Eric's eyes suddenly became sharp.
There was a snap.
Amelia was slapped in the face!
Amelia was stunned and raised her hand to cover her face.
"Eric, how... how could you hit me?!"
This slap was so forceful that her face was almost swollen.
Amelia, already frustrated, had hoped to bask in SG's fame by appearing on the show with Eric after SG's recognition.
But fate dealt her a blow.
It never occurred to her that Victoria was SG!
Watching Victoria being praised and looked up to by the crowd, the jealousy in Amelia's heart grew wildly, and her internal organs burned with anger.
Victoria, that bitch, was better than her in every way!
In the past two years after Victoria returned to the Montgomery family, she was just a lowly child who wasn't cared for by her father or mother, but today she was the center of attention. She should be the one who stole the limelight.
But now, everything has changed.
Amelia could not accept it, nor could she tolerate it!
Amelia covered her swollen face, her mind becoming more and more distorted, and with malicious intent, she said,
"Eric, I understand that Victoria being SG has hit you hard..."
"Sigh, why didn't Victoria inform you about being SG earlier?"
These words were clearly meant to fuel the fire.
Eric naturally caught on, looking at her with a cold smile.
Amelia's heart trembled under his gaze, "Eric, why are you looking at me like that?"
Eric restrained his expression and smiled softly.
"Amelia, during those dark days when I was plunged into darkness, you wrote me the lyrics to "Brightest Star" to encourage me. Besides the lyrics, there were also two words of encouragement for me. Do you remember what it was?"
Hearing this, Amelia suddenly squeezed her fingers, forced a smile, and stammered, "Eric, it's been so long, I forgot about it."
"Forget about it." Eric gently raised his hand and tucked a lock of Amelia's hair behind her ear.
However, in the next second, Eric's face suddenly turned cold as he grabbed onto Amelia's hair.
Amelia was in pain, and her face immediately changed, panicking, "Eric! I... I just forgot!"
Eric grabbed her hair forcefully, his eyes filled with anger,
"You're lying! Besides the lyrics, there were no encouraging words! I was just testing, and you revealed yourself!"
"Because that song 'Brightest Star', you didn't write it at all, right!"
"On the show just now, you even remembered the name wrongly, You called it 'Brightest Flower'!"
Eric should have realized this earlier. How could Amelia, who couldn't even remember the name, have written such an important encouraging song?
"This song 'Brightest Star' was written by Victoria and given to me, right?"
The fingers grabbing Amelia's hair became more and more intense. The anger in his voice almost burned her to death.
Amelia's nose was sore from the pain, tears welling up in her eyes, "Eric, don't be like this... I'm scared..."
"Scared?" Eric's anger and regret were raging in his chest, desperately needing an outlet, "When you impersonated Victoria, why weren't you afraid then? Hmm?!"
Eric grabbed Amelia's hair and forcefully slammed her to the ground!
He hated Amelia for impersonating Victoria.
But even more, he hated himself!
At that time, he mistreated Victoria, venting his pain on her, while she, despite everything, wrote lyrics to help him.
Unfortunately, he didn't care about Victoria's welfare and found her whole existence disgusting.
That's how Amelia took advantage of the situation, saying that she would help Amelia deliver the lyrics to Eric, but she directly impersonated her.
Victoria had to find another way, using SG's identity, to secretly enlighten and help Eric.
