Chapter 7

Penulis: Summer Sway
Francis stood at the entrance of my hospital room, his face deathly pale and his lips trembling.

"I… I only took a prop from the set. I didn't know it was a real blade…"

At that, the director immediately shot back.

"Our production has never purchased real weapons! All props are strictly manufactured according to regulations. There is absolutely no way a real knife could have been on set!"

I suddenly remembered that the "Beauty System" was bound to Sarah. Since it was connected to Francis's a

    The officers stepped forward and handcuffed Sarah and Alice."You're under arrest. The audio has already been verified through voiceprint matching. It's yours. You are both suspected of intentional assault."At that moment, Mr. Harrison completely snapped.He roared at them, "You shameless trash! This company has suffered losses of at least a hundred million from this incident. I will not forgive a single cent of your breach penalties. Just wait for the court summons!"Around them, the employees had already gathered, pointing and mocking as laughter rippled through the crowd."Tsk tsk… Best Actress, top-tier manager, and a rising idol—what a disgusting trio.""They harmed someone and still dared to act innocent. Shameless!"Francis finally couldn't hold it together. He shot up, screaming, pointing at Sarah and Alice."It was your idea! You told me you'd promote me and give me resources—that's why I cooperated! This isn't my fault!"His face twisted grotesquely, nothing like th

    The moment the police officers left, Sarah immediately came back to me, putting on a shamelessly ingratiating smile."Scott… we were boyfriend and girlfriend, after all. For the sake of our past relationship, please help me."Alice followed right behind her, pretending to be loyal and devoted."Scott, I've worked by your side for so many years, running around and taking care of everything for you. You can't just abandon me!"Leaning back against the hospital bed, I lazily lifted my eyes to look at them. A faint smirk tugged at my lips."Oh? Let me think about it."The moment they heard that, their faces lit up instantly. They nodded eagerly and backed out in a fawning manner.Once the room was empty, I turned to my mother."Mom… I have a feeling something's wrong with both Sarah and Alice. What happened the other day—there's a very high chance they were involved."My mother frowned in thought for a moment, then her eyes suddenly sharpened.She picked up her phone and called h

    Francis stood at the entrance of my hospital room, his face deathly pale and his lips trembling."I… I only took a prop from the set. I didn't know it was a real blade…"At that, the director immediately shot back."Our production has never purchased real weapons! All props are strictly manufactured according to regulations. There is absolutely no way a real knife could have been on set!"I suddenly remembered that the "Beauty System" was bound to Sarah. Since it was connected to Francis's appearance, it clearly couldn't be unrelated to her either.I looked toward the police officers and said weakly, "On the day of the incident, Sarah came to visit the set. I saw her speaking with Francis in a corner… They seemed very close."The director slapped his thigh as if struck by sudden realization."I remember now! I saw it too that day! I just didn't think much of it. In the entertainment industry, these kinds of private interactions between men and women are common, so I didn't pay a

    The entire scene fell into dead silence. Everyone stared at me in shock.I weakly lifted my head and met my mother's trembling gaze. Breathing unsteadily, I said, "Mom… I want to go home.""Mom?!"Francis's face turned ghostly pale. Still refusing to believe it, he shouted in a shaking voice, "Scott! Are you insane?! Anyone you see is your mom now?! That's Mrs. Adelson!"My mother shoved him away and snapped coldly, "So this is your company's so-called rising star? It seems my investment has all been wasted on trash like this!"Francis froze on the spot, flustered and at a loss."No… Mrs. Adelson…"Sarah and Alice exchanged a glance and instinctively took a few steps back.My mother ignored them completely. She crouched down and pulled me tightly into her arms, tears falling onto my face."I'm taking you home right now."But my injuries were too severe, and the people she had brought with her hadn't arrived yet.Seeing this, Sarah suddenly rushed over and crouched beside me,

    Alice turned toward my mother and forced out a smile."Mrs. Adelson, don't let his act fool you. He's just being dramatic."Then she pointed at me and snapped, "I worked so hard to get you these acting jobs! How can you just refuse them whenever you feel like it?"I violently shook off her hand and shouted at the top of my lungs, "Whoever likes those low-pay, high-maintenance jobs can go do them themselves!"Alice froze for a second and stared at me in disbelief."Scott, haven't you always wanted to return to the top? I'm doing this for your own good!"I let out a cold laugh and said through gritted teeth, "That was before. I don't want that anymore."The moment I finished speaking, Francis's manager suddenly rushed in, panting heavily.Francis's eyes lit up immediately, clearly assuming she had good news about another leading role. He smugly waved a hand."Take your time. No rush."His manager said, "Francis, your contract's been terminated!"Then she glanced at me."The o

    The boss shoved aside the crowd gathered around me and strode over, his brows knitted tightly.He glanced at me, then at Francis, before asking in a low voice, "What happened here?"Francis immediately clutched his waist and spoke in a weak, pitiful tone."Mr. Harrison, I was only trying to advise Scott to take better care of his image. I never expected him to suddenly lose his temper and shove me…"The surrounding coworkers instantly chimed in."That's right! Scott was the one causing trouble for no reason. Francis kindly tried to help him, and he actually got physical!""Right! Francis's such a kind person. He doesn't deserve this!"My mother rushed over with a hand over her mouth. The moment she saw the blood soaking down my legs, she screamed in terror."Quick! Call an ambulance!"But Sarah suddenly let out a cold snort and grabbed the wrist of the person reaching for their phone.Crossing her arms, she looked at me sideways with disdain."Who are you trying to fool with
