And just as suddenly as a night-blooming cereus, the Weibo trending topics vanished in the blink of an eye.
However, some netizens still analyzed the video and the short essay.
Of course, the ultimate truth turned out to be beneficial for Charlotte Thompson.
Because the video was indeed edited, with some very important parts cut out, but some tech wizards managed to restore it and discovered that there was likely a third person present at the time.
And that anonymous account that published the short essay is speculated to indeed be Charlotte's ex-boyfriend, the young master of the Richard Corporation, Ryan Richard.
Back then, the Allen family's case was a big scandal, and Ryan Richard was even sentenced to prison for blackmailing Charlotte.
Although it was unclear why Ryan suddenly became active at that time, the fact remained that Charlotte was always the one being maligned.
So the matter faded away before Charlotte even had a chance to clear her name.
