The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon
Chapter 433 A Clear Conscience This blog post garnered a lot of attention, and many prominent social media figures shared it.
Despite L.Moon having done a good deed, some people used it as an excuse to attack L.Moon, resulting in the studioâs Instagram account being flooded with insults and derogatory comments.
The situation escalated to a point where it seemed uncontrollable.
Some even began to question whether the volunteer teacher was collaborating with L.Moon and Alana to create publicity by using the children to gain more attention. Rumors even spread that the teacher had received a substantial fee of 150 thousand from L.Moon.
That night, Abigail tossed and turned in bed.
Furious, Luna complained, âI knew someone would try to stir things up, but I didnât expect it to happen. this quickly.â
âItâs my fault. I shouldnât have designed those embroidered patterns on the clothes just to make them look better.â Abigail sighed with a hint of self-blame.
Now, there was no response from the volunteer teacher, and Abigai the full situation.
The two stayed awake until 2.00AM.
dared not speak out without knowing Early the next day, the phone began to ring as soon as they arrived at the office. Luna placed her hand on Abigailâs shoulder and said, âIâll take this.â
Abigail nodded.
Luna then walked over and picked up the phone. She was about to respond sharply when she heard the caller introducing herself in a gentle voice. Iâm a reporter from Capitalis Daily. Iâd like to arrange an interview with you. Are you available today?â
âUh-huh... We are,â Luna replied, her heart pounding.
Capitalis Daily was an official newspaper. Luna could not help being concerned about the potential consequences of the interview for L.Moon.
After she hung up the phone, Abigail looked at her with a nervous expression. âWho was that?â
âA reporter from Capitalis Daily. I hope it doesnât turn into a big issue.â Luna squeaked, her face turning pale.
Abigail bit her lip but remained silent.
The two of them were no longer concerned with what was happening online. They hurriedly cleaned the meeting room, checked the office for anything inappropriate, and anxiously waited for the Capitalis Daily reporter to arrive.
At 9.00AM, a well-dressed, short-haired journalist arrived at L.Moon. Abigail and Luna welcomed her into the meeting room, and after pouring her a cup of coffee, they sat down obediently and got ready to begin the interview.
The journalistâs team was highly professional, they set up the cameras and promptly left the meeting 1/2 111 room.
âIâm Melody Cadence. Iâm quite surprised that we were able to arrange this interview so smoothly.â The journalist, despite her serious attire, spoke in a friendly manner.
After Abigail and Luna introduced themselves, Melody asked, âShall we begin?â
With almost no preparation, both of them were unsure of what questions the reporter would ask. But they had come this far, so there was no turning back.
After they nodded, the cameras started rolling.
Melody turned her attention to Abigail and asked in a gentle tone, âL.Moon donated winter clothing to children in rural areas.
However, instead of receiving praise from the public, it faced widespread resistance and insults. How do you, Alana, feel about this situation?â
âAt first, we didnât plan to make this public precisely because we were concerned about this outcome. It was a design oversight that led to netizens discovering that L.Moon donated the clothes. I am saddened by this result, but my sadness doesnât stem from the misunderstanding of netizens. Instead, itâs the fact that it has led to false accusations against the teacher,â Abigail replied honestly.
Melody nodded and continued, âYour design style is unique. When designing clothes for the children, was it an unintentional oversight, or was it a professional habit that you must add something unique to the clothes?â
âThese winter clothes went into production around October. The designs were relatively uniform to make it easy for boys and girls to distinguish between them. I added different patterns to the clothes, mainly to make them look better. I never anticipated that a single piece of embroidery would lead to such a problem,â Abigail explained sincerely.
After taking notes, Melody went on. âWhat was the cost of producing this batch of winter clothing?â
âIncluding fabric, materials, and labor, it was approximately 150 thousand. The filling in the winter clothing is 99% down and 1%
silk. The fabric is waterproof and durable, and the wholesale price is not cheap. L.Moonâs labor costs are higher compared to other factories. This is well-known within the industry. Abigail replied.
âThese clothes are indeed not cheap, considering that the highest-priced clothing by Alana can sell for millions, Melody added with a gentle smile.
Abigailâs chest tightened, unsure if this was an indication that L.Moonâs high prices would be scrutinized. âMiss Smith, how do you feel about the behavior of netizens in response to this donation? Will you be disappointed and reconsider future charitable activities Melody turned to Luna with her question âNo, I wonât. In the future, weâll be more cautious. I donât really care about the opinions of netizens or influencers I donât know.
Moon genuinely donated clothing to the children so they have a warmer winter. Our actions are substantial, and the teacher is genuinely doing good work in a remote area. Weâre much better than those who criticize usâ Luna, despite knowing it might be inappropriate to say this, let her grievances be known.
Melodyâs smile widened at those words. Im glad you took the time out of your busy schedule to grans me this interview. Thatâs all for today. Thank youâ She quickly left after that.
Both Abigail and Lunaâs hearts were thundering again their chests âRegardless of what happens, we have dear concichorâ
Abigail held Lunas hands as she used those word, not a hist of four in her voice
