Emily had always maintained a delicate and soft-spoken image in public, and after her real identity was revealed, she took on a full humble persona. She was polite to everyone now, even to those barely-known actors she used to ignore. This new attitude made people quickly forget the scandal she'd orchestrated not long ago.

"You haven't heard that? The recent reality show is blowing up right now, a designer competition, and somehow Sharon got lucky as hell to be paired with a professional designer. Every outfit and look for Sharon is praised to the skies," the actress explained. "Yeah, and apparently she's got some movie coming out soon. It wasn't getting much attention at first, but now, every screening is sold out. Ugh, I'm so jealous," another girl added.

Emily had been so caught up with her current project that she hadn't been paying attention to any of this. "What's Nathan even doing? Wasn't he supposed to deliver a fatal blow to Sharon and end her career once and for all? Now the movie is just two days away from release, and Sharon has so much screen time. What about my movie? Emily thought.

Frustrated, she grabbed her phone from her assistant and decided to check out the show herself. She hadn't even heard of it before. As she scrolled, suddenly, a familiar face caught her eye. Ophelia? What's she doing here?' she wondered.

She clicked-on the video and found out that Ophelia was one of the designers, and Sharon was her partner

No way. Ophelia has knacks for designing? Could it be that she's not just working at La Reverie, but is one of their actual designers? The more Emily thought about it, the more possible it seemed. Seeing how well they were doing, compared to her own situation, Emily's blood boiled. She knew she needed to figure something out-and fast.

The next day. Ophelia got a call from the show's production team. "Ophelia, how's the final design coming along?" Cameron's tone was unusually calm, even a bit fawning, which caught Ophelia off guard.

"We still have a week left, don't we?" Ophelia asked.

"Yes, no rush at all. I was just checking. Hope you don't feel pressure for the finals. You know I'm only tough on you because I have such high hopes for you," Cameron explained. ng out o

Ophelia was confused. She didn't respond to Cameron right away. Instead, she hung up and opened Twitter. Right there in the trending topics, she saw it:
