Domination in America, Starting from being a Boxing Champion

The scene was extremely warm and loving.

Seeing how adorable the children were, and how gentle and sweet Taylor appeared, even those who originally wanted to hurl insults found themselves at a loss for words.

Many netizens, when leaving comments, switched from cursing to "so cute", "so beautiful", "little angels", "twins, how lucky", and "what are their names?"

Of course, there were also many netizens with aggressive attitudes who unleashed a torrent of abuse.

They thought that Taylor shouldn't have done this, deceiving the media, the public, and her fans, that she wasn't a good mother, and even less of a good idol, and they strongly demanded that Taylor leave the entertainment industry and go home to take care of her children.

At the press conference, reporters also asked Taylor why she had looked for excuses to hide her children, what her purpose was, and whether it was, as the internet suggested, to maintain a pure image.

Taylor denied this, claiming she was too young back then, unprepared for motherhood, and it was only in a moment of confusion that she had done such a thing,

Later, seeing her children grow day by day, she felt immense regret. She shouldn't have hidden her children, nor should she have deceived the public or her fans about this matter. She also felt she owed an apology to her children and was very sorry.

The netizens, seeing Taylor publicly apologize and the images of her crying, had much of their negative emotions soothed.

Regarding the online claim that Taylor did this to maintain a pure image, hardly anyone supported it, because Taylor had hidden the existence of her children, not the fact that she was pregnant.

Her pure image was more or less gone after she appeared pregnant at the MTV Video Music Awards in September the previous year, and people's perception of her shifted from single girl to single mother.

So, her mistake was mainly deceiving the media and the public, a lack of honesty.

People were angry because they felt fooled.

The reporters continued to ask Taylor about her plans for raising her children and what she intended to do next.

Taylor said she would temporarily leave the music industry to take care of her children and would consider her music career after they were a bit older.

Hearing this, many netizens felt their negative sentiments dissolve further.

Only Taylor's fans expressed regret, as her temporary departure from the industry meant they wouldn't hear new songs from her for a while.

Many fans asked Taylor not to stay away too long, suggesting she take only a few weeks or months off.

Despite making a reasonable explanation and a sincere apology at the press conference, and indicating her acknowledgment of the wrongdoing by temporarily stepping back from her career,

the media, which relies on sensationalizing news for profit, wouldn't easily let go of such a highly topical, controversial big story.

Letting go of such news didn't align with the interests of the media.

After the press conference ended, many major media outlets stepped forward to discuss the matter.

The mainstream opinion on the incident was "deeply disappointed", "denouncing", and "cannot be easily forgiven".

Even the most serious New York Times commented that Taylor had made a serious mistake in this matter.

She had, to a certain extent, violated her children's human rights, as well as the legal rights of American citizens, because the two children, born in America, were legal citizens from birth, with all the basic rights provided for "constitutionally".

Taylor's actions were not a private matter but also an illegal act that could not be settled with just an apology.

The Nashville District Attorney's Office filed a lawsuit against Taylor, and the court and the civil affairs bureau had to reconsider whether Taylor was qualified to continue raising the two children.

But this is America, where many things can be solved with money, so Taylor spent over four hundred thousand US dollars in bail to settle this matter.

Just as the media were focusing their criticism on Taylor, a theory circulating on the internet began to gain a lot of support.

The theory suggested that in this matter, Taylor was also a victim, and the real culprit should be Link.

If it hadn't been for his infidelity and breaking up with Taylor, she wouldn't have had to face the predicament of raising two children alone and wouldn't have made the impulsive decision to hide the children.

Now that Taylor was under scrutiny, Link couldn't remain uninvolved.

This theory also received support from many media outlets, with many starting to direct their criticism at Link, branding him a scumbag and deadbeat dad, and demanding that he also step forward and publicly apologize.

At this juncture, Link's representative lawyer, Aaron Hornak, stepped forward, publicly stating that he would fight for custody of the children, intending to raise them himself.

"Link, is this really a good idea? You're probably going to be lambasted by the media for this."

Catherine asked worriedly in the Palm Beach Films office.

"I expect that, but no matter what, I can't just watch and do nothing about Taylor and the kids."

Link pinched the bridge of his nose; the impact of this incident was far greater than he, Taylor, and Ivanka had anticipated, much bigger than the wave of negative publicity from last September, with Taylor undoubtedly being the most affected.

Under the relentless pummeling by the media, similar to the past criticism of MJ and Britney Spears, Taylor was practically the second-most maligned singer in the music industry at the moment, with the first, of course, being him, the Playboy.

But since his own reputation was so poor, and his ability to withstand criticism so strong, he didn't mind using this method to help Taylor share the burden of the backlash.

"Ah, how could Taylor have done such a thing at the beginning of the year, it was far too inconsiderate."

Catherine sighed.

Link smiled helplessly. He also couldn't understand what Taylor was thinking at the time, coming up with such a thoughtless plan to keep him from seeing the children. This woman's desire to win was even stronger than his own.
