The next day, Emily realised that the rumours about her had been suppressed. Even if she had not done the interview, the people online would have moved on; anyway, there was always something new to gossip about.
While Emily was having such a peaceful morning, the story was different for the Johnsons; somehow, the news had spread that Mr Johnson had offered his daughter to perverted older men to pave the way for his political career. The news was not on the internet like what happened to Emily; it was just gossip going around within their circle.
When Mrs Johnson learned about this, she was angry; of course, this news was fake, but some pictures were going around. The girl in it looked a lot like Isabella. As a mother, Mrs Johnson knew this was not her daughter, but many people had already concluded. Even if she wanted to argue about it, it was useless. After all, the more she spoke, the more many would assume she had a guilty conscience.
