Mara’s guilty pleasure was scrolling through the vitriol hurled at Ivy onlin
At first, she was shocked to see those unknown faces behind the Inte such vicious language. Just how deep did Ivy’s sins run to breed such
But over time, as Balfour grew closer to Ivy, Mara found a twisted satisfact slander. It was comforting in a perverse way.
Whenever Ivy got under her skin, Mara would dive into the web, relishing how others lambasted her. Sometimes, she’d even throw in a snide comment or two.
Especially now, with her current production crew being labeled bullies, Mara was smug.
A woman like Ivy, with such a questionable character, and her friends couldn’t amount to anything good, could they?
Discussions about the drama on set were rampant, and with a simple refresh, Mara could feast on the latest insults aimed at Ivy.
“Could a newbie actress like Ivy really have landed a spot in Colton’s crew all on her own?” The post sparked a myriad of reactions. Ivy being cast as the lead in a Colton film from the get-go had many in disbelief. They couldn’t fathom why the esteemed Director Colton, after preparing a script for so long, would risk it all on a greenhorn actress.
“Isn’t her background and the clout of her family an open secret by now?” someone commented.
Totally agree. Ivy’s pretty and decent at acting, but without that family of hers pulling strings, how would she ever audition for Colton?”
Mara seethed with envy reading such remarks. Why did Ivy get to be the muse of such a revered director? Her luck just seemed too good to be true!
But deep down, Mara believed that without Balfour’s influence, Ivy would be nothing.
And there Ivy was, at home, constantly harping on about heading to set, as if she were some big shot.
Some actresses should really keep their egos in check and not let their family connections dictate their behavior on set,” Mara typed with self-righteous indignation, her ambiguous tone designed to sow doubt.
Surs enough, people were biting. “You seem to know quite a bit. This bullying label on the Werewas oud. Colton’s sets were never like this before. Clearly, the problem started with the

such rumors. Now, with her onboard, the drama was incessant, constantly trending online, a clear indicator of where the trouble lay.
“If Colton wants to save his film, he should cut ties now and recast the lead. If he does, l’a still be willing to give the movie a shot at the theaters. It’s been years since a Colton film, and I’m eager to see one!”
Many shared this sentiment, yet some deemed it wishful thinking.
“Come on, with the power of the Howard family behind her, who believes Ivy would be replaced? A clarification statement is probably on its way. Let’s not be swayed by the
media circus.”
They warned each other not to fall for Ivy’s inevitable whitewashing.
Eventually, even Mara grew bored with the banter. Many were just speculating about Ivy’s life, clueless about the true reach of the Howard family, concocting wild stories.
But Mara pitied them; they were people who’d never understand or touch that echelon of society, left only with their imaginations to guide them.
