TOO-NO! TOO-NOThe loud vibration of Ethan's alarm jolted him awake.Half-asleep, he reached for his phone and quickly tapped the screen, silencing the alarm. Just as he was about to drift back to sleep, the device vibrated again.This time, it wasn't an alarm.It was a text message notification.Ethan rubbed the sleep from his eyes and glanced at the message he had received.It was from GRC Recruitment Group.The message read:"Good morning, Mr. Ethan. Due to the mismanagement of our time employing you, we wish to inform you that your services are no longer needed. You are hereby terminated from your position. Kindly do not return to the headquarters. Thank you, and of course, have a nice day!"Ethan scoffed.Was it just him, or was that text dripping with disrespect?The wording was unnecessarily rude, and Ethan knew exactly why they had fired him.It had nothing to do with his performance.Everything traced back to what had happened the other night at the Wong Mansion.That inciden

The moment Joshua finished speaking, Ethan lashed out in fury.His leg slammed into a decorative vessel nearby, sending it crashing across the floor.Crash!The sound echoed through the room."Shit! Shit!"He couldn't stop yelling."I can't believe this!"His chest heaved violently as rage surged through him."After all the hard work I've put in, these people actually came up with such a disgusting lie to cover up every evil thing they've done!"He ran both hands through his hair in frustration."And they even have the audacity to call it a deepfake!"The anger burning inside him was almost unbearable.He simply couldn't believe it.After risking not only his identity but his very life to expose the truth, a single fabricated explanation was threatening to destroy everything he had accomplished.Ethan shook his head repeatedly."No..."His v

This was the part that made everything even worse.The entire media team was stunned. To them, this was the perfect opportunity to uncover the latest developments in the case.If they could question Stella or capture a complete video of the unfolding drama, it would make an explosive story.Without hesitation, all cameras and microphones turned toward Stella.The sudden attention made Stella instantly pull away from Fiona's grasp. Her fists clenched tightly as panic flickered across her face.This was... this was completely unbelievable to Fiona.She blinked several times, trying to process what she had just heard.What did she just say?That her husband had wanted her dead?The words echoed repeatedly in Fiona's mind, refusing to make sense.Meanwhile, Joshua could feel the situation spiraling out of control.Everything was already hanging by a thread, and whatever Stella was about to reveal would only tear more holes in the fragile cover they had been desperately trying to maintain.

"Applying pressure!""One...""Two...""Three...""Four...""Five..."Inside the hospital, the doctors fought desperately to save Stella's life.She lay motionless on the operating table as the medical team worked around her. One of the doctors grabbed the defibrillator paddles and pressed them against her chest."Clear!"A powerful jolt ran through her body.Nothing.The doctor tried again."Clear!"Her body jerked slightly from the shock, but there was still no response.The room grew tense.The medical staff exchanged nervous glances before the doctor made another attempt."Clear!"Again.Nothing.The doctor refused to give up. He applied two more shocks, pushing harder each time, hoping for even the slightest sign of life.For a brief moment, the heart monitor began beeping rapidly. Hope flashed across everyone's faces.But that hope lasted only seconds.The monitor's beeping suddenly became weak. The blinking lights on the machine started fading as the rhythm slowed.Beep...Beep

Ivy nodded at Ethan's words, silently agreeing with everything he said. At this point, it was painfully obvious that he was furious—furious beyond measure.The anger burning inside him was so intense that no one seemed capable of calming him down.Slowly approaching him, Ivy spoke in a gentle voice."You are right, Ethan. They are at fault. The Wongs are the cause of all this. But you still need to control yourself. None of this happened because of you, so you mustn't blame yourself for the tragedy that befell Stella."She paused before continuing."And for the record, Stella was only trying to help you. To help all of us. She died trying to clear her name, trying to prove that she wasn't a bad person. If there's one thing we should be grateful for, it's that Stella finally stopped hiding. She stopped running from what she believed was impossible and finally chose to confront—""Which, of course, landed her in the grave!" Ethan snapped before Ivy could finish.He lifted his head and
