Sage raised her eyes casually. Luther turned his laptop to show Sage while saying, “The
Zelda family is having a press conference.”
“What?”
Yoel was sitting cross-legged on the sofa in Jace’s office. He was watching the show when the latest
news popped up in his feed. He was stunned for a moment, then he turned to Jace, “The Zelda family
is having a press conference!”
Jace glanced over.
Yoel scrolled down the news and laughed at the ridiculousness. “Is your ex-girlfriend and dream lover
an idiot?”
Jace scowled. He hated the term dream lover. However, Sienna was indeed a fool.
A media company approached Sienna after she posted the public post. After learning about Sienna’s
one-sided remarks, they persuaded her to have a press conference to clarify the matter. They claimed
that this would help Luna clear her name and make Sienna a super star.
She would become a superstar… What a temptation!
When Sienna decided to work in the industry, she wanted to become a female star. She was interested
in shooting commercials and acting. Unfortunately, Luna warned her against it and reprimanded her.
“Do you think it’s so easy to become a star? Who are you? Do you think you can become one with that
beautiful face of yours? Are you as beautiful as I was when I was young?’
“Stop dreaming. I have Lucas as my support, but I can’t get any more resources. You’re relying on me
as your support. You should call it a blessing to be able to work for Universal Channel. I boldly go
through the back door to give you a chance to do so. Don’t be so greedy.”
“Just focus on your job as a host. Do you want to try acting? Have you ever learned to act? You can’t
even act well in front of men. Do you think you can act facing the camera and hundreds of movie crew?
Are you so bold? Do you know the difference between a dream and wishful thinking?” Back then,
Sienna dared not to refute Luna. However, she was unhappy.
Now that she was given such an opportunity to attain her dreams, how could she let it go? She had to
seize it.
Therefore, Sienna took the leap of faith and stood in front of countless cameras and flashes for a big
play. She slowly read out the scripted lines written for her and occasionally burst into tears and swore
about the truth.
“Everyone thinks that rumor is fake, but what they see is true. However, is that really the truth? It was
indeed my aunt who was in the car at the time. I would know, I was there. Everything that happened
was just an accident. Perhaps there was something wrong with the
car. Maybe Aunt Luna didn’t step on the brakes on time. I wasn’t in the car during the incident, so I’m
unsure.”
“Please believe in my Aunt Luna. She’s a kind person. How could she deliberately harm others? How
could she kill? I swear she’ll never…”
–
Next, it was time for the question and answer session. A reporter stood up and asked a question. “Miss
Zelda, you said you were there during the incident. May I know if you are facing away from the car or
facing the car?”
Sienna was startled. “I…I’m probably facing the car. I forgot.” “You saw that what people see isn’t
necessarily true. However, you claimed that you witnessed everything and it was an accident. You
aren’t her. You don’t know what she had done and what she was thinking. How can you speak on
behalf of Miss Luna? You claimed that what people saw from the surveillance recording was fake. So,
how do you prove that what you saw was real?”
“I…” Sienna was lost for words.
The reporter added, “You said you forgot if you were facing the car or not. However, this is clearly
recorded on the surveillance camera. When the incident happened, you were talking to a man with your
back to the car. When the man rushed over to save the victim, you turned around. On the surveillance
recording, you seemed very surprised… Therefore, you’re clearly lying!”
Sienna widened her eyes in shock. She was stunned at first and suddenly panicked while facing the
camera.
