Chapter 365 Just Friends
In Oceanvile, Catherine came across several high-profile figures on Twitter, all with verified accounts. One of them was a renowned music producer who had posted a tweet garnering a lot of likes and followers on Twitter.
“The music industry has seen better days than a decade ago, but we’re still working hard. Let’s not bring negative influences into the music industry and tarnish the last traces of purity in this circle!”
Although he didn’t directly mention Catherine on Twitter, he had previously liked a post from a popular blogger who criticized Catherine. It didn’t take much guessing to figure out who he was referring to.
A group of fans joined in. They passionately supported his views and added their own criticism of Catherine. Branden glanced at the man’s Twitter profile and immediately provided Catherine with background information.
“He is from the Hazels in Oceanvile. He has a niece participating in the competition.”
With the last name Hazel, she participated in the same competition. Catherine looked up at Branden and asked, “Is it Emma Hazel?”
He nodded and replied, “That should be the name.” Even though he hadn’t taken direct action, he had all the information he needed. Catherine squinted her eyes as she was deep in thought.
She couldn’t help but feel that this situation wasn’t as straightforward as it seemed, especially considering the frenzy on Twitter. Catherine recalled her homeroom teacher’s instructions and decided to post an update on her Twitter account.
Meanwhile, Ronin was engrossed in his game. He was infuriated by those online trolls attempting to smear Catherine. He could only find solace by eliminating a few opponents in the game. Suddenly, a notification popped up.

“Your friend has posted a tweet.”
He only had one friend on Twitter, and that was Catherine. The moment Catherine updated her Twitter, Ronin immediately closed his game and logged onto Twitter to check it out.
Catherine posted a tweet. “Just friends.
It’s all about one’s abilities.”
With these simple words, she made a bold statement. Upon seeing it, Ronin let out a loud cheer and enthusiastically liked the post. He exclaimed, “Catherine, that’s amazing!”
After that, he took a screenshot of Catherine’s tweet and shared it in a WhatsApp group. He actively mentioned all his friends and said, ” Hurry up and show some support for Catherine. Give Catherine some likes!”
Although most of them weren’t active on Twitter, some of them had verified accounts and a substantial following.
Triston had a verified account that indicated he was the CEO of a prominent company. He also retweeted Catherine’s tweet and liked the post.
He mentioned Catherine and made a comment. “Cheer up, Kathy. Let’s not tolerate anyone trying to ride on Catherine’s popularity.”
Yesenia was a social media maven who loved to share and had an account with numerous followers on Twitter. She also retweeted Catherine’s post on Twitter and rallied behind her.
Initially, the tone of comments on Twitter was overwhelmingly negative, but with these influential figures showing their support for Catherine, the landscape shifted dramatically.
Some clueless fans made a comment. ” How much did Catherine pay to get so many people to promote and defend her?”

If such a comment were made on a typical tweet, it would be ridiculed mercilessly. But when it was made under Triston and the others’ posts, it only invited scorn for the commenter’s ignorance.
Could someone like Triston, who was the CEO of Boren Entertainment and known for his extravagant lifestyle and lavish spending, be bought?
And did the Lamberts need money?
Triston found the comment amusing and posted a picture of several black credit cards from his wallet on Twitter. Then, he made a comment.
“How much for an army of trolls? Can I use these cards?”
The tone of the discussion took a sudden turn, and fans started posting various comments. They pointed out that even a single card from the set would be enough to buy an airplane.
They commented that a wealthy young man like Triston couldn’t be short on money. As for Yesenia, her Twitter account was renowned for extravagance. A wealthy girl like her wouldn’t be short of money.
Their WhatsApp group exploded into chaos due to Yesenia’s and Triston’s provocative actions, and those who didn’t have Twitter accounts were clamoring to create one.
However, what intrigued them the most was Branden’s reaction. Before they could indulge in any more gossip, Yesenia let out a scream in the group.
“Wow! Hurry up and check Twitter. My uncle is so cool!
“Oh, my God…”
Aidan and the others scolded Yesenia for her constant dramatic reactions. They called her inexperienced. Nevertheless, they couldn’t resist pulling out their phones and checking Twitter to see what Branden had done.
After all, it was a rare occasion for someone as low-key as him to make a public statement. Branden had always maintained a low profile, with very few reports about him in the media. It was even challenging to find a single photo of him.
Occasionally, Branden could be seen at international economic forums during some global summits.
Just as online discussions were focused on how Catherine knew so many people, an official Twitter account with no connection to the entertainment industry suddenly retweeted Catherine’s Twitter post. It drew the attention of the public.
The only official Twitter account of the Duncan Corporation had shared Catherine’s tweet on Twitter with a simple comment. “Support!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe Duncan Corporation was known for its formality and seriousness, and its official account typically only retweeted the company’s official activities. Now, it was sharing Catherine’s tweet, who was a relatively unknown individual in the entertainment industry.
Twitter went wild in an instant. People started digging into Catherine’s background to understand why she had received so much support from prominent figures.
After Grayson posted his tweet, he happened to come across Branden’s tweet. He gave a bitter smile and handed his phone to the agent who had been preventing him from tweeting further.
“Even without me, Catherine can still handle it. She is more powerful and impressive than you’ve imagined.”
The agent glanced at Grayson’s phone and was stunned. He was well aware of the Duncans. It was one of the wealthiest and most powerful families in Zerwick. Their official Twitter account was now publicly supporting Catherine. It was evident that they wouldn’t let anything happen to Catherine.
The agent had been trying to prevent Grayson from offending his fans over an artist with little fame. He thought his approach was correct, but he never expected Catherine to have such a powerful backing.
This time, he had truly miscalculated. The agent hesitated and wanted to explain. He said, “Grayson, I think…”
Grayson raised his hand to silence the agent and didn’t give him an opportunity to speak. Grayson smirked at his agent with a face filled with mockery, and his eyes were cold. He stood up with one hand in his pocket and walked away.
As he watched Grayson’s haughty figure depart, the agent realized that he had indeed offended Grayson this time.
He knew that he had offended Grayson, but he had no idea how sad Grayson was. Grayson resented his own lack of strength and realized that he wasn’t as powerful as Branden. Even if Grayson had tweeted, it wouldn’t have made any difference.
Catherine glanced at the Twitter account of the Duncan Corporation and frowned. She then turned to Branden beside her and raised an eyebrow in inquiry.
Branden understood her intent. He had originally planned to create his own Twitter account and retweet Catherine’s message.
However, he believed that it was too early to make their relationship public. Catherine was still in school, and it was better to be cautious.
Time was on their side, and there was no rush.
They could take things slowly.
