Chapter 18 - Interview

It's a gloomy day, but people are scattered all over the place. Ambulances and police are everywhere a young girl was just looking blankly at the busy people around her.

Her eyes are like going blind from the flashes of cameras everywhere, and police are blocking the reporters from coming near the house. She was just sitting in this ambulance, and the blanket served as her shield.

When the two bodies were carried away by the paramedics, she realized that it was her parents who had been killed in the shooting.

*'แม่'(mom) In her mind she still see how shouted to wake her mother up.

'พ่อ' (dad) she goes on the other side to shake his father's body instead hoping he will get up.

The red fluid flowing on her parents body is starting to spread on the floor.

'ช่วย!!' (help) "The girl shouted and her voice is hoarse from shouting non stop. *

The world around her seemed so silent as she sat there in shock, the world seem empty as she think of being left alone in this big and scary world.

The young girl was in a state of shock and disbelief as she watched her parents being carried away by the paramedics.

She get off the ambulance and just stand there watching the dead bodies being carried away from her.

*And the face of the man with mask flash into her mind again.

How the eyes of that person look like and how he look at her with those full of emotion eyes with tears being held. *

The tragedy had left her feeling lost and alone, with no idea how to move forward in a world that suddenly seemed so dark and cruel.

She clutched on to the blanket tighter, seeking comfort and security in its warmth. As the sky started pouring the same time her tears streamed down her face, as if the heavens cries with her.

She was in that state when a man with an umbrella wearing a black suit came near and gave her a tight hug. And a running woman  also came near her, crying, and they both comforted her with a hug.

She remembered how she punch the man for several times before the muderer held her hand and embrace her.

And immediately pulled back and look her in the eyes.

"I am sorry" The man voice echoed in the girls mind.

And still how the murderer left her in that room with her lifeless parents.

"Maam, we are here," said the bodyguards, who tapped her shoulder to wake her.

"Thanks, Mr. Jaa," she said to her bodyguard. She stepped out of the car and looked around to make sure everything was safe before heading towards the entrance of the building. As she walked, she couldn't help but feel grateful for the protection provided by her bodyguards 

She decided to attend the interview alone as the station changed its mind about making Rebecca talk for herself in this issue.

She felt confident in her ability to represent both herself and Rebecca's perspective and wanted to avoid putting any additional pressure on Rebecca, who may have been uncomfortable speaking publicly.

All in all, this is all her fault. She drags Rebecca into this scandal, and as she enters the building, she can see her supporters waiting for her outside the building.

Despite feeling confident, she couldn't help but feel guilty for dragging Rebecca into the scandal. As she walked towards the building, she knew that she had a lot to answer for and hoped that her supporters would understand her situation. 

She waved and smiled at her fans who were waiting for her As she approached them, they started cheering and shouting her name, making her feel overwhelmed with gratitude for their support.

And she then walked inside while her guards were all around her. She entered the elevator and finally arrived at the studio where the interview was to be held. The Host greeted her with a warm smile and led her to the seat. She took a deep breath and prepared herself for the questions that were about to come her way. The host started with a simple question about her latest project, which she answered confidently. As the interview went on, she became more relaxed and even cracked a few jokes, showing her fun and witty side to the audience.

And the host suddenly changed his aura and fixed himself from his seat this then she knew that the next is going to be about her and blew's break up in public few days ago she tried to compose herself and mentally prepare for the tough question. However, to her surprise, the host asked about her future plans and aspirations instead, which she answered with enthusiasm and optimism.

'' So, many of us here are all here are waiting for the main question to be answered, this is regarding your break up with Blew.'' The interviewer started. 

''We understand that this is a sensitive topic, and we hope that you feel comfortable enough to share your thoughts with us. We are all ears.The audience is eager to know what led to the breakup and how you are coping with it. However, we respect your privacy and understand if you choose not to answer any questions that you are not comfortable with.'' The host continued.

Freen nodded and answered, '' I don't mind answering your questions. In fact, I came to clarify the accusations and stories being made just to drag people into making an issue about me disclosing about me and Blew's fake engagement.

'' She took a deep breath and continued, ''But I want to make it clear that there is no truth to those rumors about me having an affair; Rebecca and I are only just friends, and she has nothing to do with me or Blew's personal problems.'' Freen's statement shows that she is willing to address the rumors surrounding her and Blews' engagement.

'' I am saying this to stop those people and trolls  from attacking Rebecca and her family about Rebecca's rumored affair with me that has been spread not just now but years ago before she left the showbiz and pursued her studies instead.'' Freen's aura of honesty and transparency is evident in her willingness to address the rumors head-on and clear the air about her relationship with Rebecca. Her statement should put an end to the baseless speculation and allow everyone involved to move forward with their lives.

She did this because she called Rebecca's family the moment she got out of Rebecca's room at the resort. And Rebecca's mother was so furious about the matter, as the reputation of her daughter was at stake and people were judging her. The reason she called Rebecca's family immediately was to inform them about the situation and seek their understanding in addressing it. It is understandable that Rebecca's mother would be angry, as her daughter's reputation is important and she does not want people to have a negative perception of her.

''I ask people to stop spreading fake news, and with the video of us inside the car, I already sued the paparazzi who took it and spread such a rumor, and I will not hesitate to take legal action against anyone who continues to spread false information about Rebecca and me,'' Freen said in a statement. She also urged the public to respect their privacy during this difficult time.

People in the studio, including the host, were so shocked and shaken at Freen's statement, and this is also the first time that they saw the serious side of Freen, as she was always portrayed as a sweet and graceful actress. The statement made by Freen must have been unexpected and contrary to her usual image, which caused the people in the studio to be taken aback. It is possible that this incident will change how Freen is perceived by the public and may affect her future career prospects.

The host was pulled back to reality as a piece of paper was given to him by a staff member. The staff member's interruption brought the host back to its original purpose, but the tension in the room lingered as everyone tried to process Freen's unexpected statement. It remains to be seen how this incident will impact both Freen and the public's perception of her. 

"And also because you mentioned your video, which is now spreading on social media. I'm curious to know more about the video. What is it about, and why do you think it's gaining traction on social media? And could you please clarify as you deny it obviously you are giving us a hint that the sex video was true?'' That question was expected by Freen, as she came prepared to answer questions about the matter.

"Yes," Freen answered immediately, without hesitation. It gained loud gaps inside the studio .

Rebecca's mother almost collapsed as she heard what Freen was saying in the interview as their family watched the interview on television.

Richie was embracing her and helping her calm herself while they sat on this sofa in front of the TV in the living room.

''See, what I mean when I say I am not happy seeing our daughter being close with that Freen , but always tolerate it, look now at what I mean by she is ruining our daughter.'' Becky's mother ranted to her husband, Becky's father, who was standing.

"Honey, can you please listen first to what she has to say?" Becky's father said this while defending Freen from Becky's mother's judgment.

"Now that you've said it and it's clear what you said, let's proceed to the next question." The interview said

Becky's father showed his support for Freen and emphasized the importance of listening to others before making judgments. The interview now continues with the next question.

"As you said the sex video was true, as an icon, this statement will affect your image negatively." How do you plan to address this issue and regain the trust of your fans?" Freen was expecting this to happen as Blew's side is trying to take her down.

"First of all, calling it a sex video is a bit misleading, as you cannot see clearly what we are doing as my car is tinted and you seeing me close to her was me helping her with the car seatbelt, which is stuck and can't be pulled; it was a blurred video, so you all think it was something else." Freen explained confidently—well, it was partly true, she said in her mind.

Becky's father now was smirking and looking at the TV, being proud of how Freen handled the issue smoothly. 

And immediately look in the direction of his wife, who is now calmer in Richie's hold. The woman is still full of pride, but now she seems to be more composed and collected, perhaps realizing the gravity of the situation and the need to stay calm.

On the other hand, at the resort, everyone was so engrossed in watching the interview that Becky's brows wrinkled in confusion as a video was shown on the talk show and censored for viewer discretion. Becky wondered what the content of the video was and why both she and Freen were involved in it. She also wondered how the video ended up on a talk show and who leaked it to the media.

'' What video are they talking about?'' Becky was so confused about the video Freen was talking about as they watched the interview; nobody told her about it, and her phone was still in Kirk's hand. She asked Saint to explain it to her, but he was too engrossed in the video to give her a proper response. Becky decided to wait until the interview was over before asking Kirk for her phone back so she could watch the video herself.

Kirk just came here out of the blue; they don't know where he got the information that they were here, but he did find them.

So this is what Freen is hiding from me. Becky thought.

''I am gonna talk to you come back.'' Becky said it in her mind.

Freen didn't trust that I could handle this; I studied law. Despite Freen's lack of trust in my abilities, I was determined to prove myself and put my legal knowledge to good use.How could she not trust me? Becky thought, but chose not to say anything and analyze the situation as she always does as a graduate law student. Becky knew that gaining trust takes time and effort, and she was willing to work hard to earn Freens' confidence in her legal abilities.

For now, she just has to trust Freen and the team about this issue; she knew Saint, as their manager, has something to do with Freen's action now.

He really is a man in action; you won't know his next move and he is also a bit mysterious. Yes, he is friendly but also a very secretive person, and she wondered who is behind those masks he wears when he is facing everyone.

As Becky was busy observing the man, another pair of eyes was set just for her, as they always focused on her unnoticed.

Secretly taking pictures of her from a few meters away, it can even be said he is one of their circle, but is he?
