Zoey just wanted to stand at the top of the world and would stop at nothing to achieve her goal. She did not do anything wrong. Why was everyone just focusing on Daisie? Why did no one see her efforts? Everyone in the entertainment industry was a profit-seeker, and she was just one of them. She wanted to get a share of the pie. She was ambitious. She did not do anything wrong, but she was just a victim of power in the end.She hated this world for its unfairness. Suddenly, she saw a pair of scissors on the table. When Zephir turned around, she dashed toward the table and picked up the scissor.When Zephir heard the commotion and turned around, Zoey charged at him and plunged the scissor deep into his stomach.This was something he did not expect, and his eyes were filled with shock.Zoey looked at him and grinned menacingly. “Since you all want to destroy me, I’ll bring you all down to hell with me!’Zephir’s assistant heard a thump from the office and felt something was not
“Zephir!”It was only then Patricia and Alexander arrived. Francisco and Naomi came with them as well.When Patricia saw Leah, she hurriedly walked up to her and asked, “Leah, how is Zephir, and what the hell happened?”“Relax, Ms. Gosling,” Leah comforted. “Zephir is still inside the operating room. I'm sure he'll be fine. As for what happened, we'll have to wait until he wakes up.”Patricia covered her mouth and sobbed. Alexander grabbed her into his arms and said, “Don't worry. Our son will be alright.”“I told him that he shouldn’t join the entertainment industry, but he didn’t listen!” Patricia was devastated when she learned what had happened to her son. She was once a famous actress in the entertainment industry as well, so she knew better than anyone else how dangerous it was in the entertainment industry.Suddenly, she noticed Daisie, and her expression changed slightly. “It’s you.”“Mrs. Gosling, it has been a long time.” Daisie nodded and greeted her out of politeness
Nollace raised his gaze and watched as Daisie walked toward him step by step and plunged herself into his arms.Nollace froze slightly in place, lowered his gaze, and asked with a hoarse voice, “What’s wrong?”She shook her head and pressed her cheek against his warm chest. “He’s fine. Let’s go already.”Nollace stretched out his arms to hug her, kissed her forehead, and sneered. “You’re so clingy.”Daisie looked up at him and squinted as she smiled. “Are you saying that you dislike this personality of mine?”He smiled. “Nope.”A few days later, the police confirmed that Zoey had committed the crime of intentional injury and issued an arrest warrant for her. More than half of Zoey’s fans unfollowed her, leaving only some stubborn fans who were still whitewashing their idol.However, Zoey committed a crime and was officially banned by the entertainment industry. Now that she was evading the police, it would be almost impossible for her to recover from this mess in the future.In
“I’ve been forced into doing so too.” Zoey took off her mask and looked at the terrible environment. “How are you willing to live in this kind of place?”“Otherwise?” Tiffany gave off a smirk and spread her hands. “Can you go against those capitalists and beat them back in Bassburgh?”“Don’t you hate Daisie too?” Zoey walked up to her and propped her hands against the surface of the table. “If it wasn’t for them, you wouldn’t even end up in this rotting place today. So how about we join forces?”Tiffany took a glance at Zoey. “You want us to join forces? What can you, a wanted criminal, contribute to this proposal of yours?”“I have nothing left, so I’m not afraid of anything. I know you were used by Zephir Gosling too, and I stabbed him. Consider that a thing that I did to avenge you.”‘I heard about what happened to Tiffany back then. Although Tiffany seems to be the one who wanted to sabotage Nollace, Zephir was the actual mastermind who came up with the whole scheme behind the
That martial arts training center was located in the center of the city, close to the commercial region that was only blocks away from the administrative and financial areas. The monthly rent of the properties in that area was not cheap—it would cost at least $70,000 per month.Cameron snapped her fingers. “How about I go and talk with the owner?”Daisie was surprised, and it took her quite some time to understand what was on Cameron’s mind. “Are you telling me that you’re interested in that training center?”Cameron raised her eyebrows. “You’re right.”Cameron and Daisie parked outside the training center and got out of the car. At this time, the door of the martial arts training center was tightly closed. It felt rather desolate, and very few people were in the hall.The two opened the door and stepped into the training center. A cleaner was the only person there, mopping the floor. When she noticed the two ladies, she looked at them. “Are you here for someone?”Daisie asked, “
Cameron slightly raised her eyebrows, and her smile intensified. “So, are you saying that your grandmaster is someone who can provide me with a decent challenge?”She seemed to have a keen intuition for martial arts experts. The grandmaster behind this fellow was definitely not some random martial arts practitioner.“That’s another reason for me to meet him.”Just as Cameron was about to walk up to the disciple, she suddenly sensed the strong killing intent coming from the shadows. She immediately stopped moving forward and turned to look at the group of people standing across from the attic.Their clothes were not the same as that of the martial arts disciple, and Cameron had not seen their faces in the martial arts training center so far.At first glance, their black uniforms looked familiar, and Cameron felt like she had seen them somewhere before this.“Dylan, you shouldn’t be so rude to our guests.” A figure came down from upstairs. The man was standing against the light, an
“As for what happened last time, Conroy brought it on himself. Naturally, I don’t care about that matter, but...” Nick looked at Cameron, walked toward her, and stopped in front of her. “It’s about time for us to resolve the grievances between us in one go?”Cameron lifted her gaze and looked at him. “How do you plan to resolve it?”Nick leaned over and approached her with a profound smirk. “I wonder if your skills have improved, I would like to get into the ring with you once again.”…After Daisie left the training center, she called Waylon and told him about Cameron’s decision to stay back in that place because she was worried about her.Upon hearing that, the pen in Waylon’s hand stopped writing. “Are you saying the owner of the martial arts training center holds some sort of grudge against Cameron?”“Probably. I can feel it.” Daisie lowered her gaze. “Waylon, I’m very worried about Cameron. No matter how strong Cameron is, the opponent doesn’t seem to be some random weakling
“Who told you that I’m someone who won’t admit defeat? I admit that Mr. Wickam is a decent match, so as the saying goes, all is fair when it comes to war. Mr. Wickam should know this too, shouldn’t he?” Cameron responded to Dylan's accusation with confidence.Nick stood up slowly, covered his face with his palms, and chuckled after a short while. “I didn’t expect you to still be as cunning as ever. You even turned to this kind of trick.”Cameron stroked her sleeves unconcernedly, “I used to look down upon the usage of such tactics, but people change. I can only say that you’ve underestimated your foe.”Dylan was trembling with anger. “Y-You’re really shameless.”She sneered. “Shameless people are the invincible ones in the world.”‘Anyway, I learned it from Wayne.’“You—”Nick raised his hand to interrupt Dylan’s sentence, glanced at Cameron, and laughed. “You’re right. I underestimated my enemy and gave you a chance to play dirty.”“Then can we leave our grievances behind alre
