Having been preoccupied by the incident until afternoon, she proceeded to leave the building. She took the elevator and descended to the first floor, only to find out the building was crowded by someone’s fans. Baffled, she halted her steps and read the sign in the fan’s hand—Charlene Rivers.

further debate would be pointless, he simply replied, “Charlene is a talented singer. She would never do such a thing.” Elise raised her gaze toward Charlene, who was smiling sweetly on the stage. She, too, once believed in what Noel just said. But sadly, humans were prone to make mistakes, including judging others. “I’m leaving,” Elise blurted and immediately walked away.
