Chapter 46

Lily Green tilted her face upward, her eyes glistening with touched tears.

"Liam, you're so good to me," she murmured in a sweet, coquettish voice.

Liam Parker gently stroked her long hair. "For you, anything is worth it."

Lily bit her lower lip, feigning hesitation. "But Lucy White now has that top-tier agent backing her..."

"Don't worry," Liam cut her off. "I have connections with David Wilson from Stellar Entertainment. He’ll handle this small matter."

At the mention of David Wilson’s name, Lily’s heart raced. He was a true powerhouse in the entertainment industry!

She nestled deeper into Liam’s embrace, tracing idle circles on his chest with her fingertip. "You’re so good to me. I don’t know how to repay you."

Liam’s gaze darkened, and without another word, he swept her into his arms.

Giggling, Lily wrapped her arms around his neck as they tumbled onto the sofa.

Outside the window, a tiny drone silently recorded everything.

Meanwhile, at the top floor of the Smith Corporation.

"Young Master, the Parkers have made their move," the assistant reported respectfully.

Ethan Smith tapped the desk with his slender fingers. "Find out why."

"It’s Lily Green," the assistant handed over the documents. "She’s… quite close with Liam Parker."

Ethan smirked. "How resourceful."

"Should we intervene?"

"No need." A glint of amusement flashed in Ethan’s eyes. "Let’s see how much longer she can keep this up."

As soon as the assistant left the office, his phone buzzed.

"What? The hashtag is trending again?" He looked at Ethan in surprise. "Sir, someone acted faster than us."

Ethan raised an eyebrow. "Oh?"

"A top-tier hacker," the assistant lowered his voice. "Even the Parkers couldn’t suppress it."

Ethan’s lips curved thoughtfully. "Interesting."

Elsewhere, Liam Parker hurled his phone across the room in fury.

"Useless! Can’t even take down a damn hashtag!"

When Lily heard the news, her nails dug into her palms. Refusing to give up, she continued paying trolls to smear Lucy’s name.

Then, out of nowhere, a hacker under the alias "Justice Bringer" appeared.

Every account that had insulted Lucy was exposed—real names, occupations, even past misdeeds laid bare.

The internet erupted in shock.

"Oh my god! The one who cursed the most is actually a schoolteacher!"

"This troll scammed an elderly couple last year!"

"This is terrifying—I’ll never comment recklessly again..."

Lily’s face turned deathly pale, her hands trembling uncontrollably.

For the first time, she felt real fear—just who was standing behind Lucy?

In her apartment, Lucy closed her laptop and stretched lazily.

"The show… has only just begun."

The next morning, Sophia Taylor arrived to take Lucy to the training camp.

"Lucy, last night was so satisfying!" Sophia exclaimed excitedly. "Richard Brown is finished!"

Lucy chuckled. "Don’t rush. That was just the first course."

"And Lily’s dirt…?"

"Wait a little longer." A sly glint flashed in Lucy’s eyes. "The best performances unfold slowly."

Sophia grinned in understanding. "Got it."

When Lucy walked into the training camp, the livestream cameras immediately focused on her.

Dressed in striking red, she looked radiant—a far cry from her rustic farm-stay persona.

"Good morning, Miss Lucy!" The five trainees greeted her in unison, admiration shining in their eyes.

Lucy nodded gracefully, her red lips curving into a smile. "Ready? Today’s lesson will be… unforgettable."
