Chapter 146
Springer, young and hot-headed as he was, immediately assumed someone was
stirring up trouble when he saw the online feud escalating.
And the troublemaker in his mind was none other than Cutler who had been
scolded just that
morning.
Cutler was on his way down for lunch when he heard Springer’s accusation and
nearly slipped on the stairs. He snapped back angrily. “Don't pin this on me! I've
already settled things with my crew!”
Springer wasn't convinced. “If not, then who? Those trolls are looking for a fight!”
Cutler wanted to retort that Winnie's fiery character had earned her more than a
few detractors. not just him. But remembering the morning's events, he held his
tongue.
Another scolding from Uncle Clifford for mocking Winnie was the last thing he
needed.
Winnie herself didn't think it was Cutler's doing either. She suspected it was
Gentry’s fans.
Even though Gentry was just an internet sensation, his clever persona combined
with his image had garnered a dedicated fanbase, rivaling that of any celebrity
idol.
Springer, not one to understand the twists and turns of showbiz, felt that Gentry's
fans were the instigators. Without further argument with Cutler, he logged into his
account and started clapping back at the trolls.
But soon, he received a message from Horace telling him not to fan the flames.
Springer felt indignant. How was he fanning the flames? Wasn't he allowed to
defend Winnie against online attacks?
Horace had seen Winnie's post and the shifting tides in the comments section
soon after she posted it. Not well-versed in celebrity drama either, he wouldn't
jump into the fray like Springer.
He always believed that professional issues required professional handling.
So within five minutes, a team of professionals was managing the comments,
and the atmosphere quickly returned to normal.
Winnie knew Horace had pulled some strings through Grace and sent Drake a
message to express her gratitude.
Then she followed Horace and the other guests from the show back.
Drake, out of the blue, got a thank-you message. Although it was unexpected, he
accepted it gracefully and noticed she had started following people back on
social media.
After a thought, he had his assistant set up an account for him too, and he
followed her.

He sent Winnie a message, “Follow me back, Winnie.”
After all, he was her fiancé, even if just nominally.
aged
Winnie had just logged off when she saw Drake's message and, somewhat
perplexed, logged back in and found a new follower.
Without hesitation, she followed back.
She couldn't help but wonder what kind of content a big shot like Drake would
post, only to discover it was a brand-new account.
just
“Could it be that Boss Drake created a new accouo follow me?” The thought
flashed through Winnie and was dismissed almost as quickly.
Drake didn’t seem the type to bother with such trivialities. Probably Horace had
been pestering him again.
Winnie decided she would need to have a word with Horace. Even though Drake
was a neighbor, she couldn't keep troubling him with her matters.
Especially since she had already caused enough hassle for the big shot with the
whole spiritual energy and gold aura.
If this continued, the amulet she had given him as a token might not be enough
compensation.
Winnie's brief clash with Gentry's fans was soon forgotten as the production team
for Ghostly Guidance announced the air date for the second episode and the
substitute guests.
When the news about Naylor's arrest broke, the team worked overnight to edit
the first episode, cleanly cutting out his parts since he wasn't involved in the latter
half anyway.
But since many viewers had seen the uncut live version, the edited episode
seemed somewhat lackluster.
The production team was bothered by that though. They had already captured
the major
viewership!
The day before the second episode aired, Springer approached Winnie again,
this time with a professional stylist and assistant in tow.
After the first episode, he realized Winnie, as stellar as she was, didn’t shine in
terms of dress and daily affairs compared to true stars like Candace and Kane.
Even Gentry had a dedicated assistant.
Springer thought Winnie couldn't be outdone!
A stylist, an assistant and a car were all arranged.
Of course, he proposed it, and Horace arranged the execution.
After being fussed over by Springer, Winnie arrived at the filming location the
next day, looking transformed from head to toe.

Winnie's previous attire was decent, and her pairing was simple but comfortable.
But with the stylists professional touch, her appearance in the second episode
dazzled everyone, giving the impression of a fresh yet striking presence in the
entertainment world, even standing beside Candace..
Candace was envious.
Soon, all five guests had arrived.
The substitute guest was clearly meant to be the grand finale, so Winnie and the
other four, now somewhat familiar with each other after the first episode,
exchanged greetings.
Gentry brought up the online spat in Winnie's comment section while saying
hello.
“About my fans swarming your comment section earlier, I've explained it to them
during my live stream. No offense meant.”

Gentry’s earnestness, coupled with his sincere and straightforward demeanor,
made it seem as if he was offering genuine advice.
But Winnie caught the pride in his voice when he mentioned his Fox Spirit twice,
the last remark sounding almost like a subtle brag.
Sure, as soon as Gentry dropped that truth bomb, the chat in his livestream blew
up with his fans playfully ribbing Winnie for her less—than—careful stunt.
Not everyone with a fox had to claim they're honoring a fox spirit.
al
Winnie just chuckled at these words, well aware that Gentry's earlier pretense of
summoning a spirit was just for show.
Whether his home played host to a fox spirit was another matter entirely.
Mervin, who was also in the know, found himself more intrigued by Winnie, a

He smoothly shifted the conversation, striking up a chat with Winnie about the
goings—on at the Supernatural Department.
