Chapter 28 - Clearing the scandal

Melissa had just finished her morning shift at the Everyday supermarket when she got Luna's call informing her that Angelo was waiting for her at the entrance of the club, Melissa took a taxi and went straight to The Velvet lounge.

Angelo was sitted in a company Nanny van, his manager had gone to get some water in a nearby store, they have been waiting at the entrance of the club for like an hour but there was still no sight of the strange girl, he suddenly got a call from Kim Tan who explained the situation to him and sent him Melissa's contact number to him, he called the number but it wasn't answered, he called again and it was finally answered.

Can you call me back in a bit, I am heading somewhere or I will call you back later, Melissa who was rushing answered her call without knowing the caller.

Angelo heard the pleasant voice, it's me, where are you? He asked.

Who's this? Melissa asked looking at the strange number on her phone screen.

It's Angelo, he said again.

Melissa was shocked, it was her idol. Her idol was currently on the phone with her, talking to her!

Where are you? Angelo asked impatiently.

I am ehmm... close.... close to the club, Melissa answered stuttering.

I am at the cafe opposite the club, in a black Nanny van, just stop and get inside the car, we'll talk there, Angelo said ending the call.

Oh my gosh, my idol has my contact number and he called me,he wants to talk to me, Melissa thought to herself excitedly. Sir please can you drive faster.

This is the fastest I can go Miss unless you want us to get into an accident, the driver said.

Don't say such unlucky things, Melissa said obviously displeased at the driver's statement.

It didn't take long and the arrived The Velvet lounge, Melissa paid the driver and he drove off. She could see the Nanny van Angelo mentioned, she walked to the nanny van and knocked on the side glass.

Angelo was inside the nanny van listening to music and obviously in a bad mood when there was a knock at the side glass, he thought it was his manager and opened the door slightly for him. The door was opened a bit wide and a figure of a petite girl sneaked in. He recognized her as the girl from the club, the reason for all his problems right now.

Hello, Melissa who was nervous greeted Angelo.

Angelo ignored her greetings and immediately called Kim Tan, she's here already, you can send what you need us to post.

Melissa kept quiet looking at Angelo as he answered the call, my idol is so cute, many butterflies were dancing in her belly, she was so close to him.

After a while Angelo's phone beeped, it was a message from Kim Tan showing the company statement, Angelo's statement and Melissa's affirmation statement.

I will have to post first tagging your account then you will also tag the post and affirm it, Angelo spoke to Melissa seriously.

Ok, she answered still smittened by him.

Star entertainment posted first, the issue of our artist @Angelo was a misunderstanding, he was simply mobbed by a drunk fan, the company would take legal action against anyone who spreads false rumors.

The post was followed by Angelo's post, Hello besties, the whole issue was a misunderstanding, I was leaving The Velvet lounge yesterday when I was recognized by a drunk fan, she jumped at me and I lost my balance which led to the compromising position the paparazzi photographed, I helped her get a taxi and go home safely. She was a cute fan, I hope you all stop spreading rumors, love @Angelo.

Melissa tagged the post immediately, my idol is absolutely right, I saw him yesterday at The Velvet lounge and couldn't contain my excitement, I jumped on him and he lost his balance, the paparazzi photographed us from a confusing angle. My idol saved me yesterday and helped me get home safely. I hope you all can stop spreading rumors, my idol is so kind and cute to deserve all the bashing.

The three post caused an uproar online especially Melissa's post, it sparked reaction from fans and haters.

I knew my Angelo was not an irresponsible boy.

My idol is so kind, he's a role model.

They probably made this up to clear his name, a hater commented and was immediately bashed by fans.

The netizens changed their stand immediately, commending and praising Angelo for being a kind and cute idol.

Melissa's phone was buzzing with calls from friends who wanted to confirm if it was really her involved in the scandal with Angelo.

Thanks for your help, Angelo said to Melissa.

Melissa was delighted,he finally spoke to her kindly, he was being a bit harsh earlier obviously blaming her for causing him trouble.

It's ok, it's what I should do, I mean you helped my friend last night and I misunderstood you instead of thanking you, Melissa said looking down embarrassed of her behavior last night.

Angelo was now in a good mood and seeing the girl looking down embarrassingly made him chuckle. Are you a fan of mine? He asked.

Me , yess, no, I mean yes I am a very big fan of yours, I really love your music and your style, Melissa answered still looking down.

Angelo was pleased to hear that, let me sign you an autograph, he offered.

Ok, Melissa ruffled through her bag but couldn't find anything suitable for an autograph, I.....

Angelo saw her search through her bag but didn't seem to find anything,he took out one of his bracelet and give it to her, take this, it's a gift from me for your help and for being a fan, Angelo said.

Melissa looked at the bracelet in her hands and couldn't believe her eyes, she was about to thank him when the door opened and a middle aged man got into the spacious Nanny van, it was obviously their manager.

Mr David came in and saw the pretty girl, he deduced that she was the girl from the scandal as he had seen the clarification on his way back. Thank you Miss for your help,where are you going? We could drop you off.

No, no need to bother, I work here so I will just get down and go in, Melissa said.

Ok then, have a nice day, Mr David said.

Melissa got down from the Nanny van and watched as it drove away, she looked at the bracelet Angelo had given to her, this was definitely the most precious gift she has received, a gift from her idol

She went across the road and went into The Velvet lounge, ready for another work day.
