“Do you still fail to see the big picture here? Using your fans to target me, then blaming you once the truth cout. Did the people you mentioned suffer any real consequences?” | continued, “Imagine if | hadn't rescued you when the stage collapsed. It could have been you in that hospital bed, not me.” Harmony paled, and her gaze grew more complex.

Ask him who set this trap!” She only asked, “Chloe, have you offended someone recently?” | rolled my eyes and sighed in frustration. “I've offended so many people. Which one are you asking about?” Harmony looked at me, puzzled. “Then why are so many people criticizing you? Don’t you think you should reflect on yourself?” Suddenly, | laughed. “Harmony, you've been following the online backlash closely. But you're focused on the criticism, aren’t you? After enduring so much criticism, I'm used to it. It comes from people with hidden agendas. You'll realize that, eventually.” ‘Chloe, this is-" “That's enough!” | interrupted her.
Just then, a tall figure appeared in the doorway. He entered with a calm and collected demeanor. | observed him closely, feeling a twinge of annoyance. His eyes remained fixed on me.
| couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh.
As Harmony turned to leave, she spotted Atlas entering. Her smile immediately lit up, and she rushed to him, taking his arm.
“Atlas! What brings you here?” His gaze was still onas he replied casually, “Work. And then | saw you here.” | couldn't believe it. He had cto my ward for business matters.
