Scandal Symbol Won’t Go Away

My Sim was involved in a scandal with Father Winter. She paid, through the computer, to make it go away and the scandal was gone but not the symbol. It won’t go away and there is no options on the computer about her being in a scandal. 
I put her in a new save as a townie but the symbol won’t go away and it’s driving me nuts. 
I found a cheat online that was supposed to solve the problem but it didn’t help at all. What can I do to fix it?
