Always There: Win My Ex-wife Back

Chapter 43: Celebrity Effect 

At that moment, Michelle finally understood the meaning of the celebrity effect.

It was clear for her now why advertisements, publicity, and all kinds of spokespersons needed stars.It was because of their fame.

They all knew that for a brand to succeed, it depended on how the public received it, and celebrities played a major role in that.

With a helpless sigh, Michelle finally managed to get out from the back door, not without difficulty.

Although Cali checked into the hospital at noon, only within an hour, the building was surrounded by reporters from TV stations and newspapers.

Some paparazzi even called the hospital office and asked if Cali was there because of a miscarriage.

Michelle didn't know whether to feel annoyed or humored.

At last, she seemed to understand why all these famous people wore big sunglasses and caps when they went out in the street, not to mention why some even fought reporters.

It turned out it wasn't easy to be a celebrity.

Cali had been hospitalized for only a few hours and the press had already created millions of rumors about it.

It was said that Cali had got pregnant by accident because she was in love with Gerard.

Since she had to choose between career and love, she came to the hospital VIP ward to have an abortion.

No one in the outside world knew where this news came from or whether it was true.

As Michelle had read the test report, she was aware that it was just a minor illness of no importance, but the paparazzi insisted on the story that the actress was pregnant.

She didn't know who amazed her the most, these reporters and their imagination or Cali's exaggerated behavior.

Looking at the situation in front of her, Michelle realized that if she hadn't escaped from the back door, she wouldn't have known how to get off work.

Most of the doctors and nurses in the VIP ward were annoyed by those reporters.

They already got phone calls, granted interviews, and even had to deal with a guy trying to sneak in to take pictures of them.

Fortunately, they had found him on time, or else, Cali's current appearance would have been published on the front page of every newspaper.

"Look, the curtain of Cali's ward is closed!"

The reporters who had been waiting for news downstairs all took photos of a room on the top floor.

Some even had long-range zoom lenses with them.

Michelle shook her head with a smile.

Although sometimes she thought these people were incredibly annoying, they were just doing their job.

From noon until now, some of them hadn't eaten or drunk anything.

All that mattered was getting first-hand information so that they could publish it as soon as possible. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

In this way, they would earn more from the news.

As it seemed no one had it easy in any occupation.

"Hey, miss!"

A smiling young man with a camera around his neck walked towards Michelle.

Raising her head, she looked at the tall guy wearing gold-rimmed glasses and asked, "Is there something wrong?"

The man smiled awkwardly.

"I'm sorry to disturb you, but it will just take a few minutes.I know you're the doctor who attended Cali.Can you tell me something about her condition?"

"I'm sorry.I can't tell you anything about the patient."

Michelle didn't bother to contradict him.If he had recognized her as Calis doctor, he must have been well prepared.

Maybe that reporter who had disguised himself as a doctor in the afternoon was him.

In that case, he was really persistent.

"I know, I know.But you see, I have been here for five or six hours, and there is still no news at all.I can't go back with nothing."

"I'm sorry.I can't do anything about it," Michelle refused him again as she walked past him towards the bus station.
