The Wolf of Los Angeles-Chapter 410: A Family That Loves Each Other
Chapter 410 - 410: A Family That Loves Each Other
[Chapter 410: A Family That Loves Each Other]
Before all the media outlets could react, Twitter was the first to publish the news about Tiger Woods.
The initial posts were of the car accident video and photos.
"Breaking! Tiger Woods and his wife, Elin, got into a car crash; their vehicle hit a roadside tree!"
The footage of the accident was quite clear, almost like it came from a dashboard camera. It showed a BMW suddenly losing control, weaving into an odd S-shape, then crashing into a large tree. Elin and Woods, who was shirtless, were the first to get out of the car.
The photos, taken close-up, captured the damaged car up front, and also featured close-ups of Elin and Woods.
...
Many media outlets were crafting narratives to steer public opinion. Behind the videos and photos, they added a blessing: "May God bless Tiger Woods and his wife with safety."
This phrase really set the tone, and many viewers left comments such as:
"Hopefully they are unharmed."
"God is watching over this model couple."
"They don't seem hurt, thank goodness."
However, some skeptics questioned:
"Why wasn't Woods wearing a shirt, and why aren't his pants on properly? What caused the crash? Did they do something inappropriate while driving?"
These doubts were quickly shot down by many others:
"The crash already happened, and your focus is on trivial stuff?"
"Dirty-minded folks see dirt everywhere!"
"Tiger and Elin are a married couple -- if they did something in the car, it just shows they love each other."
"From what I see, I believe in love again."
...
At the Twitter news department, director Sasha swiftly reviewed the online reactions, told her team to hold back a little, and let the public discourse develop.
Support and praise for Tiger Woods were currently high, but once the full story was out, the public's outrage and emotional response would amplify a hundredfold.
Sasha, already a veteran at Twitter, had been close to Hawkes and Caroline long enough. Although she wasn't quick to jump into every controversy like others, she learned from their ways and crafted her own style.
To her, news was no longer just about reporting but about driving user engagement on Twitter.
...
Hawkes was already back at his office in the Coast Tower, chatting with Edward and Frank about the incident.
Frank complained, "What's up with your reporting? I've been waiting to see the footage!"
Hawkes lazily lifted his eyelids and said, "Twitter has the exclusive, we're controlling the narrative. Don't worry, let the story unfold a bit."

The accident scene was now under control of the LAPD, and insurance investigators had arrived.
Many reporters, who knew the details, had gathered around.
Sadly, by the time they arrived, the involved parties had already left in their cars, leaving only the damaged front of the BMW at the scene.
A Cadillac heading to UCLA Medical Center was nearby. Woods' agent handed him a BlackBerry phone and said, "Someone caught the accident, and there's news on Twitter."
Woods looked at it, relaxing slightly, and replied, "Just the accident itself."
His agent thought the key wasn't about the news but about calming Elin. She suggested, "Quickly handle Elin, talk her into a joint press conference, and this will blow over."
"I know," Woods replied, "Once I calm down, I'll soothe her. But honestly, I want a divorce."
His agent hurriedly advised, "Hold on, it's not the time. Divorce now would be terrible for you."
...
Not far away, model agent Gina was speeding toward Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Beverly Hills.
She looked at the silent Elin beside her and asked, "Are you okay?"
"Yeah," Elin said, aside from some impact when the airbags deployed, her injuries were mostly mental. She couldn't forget the scene of Woods waving his dick in front of a crowd of women.
It reminded her of her early days in modeling, when she was one of those women, and the men could freely humiliate and exploit them.
Thinking of that made her stomach churn and her throat feel sore, leading to bouts of dry heaving.
She asked her agent, "I want a divorce from Woods."
Her agent was shocked and quickly pulled over, "Are you joking?"
"I've never been more serious," Elin said, having struggled through countless hardships to stand before Woods, tasted many slaps, and now knew her own worth.
Facing her trusted agent, she asked bluntly, "If I divorce Woods now, how much can I get in the settlement?"
Her agent confirmed she wasn't joking and considered for a moment, then said, "You didn't sign a prenuptial agreement. Plus, you're pregnant now, so that's in your favor."
"Find me a lawyer quickly," Elin demanded.
"Exactly what happened?" her agent asked.
"He threw a party with a bunch of women!" Elin recounted everything she saw at the vacation villa.
Her agent relaxed a bit, thinking it wasn't a big deal -- very common in Hollywood, sports, and modeling circles -- so she comforted her, "Don't be impulsive. It's best to wait..."
But Elin was unwavering: "Do you know why the accident happened? Woods did it on purpose. Did you notice? His car's front hit the tree on the passenger side -- he wanted to hurt me!"
Her agent stared at her, "You should report this to the police!"
Elin shook her head, "I don't want things to escalate. We're married; we have a bond..."
...
Suddenly, Elin's phone rang. She answered and saw it was Fiona, vice president of the Feminist Majority Foundation.
"Hello, this is Elin," she said.
"I'm Fiona," the voice from the office responded. Fiona was looking at the Twitter news about the accident and asked concernedly, "I just saw the news -- said your car hit a tree roadside..."
"I'm fine. Thanks for asking," Elin replied.
"That's good," Fiona said briefly before hanging up.
...
Elin put her phone away and noticed her agent watching her. She quickly explained, "A friend from the FMF saw the online news."
Hearing the name, her agent remembered it was the biggest women's rights organization in California. As someone deeply involved in the entertainment and sports industries, she immediately knew the importance of women's rights and told Elin, "What does she do in the FMF? Does she have influence?"
Having worked together for years, Elin quickly understood her agent's intent and replied, "Her name is Fiona, she's probably the vice president. I'm not sure how much influence she has."
Her agent immediately made some calls and got feedback quickly. Fiona was one of the most active members of the organization in the past six months, having helped women like Alice and others seek justice against Hollywood star Jamie Foxx.
In fact, she was emerging rapidly in California's women's rights scene, backed by a foundation, and was very likely to become a leader of the movement.
Her agent advised Elin, "You're a woman and pregnant -- these are advantages. If you face trouble later, you can seek her help."
"I've donated to women's rights organizations before," Elin said.
Her agent looked at her, realizing that Elin, who came from the modeling world, was anything but simple-minded.
After all, everyone had skills; if you dared to strip and kneel, others would too.

The quiet night soon passed, and a new workday began.
The car accident news had fermented for a while, and Twitter posted a second update.
In a beach villa area, Tiger Woods, accompanied by two women, entered a villa.
Soon after, Jocelyn James arrived in a chauffeur-driven car, bringing a group of glamorous women into the villa.
More cars arrived, all filled with beautiful women entering the villa.
The footage was edited, showing the time once the accident vehicle arrived at the villa, parking at the side door, with Elin entering through that door.
A few minutes later, a furious Elin stormed out of the car, followed by Woods, whose pants were still undone.
They got into the BMW and headed out, eventually crashing again.
The headline was simple -- "Before the Car Accident of Tiger Woods and Elin."
...
From the news, viewers could easily infer what might have happened.
Building on yesterday's accident story, the heat skyrocketed.
Twitter users immediately split into two camps, fierce arguments ensued.
The taunters led the charge: "Did you see that? This is your idol couple!"
"Between the loving couple, there are a bunch of women."
The online trolls and nitpickers refused to back down, even in front of an omnipotent audience -- no one could convince the other on the internet.
"These are just excuses. Isn't it normal for rich guys to party with a bunch of beauties?"
"Show proof! No evidence means it's just libel!"
"You saw Tiger Woods hitting on women? If not, shut up!"
Both sides traded barbs on Twitter; the buzz about the story didn't die down.
...
New novel chapt𝒆rs are published on ƒгeewebnovёl.com.
Meanwhile, Woods' agent and PR team contacted Twitter, but the platform ignored them.
As the online debate heated up, Sasha released footage shot by Renee.
Blaring music, bright lights, Woods looked like a fierce tiger devouring one woman after another.
Then Elin appeared -- a bucket of cold water poured over everything.
