Hearing Hannah say this, Quennel's brow furrowed tightly.
"Hannah, do you have any idea what kind of impact this will have on our two families? This is ultimately a matter between you and Lionel. There's no need to drag both families into it."
Quennel spoke with a troubled expression. Seeing Hannah looking so composed, as if oblivious to the potential consequences, his headache worsened.
"The elders have always been like this. Besides, this situation is quite serious, and they just wanted to resolve it quickly, so their tone might have been a bit harsh."
"And you've interacted with the elders before. You know what they're like. They aren't bad people at heart. So for you to condone what Cherry did... it's really not right."
Hannah's lips thinned. She seemed about to say something, but in the end, she just let out a long sigh that turned into a faint smile, saying nothing at all.
"Hannah, please, make Cherry delete the video now and help us clear the trending topics. If we handle this before the elders get truly angry, maybe..."
"I will absolutely not delete it."
Cherry, having heard their voices, walked over with light, slow steps.
She sat down next to Hannah and scoffed, "When your elders came over yesterday, I believe I already told them it's called freedom of speech and freedom to post."
"No matter how powerful your Rosenberg family is, you can't control what people post, can you? This country doesn't belong to the Rosenbergs. Besides, I already blurred their faces in the video."
Cherry had anticipated that after she posted the video, they would come looking for trouble.
She just didn't expect it to be so soon, or that it would be Quennel himself who came. That was certainly a surprise.
