last update Last Updated: 2024-01-31 20:36:52
My foolish sister had once again brought up my unpleasant past.

I had initially aspired to become a successful academic researcher, but I couldn't bear the hardships that came with it. Spending my days surrounded by plants, I found myself teetering on the edge of depression.

However, my family had invested so much in my education, and it would have been a disappointment if I didn't complete my degree.

Little did I know that I would be unlucky enough to encounter Cecilia Morgan during my graduate studies.

I couldn't comprehend how such a young woman could achieve her current status. She might have resorted to improper means.

She was undeniably attractive, so it was unsurprising for her to be popular among researchers, given the gender imbalance in the field.

But we were no different—she relied on her looks, while I relied on money. Why must she target me specifically?

    As I exited my vegetable greenhouse as usual, I suddenly found myself face-to-face with a group of people. Specifically, it was a woman accompanied by several crew members with filming equipment."Excuse me, could I hide in your greenhouse for a while? We're shooting a show and I'm the only one left on my team. I am the team's last hope!" the woman stated without waiting for my permission and attempted to enter the greenhouse while crouching. I immediately seized her and pulled her back. "I'm sorry, but you cannot enter. The vegetable seeds inside are extremely valuable." After I locked the gate, a hint of annoyance appeared in that woman's eyes, yet she didn't lose her composure."Ma’am, I implore you to allow me inside! If I fail this mission, there won't be any ingredients for making tonight's dinner."I had been informed earlier that a production crew would be filming a variety show around. However, I didn't pay much attention to this notice, and I certainly didn't expect them to

Considering their shared abhorrent behaviors, it was unsurprising that they were related.I recalled the incident when I had exposed Vera's academic fraud, resulting in her degree being revoked.

Name your price, and I'll compensate you accordingly!"I was slightly taken aback. Did Vera not recognize me? When I had exposed her scientific fraud back then, she pleaded for forgiveness,

    These people clearly didn't expect me to be so disrespectful and were stunned for a moment. As for the camera, it didn't suffer any major damage because someone protected it in time. At most, it just had a small scratch on the side.However, this incident caused quite a stir among the celebrities present, particularly Anita. She gasped, her hand instinctively flying to cover her trembling lips as a piercing scream escaped her. "Oh my god, our camera! Quickly go check if it's broken. The director went to great lengths to get it."I couldn't help but admire her exaggerated acting skills, as if she had rehearsed the scene countless times beforehand. Even as she ran over, she clenched her fists, swayed from side to side, and took small, high-stepping kicks. Despite her earnest efforts to run, her movements appeared rather clumsy. I was amazed at how she managed to stumble every step, as if it were pre-planned for a video recording where each frame was perfectly timed.Furthermore, I st

However, on the very night of the gathering, Anita and Vera decided to ride on the wave of popularity and brought the entire film crew to my doorstep.The director of this variety show was a minor figure, and meeting the esteemed actor Enoch was an incredible honor for him. Upon learning about Anita's chance encounter with Enoch and their plan to have a meal together, they quickly arrived.A large table and small stools were set up, blocking the entrance to my house. On top of the table, there was a spread of barbecue, pizzas and burgers, along with an array of assorted snacks. It was clear that none of these were suitable for an elderly guest like Enoch.Seeing them obstructing my home, I became somewhat angry and confronted the director. "Sir, while I don't mind you filming here, I must ask why you feel entitled to block my front door like this?"On both sides

    Chapter 5 CompensationThere were very few plants in this experimental field due to the high levels of salinity and alkalinity. The film crew saw potential in this vacant piece of land as a filming location and came up with an idea to task celebrities with the challenge of transporting sand for their set. The task involved running back and forth on the ridges that had naturally formed over the years.When I heard this, I immediately refused their request. "No, you can't step on this land, let alone transport sand on it."If they simply stepped on the land, I might have reluctantly accepted it, but transporting sand had no room for negotiation, for it would require significant time and effort to restore the land for future use.However, the film crew ignored my objections. They attempted to negotiate with me at first, but then they simply disregarded me."In any case, we need to use this land, and we'll pay you the market price for it.

    The staff from the Agricultural Academy, accompanied by the police, personally went to the director to claim compensation. However, this time the compensation was not just eight hundred thousand dollars."Are you all out of your minds? Just because one machine isn't working and a few seedlings are damaged, you want to claim millions in compensation. Why don't you just go rob a bank instead?" the director ranted at the staff from the Academy, but when facing the police, it all turned into groundless hysteria.Eventually, the director reluctantly agreed to pay five hundred thousand dollars as an initial compensation and requested some time to gather the rest. It was a significant amount, and since he couldn't afford it on his own, he would have to turn to Anita, who was responsible for the incident."Sir, it was you who requested us to carry out those tasks in the first place. How can you blame me for the consequences?" argued Anita."If you hadn't instigated me to destroy that experimen

However, he soon realized that some minor celebrities, who didn't contribute much profit to the company, were causing constant trouble. Their contracts had been signed solely because of their unwavering support for Anita. Now, my brother was faced with the dilemma of finding valid reasons to terminate their contracts.Upon closer inspection, I realized that these were the same individuals who had previously destroyed my experimental field.

    Confidently, I walked into Vera’s entertainment company with the Stock Transfer Agreement."Cecilia Morgan, I didn’t expect to see you again. What brings you here? To laugh at me?" Vera said mockingly.I placed the Stock Transfer Agreement in front of her. Vera picked it up and glanced through it, instantly becoming infuriated."Are you kidding me? How did you get hold of these shares? Where did you steal them from?" she exclaimed angrily.I sneered and replied, "You understand company management better than I do. Do you think this kind of document can be stolen?"Vera was filled with anger and frustration, causing her to tear the document into countless pieces and throw them onto the ground."It doesn't matter. This is just a copy, and I can bring you a whole pile," I calmly remarked."Cecilia Morgan, why are you always against me? What have I done to offend you? Are you determined to completely ruin me?"At this point, I became furious and slammed the table, standing up."I didn't ta
