Lahat ng Kabanata ng Rebirth: Conquering the Entertainment World: Kabanata 561 - Kabanata 570

Olivia knew she had to step in and explain herself. If she didn’t, the others might start fearing her, worried she’d "borrow" their luck as well. She also didn’t want Brandon to realize she’d known all along that by borrowing his luck, he would suffer misfortune. More importantly, she didn’t want Elric or Benedict to misunderstand her.Alex, watching Olivia’s surprised act, thought to himself, “She’s really good at this. No wonder she’s trying to break into the entertainment industry. It’s a shame to waste talent like that. But who knows if anyone else believes her? I sure don’t. No way she didn’t know Brandon would get unlucky after lending her his luck.”Elric, clearly unconvinced, said, "Your explanation just makes it sound like you're trying to cover up. You’re feeling guilty, which is why you’re rushing to explain yourself."Lindsay, who had been about to say something, stayed silent. Elric had already voiced what she was thinking.Olivia was speechless.“Why is it always Elric

Olivia never expected Benedict to reveal everything so clearly, especially after she had silently pleaded with him. Yet, he had gone ahead and said it all in front of everyone. She was furious.Why did everyone connected to Lindsay seem to target her? She was convinced that Lindsay must have spoken poorly of her to Benedict behind her back. Given their senior-junior relationship, she didn't believe for a moment this was their first encounter. What other reason would Benedict have for siding with Lindsay?Olivia couldn’t bring herself to consider that Benedict was simply stating the facts. Instead, she was caught in a panic, unsure how to handle the situation. Then she heard Brandon’s question, and relief washed over her—he was still willing to believe her.She quickly put on a look of wide-eyed innocence, her voice full of surprise and sincerity. "Brandon, I honestly didn’t know it would turn out like this. My friend never told me any of this. You saw it yourself—I’ve been wearing th

Brandon was determined to go through with the test, especially after Elric had pointed out Olivia's failed attempt to stop him. Olivia, seeing she had no way out, could only sit back and watch with cold eyes.Brandon removed the bracelet and placed it on the table. Not even fifteen seconds had passed when someone suddenly shouted, "Watch out!"Brandon froze for a moment and followed the gaze of the person shouting. He looked up and saw a bamboo pole from the overhead grapevine falling straight toward him, the sharp end aimed directly at his head. He was sitting down, with no way to move out of the way in time.“I’m done for,” he thought, his mind going blank.Just then, Benedict quickly flicked the lid of his teacup, sending it flying toward the pole. With perfect speed and precision, he knocked the bamboo aside, and it landed harmlessly at Brandon’s feet.Brandon’s face went pale. "That bad luck hit fast," he muttered, then turned to Benedict. "Thank you, Mr. Scott."If Benedict ha

Brandon looked at Olivia, feeling conflicted. He wanted to believe her, but he couldn’t trust her the way he used to. Borrowing luck required specific conditions, and if it was just a joke, his agreement wouldn’t have worked. Did she really not know? If she didn’t, why did she ask to borrow his luck, and why did she only give him the bracelet right before his string of bad luck hit, just before the show?He felt a pang of sadness.After a moment of silence, he finally said, "If you say you didn’t know, then let’s leave it at that."Looking at Olivia’s pitiful expression, he realized that pressing further wouldn’t change anything—she wouldn’t admit it. He had willingly given her his luck, so he could only blame himself for what happened. But there definitely wouldn’t be a next time.Olivia, eyes red, tugged on Brandon’s arm. "Brandon, I really didn’t know. After the show, we’ll go find that person, and you’ll see for yourself."Brandon nodded. "Alright."He was curious to see who

This time, Brandon finally showed a bit of sense. Glancing at the bracelet on his wrist, he felt an uneasy chill run down his spine. The sooner he could get rid of it, the better. He turned to Olivia. "Via, let’s ask Mr. Scott to help us transfer the luck back. You should take the bracelet. And after the show, we’ll track down the person who convinced you to do this. Maybe they’ll have a way to prevent the rebound. And if not, the Harper family has mystics on staff—we can always consult them too."Olivia’s smile faltered inwardly, though she kept a calm expression on her face. “Great, all terrible ideas,” she thought. “Those so-called mystics are amateurs compared to Benedict. Brandon’s practically signing my doom.”Worse yet, he didn’t seem to care that she’d be the one suffering misfortune now. She inwardly fumed at how easily he was swayed by Elric and Alex’s suggestions. “If he’s going to be like this, I won’t bother with him anymore.”But outwardly, Olivia smiled sweetly and nodd
