Chapter 246:
“So what if Noelle turns out to be the famous NOMO? That doesn’t give her the right to mistreat her mother! Fame doesn’t excuse cruelty p>
“Noelle, you’re a disgrace to your family! You should apologize to your mother p>
These kinds of inciting comments were splattered across every platform.
To worsen the situation, Maxton had mobilized internet trolls en masse, exploiting society’s values about familial love and stirring up public fury. Misinformed commenters jumped on the bandwagon, demanding answers from Noelle with increasing aggression as the online storm spiraled further out of control.
The atmosphere at the press conference venue was electric. Reporters murmured excitedly among themselves, every lens directed at Noelle. She certainly proved once again why she was always at the center of media attention. The moment her name was involved, headlines practically wrote themselves.
Before Dorothy had the chance to formally begin the conference, one reporter abruptly stood up and fired off a question. “Noelle, honoring one’s parents is a basic moral principle. How could you behave in such a disgraceful way? Jessalyn said in a past interview that after you went missing, she never stopped looking for you. She welcomed you back into the Moss family with open arms, and now you’ve p>
The reporter continued, “Allegedly, you repaid her by shoving her violently onto the sofa. Isn’t that a betrayal of the people who took you in? And here you are, sitting confidently under the spotlight, dressed to impress, as if nothing happened. After being slammed online for a whole day, you don’t look the least bit apologetic or even tired. Are you saying you feel no guilt at all p>

Dorothy’s brow furrowed. She hadn’t expected the first question to be so hostile.
But Noelle remained still, unfazed. Her eyes were bright, her expression composed. “I’m not tired because I’ve got mental resilience. What’s wrong? Feeling envious p>
The reporter, momentarily thrown off, quickly recovered and snapped back, “So tell us, do you admit to pushing your mother p>
Noelle’s eyes flicked toward him with quiet contempt, her voice calm and firm as she responded, “To begin with, I’ve officially cut all ties with the Moss family. Jessalyn is no longer my mother, so I’d appreciate it if you addressed her accordingly, sir. And second—yes, I did push her p>
Her composed response landed like a lit match in dry brush. Within seconds, the room erupted into chaos.
Several reporters at the front surged forward, shouting over one another in an attempt to get their questions heard.
“Are you seriously confessing that you pushed Jessalyn? She gave birth to you! How can you justify treating your own mother that way p>
“According to Maxton, apart from Gerard and Brock, no one else in the Moss family mistreated you. Then why sever all ties? What do you have to say about that p>
One journalist shifted focus to Farrell, directing their pointed questions toward him. “Mr. Brooks, as the general manager of Royal Wind Entertainment, do you truly support an artist involved in such a scandal? Aren’t you worried about the fallout from the public p>
The entire press conference was being broadcast live.
