Claudia could feel tears of hopelessness, despair, and rage burst out."Two," Summer counted.Just as she was about to say the final number, Claudia shouted loudly, "I'll choose the second option!"Summer lowered her head. "Very good. Mr. Cohen, I'll leave the rest to you.""Where's Kristen? I want to see her!" Claudia shouted."You're not worthy." Summer motioned to Robin, and Robin immediately stepped forward and gagged Claudia before having his men drag her and Xander away.The living room went quiet. Summer looked toward the bedroom as the door slowly opened. Then, Kristen walked out from within."Why won't you let me see her?" Kristen asked.Summer answered, "There was no need. She wouldn't have believed you no matter what you said.""What a pitiful child." Kristen sighed.Summer didn't respond to that.If it was her in the past, she might have sympathized with Claudia, too. But she would not do that now.So what if Claudia had a pitiful past? She had schemed tireles

Summer didn't know whether to be amused or frustrated.That day, she hadn't contacted Mason much.That was just how the two of them were. When they were together, they were inseparable. But when they were apart, things would cool down.After hanging up on Kyle, Summer started to think about how she should bring up her arm injury to Mason.Thinking about it, she felt like it was just a minor cut. It would be overly dramatic for her to make a big deal out of it, so she decided not to say anything. The wound should have more or less healed when she went back in two days anyway.Because of what happened the previous night, the atmosphere on set was a bit strange.Stana arrived early at the dressing room. The moment she sat down, she heard people gossiping."How was Channing's agent involved with last night's incident?""Who knows? But I saw someone take her away in the middle of the night.""That makeup artist was obviously targeting Kristen. Could Channing have gotten his agent t

"Sorry. You can't come any closer," the bodyguard said."Could you please let Ms. Hartford know I'd like to talk to her?" The voice sounded a bit familiar.Summer closed her laptop and opened the door.Outside was Channing, the artist under Claudia, being blocked by guards."Do you need something?" Summer asked."I just want to talk to you," he replied.Summer glanced at him.Channing hurriedly patted himself down. "I don't have any weapons on me.His clumsy honesty amused Summer. She draped on a jacket and got out of the van, sitting down on a chair outside. "Keep it short. If you're here to pour your heart out, then forget it."Channing sat down next to her. "I heard Claudia sent someone to hurt you?""Did you?" Summer glanced at Channing.In all honesty, Summer had intended for Channing to be kicked out as well. She saw him as another one of Claudia's accomplices.But Kristen said the production couldn't be delayed. If they replaced the male lead now, the entire producti

"That would be best." Summer's expression remained unchanged.Channing thought for a moment. "What are you going to do with her?""She's committed too many despicable crimes with too many lives involved. There's no way the law will let her off," Summer said calmly.Channing let out a long sigh.Summer wasn't sure if his story was entirely true. If Channing had really wandered around since he was young, and if Claudia had really changed his life, then losing Claudia would have been a big blow.But if Claudia truly never turned Channing into a pawn, then it meant that Claudia still had some humanity left in her.That thought crossed Summer's mind until she suddenly remembered the coffee incident from yesterday.Forget it. It wasn't that Claudia didn't turn Channing into a pawn, but it was because Summer didn't give Claudia enough time to.Yesterday was coffee, but what about the future?Basically, Claudia was completely blinded by her hatred.As long as Claudia kept failing, th

The next afternoon, Summer went to see Lily."Does Kristen not want to see me?" Lily almost cried when she saw that it was only Summer there.Summer's expression remained indifferent. "I didn't let her see you."Lily stared at Summer in shock before she hurriedly said, "Ms. Hartford, I really didn't mean to. Don't worry. I won't let anything like this happen again."Summer took out a business card and said, "Lily, I told you before. I only care about my mom. This is the contact information of Morning Star Entertainment's CEO. I pulled some strings and gave them a call on your behalf. You're a well-known agent, so they're willing to give you better pay.""You want me to leave Kristen?" Tears started to fall from Lily's eyes.Summer remained indifferent. "My mom might forgive you, but if I hadn't found out in time, my mom wouldn't even be alive right now. I won't forgive you so easily. The fact that I've done this for you is already taking a lot of kindness."Lily lowered her head

Luke, ever the intellectual, looked shocked. "Dad, when did you believe in all this?""I'd rather be safe than sorry!" Henry then looked at Summer's arm with a heartbroken expression. "You must have been terrified.""I wasn't." Summer spent a long time comforting Henry.It was deep in the night when everyone returned to their rooms.Summer was feeling incredibly inspired after she spent the past few days on set, so she stayed up late working on her script. She only stopped when she started to feel hungry and quietly made her way downstairs.When she reached the kitchen, she found some bread to nibble on."Why are you eating bread here alone? Are you hungry?" Summer looked up to see Luke standing by the door."Yes." She nodded.Luke smiled and walked in. "Go sit in the dining room. I'll make you some chicken noodle soup.""You know how to make that?" Summer looked surprised."Back when your mom was an actress, her meal schedule was all over the place. It ended up causing stoma

Robin walked in and paused when he saw the three of them together."What is it?" Henry asked."News just came in. Rosanna and Aspen have been released," Robin said.The atmosphere in the room seemed to freeze."If they're out, then so be it. No need to make a fuss about it." Henry waved it off before he redirected his focus to the exams."Summer's SAT results are more important right now," Kristen said.Robin nodded. "Understood.""Mr. Cohen, who got released?" Summer walked down at that moment."Rosanna and Aspen," Robin answered.Summer frowned. "Why were they only locked up for a few days?""I heard they spent a lot of money to bail themselves out," Robin replied.Summer nodded. "That's good. Wouldn't want Ms. Rosanna to miss out on my exam results."Robin was speechless."Summer, you're up?" Henry immediately waved her over.Summer ran over with a smile. "Good morning, Grandpa. Why are you clutching the edge of the table like that?"Henry quickly released his hands a

The manor was quite grand. It was almost on par with the one owned by the Hartford family."Kristen, you're finally here!" By the entrance was a tall, slender woman in her 40s or 50s. She looked the image of someone who was very socially adept."I'm so sorry, Mrs. Dincht. I've been so busy helping my daughter with the SATs. I was preparing for my comeback afterward. That's why I've had to turn down quite a few of your gatherings," Kristen said calmly."Your daughter's education is the most important!" Mrs. Dincht, Gloria Nial, laughed as she looked over.Her gaze landed on Summer. "Summer?""Hello, Mrs. Dincht," Summer said loudly.Gloria looked even more delighted. "Why didn't you tell me you were bringing your daughter? Come on. Let me take a good look at you, Summer. After what happened at your birthday party last time, I didn't get the chance to take a proper look at you."Summer obediently walked over.Gloria studied Summer carefully before she looked at Kristen. "Such a p

"She just felt sorry for her sister," Summer mumbled.The phone call that morning, and the woman on the other end…She had been just as emotional as the little sister in Phoebe's story.Who knew what kind of mess would follow?Phoebe shook her head. "You shouldn't kill anyone even if you feel sorry for your sister! Alright! Now eat your chicken. I simmered it for hours.""Phoebe, have you ever heard any rumors about Mason Hunt?" Summer suddenly asked.Phoebe was shocked as she lowered her voice. "Ms. Hartford, you can't mention that name in this house!"Summer laughed. "Grandpa isn't around. Didn't he save me last time? I'm quite curious about him.""Don't be." Phoebe's expression carried a look of warning. "Wait. Mason is incredibly handsome, and you've always liked handsome people. Oh, my God, Ms. Hartford! Could you have fallen for him? You can't. Anyone else is fine, but you can't fall for Mason!""What's wrong with Mason?" Summer asked.Phoebe looked determined to snuff

Summer could more or less guess the story.Mason's fiancée's sister had probably woken up from her vegetative state. She probably couldn't accept the deaths of her family and refused to accept that Mason had fallen for someone else.Summer hated trouble. Normally, with her current personality, she wouldn't even have spared this complicated situation a second glance and fled.But it was Mason. She owed him her life, so how could she flee?On top of that, she didn't want to run, either."I'll give him a chance. If he manages to deal with the situation, then we'll continue. If he doesn't, then I won't get caught up with it. The lessons from my past life were more than enough!" Summer said to herself.When she got home, the others were not back yet.Summer had dinner with Phoebe. As they ate, Phoebe chatted about the neighborhood gossip as usual. "I heard something unbelievably dramatic while I was out buying groceries today.""I love drama!" Summer immediately said."I knew it!

In the work group chat, the preparations for the project that Anthony had stolen for bidding were almost complete.Summer and those seven experts had revised and optimized the original structure greatly. Basically, the improved version was far superior to the original.Anthony had the audacity to try and poach people from the company? Then, she would make sure to crush him at the bidding meeting.The new computer was soon assembled. After the store employees loaded it into the car, Summer brought Lindsey to buy the best drawing tablet available.Finally, Summer dropped Lindsey back home.After the new setup was installed, Lindsey tested it out. It was night and day compared to her old setup. "Summer, I feel so happy!"Summer curled up on the couch, feeling her eyelids drooping down from exhaustion.She wasn't planning on leaving yet.Because…Lindsey received a message from Lionel. "It's here! What do I do now, Summer? Lionel wants me to design a mental asylum-themed poster."

"Are they like this every day?" Summer glanced back.Saul answered, "Pretty much. You seem a bit distracted today."Summer was taken aback for a moment. "Do I?"Saul pointed to her eyes. "Yeah. They usually sparkle brightly, but they seem a bit dim today."Summer felt a strange heaviness in her chest.She smiled. "It's probably because I didn't sleep well last night. I had a burst of inspiration and ended up working on the script until past 5:00 am."Saul could tell that Summer had something on her mind."You gave me great advice with my brother last time. It really helped me ease my relationship with him. So, if you have anything on your mind, you can always consider sharing with me. I might be able to help you," Saul said warmly.Summer sighed helplessly. "I don't know what to say. It's a bit complicated, so let me sort it through myself first.""I'm always here to listen," Saul said and smiled.Summer smiled back.They finished their tour and returned to the main hall whe

Summer didn't seem to care at all. "Maybe we'll run into him again."Saul didn't understand what she was trying to say. "What?"Summer shook her head. "Let's keep looking around."Saul led her through the peripheral development area before heading into the core development zone. The atmosphere there was entirely different from the outside.The place was packed with top-tier talent from all over the world, and all of them had their own quirks.At Eridanus, Summer allowed them to embrace all their quirks. Which meant the core development area looked a bit like a zoo.The moment she stepped inside, she saw a pink corn snake coiled around a man's head, flicking its tongue at her. That man's desk even had a glass tank on it. There was a massive spider inside that definitely looked venomous.Summer wasn't easily scared, but seeing so many creatures around definitely gave her goosebumps.As she walked further in, she spotted a few adorable cats, but to prevent the cats from pouncing o

Saul frowned slightly. "Go check out the merchandise department first. I'll take a look.""I want to see what's happening, too," Summer said as she headed toward the HR department.She had just heard someone mention a Mr. Lawson, after all. And it was a Mr. Lawson from across the street, too.Another gaming company in the same industrial park. Surely it wasn't the same guy that she knew?"You're being unreasonable! You skipped work for three days straight, and HR deducted your pay according to company policy!"As soon as Summer arrived, she saw a woman working in HR, on the verge of tears, being berated by a burly man with a square face."What's going on? Why are you making such a scene at the company?" Saul's tone was sharp."Director…" The young woman was about to speak.But that square-faced man cut her off and raised his voice. "Mr. Hunt, I sent an email to HR yesterday about increasing my salary, but they said you rejected it. Is that right?""You've only been in the indu

"So you're with Eridanus." Anthony smiled. His expression seemed warm, but Summer could feel the disdain and arrogance underneath it.Anthony was always like that. He always put on an act in front of everyone."Yes." Saul nodded."I've met your representative, Mr. Simmons, before." Anthony was clearly trying to hint to Summer that a marketing director wasn't anything special.Saul nodded with a smile before he asked Summer, "Have you had your breakfast? Do you want me to get my assistant to buy some for you?""I had my breakfast at home," Summer answered."That's good. It's quite hot outside. Let's talk inside," Saul said.Summer nodded. Then, she brought Lindsey right into the building.Anthony stood in place with his fists clenched tightly after being ignored like that.He had heard quite a lot about Eridanus lately. Eridanus was working with Hartford Group, so he immediately jumped to the conclusion that Saul was aiming for Summer because of Summer's status. He was using th

Summer stayed up all night writing her script. She had only slept for two hours before her alarm rang.That morning, she needed to take Lindsey to Eridanus. It was a good excuse to check out the company as well. She hadn't been there since it opened. She picked up her phone to see a message from Mason. Hesitating for a moment, she decided to give him a call.The phone rang for a while before someone answered."I was up all night writing a script and didn't check my phone. I just woke up," Summer mumbled."Who are you?" A woman's voice was heard on the other end."Cynthia, give me the phone!" came Mason's voice."Mason, you have another woman now? My sister died because of you, and you've moved on to another woman?" the voice shouted.After a shriek, the call was cut off.Summer's drowsiness vanished instantly. As she sat on her bed, she suddenly had the absurd feeling like she had been caught cheating."Ms. Hartford, are you up?" Phoebe asked outside her room after she sat o

That night, Janice got drunk again.Anthony received a call and rushed over. Seeing her in such a state, Anthony knew he couldn't let her go home. So, he brought her to a hotel.Janice grabbed his collar and demanded, "Anthony! When the hell are you going to finish your damn game? You said you'd get revenge on Summer! Now look at her. She's the top scorer! She's an heiress! And look at me!""You're doing fine. So, you should really stop drinking," Anthony said.Janice was very pretty, and she had a great figure, too. Anthony was never exactly a gentleman. With her clinging onto him like this, something in him snapped."Let me go!" Janice started to struggle.But Anthony had no intention of letting her go. They were already engaged anyway. No matter what happened, what could Janice possibly do to him?…The next morning, Janice woke up with a splitting headache. Memories of the previous night came rushing back. She sat up immediately and saw Anthony stepping out of the bathroom
