Chapter 763 Stormy Night
"This is the stench of capitalists! To do such a thing to a depressed patient is too much!" someone commented.
After Dark night made the publication, Melissa was pushed to the hot search again.
Looking at the comments on the internet, Melissa frowned.
People nowadays are always being led astray by just a few words. She didn't know how to explain herself to such a crowd for a while.
She took a deep breath, turned off her phone, and tried not to think about it.
Then, she fell asleep. There were too many things going on these days that made her unable to function properly.
Perhaps because of the miscarriage, her body was becoming less and less like before. Usually, she would work for a very long time before she felt the least tired.
Due to this, Melissa made sure she thought less about what had been happening. The negativity was too much, and had started to swallow her whole.
The next morning, after Melissa got up, she drove to work.
As soon as she stepped out of her car, she was surrounded by the media.
"It's Ms. Melissa!" someone shouted, and a group of people swarmed around her, holding cameras and microphones.
Melissa frowned, how did they enter the company? Who let them in? She wondered.
"Ms. Melissa, what do you think about the issue of people suffering from depression?” A reporter asked at once, much to
Melissa's dissatisfaction.
"No idea,"she abruptly replied. She was anxious for a while, as she shook her head in a bid to restrain her emotions.
"Does this mean that you admit to the allegations about you concerning Dark night?” Another reporter asked.
Several media experts took the cue and took pictures of Melissa's dissatisfied expressions.
"Netizens say that you did this for your own interests. Did you really cover up Alice just because of your longstanding platonic relationship?" The reporters asked away.
Melissa shook her head, feeling annoyed at the reporter's unreasonable remarks.
"You can believe whatever nonsense you like, but you can't talk nonsense to me," Melissa replied. Her feisty response, made the media silent for a while.
"In that case, do you admit to Dark night's allegation?" The media asked, and Melissa shook her head.
"I didn't say anything like that," Melissa replied.
Just when the reporters were about to ask more questions, the security guards from Star Entertainment arrived.
"Please leave and stop bothering Ms.Melissa here.” the security guards said.
They began to disperse the reporters, but the reporters were very unwilling and took pictures of the vicious eyes of the security guards of Star Entertainment.
These relentless reporters posted the videos and photos of Melissa on twitter, and her image collapsed again.
"The Gibson family hostess Melissa was hit by a depressed patient” That was the headline following the media's visit to Melissa at Star Entertainment. The matter was immediately toppled up, and for a while, Star Entertainment's stock plummeted.
In order to stabilize the situation, Melissa had to hurriedly hold a press conference to clarify the matter, otherwise, if it continued, not only would Star Entertainment suffer, but even the Gibson Corporation Group would lose its share price.
After all, it was not a trivial matter for a person to suffer from depression due to cyber riots.
Journalists rushed to Star Entertainment to get first-hand information.
The reporters were talking about it, wondering how Melissa would clarify this matter.
Soon, Melissa brought several employees to the press conference, still holding Alice's work.
"This is the work that Alice gave me yesterday. It's what you guys have been discussing since the beginning,” Melissa started to address the press.
She put the work in front of everyone, and everyone nodded. If it wasn't for plagiarism, this was really a perfect work.
"I didn't harass the Dark night as it is claimed.. I was just expounding the facts and discussing matters. Please don't misunderstand what I mean," Melissa said. Her comment attracted many questions from reporters.
"According to Dark Night, the artist made this painting at a time of depression, and never looked at his or her mobile phone during this period. The works are so consistent. Is it because of this consistency
that Ms. Melissa concluded that it was plagiarized?" A reporter asked.
As soon as these words came out of the reporter's mouth, Melissa frowned.
"Did she say she didn't look at her phone because she really didn't? Did she really say she didn't plagiarize? If one person can play such a big role, what should the police do?" Melissa asked. Vulnerable groups will always be favored, which is understandable, but this has touched moral and legal issues, and Melissa could not back down.
"The state clearly stipulates that no plagiarism / misappropriation of other people's works is allowed. Not only are the elements of the two people's works the same in many places, but from the chronological point of view, it can be seen who plagiarized whom?" Melissa added.
She frowned. She had nothing more to say to these reporters.
"But Dark night suffers from depression.. You could solve this problem by yourself, so why did you post it on the internet? Doesn't this make you even more desperate?” A reporter said.
The reporters directly ignored Dark night's crime and envisaged the fact of depression being the cause of the painting coming to being.
"Well, who first scolded Alice on twitter? If it wasn't for that person, I wouldn't have to find out about Dark night, right?" Melissa asked.
Melissa replied to all their questions and speculations, but the reporters were not satisfied.
"In that case, you should have a good talk with Dark night. What if Dark night can't bear it in her heart and commits suicide? This is a bloody life, you know," the media replied Melissa. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
The reporter's remarks directly put Dark night's life in Melissa's hands.
After the press conference, not only did Melissa and Star Entertainment not get out of the predicament, but they sank deeper in the abyss.
Because of the reporter's words, netizens became more impassioned and went directly to Star Entertainment's official blog and Melissa's twitter account to start abusing her and her company..
For a while, there was ongoing news about the Melissa internet riot on the hot search, and at this moment, Dark night jumped out to speak again.
"I didn't expect Ms. Melissa to have such a big opinion on me. Under such circumstances, I would have to suffer another cyberbullying. If I die, there will be so many things to talk about, and so many people to hold accountable..." Dark night said.
He revealed that he was by the river, ready to commit suicide by jumping into the river, and it attracted the attention of many netizens for a while.
This is a human life, and if Dark night dies like this, Melissa and
Star Entertainment would be held accountable and only be more difficult to deal with.
Netizens didn't consider anything other than what would happen to Dark night.. They went to Dark night's twitter page and persuaded Dark night not to commit suicide.
Dark night, there are many good things in life, committing suicide because of such a callous person like Melissa id not worth it,” A netizen said.
"Yeah! You must get well soon. You can't let the bad guys win and stand above the law!" another netizen commented.
Because of the issue of Dark night committing suicide,, the internet police had already participated and begun to persuade volunteers to go to Dark night's home.
Everyone pushed public opinion to a climax, and were accusing Melissa of losing morality and threatening a life for her own interests.
