“Ah?” Trevor thought he had misheard her and quickly asked, “Tawanna, why would you want to do that?”
Tawanna pressed her lips together, a conflicted expression on her face. She said, “I think what you and Mr. Wade said is absolutely right. Some things shouldn’t be discussed publicly, just like rated movies aren’t meant for children who don’t meet the age requirement. But while movies have ratings, the opinions of public figures don’t. Children see the things we say, do, and support. As you mentioned, some kids might mistakenly view the things we advocate as trends and blindly follow them. That’s why I want the conversation between Mr. Wade and me to be seen by the entire world. I want to urge everyone to stop creating a distorted social environment for children.”
Trevor stared at Tawanna in astonishment and blurted out, “Honey, if that video is released, you’ll be the one criticized. You’re the one Mr. Wade refuted, and the audience will definitely judge you harshly. That can’t be good for your image!”<fna3b0> Content originallyes from find?novel</fna3b0>
Tawanna smiled bitterly and said, “Trevor, we almost lost our lives. What could possibly be worse than that?”
Trevor still felt torn, deeply concerned about Tawanna’s career. He said, “Honey, if you really want people to hear Mr. Wade’s message, maybe I can just edit the parts where he speaks and blur out his face. That way, his words can spread, and it won’t damage your reputation. Wouldn’t that work better?”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Tawanna shook her head resolutely. “I know you’re trying to protect me, but Mr. Wade is a very low-key person. If his face is blurred and his identity remains unknown, the outside world won’t pay attention to what he says. You know how these tforms work. Their algorithms and promotion strategies don’t care about morality or right and wrong—they just chase hot topics. They won’t push a video featuring an anonymous person with a hidden face.”
She paused for a moment before continuing, “But if I’m in the video, it’s a different story. The clip will definitely catch attention on social media and in the news. Think about it—an anonymous person refuting Tawanna Sweet, leaving her speechless. How many people would want to watch that? The video would spread like wildfire. Isn’t that exactly what we want? To let more people hear those important words? This is the only way we can achieve that goal.”
