Ava stopped for some time, but she then shifted her attention to Trinity. Cordelia no longer received her constant messages now. Trinity, instead, was on the receiving end of her harassment every day. It was a sunny weekend today. Cordelia was comfortably basking in the sun on the recliner in the yard when she heard the doorbell ringing hastily. The butler went to open the door, and Trinity barged in with disheveled hair and dark eye circles. “Gah, Cordelia, I beg you. Exorcize that devil, will you? Take her away!” Cordelia giggled and yanked Trinity over to sit with her. Trinity then showed the various texts and emails Ava had sent Trinity these days. Other than the usual motivational quotes and messages, there were countless photos—***y photos, barefaced photos, no-makeup makeup photos, glamorous makeup photos, casual daily photos—from all angles. The scariest one had to be the one she had sent last night. It was a close-up photo of her. Cordelia was having a yogurt drink and nearly spat it on Trinity’s face. “Do you know how much pain I’m in every day?” Trinity looked at her in disbelief. “She’s asking to be the female lead every day! There’s really someone so shameless in this world!” Cordelia bit back a laugh. “Block her!” “You think I haven’t?” Trinity sighed. “Each time I do that, she comes to my studio straightaway. What course am I attending? I don’t even have to go to classes or edit my film anymore!” Cordelia hugged her with great sympathy. Speaking of which, this was all because of her. If she had not dismissed Ava’s position in the company, the latter would not be so free to harass Trinity. “I can’t take it anymore!” Trinity punched the recliner. The talented director had filmed all sorts of scenes. She was talented and known for her calm composure. Now, though, she had lost all that just because of Ava. If she were to react harshly and some nosy paparazzi took photos of that, it would be a loss if news got back to Centrolis. “It seems like there’s no other solution except to put up with her.” Trinity sighed. “If only Millie was here. She certainly has ways to handle her!” “Oh, yeah, where’s Millie?” “Shooting a new film, very busy!” “I’ll think of something for you!” Cordelia blinked and smirked. “Get Neil over here! He’s so handsome Ava will definitely be overjoyed to meet him. She won’t pester you then!” “You…” Trinity glared at her and raised a hand to act like she was going to hit her. “What?” Cordelia giggled heartily. “Unwilling to do it? Don’t want Neil to help you out with his good looks?” Trinity blushed. “Cordelia! Just wait until I whoop your *ss!” Both of them messed around, giggling. As the flowers in the yard swayed with the breeze, they seemed to bloom even more radiantly. “Alright, I’ll forgive you this time for the sake of my godson!” Trinity flicked her hair coyly. Cordelia hugged Trinity’s neck. “Seriously, it’s been so long, and you haven’t made any decision?” “What are you talking about?” “Your Mr. Right, duh!” Cordelia was even more anxious than her. However, Trinity quickly swatted her hands away. “Mrs. Hamerton, your husband’s home! Stop clinging to me!” “You—” Before Cordelia finished, she saw Zephyr walk out in haste. He looked grim and nodded to greet Trinity when he saw her. “What happened?” Cordelia got up to walk over.

an alley the day before yesterday, but the man had fought back and even wanted to report it to the police. Angry, they stabbed him twice with a dagger. They stole all his belongings while he lay in a pool of blood. Whether he lived or died after that, they had no idea. Trinity sat there stiffly, clutching the lucky charm Fredric had gifted her. “Trinity, don’t worry.” Cordelia comforted her. “Fredric’s lucky. He’ll be alright. Besides… he’s a lawyer. He knows a lot and has plenty of friends here. He’ll be able to make it out safely…” Trinity sniffed and tried to force a smile. Zephyr held Cordelia’s shoulder as he looked at Trinity. “The police’s searching for him in full force right now,” he said. “I’ve sent men to look for him as well. It should be fine.” “Mm.” Trinity nodded. It was “should be fine”, not “definitely be fine”. Actually, she knew even without them telling her that Fredric was severely injured. Those thugs would never go light-handed. He did not even have a cent on him now, and his phone and passport had been taken away too.

Zephyr’s phone rang, and he quickly picked up. “How is it?” “Sir, we’ve asked all the hospitals in Melorian. No one’s taken in a foreigner who’s been stabbed!” Zephyr’s heart lurched, and his fingers tightened shakily. “Keep looking!” he growled into his phone, “There’s no way a living person is gone just like that! Find him even if you have to flip Melorian upside down!” “Yes, yes…” Zephyr sucked in a deep breath and felt guilt flood him. If he had not casually mentioned that Trinity was taking a course in
