Never 147
The entire event held a positive atmosphere. Many in the audience changed their views after listening to Linda's speech despite being initially skeptical about her.
On the way back, Lina scrolled through the online comments about Linda. A smile curled at her lips. "I thought I'd have to buy more headlines, but it turned out differently from what I expected."
Linda hadn't faced such a large audience in a long time and felt utterly exhausted. "Why do you say that?" "It's just a strange feeling. I thought there'd be more people criticizing you, but that didn't happen." As a professional manager, Lina was adept at handling situations and making decisive judgments. However, navigating online public opinion was beyond her control.
Linda was focused on the financial aspect. "To be honest, I'm certain the movie won't suffer a loss with the current buzz. If people watch my movie and criticize me, they've still spent money. Why can't they criticize? Spending money is for enjoyment and happiness, not to ruin one's mood."
Lina's mouth twitched. "I never realized you were this open-minded."
"People have to mature. I was just naive and inexperienced. Now that I'm almost 30, I would have wasted my early years if I still can't see things through."
Linda's comment reminded Lina that she would soon be 30, too.
When they first met, she thought Linda would remain innocent forever, but that was just a thought in the past.
"Lina, let's not dwell on such negative thoughts. We should live with positive thoughts. I'm doing fine now. Lina knew a lot about Linda's past with William. Whenever it came up, Lina might react before Linda did "I used to think you'd be happy forever," Lina said.
Linda asked in return, "Am I not happy now?"
"I can't see your happiness. It seems like you're forcing your smiles."
"But in reality, I enjoy my current life,"
Happiness was a choice. Linda had found moments of joy, and that was enough.
The phone in her bag rang. It was Chloe, who was most likely calling to congratulate her after watching the recording of the event.
"I'll hang up if there isn't anything else. I don't want to hear any of your nonsense." Linde interrupted before Chloe could speak.
Chloe had the habit of rambling endlessly, and Linda found it irritating.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
