"It’s reliable. I'm in the hospital room next to her. I saw the person covered in injuries. I don't know how it happened, but it’s really bad. All because of a few words from Miranda, now she’s badly hurt!""This is so unfair! Just because Miranda is a public figure, a single word or look from her can twist reality. Today the person is admitted to the hospital, and tomorrow, her life could be at stake. The rules in the entertainment industry need to be changed for the better. Artists should embody both virtue and talent. People like her should be severely punished!""Miranda, get out of the entertainment industry!""Michelle, you should stop reporting. You’re feeding on people’s misery!"Michelle's face turned pale. She had not anticipated this would backfire on her as well.Suddenly, she recalled Nina's warnings about valuing her reputation. Michelle's first reaction was to blame Nina. "Could this be Nina's doing?"Miranda was too afraid to check her phone, fearing the comment
Miranda was in shock, unable to believe it could be him. Her world felt like it was falling apart.Michelle, seeing her distress, said, "Miss Miranda, we're in this together now. We need to turn things around. Otherwise, we'll both suffer!"Since she had already reported the news, there was no turning back. The only option was to work with Miranda to find a solution. They needed to regain the trust of the public by creating a new narrative.But Miranda could not process it. "Everyone, leave. I need to cool off to think."Michelle, desperate, continued, "We need to come up with a plan. Cooling off won't help. We've been exposed. Maybe you could accuse them of slander, file a lawsuit, and use legal action to buy us some time..."Before she could finish, Miranda interrupted, "Ruby, escort her out. I need to be alone.""Miss Jacobs, please leave. Miranda needs some time to think," the assistant said, quickly guiding Michelle out.Michelle was furious. She knew her reputation and job
Wilfred did not hide anything, revealing it all plainly.Miranda was shocked. "Why would you do this? Do you realize how much this affects me? I asked you to take care of Nina, thinking her death could save us. But instead, you pushed me into the fire. Why did you do this?"The bread in Wilfred's hand had been eaten by the pigeons. He brushed the crumbs off his coat. "There was no transaction between us. You didn't pay me, and I didn't ask for your money. Nina paid me for your information. Out of respect for the money, I couldn't refuse.""Wilfred!" Miranda growled. "This is not a joke! We’re supposed to be in this together!"Wilfred's slight smile faded, and he replied calmly, "I know exactly what I'm doing. As compensation, I'll restore your hearing.""I don't understand you anymore," Miranda said, almost laughing at the absurdity. "I thought we were the same. I believed you'd always help me, but then you sold me out to Nina. Who are you? Unless there's something between you and
Why did she feel so sad?Nina thought about it for a while but could not figure it out. "How long was I asleep?" she asked."Half an hour," Angel replied. "Nina, have you been overworking yourself lately? You fell asleep as soon as you put your head down on the desk."Nina guessed it might be because of her pregnancy. "Maybe I just didn't sleep well last night."Angel, still looking worried, finally felt reassured once she was certain Nina was okay. She could not wait to share some good news. "The article we posted was well-received. Can you guess the number of views? Over a million!"The internet is up in arms against Miranda, and they’re not sparing Michelle either. We did it!" Angel was eager to share her excitement. "I’d love to see Michelle's reaction. This time, she has hurt Starry Sky TV station’s reputation, and she’ll definitely face consequences!"Nina's main target was always Miranda. "We’ve made some progress, but if this affects Starry Sky TV station, the higher-ups
"Fine," Michelle sneered. "Let's see who the chief editor sides with!""Enough!" Suddenly, Kate was standing behind them, her expression stern and displeased. Seeing them argue without regard for their colleagues' presence made her even more upset.Michelle quickly turned to Kate and said, "Chief Editor, you're just in time. Please judge this fairly. They ruined my work and damaged my reputation. I was about to secure an exclusive interview with Miranda, a rising star, which would have brought tremendous benefits to us. But they...""Enough!" Kate cut her off, her cold gaze fixed on Michelle.Michelle, trying to appear calm but feeling a bit panicked, she stammered, "Chief Editor, I’m telling the truth.""Do you even realize what you've done?" Kate questioned sternly. "Miranda's reputation is already in shambles. Her actions have caused public outrage, and she might even get blacklisted. And yet you're talking about this? Those inaccurate reports you published have severely affect
Michelle's voice faded as she was dragged away. Kate turned to Nina and Angel. "Thanks to both of you, we've managed to restore Starry Sky TV station’s reputation."Angel, being praised for the first time, blushed a little. "Chief Editor, we just reported the truth. As long as it didn’t affect the station, that’s what matters."Kate looked at them, erasing their worries. "Remember, our job is to pursue the truth and reveal it. You did the right thing."From Kate, they received validation.Kate turned to Nina. "I can see you put a lot of effort into this."For Nina, it was also personal. "I did what a reporter should do.""Your writing and professional skills are impressive," Kate said, appreciating Nina's work. "Keep it up, and you'll have a bright future.""Thank you, Chief Editor," Nina responded politely.After Kate left, the whole department burst into celebration. The troublesome Michelle was finally gone, and they were grateful to Nina and Angel for standing up against
Nina chuckled lightly, her tone mocking. "Your entertainment company's executives must be running around in circles with worry, yet here you are, taking the time to find me."Nash's deep gaze remained fixed on Nina, taking in her sarcasm and mockery. He replied, "It's just an entertainment company. Do you really think I care?"Hearing this, Nina looked up again and saw the genuine concern in Nash's eyes. It seemed to say that compared to her, his entertainment company meant nothing. Wasn’t the company founded for Miranda? Could this mean she was more important to him than Miranda?Nina quickly brushed aside such thoughts. The bond between Miranda and Nash seemed far more convincing. "How am I supposed to know? There's no need to say more," she said, choosing to avoid the topic. Seeing a taxi stop in front of her, she added, "I'm going home. Please step aside."She tried to pass by him to get into the taxi, but Nash grabbed her hand. She was moving quickly, and the sudden pull m
Nash effortlessly picked her up and said softly, "Since you won't listen to me, I have no choice but to do this."Nina was annoyed and retorted, "Are you a robber? Forcing me like this!""It's better than you acting on impulse!""How am I acting on impulse?" Nina countered.Nash’s expression became more serious as he replied calmly, "Do you remember the last time you were overworked and almost had a miscarriage? Today, you’ve been busy with Miranda’s issue, haven't you?"Hearing this, Nina's agitation subsided. "What does that have to do with me taking a taxi home?"Nash had already carried her to the car and put her down, staring at her intently. "What if your stomach starts hurting on the way? You just said it hurt a moment ago. How can I be at ease letting you go home alone?"His words revealed his concern for her.So he remembered.Nina bit her lip, remaining silent for a moment. She could feel Nash’s worry and care but feared it was just her wishful thinking. She had not
