Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRegretless had a massive fanbase; almost all of Rafael's fans were also die-hard Regretless supporters. When they saw the video, they collectively lost it, blasting Flora online. Within just two or three hours of the video's release, it had racked up hundreds of thousands of comments—all slamming Flora as a plagiarist.
"Flora, what the heck is going on?" Cynthia was beside herself with worry. She was just as shocked when she saw the dance video because it was way too similar! If it had been anyone else, she would've been furiously typing away, calling out the plagiarism. But she knew Flora would never do such a thing. If Flora said it was her original work, then it had to be. Still, they needed an explanation for the video! "Flora, we all believe in you. You'd never plagiarize. But why are the two dances so similar?" Eilies also looked distressed. This wasn't strivial matter. The fans of Regretless and Rafael alone could drown Flora with their spit. Not to mention Flora had just sold the dance copyright for fifty million. If this got linked to plagiarism, the compensation alone would be a killer, not to mention a potential lawsuit. "Don't panic," Flora said soothingly, seeing them almost freaking out.
Eilies and Cynthia were frustrated with her laid-back attitude. How could she not panic? Things were dire, yet she seemed so indifferent. Did she even realize the severity of the situation? "If you know I didn't plagiarize, what's there to worry about?" Flora said, curving her lips into a confident smile. "Trust me, it'll be fine." Seeing Flora's calm and collected demeanor, Eilies and Cynthia felt a bit of their panic subside. Right, Flora always managed to turn things around; this twould be no different. But they still couldn't shake off their unease.
Flora took out her phone and checked Twitter. Most of the comments were bashing her, but she ignored them. Netizens were furious, leaving messages on the National Dance Association's Twitter, demanding they sue Flora. The Association had yet to make a statement.

Rafael had posted on Twitter half an hour ago, standing by Flora, denying the plagiarism. The moment the tweet went out, it was met with backlash from all the fans! - Without Regretless, where would you be today? - Are you blind? The dance moves in the video between Flora and Regretless are practically copy-paste. How can you shamelessly say there was no plagiarism? - Did you feed your conscience to the dogs? Betraying your brother for a woman? - Fine, go be with your Flora! Scum! Get out of the entertainment industry! - Unfollowing. Years of adoration fed to the dogs. Lettell you, Rafael, without Regretless you are nothing.
- Flora dares to sell original copyright while plagiarizing? She might end up in jail, and you like her so much, why don't you join her!
Fans unfollowing and backlash were the most terrifying, with each comment harsher than Enwent to the cast. They accounts of brands, asking them to terminate their contracts with Rafael. A few smaller brands, eager for attention, had already dropped Rafael.
