"What was it this time?" Demi questioned upon hearing that they were in the headlines.
It wasn't uncommon for the men with her to be in the headlines quite often but from what Peony had mentioned earlier, it sounded as though she too was somehow included in these headlines.
Therefore, she was curious to know what exactly was posted online about them.
Not waiting for her response, Jamie pulled out his phone and began searching for any news he could find about them.
In no time, he found quite a few articles about himself and his buddies but nothing that mentioned Demi's name.
Hence, he was also eager to know what had caused Peony to bring this matter up.
"I had to work overtime thanks to the two of you." The woman grumbled over the phone as she began explaining what had taken place last night.
Images of Jamie carrying Demi out of the club and into the van followed by the rest of the men entering the same van began circulating a little past midnight.
While most of the city was asleep, the core audience who knew Jamie and his friends were wide awake to savor this fresh serving of gossip that the tabloids had presented.
After all, who in this country did not know the extremely famous band "Deja Vu"?
They had started out as just another idol boy band but their talent for music and their ability to blend different genres of music caused their popularity to skyrocket in just a span of seven years.
They had not only won the hearts of the locals but had also fared successfully in international circles as well.
While their music played a big part in them gaining loyal followers, their manager's shrewd planning and business acumen was one of the leading factors for them to have soared so high in such a short amount of time
Hence, while the members of Deja Vu were pretty popular with the media, Demi Monte, their manager had shared equal fame with their followers.
After all, she was present at every event, award ceremony, concert, and fan meet that had been organized since the creation of the band.
As the only woman around the five members of the boy band caused her to attract a lot of envy and hatred from their female fans.
They envied her for being surrounded by the handsome men all day long and hated her for that very same reason.
Therefore, whenever Deja Vu made a public appearance with Demi, it was inevitable for her to be scolded by the band's female followers.
While this was something Demi had learned to ignore right from the very start, the people around her disliked the amount of hatred she received online from the fans.
This was especially the case for Demi's elder brother who just wanted to do his best to protect his little sister from the online abuse.
Hence, Peony Elume, a very talented PR Manager was called late in the night when he noticed the trending topic online was an image of her sister being carried out of a club in Jamie's arms.
While he was extremely annoyed to see this image being circulated online, he was even more furious upon reading the nasty comments being made about her on these posts.
Therefore, he had made Peony work overtime to ensure that all the filth online about his sister was removed within the next hour.
Peony, who was just about to fall asleep, had no other option but to get right to work after receiving a phone call from her Boss.
In this way, she had to work until late into the night to make sure that all posts about Demi were removed from social media platforms.
Though she had to admit that she had received a little help from other sources which made it easier for her to resolve this online crisis and give her boss a satisfactory report once her task was completed.
"We diverted the public opinion to another piece of gossip." She revealed at the end of her recollection.
The quickest way to get people's attention away from one hot topic is to bring up another hot topic.
This was exactly what they had done last night and thanks to their diversion tactic, the heat Demi was receiving online moved to another person.
"Whose news did you release?" Jamie inquired as he began scrolling to see what it could have been.
"Oh, an actress who recently shot to fame." She did not hesitate to share the news they had exposed.
Last night, a newly emerging actress was spotted in a club with way too many guards around her.
This actress had been in the industry for many years yet only around six or seven months ago did she suddenly shoot to fame overnight.
She began gaining brand deals, drama roles and spots in variety shows that she had never even dreamed of in the past.
People called her the "Lucky Charm" since her fate had turned around overnight.
However, thanks to this sudden popularity, it was understandable that she had more haters than fans online.
Therefore, when some netizens spotted her at a popular club with many guards around her, they secretly clicked and posted her images online.
'Does an 18-tier celebrity really need so much security?'
'Why go to a club if you want your bodyguards all around you?'
'I think she is just showing off at this point...'
These were some of the comments that were made on this post.
This post was the first to arrive but was overshadowed by Jamie and Demi's post thanks to Deja Vu's immense popularity.
Hence, Peony had used her contacts to bring it back up and even made her people hype it up so that it gained more attraction after Demi's post was deleted.
"Maya Brie..." Jamie read out the name of the actress once he found the post that was still on top of the trending list.
"Yep, that's her!" Peony confirmed when she heard his voice over the phone.
"Though I doubt we can use her as a shield the next time." She added when she thought of a certain rumor that had been circulating recently.
"Apparently, she has some pretty powerful backing." She explained to keep the other two in the loop.
Demi was the least bit bothered about the gossip being shared but Jamie's expression worsened as he kept staring at his phone.
"I think we might know who her supporter is..." He scoffed while bringing his phone up close to Demi's face.
This action made her frown and before she could lean away, she paused upon seeing the images on the post he had found about that actress.
The images displayed a woman in a tight black dress being escorted through a crowded club, walking out of the establishment with her security and finally stepping into a black luxury car.
Not only were the two of them familiar with the woman in those images, they were also quite familiar with the car in that last photo.
'And he claims she isn't his toy...' Demi's lips curled into a sneer when she thought of the man she had spoken to last night.
