When The Family Reads The Fake Heiress Mind

Chapter 100 What Did I Ever Do to Her?

“I’ve been a fan of Easton for years. He’s not the warm and fuzzy type, sure- but he’s not the type to do something like that. I’m waiting to hear his side before jumping to conclusions.”

“It’s literally just Julia’s word right now. Easton hasn’t said a thing. And now all these people are pushing me to unfollow? Sounds like an organized smear campaign.

“Not going to lie, I was shaken at first. But after thinking it through, I’m sticking with Easton. I know what kind of person he is.”

“Can you all calm down? Some of these comments are way too harsh. Chill out and wait for Easton to say something.”

“I’m taking Easton and leaving. You all better watch how you talk.”

“What if Julia’s just lying? She hasn’t shown any proof, and you all are out here believing everything she says?”

“Ugh, classic. The more successful you are, the more people line up to tear you down. Easton’s just too popular–he’s an easy target.”

“I’m actually crying. Why are people going so hard on Easton? He’s definitely seeing all of this. He’s got to be heartbroken.”

Julia who? Does Easton even know you? Stop reaching.”

“I’m so mad I could scream. I’ve been battling trolls in the comments all day, but I finally shut them down. If you’re still coming for Easton, you’re next.”

Easton’s loyal fans were holding their ground, but the rest of the internet? Not so kind.

“She’s a 13–year–old girl, and Easton just left her there? What kind of person does that?”

“Wait–did this actually happen? Let’s not jump the gun here.”

“Let’s be real. I mean, look at the silence. This has been trending for hours, and Easton hasn’t said. a word. Feels shady.”

“Easton should be blacklisted from the industry.”

“Seriously? Acting all high and mighty, but he couldn’t even help a hurt teenage girl? That’s cold -and I’m pissed.”

“Still hiding, Easton? Say something already.”

“We’ve got to speak up for Julia. Girls support girls.”

“Why are brands still working with Easton? You seriously want him as your spokesperson? He’s tanking your reputation.”

“I used to like Easton. Now it just makes me sick. I was rooting for the wrong person.”

“Easton’s always come off as arrogant. Now we finally see the truth.”

“We should all speak up and hold him accountable. With the kind of money his family has, they’re probably already trying to bury this.”

“Julia’s just a regular kid–how’s she supposed to fight back? Wouldn’t be surprised if her whole post disappears.”

“She’s such a sweet, smart girl. Meanwhile, Easton’s out here acting heartless.”

“Honestly? I’m Team Julia now. Fully. She’s got my full support.”

Jean exited the app and let out a heavy breath.

Across from her, Easton lowered his phone at the same time, his gaze dark and unreadable.

While scrolling through Twitter, he’d also been listening–he’d heard every one of Jean’s thoughts. And honestly? He was confused too.

He was sure he’d barely even crossed paths with Julia. In fact, there shouldn’t have been any interaction at all.

Somehow, in the middle of looking for Jean, he’d ended up running into Julia–like it was bound to happen no matter what.

And somehow, it all spiraled again.

What he couldn’t wrap his head around was-

Easton raked a hand through his hair, frustration starting to bubble. What did I even do to her?

They hadn’t even spoken. He’d literally asked the rescue team to help her. He’d done the right. thing So why did she hate him like this?

He glanced down, a slight smirk tugging at his lips. Maybe he just had one of those faces people. couldn’t help but be jealous of.

Kaston Jean frowned slightly, watching him sit there in silence. He hadn’t said a word. She thought maybe he was upset. “Are you upset?”

Easton’s smirk only deepened. “Do I look upset? I’m smiling, aren’t P”

changed the subject. “Seriously though–how did you even cross paths with Julia? That wasn’t supposed to happen. What did you do to piss her off?”

Easton didn’t even blink. “No idea,” he said casually, raising an eyebrow.

Jean looked at him, a little stunned. “So what are you going to do?”

She couldn’t believe how calm he was. The internet was exploding, and this guy looked like he couldn’t care less. Did he not realize how bad this could get for his career?

Easton gave her a relaxed smile. “I mean, yeah, it looks bad. But I didn’t do anything. Julia’s making stuff up.”

Jean let out a short scoff. “If you don’t have proof, no one’s going to believe you. Even if you speak up, people will just say you’re trying to cover it up.” Then she added, more firmly, “Let’s be real you’re the one with power and status, and Julia’s just a kid. People are always going to side with the one who seems weaker.”

Easton chuckled. “You make a good point,” he said with a nod.

Then he said nothing else. He simply picked up his phone again, unlocked it, and started scrolling. noveldrama

Jean stared at him, completely speechless. That’s it? He’s really just going to sit there and do nothing? No plan, no response? Wow. No wonder Julia’s coming after you.

She didn’t say it out loud–but Easton heard her anyway.

He glanced up, his expression unreadable, but there was a flicker of cold amusement in his eyes. “Who says this is over? We’ll see how it plays out.”

Jean pressed her lips together. Where does that confidence even come from? Seriously?

Easton glanced back down at his phone. A moment later, something popped up that made him. laugh. “Huh. Look at that–the production team actually put out a statement backing me.”

Jean’s eyes widened. “What? What’d they say?”

Easton leaned slightly toward her and turned the phone screen so she could see.

It was a post from the show’s official account–an official statement clarifying what really happened.

They said Julia’s claims weren’t accurate. According to the production team, Easton and the rescue crew had found Julia while searching for Jean. Julia had an injured leg and needed help immediately, so Easton made the call to send her back with the rescue team while he kept looking for Jean on his own. In the end, Easton was the one who found her.

And most importantly, the statement confirmed that there were multiple witnesses–including members of the rescue team–who could back this up.

Honestly, Easton hadn’t expected the production team to step in and defend him so quickly.

But when he thought about it, it made sense. This probably came straight from Taylor.

He was the one who pushed to get Easton on the show in the first place. If Easton went down, the whole thing would fall apart–Taylor’s work and the investors‘ money, gone. So of course he’d step in and try to save it.

Jean, who already knew how all this would play out, just shook her head.

“Honestly, that statement probably won’t help much,” she muttered. She didn’t even need to check–she could already guess what was coming next.
