Since removing the photos online required some time, reporters and fans mobbed Shannon and the other cast members once they exited the hotel.
The reporters had been stationed outside the hotel since early morning to acquire the latest news, while the fans were naturally there to support Shannon.
To them, Shannon was still an 18-year-old girl no matter what. She deserved to date freely just like any other girl her age.
"We got your back, Shannon!"
"We're always behind you, Shannon!"
"You're doing great! Be happy!"
Worried about potential issues, the production crew forbade Shannon from revealing her face. It wasn't until she entered the car that she saw a group of agitated fans and reporters outside. She lamented, "There are more passersby than usual today."
She had long become accustomed to the mobbing and attention, which increased after every episode.
Hearing her words, Olivia couldn't help but comment, "You'd better not let your fans hear this."
"Why not?"
"They're not just passersby; they're your fans," Olivia explained annoyingly.
Previously, she had learned Shannon's aloof attitude when it came to online talk and attention. She would only think about posting on social media once every two weeks, let alone create posts to engage with her fans.
Luckily, her soul was switched back in time. Otherwise, if Kiley had stayed in her body for seven days, as she proclaimed, Lucy's overall fortune would be stripped clean.
Although she was back in her body now, she would likely die in an accident in the future due to her extreme loss of fortune. Stolen fortune couldn't be recovered—a piece of information Shannon kept secret yesterday because she didn't want to add to Lucy's distress.
"Due to your body takeover yesterday, your recent fortune will decline. You should watch out during this period." Although Shannon didn't tell the exact truth, she kindly reminded Lucy regardless.
Lucy displayed a look of bitter resignation. "That's what I thought, too. Yesterday, I choked while eating and almost fell when I came out of the bathroom. I'm so unlucky," she said self-deprecatingly.
As much as she seemed helpless on the surface, she was truthfully anxious.
