Chapter 467\u00a0<\/p>\n
As Larissa reached the main floor, Damon sneered. \u201cWhat\u2019s this about, Larissa? Thinking of bidding again? You have that kind of cash? Or are you planning to sell Judson Pharmaceuticals?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa smiled sweetly. \u201cNeither. You see, I am Field of Lari, the author of \u2018Heaven\u2019s Will\u2019. And I simply have no intention of selling the rights to you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat?! You\u2019re Field of Lari?!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The room reeled in collective shock. The live-stream chat exploded as viewers frantically debated the truth of her claim.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lucius\u2019s brow furrowed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t be ridiculous,\u201d Magnus scoffed, as if hearing the world\u2019s funniest joke. \u201cIf you\u2019re Field of Lari, does that mean you orchestrated this whole event?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s right,\u201d Larissa admitted without hesitation.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen why bother?\u201d Magnus pressed. \u201cIf you\u2019re the author, you could have just given the rights to your own company. Why stage this elaborate farce? Just to mess with us?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cInitially, it was to humiliate Finley. Now, it\u2019s to humiliate your master, Mr. Lincoln,\u201d Larissa said, her tone utterly unapologetic.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Damon and Magnus felt like they\u2019d swallowed a turd. Their master? The words were deeply insulting, making them sound like Lucius\u2019s servants. Though the jab stung, they didn\u2019t dare refute it for fear of angering Lucius further.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI know your master, Mr. Lincoln, wanted to put me in my place, to cut off every possible resource for Starlight Media,\u201d Larissa continued, clicking her tongue mockingly. \u201cThe battle for \u2018Heaven\u2019s Will\u2019 was supposed to be his first victory. But it looks like you\u2019ve stumbled.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She let her gaze drift over them. \u201c600 million dollars. I have to admit, Mr. Lincoln, that\u2019s quite a power move. You must have thought you had it in the bag. You probably imagined Field of Lari gleefully counting her money, set for life.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Damon\u2019s face tightened, a flicker of embarrassment in his eyes. She had read him perfectly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa\u2019s lips curled into a smirk. \u201cUnfortunately for you, I don\u2019t care about the money.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
With every word she spoke, Lucius\u2019s expression grew darker.\u00a0<\/p>\n
[For real? Larissa is actually Field of Lari?!]\u00a0<\/p>\n
[If she is, that\u2019s insane! Not only is she a musical prodigy, but a literary genius too!]\u00a0<\/p>\n
[She turned down 600 million dollars! She must see money as nothing more than dirt!]\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhether you\u2019re Field of Lari or not is still up for debate!\u201d Damon challenged, turning to the host. \u201cLenora, is she telling the truth?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lenora looked from Larissa to Damon and nodded. \u201cI am Field of Lari\u2019s editor. While I have never met her in person, the name on the contract is indeed Larissa Judson.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chapter 467\u00a0<\/p>\n
Unfazed, Larissa produced two documents from a folder. \u201cI have a habit of writing my first drafts by hand. This is the original manuscript for \u2018Heaven\u2019s Will\u2019,\u201d she explained, holding one up. \u201cAnd this is the publishing contract I signed with the website.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Magnus stepped forward, snatched the documents, and examined them. His face fell as he confirmed her identity. One by one, the other company representatives came forward to see for themselves.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The representative from Sky Entertainment finally broke the stunned silence. \u201cThis is outrageous, Larissa! If you\u2019re Field of Lari, you were always going to give the rights to your own company. Why waste all of our time with this elaborate meeting?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
