Chapter: 497
"Indeed. Galilea was aware of his marital status and yet she pursued him."
“What a bitch! Was she oblivious to the fact that Sabrina was enduring all the blame and slander on her behalf? She didn't utter a single word in defense."
Among the people who previously targeted Sabrina, only a handful admitted their error and apologized to her, while many feigned ignorance.
They refused to acknowledge their role in spreading the slander
Some made comments on the posts spreading rumors about Sabrina.
"Sabrina isn't the home-wrecker, you rumormonger!"
“Where's your apology? Oh, you're being sued? Excellent!"
Certain bloggers had erased their posts, but people had preserved the screenshots. "Someone's conscience seems to be pricking them."
That was how people were on the Internet. They tended to follow the prevailing trends.
While claiming to be against cyber violence, some individuals would immediately proceed to mock Galilea in the comments under her posts.
Had the controversy merely been media-induced, Galilea's followers could have claimed innocence. But then someone posted an inquiry under Galilea's team's official page, questioning the validity of the rumors linking her and Tyrone.
The team's vague emoji response, void of denial, was interpreted as affirmation by eager gossip-mongers.
Suddenly, Galilea was branded as a home-wrecker.
No matter how vehemently her fans denied the allegations, detractors twisted the narrative to implicate Galilea.
If she wasn't guilty of an affair, then she was complicit in a cyber-attack on Sabrina.
Critics were relentless, constantly finding novel ways to malign Galilea.
Supporters of Darlene and Bradley, both of whom had previous disputes with Galilea, piled on.
Galilea's name was soon a trending topic.
In response, her team released a statement clarifying Tyrone's role as merely a friend and warned the public against perpetuating false narratives.
Loyal fans backed her.
