Bennett walked over to the French window and answered the call.
She set down her coconut and eagerly clicked on Twitter.
Having been occupied throughout the day and with Bennett engrossed in his phone call, she seized the opportunity to catch up on the latest news.
She couldn't deny that today's Twitter was exceptionally fascinating.
From morning until night, Twitter buzzed with discussions about her. Claudia's situation had become a trending topic on the platform.
In the top ten trending topics, Claudia noticed three discussions directly related to her. These included ‘CC: Bennett's First Love?', “Claudia's Substitute?', and 'CC Is Claudia?'. Her presence had sparked a wave of curiosity and speculation among Twitter users.
She had missed the trending topics earlier in the day, and she was seeing them now because Aurora had sent her screenshots she saved.
Despite that, Claudia could still read all the earlier tweets if she clicked on them.
The first trending topic, ‘Is CC Bennett's First Love?', was the work of Kayla's associates.
Claudia clicked on the trending topic and read the first comment, which had garnered the most replies. It read," I've already said there is no true love in wealthy families, but only mutual interests!"
The comment had been posted at 11 a.m., before the competition had ended and before the so-called ‘accident’ with Claudia's mask coming off had occurred. At that point, no one knew that CC was actually Claudia.
Someone had taken photos of Bennett on his way to the competition site to watch CC compete.
Subsequently, some astute Twitter users pointed out that Bennett had been present at every competition CC had participated in.
Therefore, the speculation that CC was Bennett's first love seemed more plausible.
However, things took a turn by midday when CC experienced a wardrobe malfunction, causing her mask to fall off and revealing a stunning yet familiar face.
That was why many netizens surfing the net during Lunch break Liked and commented on the tweet, ‘Is CC Bennett's First Love?' Some comments included:
“Yes, there may not be true love in wealthy families, but the Dreskins are an exception!"
“Ha-ha, the true identity of CC has been revealed. It turns out that CC is none other than Miss Marshall, aka Mrs. Dreskin. I wonder what the person who made that comment is thinking now."
"It's quite amusing. I've heard this kind of speculation before, and every time it involves Mr. and Mrs. Dreskin, it turns into a joke. The so-called substitute is actually Mrs. Dreskin herself! The netizens are an imaginative lot!"
As Claudia read through the comments, she was happy at the overwhelming support and positivity she was getting.
Although she wasn't a vindictive person, Claudia couldn't help but feel a sense of immense satisfaction when she thought about Kayla being a laughingstock with the malicious trending topic she had created.
Perhaps Claudia was a little catty after all.
Suddenly, something crossed her mind. She quickly scrolled through her messages and found the one Kayla had sent her the previous night. Without hesitation, Claudia began to type a response.
“I'm sorry, Miss Bryant. My phone signal was weak, and I just received your message."
