Melody had no idea what other celebrities' fan meet-ups were like, but she hoped to give her fans the best of what she could do. She had no intention of competing with others. It was just that she did not expect that after this fan meet-up, there would be a wave of celebrities trying to outdo each other on their fan meet-ups.She was given the title of the most conscientious celebrity. Since then, whenever there were similar fan events, her team would carefully prepare gifts. Otherwise, Melody might inadvertently gain a reputation for being stingy.Before hosting the fan meet-up, Melody made a special trip to the detention center to see Thalia. She thought the last time they met in the hospital would be the final encounter, but she was surprised when the officers relayed that Thalia was insistent on seeing her in the detention center.Melody knew what Thalia wanted to ask, but the past was set in stone. Even if she regretted it, there was no way to make amends.…"Wasn't it you wh

It was unclear when he had arrived or how long he had waited, but the moment their eyes met, they both smiled. Melody ran toward Lucas, who opened his arms and gave her a warm, strong hug."How long have you been waiting? Why didn't you tell me you were coming?" Melody snuggled against Lucas.Lucas' voice was clear and cheerful. "For you, I'm willing to wait as long as possible."She lifted her head from his embrace. They locked eyes, both unable to contain their smiles."Let's go. Grandma is still waiting for you to pick her up from the hospital. I told her you were busy today, but she insisted on waiting for you to come and get her! She thinks I'm lying if she doesn't get to see you with her own eyes," said Lucas."Huh? Didn't I visit her the night before last?"To prevent Beatrice from worrying too much, Melody immediately went to see her after she had recovered, but then there were rehearsals and other commitments. Thus, she could not keep Beatrice company every day."After

[Just as Melody repeatedly emphasizes, our day-to-day lives should come first. Only when we're doing well can we have the time and energy to chase after Melody.][Got it.]Melody's biggest concern was the safety of her fans. Many of them were college students who had just arrived in her city and might not be familiar with the area. Moreover, they would need to stay overnight.After much consideration, she decided to resort to the simplest solution. She asked Paige to arrange several buses to pick them up from the airport, bus station, and train station. After the event, they would check the list one by one to ensure that all fans have safely returned home.Melody's thoughtful gesture once again made it to the trending topics, with everyone applauding her for being so thoughtful to her fans.Melody seemed to have become the hottest star in the entertainment industry. Whatever she did or said, it would always get reposted by lots of people in no time. However, Melody found this leve

"Even me included. The works I produce are for the public to see, not for me to admire alone. I want many people to see them. I also want them to see my appeal and what I can do. Otherwise, I'll be out of work. I know, no matter how much I say now, you may not necessarily be able to take it in. Just remember that all this attention you're getting may not necessarily be a bad thing. As for the rest, you can think about it slowly when you go back."It was the first time Shaun had opened up and empathized with Melody like this.'Even Mister Shaun cares about his popularity. What's to say about the other celebrities?' thought Melody. She then nodded and said, "Don't worry, Mister Shaun. I'll definitely think about what you said carefully.""Oh, I'm not worried about you. I just hope you don't get bogged down by unnecessary worries."There had been such examples before. There was an actor who had tremendous advantages, showcasing both acting skills and strength right from his debut. He

Paige stood next to Melody and reported, "The first group of fans has arrived, and they've been escorted to the venue where they can rest outside."Although Paige did not understand why Melody's attention to fans had reached a somewhat obsessive level, the outcome was something she was pleased to see.Whenever Melody's studio posted something, it would easily top the trending topics. They did not even need to spend money on marketing. There was no one more reassuring in terms of popularity than Melody."That's good. Are the desserts and coffee I arranged for ready? And what about the drinks for those allergic to caffeine?"Paige nodded. "You've reminded us many times, so naturally we won't forget. Everything is ready, and Mister Lucas has even arranged for several five-star chefs to be on standby, so there's nothing to worry about. No other studio is as dedicated as yours."Melody's expression remained light. "I prepared for this fan meet-up so my fans could meet me. Thus, everyth

"Thank you."Once Melody's makeup was all done, Lucas then proceeded to feed her so she would not go hungry. She carefully drew back the curtains and glanced at the venue, noticing that it was already teeming with fans. She placed a hand over her chest and remarked to Lucas, "Do you see that? These people are all my fans!"Melody arranged for 5000 seats as she knew she did not have that big of a fanbase yet, so there was no reason to prepare for a larger crowd. However, she knew that many people wished to meet her, and she strived to do her best and avoid embarrassing herself there.Fortunately, her relationship with her fans was reciprocal, as their unwavering support bolstered her confidence. All 5000 seats sold out within seconds."Yes, they're all here for you. You'll need to have venues with bigger crowd capacities in the future. The world's your oyster, Melody," Lucas assured her.Lucas had always been a little possessive of her, and he did not want her to focus too much on

Melody had turned into a completely different person on stage. They have never seen that aspect of her before. Each of her movements seemed to exude enthusiasm and vitality, and she was downright mesmerizing when she danced on stage. As soon as she finished her routine, she felt deeply content with her performance despite almost running out of breath.As expected, her dance routine lit up the entire venue. Her fans were exhilarated, and they were eagerly waiting for what surprises Melody had in store for them. None of them gave much thought to what the meet-and-greet would entail. They knew that other celebrities tended to engage in some more casual conversation with their fans, along with perhaps a serenade or two. They had not expected Melody to plan out such a meticulous itinerary along with so many surprises.Following the opening dance, some members of the audience could not resist expressing their emotions to the crowd around them."I'm so glad I came! I wasn't sure whether I

However, Melody gave her fans a special solo performance of the song, knowing that her fans would want to see more of her when they came there."True love once loved leaves nothing to regret… Our years by the sea you shall soon forget…"Although the movie had not been released yet, Melody's words were full of emotion, and everyone felt the same way."Ahhhh! Why do I feel like War Song is going to be a tearjerker?""You don't need to have a hunch to know that. It's obvious from the lyrics Melody sang that it'll be a heart-wrenching masterpiece. Who would've thought that Melody's first lead role is in a tragedy? It's a little heartbreaking. She went through so much during that time, and the psychological toll must have been immense! Ugh, Shaun is such a cruel director!""I'm super glad that Melody has someone who cherishes her. It's so much better for her to have someone who supports and cares for her than to go through all of it alone."That was the mentality of many maternally in

Sherman could not help but feel fearful when he recalled the incident.Rita gently smoothed his furrowed brow. "I knew you'd come to rescue me, just like all the times you did. I love you, Sherman."Previously, Rita confessed her love to him when she was groggy. At this moment, however, she was clearly awake, even sporting a faint smile on her face as she confessed.Sherman immediately blushed. "I love you, too."Rita did not stay long in the hospital; she quickly returned to the Parr family's mansion. Just as Sherman's grandparents had said, Rita did not have any major injuries, so there was no need for her to stay in the hospital that long. In fact, she might even recover faster emotionally under the care at home.Not once did Sherman bring up Rita's job, but she surprisingly resigned from New Capital Times on her own accord. It would be difficult for her to investigate cases with her current condition; not to mention Sherman had handed over the evidence to the police. The polic

"Sherman, I like you. I love you," Rita finally confessed.Sherman, deeply pained, pulled Rita into his arms. "This is all my fault. I should've looked for you quicker. I've never blamed you. All I want is to see you smile. It's enough for me as long as you're willing to let me stay by your side."You don't have to confess to me. I know it's hard for you to do that because of your family. I've seen the way they've treated you, and…"The bodyguards who had barged in with Sherman felt a bit awkward to see their company president in tears. However, the priority was to get Rita to the hospital for a check-up. Being tied up for hours could cause circulation issues, and it could be dangerous if her limbs did not regain feelings soon.In the end, they got the bravest among them to convince Sherman to let them take Rita to the hospital. Instead of letting them do it, Sherman wiped away his tears and, with ease, lifted Rita as if she was as light as a feather.Fortunately, after the hospit

With that, Karen left without looking back. She was carrying Vince's baby in her womb, so how could she pin all her hopes on Sadie? Since Sadie was obviously unruly, she would have to rely on her son.'Sadie can spend the rest of her life with Esmond since she likes him so much. God knows it had been exhausting enough to raise her. Plus, it's only fair for Esmond to take care of her since I've done my part taking care of her until now,' thought Karen.Meanwhile, the only consolation for Sherman was that Esmond did not try to put up a fight. It seemed that he still cared about his daughter Sadie.Sherman led his men to a dilapidated house. Esmond had been cautious enough to choose a rundown house situated at the end of a village.When Sherman barged in, he found Rita lying on the floor while Esmond's men ignored her. Esmond's men had followed his orders, and since he did not instruct them to do anything to Rita, they left her well alone.Before the men could react, they were surrou

Karen cried and silently knelt by Sadie's side without trying to defend herself. Sadie, on the other hand, feebly tried to explain herself. Alas. Vince refused to listen.There had been many occasions before when he had chosen to believe Karen and Sadie, but at this moment, he realized he had been terribly wrong to do that.Rita used to be so kind, understanding, and well-behaved. However, ever since Karen and Sadie moved in, Vince felt like his daughter had become manipulative, always trying to compete for attention, and stirring up jealousy in front of him.Unfortunately, it took Rita's disappearance to make Vince realize that Rita was not trying to compete for attention. All Rita wanted from him was to treat her the same as Sadie.Vince used to think that Rita should give in to Sadie more since Sadie was younger, too."Why don't you go live with your biological father since you prefer him so much? I never want to see you show your face around here anymore! As for your mother, s

Sadie was so anxious that she wanted to jump out. "Mom, don't tell me you fell for it! Why did you call Esmond? Now they all know where Rita is. You've ruined everything, again! What were you thinking?"Karen could not care less. She cried and slapped Sadie. "You nearly scared me to death! What would I do if something happened to you? I didn't raise you just to watch you die. I told you not to meet up with Esmond, so why did you secretly meet up with him? How can you ask him to get rid of Rita?"Are you out of your mind? All I want is for us to live out the rest of our lives peacefully, so why didn't you listen to me?!"Sadie was furious. Karen had stopped trying to get rid of Rita ever since she got pregnant, so how could Sadie not be angry? Rita was like a thorn in her side, and Sadie would never be happy unless Rita was dead."Don't you know I like Sherman? How could you ask me to do nothing when Rita has stolen him from me?! I was the one who liked him first. It's either Rita g

Karen wanted so badly to slap Esmond through the phone.'What good are his pompous words now? We wouldn't be in this mess now if he hadn't hit me back then! What's more, he's saying he's doing this for Sadie. But has he ever thought of what would happen to me and Sadie if he got rid of Rita? Rita's the heiress of the Russell family. Not to mention, she's married to Sherman, so that makes her owner of Parr Group too! What makes Esmond think he can get rid of Rita so easily?'Karen's breath was ragged as she said, "If you don't believe me, just listen to your daughter's screams. I can't save her now; you will literally decide her fate! Plus, I'm pregnant with Vince's baby, so even if I lose Sadie, I still have a kid—which is more than what I can say about you!"Sherman could not help but be impressed by Karen a little. Even in this dire situation, she did not forget to express her heartfelt feelings to Vince, letting him know that she was always on his side. It was certainly not an ea

"Sherman raised an eyebrow. "Don't worry, I'm sure it's just a minor injury, maybe just a finger. There shouldn't be any major issues. A sprained joint takes only a hundred days to heal, and it might take her even less time to heal if you take very good care of her while she's recuperating."Karen's heart ached upon hearing that. She lunged toward Sherman, wanting to hit him, but the bodyguards stopped her before she could get close.Vince, still worried, held Karen tightly beside him. "Calm down. I'm sure Sadie will come out unharmed if Rita's kidnapping has nothing to do with her. But if it does, then you should know very well that…"Vince's voice dropped an octave. He could not believe his daughter's disappearance had anything to do with his stepdaughter. However, he was not utterly naive.He continued, "How could a girl like her take Rita away? Even the car window was smashed. Others must've been involved. Does her biological father have anything to do with it?"Sherman nodded

"Yes, it's true I met up with my biological father, but it was just a one-time thing. I don't want to go back to him at all! Otherwise, I would've done it ages ago. Dad, I'm really grateful to you for taking me in and looking after me all these years. That's why I feel like you're my real father, even more real than those who share the same blood."How could you unjustly accuse me and Mom like that? Sherman is the one spouting nonsense here. He's trying to push all the blame onto us. Dad, you have to wake up and see the truth!"Karen nodded along, but her heart was racing. 'When did Sadie meet Esmond? How did Sherman know when I don't even know? Seems like Sadie does have something to do with Rita's kidnapping. I have to settle things and get Sherman out of here.'Karen never had the thought of rekindling her relationship with Esmond. The only thing she wanted then was to peacefully give birth to her son. Everything in the Russell family would eventually go to her son, and she would

Sherman detested people pointing their fingers at him when they spoke. He stood up slowly, towering over Vince instantly."You claim to be Rita's father, yet if I were you, I'd choose to shut up and stand aside. I can't believe you're scolding me for threatening Sadie when she's not even your real daughter!"Look at her guilty expression; it's clear she's involved. If you don't believe me, use your brain a little. No wonder Russell Group is declining under your leadership. It's only a matter of time before the company goes completely bankrupt!"Sherman showed no mercy, causing Vince to retreat with every word. Vince clutched his chest, struggling for breath.Karen, despite her weakness, stepped forward to support him. "How could you speak to your father-in-law like this? What has Sadie done to offend you? She has nothing but admiration for you. Plus, she's just a child. How could you treat her like this?"She went on and on, but Sherman stood his ground. Meanwhile, the burly bodyg
