Leila's face turned beet red with anger as she stepped forward, "You're really lucky to be alive, aren't you? That person stabbed you so many times,why didn't they finish the job?"

Amelia ignored her and uploaded the recording to her social media without naming names.

Leila didn't notice it and kept going with another nasty remark, "That day,were you trying to use your injury to make Chris pity you? But he didn't care at all and left you in the hospital. Let me tell you, not all men are like that..."

Before she could finish, her agent, Nora Evans,called.

Leila, annoyed, hung up, but Nora kept calling, clearly something urgent.

Leila finally answered, snapping in front of Amelia, "What is it? Spit it out.

Nora, holding back her anger, said urgently, "Leila, what have you done? I know you hate her, but it is wrong to curse her with mean words like wishing her dead!"

Leila was stunned, "When did I curse..."

Halfway through,she remembered Amelia.

She saw Amelia looking at her with a mocking smile.

"How dare you!" She was furious.

Ever since she got with Chris, with his strong backing, she had been a

bully in the entertainment industry, and no one dared to defy her. Even if she messed up. others would tolerate her for Chris's sake.

But today, her actions were exposed online, and netizens weren't that forgiving.

"Get PR on it, no, have Mr. Spencer's assistant, Mr. Jones handle it," Leila ordered coldly.

Nora was almost in tears, "It was Mr. Jones who told me about this. He said you need to apologize immediately and get Ms. White's forgiveness.Otherwise, he can't help you."

Leila's face went pale.How came?

"Stop talking nonsense!" She hung up and called Ryder.

The call was quickly answered, but it wasn't Ryder's voice.

"Didn't I tell you not to provoke her?" A cold male voice came through,making Leila stiffen.

It was Chris.

"Chris, I didn't mean to. I was just upset and angry. Could you forgive me this once? I won't do it again, please." Her voice was mixed with sobs,evoking pity.

"Apologize." Chris left her with just that cold word.

No more voice from the other end, and the phone showed it was disconnected.

Leila was frozen in place.

"Ms. Ross, leave here immediately and make a public apology to me.promising never to do such a stupid thing again. Otherwise. I won't let it go."

What a joke. Leila had cursed her to her face and bullied her. How could she endure it? Did she really think she would be scared by this?

"You're dreaming!" Leila gritted her teeth andI turned to leave.

She was going to find Chris and had already made up her mind,even if she had to cry or kneel and beg him, she would do it to avoid apologizing to Amelia. If she publicly apologized, she would lose all her dignity.

At Chris's house.

"Chris, I know I was wrong. Just this once, okay? Help me,or I won't survive in the entertainment industry anymore." Leila rushed over and hugged Chris's arm. tears steaming down her face, "I was just upset. She got hurt, and it took all your attention away. I'm not willing to accept it. I hate her."

Chris's face was ice-cold.

"You deserved it." He closed his eyes, picturing Amelia's cold and calm face.

Most likely, when Leila went to provoke her earlier, Amelia didn't even flinch and just treated Leila like a joke.

Amelia was quite impressive. In four years, she had totally reinvented herself.

"Chris, don't do this to me. I know I messed up. You promised me that no matter what, you'd protect me. Have you forgotten?" She cried so hard she

was almost fainting.

Chris took a deep breath, shook off her arm, and looked down at her, "Do you think that incident will protect you forever?"

Leila's whole body trembled. She finally got it-Chris was truly pissed.

But why? Why was he so biased towards that bitch?

"I get it." Leila wiped her tears and painfully stood up.

Fine. It was just an apology.

Chris was still protecting her. As long as he was her fiancé, her status in the entertainment industry wouldn't be a problem.

That night. Leila recorded an apology video.

Facing the camera, she cried and said it was a misunderstanding and that she was under too much mental pressure, which led to her irrational behavior.

"Is this for real? Are celebrities' emotions this unstable?"

"The way she cursed was so scary. It's over, I'm turning from a fan to a hater."

"Is it possible that she's just jealous? The entertainment industry is messy."

Her Instagram comment section was quickly filled with continuous insults,and the popularity she had built over the years vanished in an instant. In less than an hour, she lost tens of thousands of followers.

The management company even sent someone to tell her not to show up for a few days and to stay low to avoid being recognized and causing more

trouble.

"Get out, all of you!" Leila picked up a pillow and threw it at Nora, "You're all here to laugh at me, get out!"

Leila's voice was sharp and terrifying, completely different from her usual glamorous self.

Nora crouched down, holding her head,avoiding the pillow. When she got up, she saw Leila's hysterical and furious state and couldn't help but shiver.

Leila was so scary. Had she literally gone mad?

"Bitch, I won't let you get away with this!" Staring into the quiet void,Leila muttered viciously.

Meanwhile,Amelia was unaffected by this issue and was playing chess with Lucius.

She stared at the board in frustration, having paused for a long time.

He had almost finished a cup of tea, and she still hadn't figured out her next move.

"Chris didn't protect Leila this tíme. It seems his feelings for you have changed," he said.

Amelia's expression stiffened, then she nodded thoughtfullý, "Maybe."

"What's your plan next?" Lucius asked.

His words distracted her, making it harder to decide her next move.

She got up to pour herself a glass of water and took a sip,"I've been

thinking about whether I can get his sperm without physical contact, but it doesn't seem possible."

"Indeed." Lucius's confirmation made her even more disappointed, "But you can't rush it either. You still have time. I'm afraid if you take shortcuts,it will be hard to get out."

That was also her biggest concern.

"Then what about giving him a strong dose or creating some misunderstanding to get his sperm secretly?" She asked.

A complex look flashed in Lucius's eyes. "Is there no other way?"

"No." Amelia smiled bitterly, "This is the method the doctor evaluated to have the highest success rate."
