Chapter 445 Clearing His Name
Remington had a clear understanding of the personalities of his friends, and he knew whether or not they would engage in illegal activities. If Jimmy was truly that kind of person, he wouldn’t be friends with Jimmy.
“Mr. Nelson, we have found evidence in Mr. Bloom’s bag, and we will search his residence next. We can only conclude after the investigation is complete. Sorry for the inconvenience!”
After a brief explanation, the police officer, who recognized Remington, hurriedly left.
The premiere scene was chaotic, but fortunately, Cecelia had the ability to control the situation. She immediately contacted the director and producer to handle the situation and prevent the news from spreading.
Under Cecelia’s guidance, Jimmy’s fans and the celebrities invited to the screening expressed their sympathy and promised to wait for the police to investigate before spreading any rumors.
As people gradually dispersed, Stanley approached Cecelia and said, “Miss Linsey, I believe in Jimmy. He is not that kind of person. There must be a misunderstanding.”
Cecelia nodded. “Once the police clarify everything, justice will be served!”
Remington returned from outside, and Cecelia asked him, “What happened?”
“Jimmy has been taken away. The police found a bag of drugs in his bag!”
“How is that possible?”
Cecelia felt that the situation had escalated. “Let’s go to Universal Entertainment first!”
She and Remington left the cinema together, with Stanley being the last to leave. Before leaving, he glanced at the screen.
Joyful Life
Jimmy’s joyful life might soon turn into a tragic one! Ha…
Although everyone who attended the premiere promised not to spread the news, by the time Cecelia and Remington arrived at Universal Entertainment, the news about Jimmy’s arrest for drug involvement had already spread online.
It was imaginable how much impact was would have on society if a super popular dual-role actor, a top male artist, was arrested on the day of the premiere of his new film.
It was like a 12-magnitude earthquake in the entertainment industry!
Online news comments exploded, and Jimmy’s fans refused to believe it.
“Our idol couldn’t possibly be involved in drugs!”
“No way! Impossible! My idol would never do anything illegal!”
“The entertainment industry is really chaotic! I thought Jimmy was the last pure man in the entertainment industry, but I never expected…”
The incident quickly became a hot topic. As soon as Cecelia arrived at Universal Entertainment, the first thing she did was gather a crisis management team to handle the situation.
They first released a statement, asking fans and the public to give them some time to investigate, promising to reveal the truth and results to society later.
The second thing they did was to immediately arrange a team of lawyers to assist in the investigation, track the progress of the case, and gather complete information to defend Jimmy.
After arranging everything, Cecelia and Remington privately discussed the situation. “There are two possibilities in this matter. Either Jimmy is really involved in drugs, or someone wants to frame him.”
“To verify the first possibility, we just need to wait for the police to conduct tests and reveal the results. If it’s the second possibility, we need to find out who wants to set him up.”
“Yeah, I’ve already instructed someone to contact Jimmy’s agent and assistant. The person who had access to Jimmy and planted drugs in his bag must be someone close to him.”
Cecelia nodded. After handling everything at Universal Entertainment, they both left.
Remington dropped Cecelia off in the Nelson family before going to the police station to gather information in person.
The situation escalated overnight. The next day, in a high-end private apartment, Petunia woke up in Stanley’s arms. They were not only allies but also bedmates.
Seeing the development of the news online, Petunia asked, “Are you satisfied now?”
“Satisfied! Of course, I am! Watching the person I hate the most fall from grace and into the abyss, there is nothing more satisfying!”
“You need to act quickly too. Remington will undoubtedly be busy with Jimmy’s situation, and Cecelia will be occupied with the new product launch. This is your opportunity.”
Petunia got up. The Taylor Group was hosting a press conference today to explain the issues regarding the selection of the National Children’s Piano Competition.
The press conference of the Taylor Group was held on time, but the journalists who attended were not from mainstream media, but rather from small-scale media outlets. Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
Now, mainstream media were all interviewing the Jimmy incident.
This showed that after the incident involving Jimmy came to light, the attention she attracted from the National Children’s Piano Competition quickly faded away, and almost no one was paying attention to it anymore.
During the press conference, Petunia lightly explained the incident involving the piano competition judges and mainly focused on promoting the new product launch. The official announcement would be on Tuesday, the same day as Universal Entertainment.
……
The news about Jimmy’s drug involvement was still receiving attention, and netizens were starting to criticize and boycott him.
Jimmy’s activities and endorsements had also been affected, not only causing problems for the release of his new film but also leading to various brand partners terminating their contracts.
This might be the biggest and darkest scandal that Jimmy had faced since his debut. If not handled properly, it could completely ruin his career, and he might not be able to escape legal consequences.
Currently, Remington had learned from his lawyer that the situation was extremely unfavorable for Jimmy. Firstly, the police found drugs in Jimmy’s bag, and then they also found drugs at his residence.

However, the biggest advantage was that the police conducted a urine test on Jimmy, and all three test results were negative, which proved that he had not used drugs.
Jimmy’s agent was a top agent from Universal Entertainment and was summoned by the police. He could testify that Jimmy had never taken drugs.
However, Jimmy’s assistant accused him of drug involvement.
Jimmy probably never expected that his assistant, who had been with him for four years, would turn against him at this time.
The situation was extremely unfavorable for him, and Remington, Rupert, and Sam were all helping Jimmy. They wanted to find the source of the drugs and uncover the truth.
Cecelia was running between the two sides. After dealing with matters at Universal Entertainment, she had to rush to the Tangerine Group to prepare for the new product launch.
As soon as she got out of the car, she ran into Stanley nearby.
“Miss Linsey!”
Hearing the call, Cecelia stopped in her tracks. “Mr. Wade!”
Stanley looked anxious and walked over. “How is Jimmy doing? I couldn’t see him at the police station, and I don’t know what his situation is now. I’m very worried, so I came to ask you.”
Seeing his worried expression, Cecelia thought he genuinely cared about Jimmy and truthfully replied, “Jimmy’s situation is very unfavorable at the moment, and we are also trying to find a solution.”
“Okay, if you can see him, please tell him that I will also try to find someone to help him and see if we can get him out.”
“Thank you, Mr. Wade. I will pass on your message.”
After a brief chat with Stanley, Cecelia entered the building. Stanley’s goal today was to familiarize himself with Cecelia and increase his likability.
As soon as Cecelia arrived at the chairman’s office, the head of the design center hurriedly came to report, “Ms. Linsey! There’s some news that is very unfavorable for us!”
“What news? Tell me!”
