Carter's POV
Whispers of her alleged involvement with the top singer spread like wildfire, painting her as a manipulative troublemaker. I revel in the satisfaction of a tarnished reputation, convinced that Julie won't be able to bounce back.
But then, an unexpected twist unfolds. News spreads that a renowned investigative journalist is taking an interest in Julie's case. Rumors suggest that this journalist has a reputation for exposing corruption and bringing truth to light. Panic courses through my veins as I contemplate the consequences of this new development.
