Chapter 324: Both Fame and Infamy
Chapter 324: Both Fame and Infamy
"The last time I saw her."
Back then, Shirley Abbott seemed quite pretty, but thinking back now, something felt off: "Didn’t Grandma Kensington say she wasn’t good-looking? I thought she looked quite nice in the video."
Though The Elder Kensingtons are Aurora Sutton’s grandparents, for Aurora, they are the closest family, so she calls them Grandpa and Grandma.
Now both Zia Sutton and Thea Shaw follow suit in calling them that too.
"Right..."
Aurora Sutton said, "Maybe the elderly have different taste."
To be fair, Shirley Abbott is quite pretty.
The characteristics of her phoenix eyes are clear.
Thea Shaw found pictures of Shirley Abbott; recently, Shirley Abbott has been quite active, trending on social media with lots of videos and photos.
Last time, she’d only glanced briefly; the quality on the video might have distorted things. Thea Shaw looked carefully, then said, "She’s had work done on the corners of her eyes."
Shirley Abbott only had the corners of her eyes altered.
Her features are quite proper, but once her eye corners were opened up to form those phoenix eyes, her look became strikingly bold and defined.
No wonder she dared to enter the entertainment industry.
"Altered her eye corners?"
Aurora Sutton looked a bit intrigued for a couple of seconds, then snickered, "I thought she was all-natural."
Towards Shirley Abbott, she showed an uncommon harshness.
Of course, this was only directed at Shirley Abbott.
Thea Shaw said, "Everyone loves beauty, you know. The dance show she’s going on next week is pretty famous, whoa... there are already scandals about her on social media?"
Aurora Sutton said, "Hmm?"
Thea Shaw: "The internet’s full of brilliant sleuths these days."
The situation with Shirley Abbott wasn’t airtight; back in the day, when entertainment options were few, people focused on high society scandals.
Not to mention the pile of scandals in the Hong Kong circle, Benson Abbott’s wife’s suicide back then was quite a big piece of news.
Many still remember it; the younger generation heard about it from their families. When Shirley Abbott debuted, she didn’t shy away from using the Abbott Family name to prove her pedigree, and because of this, her mother’s involvement as a mistress was brought up.
[What kind of heiress? Just her mom forcing the wife to her death, do they think the internet forgets?]
[White, rich, and beautiful? If the main wife hadn’t hanged herself back in the day, would her mom have gotten in? Just the child of a mistress!]
[The Abbott Family was chased overseas like stray dogs over this back then, and they still dare to send the mistress’s daughter into showbiz? Truly bold.]
With countless insiders lurking on social media, once the scandal broke, Shirley Abbott instantly became a mixed figure of fame and infamy.
Aurora Sutton said, "This is the price of wanting fame."
Thea Shaw looked at the comments and shook her head, "If there’s blame, it should be on Benson Abbott, he’s no good either. He’s the one who drove your mom to death, you mustn’t let him go!"
Aurora Sutton nodded, "Yeah, I definitely won’t let him go!"
Little did they know, far across the ocean in the USA, things weren’t peaceful for the Abbott Family either.
Old Master Abbott watched as old affairs were dug up for internet ridicule again. He closed his eyes and angrily threw his phone across the room.
And he cursed loudly, "I told her not to go into the showbiz, but she wouldn’t listen. Now people from back home are calling to enjoy my disgrace, and at my age, I still have to deal with this embarrassing mess!"
Old Madam Abbott was beside him, her expression also sour, and she consoled, "This isn’t Shirley’s fault, and besides, Shane Kensington’s suicide was her own doing. How can we be blamed for that? She hung herself in our house on New Year’s Eve, she really did it!"
