Female Novel
Chapter 881 Won't Give Up
Abigail had just finished organizing the clothes when she promptly listed them on the shopping appand claimed they were discounted costumes from a particular historical era.
As soon as word got out, screenshots began circulating on Instagram.
'Is Alana really this cutthroat? Selling off all those leftover costumes from the set at rock-bottomprices! I'm definitely snagging one to see if they're really as shoddy as the production team says.'
'Weren't L.Moon's designs always top-notch? Remember those costumes they did for that chaoticera drama a few years back? They were borrowed by tons of other productions and still lookedfresh. This production team is clearly trying to tarnish L.Moon's reputation, aren't they?'
'Let's see if there's any truth to it once we get our hands on them.'
Within an hour, a local fashion influencer had purchased some of the clothes and started a livestream.
Abigail also tuned in. She recognized the influencer as a loyal supporter of Fairy Meadow, who wasknown for recommending affordable outfits from the brand that were popular among the workingclass.
"Even though these aren't historical costumes since Fairy Meadow has always had my back, Igrabbed a piece from the same delivery today to see if L.Moon is up to something shady or if the'Red Beauty' production team is just being clueless," the influencer announced to her audience.
The incident quickly gained momentum, and she was the first to provide a review. Thus, attracting aflood of viewers.
Word spread like wildfire, and in less than ten minutes, the livestream had already attractedhundreds of thousands of viewers.
This live streamer was quite talented. She had a background in the fashion industry, having workedas a fashion assistant, operated sewing machines, conducted quality inspections, managedwarehouses, and more. Later, with the rise of online influence, she seized the opportunity totransition from running an online store to becoming a fashion influencer. Her journey was trulyastounding.
"This costume is a common maidservant's attire. The outer layer is made of silk cotton, which youmight not be familiar with, but it's different from regular cotton. It's soft and smooth, has goodmoisture absorption, and feels exceptionally comfortable. As for the price per unit, you can look itup," she explained slowly.
She even brought the clothes closer to the camera to give everyone a better look.
'Even maidservant costumes are made with such high-quality fabric. The protagonist probablydoesn't even know what good fabric feels like. This is considered subpar? Are other productioncrews scavenging clothes from dumpsters?'
'I always felt like "Red Beauty" was overhyped. Sure, L.Moon went off the rails a bit without Alana,but apart from some delays, I haven't heard about clothing quality issues, have you?'
'The drama crew of 'Red Beauty' is just disgusting. I'm done with their shows. If they dare to releaseanything else, I'll boycott it. I don't care how good it is, I'll give it a one-star rating. That team is justtoo vile.'
The next day, more live streamers arrived to evaluate.
After all, the quality issue with L.Moon's costumes was the hottest topic online right now. These livestreamers, who relied on online traffic, naturally wanted to capitalize on the trend while it was hot.
Then it was rumored that the protagonist's clothes were made of silk to match the historical setting.
Silk clothes weren't cheap.
Just as the "Red Beauty" drama crew was heavily criticized, news of L.Moon suing them for breachof contract also hit the headlines.
At this moment, Abigail took to Instagram.
'I didn't intend to escalate matters, but the breach of contract compensation barely covers theinvestment, with all the manpower and effort wasted. However, when the 'Red Beauty' drama crewpublicly defamed L.Moon's clothing quality, we couldn't remain silent. Selling off the costumesallows the public to judge the quality for themselves. Now we have the results which prove that thepublic's eyes are still sharp.'
Netizens flocked to comment.
'It's unbelievable how shameless this drama crew is, concocting excuses to breach the contractwithout offering proper compensation. They're practically asking for lawsuits. I've never seen suchaudacity. What historical drama are they even working on? They should just document their ownshameless antics.'
'The ''Red Beauty'' drama crew is trying to shift blame online. Do they dare call these clothes lowquality? Isn’t funeral attire usually of high quality? And what about the silk costumes in historicaldramas? These costumes are meticulously crafted. Instead of focusing on filming, they're wastingtime bickering on Instagram.'novelbin
'No wonder historical dramas nowadays look so dreadful. It's clear the drama crew's standards areabysmal. They're tarnishing their integrity and reputation. Who would want to watch theirproductions?"
In the afternoon, Abigail received a call from the crew's head.
"Miss Quinn, we sincerely apologize. The Instagram post today was made by an intern who was notsensible. Please forgive us, and we're open to negotiating any compensation you see fit." The crewhead sounded genuinely apologetic, a stark contrast to his arrogance displayed on Instagram.
Abigail couldn't help but wryly chuckle. It's just a classic intern move… What has the intern donewrong? Just shouldering blame day after day for the job.
"No, we don't need your measly compensation. Since you've practically begged us to sue you, we'llsee it through to the end," Abigail replied calmly. There was no chance of withdrawing the lawsuit.
Filing a lawsuit was making a statement and netizens were eagerly waiting to see what wouldhappen.
"Well, Miss Quinn, you leave us with no other choice. It would have been wonderful if we could havejust worked together peacefully. But you had to go and cause trouble, and now we're the onessuffering the consequences... Ultimately, it's your fault for dragging us into this mess," the crewhead lamented and tried to play the victim card.
"We've partnered with many production teams, but none have handled things as poorly as yours.And it was your company that refused to show any respect to L.Moon. Thus, insisting on beingsued. Well, you got what you wanted," Abigail stated before hanging up the phone.
So, now they want to make amends? Why didn't they consider the consequences when they wereslandering L.Moon's clothing quality?
