Chapter 197
"I've got tons of friends in my circle buzzing about this stunning violinist. My phone's been blowing up for days."
"Ms. Pearce, do you have any insider info? Can you spill a bit of the beans?"
Better than her? Rachel's mind flickered to Stella. After all, within the Novaris, there were few who could rival her
prowess.
"What's her name?" Rachel asked instinctively.
"No clue, that's why | cto you, Ms. Pearce."
Rachel paused for a moment, then said, "Sendher photos and videos. Lettake a look."
Not long after, a video popped up on Rachel's phone. It was from the competition day, showing Stella playing the

Recently, Rachel had been unable to forget the humiliation of being outshined by Stella. Additionally, seeing
Haynes watch Stella with intense attention had ignited a new feeling of threat and discomfort in her.
This woman she had always thought of as talentless had not only proven her wrong but had surpassed her. Even
at Neo-Vespera University, such skill would be exceptional. Yet, she was sure she'd never seen Stella at the
university.
As for the Hall of Fat Neo-Vespera University... Rachel was convinced that no matter how good Stella was,
she couldn't possibly have her nthere. To Rachel, the Hall of Fwas an unattainable summit, something
to be revered from afar.
She hadn't even considered linking Stella with the names enshrined there. Besides, she had never heard of
Stella's namong those famous individuals.
Rachel had forgotten that everyone at Neo-Vespera University used English names, including herself. How could
she have possibly heard of Stella?
Suddenly, Rachel remembered Jasper's plan to livestream Stella's downfall. Her expression sharpened, and she
immediately called Jasper.
Upon hearing her, Jasper quickly checked the trending topics. What he saw nearly made him explode with anger.
"Seriously? | only streamed for like five or six minutes! | shut the stream down, and yet Stella is blowing up!"
Stella's rise to fwas meteoric. While Rachel had needed considerable support from Jasper and Haynes to
gather a million online followers, Stella had achieved the sfeat in just a few days!
Jasper, who couldn't stand Stella's success, was about to lose his mind. He quickly said, "I'll have the trending
topics suppressed and make sure any mention of Stella online is wiped out."
"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, she won't outshine you."

Rachel frowned, "But Stella was involved in sbig news a while ago. I'm worried..."
Jasper reassured her, "The intehas no memory. All the previous hype about Stella has been erased, thanks
toand Haynie. It's all gone without a trace."
"Once the buzz dies down, people will forget. And if anyone does recognize her, we'll just say she's not the same
person-just someone who looks similar."
"In a country with over 300 million people, sfolks resembling each other is totally normal, right?"
Jasper's family wielded significant influence over half of the entertainment industry. In the past, much of the
public buzz about Rachel and Haynes was cleverly crafted by Jasper, who portrayed their relationship in a
positive light to sway public opinion.
Any negative rumors about Stella? Those were his doing as well. Yet, somehow, Stella had managed to
outmaneuver the Wilkinson family's media network and released a video of Rachel's intentional mishap, catching
Jasper completely off guard.
