After the incident with James, Alex didn't let herself be seen in public much. She basically did only two things: went to her acting classes and rehearsals and went home. Even on social media, she was nowhere to be seen, which worried her fans and made her haters happy.
There were still people attacking her on the matter of her being a cast, claiming that she did not deserve to be in Ethan's upcoming movie, that she only secured the role because she seduced him while other actresses had to undergo auditions. But even to these growing rumours, Royal Star did not respond. Usually, they were so sure of their actors' potential that they did not bother to convince the public. But this time, many people were really worried about their choice of actress.
