Chapter 418\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa raised an eyebrow, a suspicion forming in her mind. \u201cYes?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is Livia Tyson.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa had been right.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve taken care of Honora for you,\u201d Livia continued, \u201cbut don\u2019t think for a second it\u2019s because I was jealous over some man.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
A small, intrigued smile played on Larissa\u2019s lips. \u201cOh? Do tell.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t know or care if you were involved in Jagger\u2019s arrest,\u201d Livia explained, \u201cbut the fact that you dared to provoke the Lincoln family means you must have some serious power behind\u00a0<\/p>\n
you. So, if you manage to take them down for good, it would be a huge favor to me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa laughed. \u201cInteresting. I thought you were as head\u2013over\u2013heels for Lucius as the\u00a0<\/p>\n
tabloids claim.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBullshit!\u201d Livia swore. \u201cI just don\u2019t have the power to deal with Lucius myself. Who in their right mind would want to be with a violent monster like him?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
A genuine smile touched Larissa\u2019s face. This Livia really was the real deal.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright,\u201d she said. \u201cDon\u2019t worry. I will bring down the Lincoln family.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the car, Honora, who had overheard the entire conversation, stared in disbelief. \u201cLivia, you\u2019re helping that bitch Larissa take down your own fianc\u00e9!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Livia hung up and shot Honora a disgusted look. \u201cYou think everyone is like you? Scheming and playing the victim just to win a man\u2019s affection?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She turned to the bodyguard. \u201cAlright, you can take her away now.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
As she watched Honora being driven away, Livia steeled herself for the storm that was coming. Lucius\u2019s fury would be immense. But it didn\u2019t matter. If she could just hold on for a little while, until the Lincoln family fell, she would be free from this godforsaken\u00a0<\/p>\n
engagement.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She was so sick of everyone thinking she was lucky to marry Lucius, as if it were some great honor. The truth was, Lucius had pressured her parents into the marriage. She was officially an only child, but her father had an illegitimate son. He thought that by selling her off to Lucius, he was securing a powerful connection for his secret heir.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In reality, the Lincolns saw the marriage as a way to absorb her family\u2019s company.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Livia clenched her fists. Neither her father\u2019s illegitimate son nor the Lincoln family would\u00a0<\/p>\n

get their hands on what was hers.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At Gale Entertainment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Lincoln,\u201d Damon Tyson said, bowing respectfully to Lucius, \u201cmy HR manager just informed me that twelve employees from Starlight Media are resigning to join us. That little upstart from the Judson family must be in a complete panic right now.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lucius\u2019s eyes narrowed in satisfaction. \u201cExcellent. As for what to do with the twelve of them once they\u2019re here, I\u2019ll leave that to your discretion, Damon.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Just then, an assistant entered the office and hurried to Lucius\u2019s side. \u201cSir, we have a problem. Ms. Tyson somehow found out that Honora was at the Neverending Night. She assumed Honora was your mistress, caused a scene, and took the woman away.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lucius\u2019s face turned to ice. He glared at Damon, who was now trembling. \u201cYour daughter has quite the temper.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Damon swallowed hard. \u201cMy apologies, Mr. Lincoln. I\u2019ll make sure Livia reflects on her actions\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t want there to be a next time,\u201d Lucius said coldly. \u201cOtherwise, what happens to Starlight Media will happen to Gale Entertainment.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Damon nodded vigorously. \u201cUnderstood, Mr. Lincoln.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAlso,\u201d Lucius continued, \u201cthe deepfaked video of Larissa. Release it as soon as it\u2019s ready. Buy a bot farm, get it trending. I want it to bury the news about my uncle\u2019s arrest. A sex scandal is always more entertaining for the masses.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
