support but pointedly left out Reece. support
If she was going to cut ties, she intended to do it completely. Just like last time, she responded to Erika but ignored Jamar
Reece waited for hours, noticing that Phoebe had thanked everyone but him. It would be a lie to say he wasn’t disappointed, though he wasn’t surprised either.
Phoebe’s personality was just like his sister’s. She was clear–cut in what she loved and hated. Reece was willing to wait, however long it took.
Maddox’s and the others‘ support for Phoebe didn’t stop Jenkins Entertainment’s planted comments from pouring in

Naturally, the fans of Maddox and the others were not about to back down. They quickly fired back.
By evening, another narrative began taking shape online, accusing Phoebe of trying to whitewash Gwen using horoscopes and fortune–telling.
People thought Phoebe could say anything in favor of Gwen. In their opinion, Gwen was a confirmed homewrecker, and they refused to accept any attempts at damage control.
At that time, Phoebe was meeting

Wendy, Brenda’s roommate.
They’d met briefly before and had left a good first impression on each other, so Phoebe had hired Wendy as her assistant.

Phoebe discussed the work schedule with Wendy when Brian entered.
He said. “Ms. Jenkins, the online direction is shifting just as you predicted. Should we fan the flames a little? Or do a bit of cleanup?”
Brian’s eyes gleamed with excitement. His admiration for Phoebe had reached new heights. She had accurately predicted Leon’s every move.
Phoebe pondered before saying. “No need to interfere. Let Leon’s team carry on for a few more days. Viewers might feel some hostility toward us. But if they see these negative comments every day, they’ll get fed up”

She added, “Gwen has been harmed by the offenders and also been relentlessly attacked by their fans for so long. Gwen will gain more sympathy. and people’s dislike for those who betrayed her will hit new heights”
She narrowed her eyes “I like one clean strike. Let them taste the bitter consequences of their actions and make sure they can’t recover.
“Interfering now might just tip Leon off. Let him keep digging his own hole. Once he falls into the trap, he won’t be able to get back up”
Brian realized he’d been too eager to win, having lost his usual patience. His respect for Phoebe only grew. They didn’t make any mo
By the next day, online sentiment had worsened
Trolls and paid commenters had swarmed in, calling Phoebe a “fraud” and accusing her of a publicity stunt. They mocked her as a cheap horoscope reader trying to redeem Gwen through fortune–telling

Soon, the conversation grew off–topic.
Many realized the commenters were respected figures, renowned in horoscope and fortune–telling. A few of them were even more famous.
A few celebrities and business magnates who’d consulted these experts couldn’t help but admire Phoebe’s charm and wondered if they could book a session with her too.
As these expert followers continued to stand by Phoebe and Gwen, public doubt began to stir about Gwen’s alleged affair, leading people to wonder if there might be more to the story.
Noticing the shift, Jenkins Entertainment’s team tried to control the narrative.
They suggested the experts were only supporting Phoebe out of fan loyalty or even implying they’d been paid off. Some even accused them of being frauds themselves.
The claims infuriated the horoscope experts. They were not frauds, but people believed Jenkins Entertainment’s slander.
So, they decided to stop arguing. They left it at that, telling everyone to just wait and see how things played out.

Soon, Gwen headed to film a live reality show, with Wendy assisting her on set.
Phoebe and Brenda tuned in from their office, while Leon watched from another location.
This show used to be pre–recorded, but for the last two seasons, it switched to a live broadcast. The pre–recorded episodes were two hours long with additional bonus clips released separately.
With the live format, there were no extras. The broadcast ran from 10 am to 8 pm, with a two–hour break for the guests.
As soon as Gwen appeared, the comments turned negative, overwhelming the chat with harsh criticisms and completely altering the vibe of the show.
Regular viewers started to feel irritated and urged the haters to stop and let people watch the show.
