Angeline had already changed from the gown into comfortable loungewear. She exited the room and asked, "What's wrong?" "A news article just came out. Ingrid's management team tried suppressing it a little this morning, but it had no effect. I tried calling but couldn't reach you. So I came to ask if we should help to stifle it," Taylor said as he showed his tablet to Angeline. It was a screenshot of a news article posted by a now-deleted vlogger. The vlogger was called "Ica-rus". The first post by Ica-rus showed a few images. It pictured students wearing Oceanford University's uniform and competition badge on their chest. They were gathered on a beach while pushing through the crowd of onlookers to make way for the paramedics. The second photo showed Ned in a casual outfit, carrying a girl. She was wrapped in a large towel, wet hair sticking to her face. Ned had an unhappy expression and looked like he was saying something. The third photo was a group photo of Lonla repre

Ica-rus learned that after all the fuss, Angeline was the one who saved Simon. Not only was Ingrid's alleged sweet love stolen from Angeline by Ingrid pretending to be her, but she also swiped Angeline's credit for saving Simon's life. Thus, Ingrid was simply living off the spark of glory she had taken from Angeline. Ica-rus even tagged Norwalk Corporation's and Simon's official accounts in his post, cautioning them not to mistake the identity of Simon's rescuer while calling Ingrid a thief. He remarked that it didn't match the brand's style unless Norwalk Corporation's style was stealing other people's designs. With furrowed brows, Angeline quickly finished reading the post. Nathaniel, who stood behind her, also read through the post over her shoulder. "The account was deleted, together with the post. Yet, someone managed to screenshot it and post it on social media. And now, many netizens are sharing the post, saying Ingrid's management had used some unknown means to delete I

Nathaniel squinted his eyes. Fortunately, his phone was recording his call with Ned. "What do you mean? Are you saying Angeline was the one who saved Simon, then Ingrid took her place as the lifesaver and became Norwalk Corporation's ambassador? "And now you want Angeline to step in and falsely testify that Ingrid was the one who saved Simon. Is that correct?" "I know it's too much. But this matter happened so long ago. Norwalk Corporation and Lawson Global even have their own collaboration now. The best outcome now is for this matter to be subdued and to stop escalating it," Ned said with little confidence. "What if I don't want to?" Angeline asked. Ned was stunned, as if he didn't expect to hear Angeline. "I gave you a chance to clarify it with Simon years ago. What did you do instead? You forced me to take your money and sign an NDA not to expose the truth about Ingrid impersonating me. "You planned to use the NDA to have me take responsibility if this was ever reveale

Memories of those scenes appeared clearly before Ned's eyes, causing him to cover his face with both hands in immense pain. He was in solid denial that it wasn't him who had treated Angeline that badly. Still, he couldn't deny all the heinous things he had done after seeing those scenes flash before his eyes. He could even feel the temperature of Angeline's neck between his thumbs and index fingers. Ned couldn't wrap his head around why he would commit such atrocities to Angeline or how he could treat Angeline that way.Pain spread from the depth of Ned's heart to every fiber of his being. After an unknown amount of time, Ned's phone was still vibrating from the calls from Ingrid's current manager, Wanda. She called Ned for help, asking him to have Angeline clarify the situation. Wanda told Ned that Ingrid's emotions were on the brink of collapse, and she had locked herself in the bathroom. It was Ned and Ingrid's previous manager, Linda, who stopped Ingrid from seeking

Ingrid's assistant, Charlotte, was hugging Ingrid when she turned to look at Wanda with hope-filled eyes."How is it, Wanda?" Wanda furrowed her brows and shook her head. "I'm not sure if Mr. Fletcher has talked to his ex-wife. He's not picking up his phone. Let's wait. But I'm sure he'll help Ingie, considering their past relationship." Wanda never thought Ingrid would hide such a big surprise from her. When she took over Ingrid as her manager, she was never told that Ingrid saving Simon was a lie. Wanda felt that she was in a real jam.She believed there was no other way to save Ingrid except to ask the alleged victim, Angeline, to come out and make a statement. Wanda had just convinced Ingrid to come out of the bathroom when she was told that Ingrid had signed an unfair agreement with Norwalk Corporation. The agreement stated that if the matter of Ingrid pretending to be Simon's savior was exposed, the fault would be no one else's but Ingrid's. Norwalk Corporation woul

But when Ingrid heard Wanda, tears started flowing down her face again. She shook her head violently. "Simon's additional clauses have made it very clear. If the truth were exposed, I'd have to take responsibility for it. Norwalk Corporation would have nothing to do with it. Simon will never help me!" Wanda walked around the bedroom with her phone in her hand, then hesitantly asked, "Do you have Ms. Lawson's number?" Ingrid bit her lips and nodded, then said, "B-but I can't ask Angie to step in and make a statement. Plus, she'll never do it anyway." "Still, we have to try. How will we know it won't succeed if we never try?" Wanda sat beside Ingrid on the bed and grabbed her hand. "I'll do it if you're not comfortable with it! I've seen the contract you signed with Norwalk Corporation. "There'll only be one outcome if Ms. Lawson refuses to clear the air. You'll admit that you've stolen Ms. Lawson's place as Simon's lifesaver, and your career will be over! All your endors

"In any case, we have to try it!" Wanda gripped her phone. Not wanting to continue arguing with Ingrid about keeping the matter confidential, she said, "With Ms. Lawson's current position, it's true that we have no leverage to negotiate. But I'll try to convince her. If she can keep you safe, you endorse any Lawson Global product for free, without charging any advertising fee starting today. Let's see if it works." This was the only bargaining chip that Ingrid could currently use. "But will Angie agree?" Ingrid was skeptical. Seeing Ingrid ease up a little, Wanda quickly said, "You won't know until you try it! Give me her number, quick!" After pondering, Ingrid gave Angeline's number to Wanda. Wanda had someone look after Ingrid before walking toward the balcony. She called Angeline after making mental preparations. Angeline had just asked Taylor and Jamie to see the finance director, Gary, and the project management department manager, Kerri, out. She took a sip of w

Angeline hung up the call and blocked Wanda's number. Then, her phone rang again. This time, it was from Simon. She answered the call and said, "Hey, Simon! I was wondering when you'd call." Simon chuckled. "I mean, it was my fault. Considering the situation back then, I could only see it through until the end. But it seems like we can correct this mistake now." Simon was right. At that time, the power struggle in their family had reached a critical juncture.And now, the dust had settled. No information was leaked from their family, and the speculations were abound amongst the public. Simon's call at that moment was basically him telling Angeline he was the victor. "So, do you plan on clearing the air?" Simon asked. "Not at the moment. So long as Ingrid and her manager are smart and don't get me involved, we'll be safe, even if it's for the sake of our friendship," Angeline said. Angeline knew Simon's call was him subtly testing her. Although Simon was the last su

Ingrid looked at Wanda with red eyes when she entered the room. Her lips trembled slightly, and tears started flowing down her face before she could say a word. She looked like a fragile flower who could only rely on Wanda. Wanda closed the floor-to-ceiling window to the balcony and said, "I have an idea." "What?" Ingrid quickly wiped her tears and asked, pretending to be strong. "I'm assuming Mr. Fletcher wouldn't step forward and testify for you, given he's trying to win back Ms. Lawson's love. He was the one who thought Angeline didn't need this life-saving favor and told you to accept it, so the only person you can rely on right now is Linda, who is still in prison." Wanda looked at Ingrid with determination. "Since you said Linda and Mr. Fletcher insisted that you continue pretending to be the rescuer for your own benefit, how about we have Linda step in and say she signed your contract on your behalf? "Then, we'll have a press conference, announcing that you wanted to

Linda pressed her lips and said nothing. Her eyes were deeply sunken, and her cheeks were hollow. Long gone was her once-spirited appearance. "I'm only looking after for a few years. Once you're out of jail, she'll still need your help!" Wanda continued, "You know that Ingie has always been a kind and nostalgic person. If we can't save her, what will you do when you're out of jail?" Linda was touched. Her lips quivered while still not saying a word. But Wanda could tell she had convinced Linda. "If you agree, I'll talk to the warden to arrange a rehabilitation interview with a reporter. You can casually bring this up during the interview." Wanda was no longer being subtle. She believed Linda could understand her intention. "Okay!" Linda nodded. "I'll help Ingie." Wanda let out a long sigh as she left the prison. She returned to her car and called the management studio, telling them to get ready. Then, she finally got through to Ned. "Hey, Mr. Fletcher. Did your
