Max strode out of his office, twirling a pen between his fingers as he passed by two other familiar agents. But to his surprise, they suddenly turned and called out to him, "Agent Norman.""Good afternoon. Are you going down to the cafeteria too?" One of them asked, and he looked at them in mild confusion. Usually, no one paid attention to him, and he was beginning to get used to thinking only him who worked in the company, but they actually took the initiative to talk to him today? What a surprise!So he didn't ignore them like he normally would and nodded, walking over to them. "Good morning. Yes, I am.""Oh!" He laughed and nudged his partner. "Let's go, together then."So they entered the elevator together, and Max stood at the bag, leaning on the elevator wall casually while the other two discussed amongst themselves. Eventually, they seemed to recall he was with them, and one of them turned to him and sheepishly introduced himself, "By the way, I'm Jason, and this is my friend

Day of the livecast … Apex Villa Noah was slouched on the sofa staring intently at the remote in his hand while his assistant, Jasper, was at a far corner of the room, peeking at him while on a call. “Lauren, he has been staring at the remote for thirty minutes straight,” He muttered into the phone. “The live cast won’t begin until thirty minutes later, and the way he’s acting already made the atmosphere strange. Even I feel as though I’m the one on trial.” “Stop joking around and collect the remote from him. Take away everything he could use to get on the internet and leave only the lights on. I’ll be there in like thirty minutes.” Lauren responded. Jasper seemed taken aback when he heard that, and he murmured, “But, you promised him that you’ll let him listen in.” “I’d rather he doesn’t die of heart attack than keep such a lousy promise.” She retorted. “Just do as I say. With what happened last night, I don’t think we can recover from this.” “Okay, Lauren.” He had no choice b

In Apex Villa, Lauren and Jasper were on the verge of coughing up blood in anger, seeing this show of righteousness. They were shamelessly framing him and manipulating the public. Now, not only Richard was speaking but a reporter well known for digging entertainment scandals.They had not expected the other party to hire such a troublemaker. He had acted the same way the day he said Noah apparently beat him up, appearing out of nowhere, pestering him and calling him names. What finally broke the camels back for Noah was when he made an explicit statement regarding Noah's late mother, and the latter smashed his camera in anger. But even that was Photoshopped like he was beaten up. And Noah kept being dragged into their frame up. It seemed they were bent on ruining him and Dawn Entertainment.Lauren looked toward Noah to see his reaction, but to her surprise, he didn't seem really bothered by the accusation. Instead, his gaze was searching through the faces of everyone as though he was

XL Grand HotelThe event had reached its climax, and several reporters were asking questions while Tom Harris took the liberty to respond. He was also a reporter but had taken the chance to represent the victim, so it was inevitable that he would benefit the most. He was pleased and looked Richard's way, winking at him. Richard was also swelling with joy, seeing the numerous reporters and audience siding with them. Not to mention the views that had shot up to a million on several social platforms.Whilst the reporters were still asking questions, one reporter in an old plaid shirt stood up inconspicuously and raised a hand. "I have a question!""Yes, go on. We are always ready to answer your questions." Tom Harris responded without looking at the person's face. But when he did, his face lit up with recognition and obvious disdain. This person was his former senior in Sunset Daily, who quit when he was told to fake a news report and went to another broadcasting station. But now that

Mark didn't respond to that and merely sighed. But his silence was loud, and everyone immediately assumed it really was Noah. Their hatred for him spiked even more, and several people began to post the screenshots online, boycotting him. In a matter of seconds, the keyword [#NoahExposed] had become the top trending search words."It must be him," several people commented."How low could he get? I mean, I already know he's a vile pedophile, but this?""From the timestamp of the screenshots, it looks like they were posted five years ago. It turns out he didn't just become such a person overnight."Everyone was talking heatedly, and it wasn't hard to imagine that if Noah was to appear in front of them at that moment, he would definitely be mobbed. Just when they had reached the heights of their speculations, Mark's voice resounded again, "I'd like to tell you that these comments were not written by Noah."Everyone immediately went silent, and they began to murmur in puzzlement, "If it's

At first, everyone was just speculating, but now that Mark had confirmed it, no one dared to disbelieve it. Their murmurs grew louder, and their looks of contempt grew even more on Richard. He could tell that everything he had planned was going down the drain, and he panicked.Suddenly, he shot up, his face contorted with rage, even with the guards restraining him. “Are you out of your mind, Mark? Don’t you dare slander me like this!” His voice boomed. “Why would I say that to my own daughter? You liar!”Mark ignored his rant and directly pulled up a video on the screen. Then, he said before playing it, "This video was gotten from one of Richard's neighbors, and I'd like to protect his privacy for security purposes, so some part of this video has been cut."Then, he played the video, which started with Richard and his neighbor talking, laughing about football. Just then, Emily walked past in front of them, and Richard suddenly whistled, hks voice filling the conference hall. "Isn't my

It was Emily who spoke up. She still didn't lift up her head and still looked nervous as she continued, "I made the video and kept it on my phone, but I didn't show it to anyone. I don't know how Mr. Mark got it."When Richard heard that, he got even more incensed and thundered, "You stupid girl!"He looked like he was about to go insane and if it weren't for the restraints on him, he would have lunged at her and attacked her. His attitude made her cower once again and went silent.And everyone in the audience was furious. "Shut up, you molester!""I've called the cops. Scum like he should be seriously dealt with.""What an irresponsible father!"When Richard heard all these comments, he seemed to calm down gradually, especially when he heard the word cops and stopped causing trouble. The audience's attention also returned to the matter of how the video came to be.Meanwhile, the phone in Tom Harris's hand chimed with a message, and once he caught sight of the content, his eyes glint

Several gazes panned toward his direction as everyone was still focused on Mark, wondering if he was running away now that he couldn't prove Noah’s innocence. Some even thought it was Noah seated there and stretched their necks severally to take a look."Is that really Noah?""It can't be. He wouldn't dare appear here, would he?""I guess so. Then who is that?""I don't know. He called him Mr. Norman. Is there someone like that in the industry?"Mark was standing directly in front of the man in question, blocking others' sight, and they couldn't see who it was clearly, but it was obvious it was a young man. He handed something to Mark, which surprised the latter, and they talked some more before he walked back toward the stage. It was only then that they saw who the young man was. He wore a plain black shirt with no label and a pair of crisp white pants, neatly ironed and pressed. He had sharp features and a handsome face, but paired with the indifferent look on his face, he gave off

Whilst everyone was confused, she stepped forward and stretched her hand to take the mic from Mark. He was taken aback and looked toward Max, wondering if he had somehow managed to plan this too. But even Max had a contemplative look on his face as he stared at the girl which showed he knew nothing about it.She collected the mic and bowed to everyone in the audience. Then, she began to speak, "I'm sorry for lying to everyone. Although I didn't exactly lie, I was used to frame and manipulate both the media and everyone who stood up for me."The entire hall was silent, and flashes of light rang out from time to time from reporters' cameras as they were all eager to capture what she had to say. Meanwhile, when Richard heard those words, he suddenly jolted up from where he sat, having given up fighting those guards. He glowered at her, "Emily, don't you dare! If you dare to say a word, you'll see what I'll do to you!"It was an outright threat, and everyone was immensely furious. Severa

In Apex Villa, Somewhere in between the livecast, Noah had sat up again and was now watching intently. Once it eventually came to close and the Thompsons were escorted away by the police, he leaned back, folding his arms and stared at the figure in black shirt and white pants languidly striding out of the hall without a word. Meanwhile, Lauren and Jasper were still speechless at the sudden turn of events and everything that just happened. "What a dramatic turn of events!" Jasper finally broke the silence, slapping his thighs as he leaned back in his seat. “Richard was a full-on creep this whole time? He was the one behind everything, and yet he went around blaming you, Noah. Crying in front of the cameras like he was some victim. I swear, I didn’t see that coming.” Lauren’s eyes darted toward Noah, brows furrowing. "Did you know about it? That he was the culprit?"Noah sighed, shaking his head slowly. "No. Not the full story."He thought it had been a simple case of Richard trying
