Chapter 588 - 587: South Seems Even Wilder Now

Chapter 588: Chapter 587: South Seems Even Wilder Now

This way of debunking the rumors was believed by most people, but there were still a few who held on to their doubts.

"Maybe it was just a matter of camera angles at the time. We all know that a different angle can seriously affect how height is perceived."

South Grant nodded, looked at the time of the news post, and then asked:

"When was this taken?"

"A week ago."

South Grant then took a photo out of his backpack and waved it in front of the skeptical person, saying:

"This month, I’ve been preparing for my graduation at school. This photo was taken a week ago during the graduation, with the school principal and my mentor. Do you want me to call the school to check if I somehow managed to fly back to the country for someone to take a misleading picture of me?"

In the photo, South Grant is wearing a graduation cap, smiling brightly in a picture with an elderly foreign man.

Since he’s about to return to the country, everything has to be prepared properly. All of this was organized by Nathan Foster for him.

There’s absolutely no flaw at all; even those who still had doubts were quiet now.

Reporters stopped asking questions, and it was South Grant’s turn.

"They say the entertainment industry always has newcomers replacing old faces. Though I did act in a movie once, and it was quite popular for a while, I’m still considered new in this circle. Later, I left to study for two years, so by now I should be forgotten. But surprisingly, there are still so many people interested in me. Two pictures can dominate the hot search headlines for a week. Doesn’t that sound strange?"

The reporters, always fascinated by gossip, could smell the scent of a scoop in South Grant’s words.

A person then asked, "Does Young Master Grant mean someone purposefully framed you and stirred up the hot search?"

South Grant chuckled, nodded in appreciation towards him, and coolly said, "I enjoy talking to smart folks like you. You must know, hot search isn’t that easy to get onto; it costs money."

"So, is Young Master Grant implying that someone wants to ruin your reputation, someone with considerable power? Who is this person?"

South Grant smiled mysteriously and replied, "Everyone will know soon enough. Now, I’ve just landed and will attend Grant Group’s anniversary celebration banquet. If you’re interested, feel free to join in. There might be some unexpected gains!"

As South Grant spoke, he winked at the cameras held by the reporters.

Jackson Zane and Caleb Holt were watching from not far away. Jackson Zane leaned closer to Caleb Holt and whispered:

"Why do I feel like South has become even more flamboyant after coming back?"

Caleb Holt shifted aside, pretending not to know Jackson Zane.

After dismissing the reporters, South Grant walked toward Jackson Zane and Caleb Holt.

"What bad stuff are you saying about me?" South Grant looked at Jackson Zane.

"Nothing much, just saying you’ve gotten even more handsome."

Caleb Holt shot him a disdainful look.

Once they settled in Jackson Zane’s car, Jackson Zane looked at the rear-view mirror, puzzlingly asked:

"South, was it definitely you on the video call with me that day?"

"How about you give me a bottle of makeup remover, and I’ll show you what a real transformation looks like?" South Grant raised an eyebrow.

Jackson Zane shook his head, thinking that makeup is truly one of the four great sorceries.

South Grant recalled the last instance Caleb Holt was involved in a fight and asked:

"How’s the situation with Ronan?"
