The newcomer indeed came from a wealthy family.

She had a close relationship with Miranda and had previously played a minor role in one of Miranda's dramas. Replacing Penelope with this girl was nothing short of an insult.

Nina had already hinted to Penelope that when the news broke, she needed to create some buzz herself, even if it was just a temporary uproar. At least it would give the public something to talk about. Previously, Penelope would not have stooped to such tactics, which was why she quickly faded from the spotlight.

Besides acting, she was not good at marketing herself. But now, Penelope had ended up in the hospital. People believed she was so upset by being replaced by the newcomer that she fell ill, which only fueled the public's outrage.

Given Penelope's history of quietly enduring such slights, the internet exploded in her defense. While not everyone would cheer for success, many would speak up for the underdog.

This created a wave of public pressure on the production team. The official social media account of the show was inundated with angry comments, forcing them to disable the comments section altogether. This was the effect Nina was aiming for. Ultimately, the audience would decide the show's success, and the producers would have to consider their financial losses.

Coincidentally, Penelope was admitted to the same hospital where Nash was staying, so Nina went to see her.

"You're actually quite capable. You're just too proud," Nina remarked.

"You told me not to always appear weak," Penelope reflected. "I should use whatever resources I have."
