shots yesterday, right?"
After the director was stunned for a while, he immediately reacted.
He also chimed in, "That's right. I kept all the videos. At that time, many people saw it. I also saw it with my own eyes."
Eliza nodded with satisfaction and said, "I heard from the staff just now that the gate of the manor seemed to be surrounded by Mr. James's fans. It seems that there is some misunderstanding about the program group. Director, what's going on?"
The director wasn't a stubborn person. He immediately explained the whole thing and even explained that the agent wanted to take Gabriel to the hospital for an examination.
The director looked embarrassed. "It's not that we don't want Mr. James to go out, but the fans are angry now. If Mr. James appears with injuries, those irrational fans may do something."
"We are also thinking about everyone's safety. I hope that Mr. James can understand."
The director didn't want things to get out of hand.
The show had run out of chances. He just hoped that he could get through the storm and then steadily go online to earn ratings.
Even if it was for the sake of his hair that was getting lesser and lesser.
But Gabriel was destined not to let him get what he wanted.
Gene sneered. "Mr. James recorded other programs smoothly. Why was only he injured when he filmed here? He just wants to check his body and appease his fans. Is that too much to ask for? Why do you need Mr. James's understanding?"
The director: "This..."
Eliza, "I also want to know, how long has it been since Mr. James started his career? Is he really such a perfect person in the eyes of fans and the public?"
Eliza's sudden appearance caused Gene to frown.
"What do you mean?"
"What I mean is... how old is Gabriel this year? He's already twenty-four years old, and he's an adult. Is there really no bad thing that he hasn't done? It's not necessarily impossible for him to suffer from the backlash of a person's personality or something."
Gene's expression was ugly. He could hear the implication behind Eliza's words.
Gabriel's role in the public was indeed perfect. Everyone thought that he had a good character, so Gene wasn't afraid of Eliza's threat just now. He felt that no one would believe that Eliza said that Gabriel had directed himself to slander her.
Even if there was a video as evidence, Gabriel could still say that it was too dark for him to see who had slashed him.
Anyway, Gabriel was injured. He was the victim!
The show's crew not only didn't look for those who hurt Gabriel, but also helped Eliza deal with Gabriel. They would definitely be criticized by others. At that time, Eliza and the show's crew wouldn't be able to have a good time either.
However, Eliza had pointed out what had happened before Gabriel's debut.
Gabriel's life had been smooth sailing for so long, and his temper had become like this in such a short period of time. His temper must have been bad since he was a child, so he became even worse after entering the entertainment industry.
Although the company had spent a great deal of effort to suppress Gabriel's previous experiences during his debut.
But if someone wanted to investigate, they could find some clues.
As long as Eliza made all the bad things that Gabriel had done known to the public, and then accused Gabriel of his self-directed acts to make his fans distressed and bring benefits to himself, then Gabriel's reputation would be completely ruined!
Once Gabriel's public persona collapsed, then those victims who had received money in the past might no longer be so calm! Once those things were exposed, Gabriel's future would truly be ruined!
After thinking about all this, Gene was so angry that his chest rose and fell.
He didn't expect that a low-class woman like Eliza would be so scheming and shrewd.
It was a good thing that Gabriel hadn't come this time. Otherwise, he'd've done something out of impulse!
In the face of Gene's sinister gaze, Eliza was not afraid at all and even smiled at him.
"Mr. Gene, I think it's better for Mr. James to come and apologize to me in person. By the way, he'll also have to send a Weibo message to clarify it and evacuate the fans at the door. This is good for everyone."
"What do you think?"
What else could Gene think? Was his suggestions even useful?
Gene squeezed out a stiff smile and said sinisterly, "I came to see the director and it has nothing to do with Mr. James. I will consider your words. Mr. James doesn't want to make trouble for you, and he still feels very uncomfortable now."
Gene was no fool to be Gabriel's assistant.
He purposely said this in front of the director in order to take all the blame on himself so that he could leave a good impression on Gabriel.
The director echoed, "Is he still not feeling well? Then I'll ask the doctor to check on him again."
Gene did not refuse this time. He snorted and left.
After he left, the director breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and looked at Eliza gratefully.
"Eliza, it was all thanks to you just now."
