Sonia muttered with a hint of exasperation.
They continued to discuss for a while, but could not pinpoint the exact problem. Still, they shared a nagging feeling that something was wrong.
After a while, Sonia patted her chest and said reassuringly, “Leave it to me. I'll discreetly investigate Sadie and find out what's going on. Trust me!”
Ariana then received another call while she was still on the phone with Sonia. Seeing that it was her assistant, she promptly answered.
Ariana had barely answered the call when her assistant’s anxious voice was heard.
“We have a problem. Tom was caught using drugs. We need to go to the police station to sort things out. And online trending topics are blowing up right now!”
Upon receiving the news, Ariana found herself momentarily stunned.
With a swift click, she opened the trending topics online, determined to assess the situation firsthand.
As expected, the top three trending topics all revolved around this incident.
Ariana’s gaze swiftly scanned the content, seeking to glean a clearer understanding of the unfolding events.
The root cause seemed to be a police raid, resulting in the abrupt closure of an underground bar. Numerous individuals, celebrities and socialites alike, had been apprehended, and among the published photographs, she spotted one featuring Tom, caught in the act.
Scrolling further down, Ariana couldn’t help but notice that the comments were overwhelmingly negative, with many harshly criticizing Tom.This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

“Just look at his appearance; he clearly resembles someone who indulges in drugs. | can’t fathom he’s actually an addict. He’s quite the actor.”
Amidst the stream of derogatory comments and personal attacks, Ariana resolved not to dwell on them. She promptly ended the call and made her way to the police station.
Upon arriving, Ariana noticed a substantial crowd, including several familiar entertainment agency representatives.
After a thorough search, she finally located Tom, squatting against a wall in a waiting room, preparing for a drug test.
Tom, who once stood over six feet tall, now appeared as a diminished figure, hunched in the corner, emanating an air of pitiful helplessness.
He seemed remarkably agitated, and upon spotting Ariana, he hastily rose to explain, “I didn’t use drugs, Ariana, please, believe me, | truly didn’t.”
Before he could elaborate, a nearby police officer tapped the table, signaling him to resume his posture. Tom had no choice but to return to his spot against the wall, obediently crouching down.
There was a hint of distress in his eyes as he attempted to speak, but before he could continue explaining, the door to the testing room swung open. A police officer called out, “Tom Rivas, come over for the drug test.”
Upon witnessing Tom’s apprehension, Ariana sought to reassure him, her words carrying a weight of trust, “It’s okay, Tom. Go for the drug test. | believe in you. Don’t be afraid. We'll handle this together. I'll be waiting for you outside.”
