Chapter 1569Â
Hearing Aurora’s voice, Megan finally put her phone down and looked up, her expression unusually serious. “Rora, there’s something I’m not sure you know.”Â
Aurora sighed softly. “Well, if you don’t tell me, then I definitely won’t.”Â
Sometimes Megan had this habit–she’d drop a heavy statement and then wait for Aurora to guess what it was about.Â
But most of the time, Aurora had no clue where to even begin. Still, since Megan was her closest friend, she played along with her guessing games.Â
“You remember Yvonne used to work with my cousin, right? She also has her own studio overseas, and she’s pretty, so she’s gathered quite a number of fans.”Â
Aurora nodded knowingly. “That I can understand. With all those factors combined, it’s only natural she’d have supporters.” “But that’s not what I’m trying to tell you.” Megan’s tone grew grave.Â
“Her fanbase is… extreme. The things they do are beyond reason. In that circle, everyone knows what they’re like, and none of us think it’s a good thing.”Â
Aurora raised a brow, intrigued. “What kind of things do they do?”Â
If Yvonne really had that kind of influence over people, it was hard to imagine her fans wouldn’t car them.Â

Megan pressed her lips together, clearly unsure how much to say. After a moment, she chose her words carefully.Â
“Her fans act in very extreme ways. I remember a couple of years ago, they actually drove an ordinary girl to her death–purely through online harassment.Â
“They weaponized public opinion and ganged up on her.”Â
Megan swallowed nervously at the memory. “Back then, Yvonne’s fanbase was huge. She was one of the top celebrities in the entire circle.Â
“Her fans would take every word she said and little gesture as a cue to act.Â
“But even when those fans do extreme things in Yvonne’s name, there are still people defending them.Â
“They claim it’s just because they love her too much–that their obsession makes them act that way.”Â
Aurora frowned. “And no one’s ever heÂ
accountable for it?”Â
She couldn’t believe that someone with such influence could turn a blind eye to the chaos her fans caused.Â
If Yvonne continued to let her followers run wild without stepping in, she should bear some responsibility.Â
After all, a public figure’s every move shapes their fans‘ behavior. If she had guided them properly, maybe none of this would’ve happened.Â
Megan’s jaw tightened, anger flickering in her eyes. “No one ever went after her. Not legally, not even morally.Â
“Instead, those people keep shouting the same thing over and over- that fans‘ actions can’t be blamed on their idol.Â
“They say fans and idols are separate, that what the fans do has nothing to do with the person they admire.”Â
Aurora’s brows knitted tighter. “People actually believe that?”Â
It made no sense to her. The idea that fans mirrored the behavior of their idols wasn’t wrong.Â
