Willow’s complexion turned a shade paler. The female celebrities animosity toward influencers was clear Their accusatory tone made it apparent–they believed Willow had stolen Wilhelmina’s bracelet
But how could they? Willow hadn’t taken anything. It was unjust to be blamed for a crime she didn’t commit. She had fought hard to survive, not to be unfairly accused, but to confront and punish those who had wronged her.
Willow lifted her head defiantly. Her petite frame made her seem even tinler than these celebrities, who embodied an extreme standard of thinness. Yet, as she gazed up, the fierce determination in her eyes overshadowed her rivals superficial charm
Standing tall and composed, Willow resembled a sturdy tree weathering a brutal snowstorm

“A thief like her shouldn’t just be banned from the entertainment industry, but from the internet, too! The Nation’s First Love? Is she trying to teach everyone how to steal?”
“I can’t believe I auditioned alongside such a shameless thief today! It’s humiliating!”
“She’s such a nasty person! Why doesn’t someone like her just end her life?”
