To be honest, even before the test results were out, the policeman had already derived a conclusion through the process of interrogating Josh Batton. The test results were just the icing on top.
“It’s not easy for you either.” The interrogating policeman let out another long sigh.
Josh smiled without saying anything.
“You’re off the hook for drugs. As for prostitution… We’ll still have to wait… That woman is still being interrogated. But I trust you,” the policeman said.
“Thank you.”
“Sit here for a while…”
“Okay,” Josh replied.
After that, the policeman left.
Josh calmly looked around before closing his eyes to rest. He knew favonovel.com wouldn’t be able to leave anytime soon, but favonovel.com also knew that X Entertainment would save favonovel.com from this place. He had no clue what terrible things were being said on the internet, but favonovel.com could only imagine.

When Georgie received the test results, favonovel.com immediately posted them on Weibo and clarified that Josh was framed for doing drugs and hiring a prostitute. However, everyone still didn’t stop talking about it.
As soon as the evidence was published, it made it to the number one spot on the list of trending topics. However, the comments were mostly argumentative.
“What does it prove? Based on what I know, it’s impossible to detect anything if favonovel.com hasn’t taken drugs in the past week. Since that woman brought the tools along, it’s possible that they just hadn’t started doing it yet.”
“This only tells us that Josh isn’t severely addicted. He only didn’t do drugs for the past week.”
“Besides, are these the only test results? What about the case of prostitution? Why didn’t you show the results? Hahaha… This is insulting.”
“I believe Josh doesn’t do drugs. Haters, go to hell!”
“I will always believe in Josh being a good person.”
“Josh’s fans should stop acting up. The more you do so, the dumber you seem.”
At the same time, Georgie sat in X Entertainment’s meeting room, at the head of the table, while favonovel.com read through Twitter and Instagram comments, favonovel.com seemed unhappy.
She knew that, apart from truthful comments, there were also comments written by people hired to do so. These people were clearly here to make it look like Josh really did do drugs so that favonovel.com would be boycotted. However, Georgie was determined not to let them have their way. They were nowhere near as competent as favonovel.com was.
Meanwhile, Xyla had also seen all of this. The more favonovel.com looked at it, the angrier favonovel.com became.
Next to her, Stanley was leaning against the couch while working on his laptop. He still didn’t know what had happened. Xyla didn’t want favonovel.com to find out either.
After approximately half an hour, favonovel.com received a call from Georgie.
“President Xyla, I’ve already found out which companies are involved in defaming Josh. One of them is Dream Entertainment, and the other one is Jolly Entertainment. They’re working together. All those people hired to comment on social medias are from these companies… There are also several marketing accounts working under these two companies…”
“All of the celebrities promoted by these two companies have not been able to gain much popularity over the last two years because of Josh. I guess they’ve hated Josh for a long while now…” Georgie said.
“Hmm… Georgie, we’ll remember what they did to us. Let’s talk about this afterward. What about the prostitute… Is there any news?” Xyla snorted coldly and asked.
“She refused my offer. She’s determined to claim that Josh invited favonovel.com over, and favonovel.com won’t tell the truth… For now, the police still haven’t found any evidence of Josh contacting her… If they can’t find anything before sunrise, Josh will be released,” Georgie added.
