Third Person's POV

"Very well, Miss Dalton," Stewart replied.

"You may leave," Vanya said.

Once Stewart exited, Vanya leaned back in her chair, exhaustion etching lines on her face.

A knock sounded, and Vanya opened her eyes to see Calvert standing at the door. "You look worn out today," he said.

"Why are you here?" Vanya asked, glancing at the clock. She recalled Calvert should be at the filming site.

"The shoot wrapped early. I saw you return to the office and came to check in," Calvert explained as he sat across from Vanya.

Lately, Calvert's star had soared. His dramas dominated platforms, and endorsement deals flooded in.

Now a top-tier actor, his presence was in high demand.

Vanya sipped her coffee to stay alert. "Did you come just to check on my well-being?"

"I have a question for you," Calvert said.

"Go ahead," Vanya prompted.

"Do you know Melinda?" Calvert asked.

Vanya's brows furrowed

    Third Person's POVBarbara's gaze turned cold as she watched Melinda leave."Are you Barbara? Let's talk business," a man said, his hand indecently on Barbara's leg.Barbara smiled, stood up, and said, "Sorry, I'm calling it a night. Enjoy your time."With that, she left, leaving the group staring at each other in stunned silence.On the other side, Vanya received the surveillance footage.She knew these people were dangerous, but the video could finally reveal Melinda's secrets.She listened to the conversation between Melinda and the men— "playing dead"?As she pondered, her office phone rang.A voice from the LA police division said, "Vanya? We found the anonymous poster's info, but...""But what?" Vanya asked."The person died five years ago," the officer replied."Five years? Dead?"Vanya's mind raced. The video's words flashed through her mind—"Your mom's owed us gambling debts for five years!" "Don't think playing dead with a sugar daddy will save you!"Five years of debt, play

    Third Person's POVMelinda glanced at her phone while at her desk.Around noon, the trending Twitter topic suddenly lost traction. In its place were headlines about Vanya and Cliff, along with a statement from Calvert's studio.This time, Calvert had gone so far as to alert the police, who were now investigating the anonymous poster.Melinda stared at the statement on her phone, her heart pounding.She hadn't expected Calvert to involve the police!"Melinda! What are you doing during work hours?" Barbara said as she stepped out of her office.Melinda quickly stuffed her phone into her pocket.Barbara noticed Melinda's nervous demeanor and the phone in her pocket, but there was already a phone on the desk.She frowned."Sorry, Barbara. I've finished all the planning," Melinda said, handing over the planner.Barbara scanned it and told Melinda, "Don't leave after work today. There's a business dinner tonight, and you're coming with me.""Me?" Melinda was taken aback.As an intern, she c

    Third Person's POVAs Cliff reached to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear, Vanya turned her head away, leaving his hand suspended mid-air.Vanya stood up and asked, "I have a question for you.""Sure," Cliff said."Is Melinda an orphan?" Vanya asked."Yes," Cliff replied."Was she a student at the girls' school?" Vanya continued."Yes," Cliff nodded."Then why choose her?" Vanya pressed.Without hesitation, Cliff answered, "Her academic performance at the private girls' school was exceptional. The Todd family aims to support promising students. We don't pick them randomly. We evaluate their qualifications, character, and image before deciding to assist them.""But among the many students the Todd Group has helped, you've treated Melinda specially," Vanya said.Seeing Vanya's expression, Cliff thought she was jealous and took her hand, saying, "I saw her in the private school uniform giving water to stray

    Third Person's POVGiven the current rumors linking her to Calvert, Vanya was wary of being photographed alone.As she exited the Todd residence, she noticed several masked women loitering outside.Something was amiss. Cliff, emerging from the garage, spotted them too and immediately called security."Get them off the property," he ordered coldly."Yes, sir," the guards responded.Vanya stood her ground. When security arrived, the women began hurling insults, "Slut! Stay away from Calvert!""He'd never look at a married woman like you!""Go to hell, Vanya!" ...Vanya's eyes narrowed.The Todd address wasn't public knowledge.If these women had found it through online sleuthing, the Todds would face daily mobs.Their presence suggested a leak.Vanya glanced back and saw Genevieve watching from the window.She knew Genevieve was behind this."Look out!"As Vanya's attention

    Third Person's POV"Vanya, explain this to me," Veronica demanded, her posture accusatory.Vanya descended the stairs with composure and glanced at the newspaper on the table. "I simply had a meal with one of our artists. This article is just a publicity stunt—there's no truth to it.""What do you mean?" Veronica frowned.Vanya smiled. "Calvert has been acting since his debut with minimal scandals. This is merely a company tactic to boost his exposure for his new drama. It's not a big deal."Veronica paused but insisted, "I may not understand your jargon, but this tarnishes the Todd Group's reputation and yours! Now everyone will know. How much face will the Todd family lose? I don't care about your so-called exposure. Fix this immediately, or don't bother coming back!"After Veronica's outburst, Genevieve spoke up. "Veronica, this is Luna Vanya's work matter. Please don't be angry. I heard Luna Vanya was often away, likely busy with w

    Third Person's POV"What about the private girls' school?" Vanya sensed something was off.Calvert shook his head. "I'm not sure, but Melinda definitely wasn't a student there. Families at Cumran High aren't well-off. Her mother was a gambler, and they were in dire financial straits. The headteacher even urged her to pay the tuition. She claimed she could gather the money, but soon she dropped out."Vanya's brows furrowed. So Melinda wasn't an orphan.
