Dad is right. Selina really did go too far this time! When it came to his birth mother, Manuel couldn’t help but express his 

Indeed, how could Selina ever be considered Angel? She was a jerk who could even harm her own mother! She wasn’t human at all! It must have been a cruel lie Selina concocted just to make Manuel suffer. 

Seeing her plan succeed, a pitiful Ashley apologized, Tm sorry, Mommy. It’s all my fault… I let it slip by accident…” 

“Ashley, this isn’t your fault, replied Sara, not thinking much of it 

Just then. Manuel’s phone rang. It was Timothy. He quickly answered, “Timothy, did you see the trend on Twitter too? 

Manuel, you need to check out the new trend!” 

“New trend?” Manuel was momentarily taken aback, following Timothy’s instructions and opening Twitter. 

The new explosive trend read: [Angel Facebook response). 

His heart skipped a beat! He couldn’t believe that this matter had actually prompted Angel to post on Facebook. 

It was well–known that Angel had a personal Facebook account with only two posts so far. The first was a welcome to the Facebook community and the second featured sketches of a male and female protagonist drawn by Angel. That was all from a year and a half ago. 

Typically, the elusive Angel couldn’t care less about trends, let alone something that had just begun on the Clusian social media. Unless. Realizing the possibility, Manuel quickly clicked into the trending news. The first thing she saw was Angel’s Facebook post, translated for all to read. 

“This has nothing to do with plagiarism. I, Angel, am the designer behind Brilliance. A simple statement, and just like that, it shut everyone up. It also nearly stopped Manuel’s heart. This wasn’t something Manuel could simply dismiss as Selina lying to her. It was solid proof from the only platform where Angel chose to speak out. 

When Quinton and the others saw the news, their expressions changed dramatically. “No… It can’t be!” exclaimed Ashley, but in a flash, all eyes turned to her. 

Ashley realized she had let something slip and quickly corrected herself, “I mean… I just can’t believe Selina is really Angel. It’s so unexpected! Selina didn’t say anything when she first came back, and she grew up in the countryside, didn’t even finish junior high. How could she possibly be connected to the world–famous jewelry designer Angel? Could there be some kind of mistake?” 

Sara pursed her lips thoughtfully, “Right… According to when Angel’s first work appeared, Selina was only 15. How could she be Angel?” 

Manuel jumped in, “Could it be that someone hacked into Angel’s Facebook account for Trevon, deliberately releasing that statement to throw us off?” 

Quinton, however, remained calm, thinking it was unlikely. Even Manuel had said that Selina hadn’t plagiarized, at most she had drawn inspiration, so why would someone steal Angel’s Facebook account? If Angel found out, the consequences would 

be dire! 

Manuel hurriedly logged into Facebook, and saw that the official Facebook statement confirmed- [We have confirmed with Angel herself that the information was indeed posted by her and there is no misinformation.] 

In that moment, Manuel’s phone crashed to the floor, and his mind went blank with shock. He couldn’t believe that Selina was Angel. 

Christina and Madelyn were huddling over a bottle of champagne at the same time. The buzz of the day was a collaboration

of their scheming–Marlelyn financed it, and as a professional jewelry designer, Christina was able to concoct a web of connections between Selina and Angel. Christina hadn’t wanted to get involved, but Selina was just too irritating, always looking down on Christina, which left her with no choice. To their surprise, upon further inspection, Selina’s style was strikingly similar to Angel’s! This fueled Christina’s jealousy. So many have tried and failed to emulate Angel’s style, yet Selina did it with ease, overshadowing Christina’s talent. In a fit of anger, Christina concocted what she thought were strong pieces of evidence to fool those less knowledgeable. 

This should give Selina a taste of her own medicine; the money I’ve poured into this isn’t wasted,” Madelyn declared, knowing well that these evidences couldn’t crush Selina but she did it anyway, aiming to sicken Selina and show Trevon Selina’s true colors. She thought, ‘Such a pathetic clown who could only copy, how could she be fit to be Trevon’s wife? Surely, he must be under some kind of spell 

As the two clinked their glasses, a new trending topic sprung up, almost making them choke on their drink. 

“Selina is Angel?” Madelyn gasped. “Christina, what the hell is going on?” 

Christina was dumbstruck, “I… I have no idea…” 

With the reveal of this alternate identity, the narrative took an abrupt turn. 

Originally, Selina’s popularity stemmed from her looks and career, but now she had the tag of being the renowned designer Angel, cutting through a path amidst a barrage of criticism. 

“Anyone else got something to say now?” 

“My two idols are actually the same person? OMG!” 

“Talk about staying under the radar! When she dropped the Angel bombshell, it was already a mic drop moment. Yet here she goes, flying low–key new talent style!” 

I’ve got to see the face behind that influencer account right now… Are they true Angel fans or just playing at it? They swung the hammer, but they hit Angel on the head–hilarious!” 

“Well, if anything, they forced Angel to reveal her secret identity, and this is going to go down in fan lore. They’ll be roasted for eternity.” 

Just like that, public opinion flipped. 

Madelyn and Christina’s faces fell. Not only had their scheme backfired, they had inadvertently dressed Selina for success. They had hoped to tarnish Selina’s reputation, but instead, they made her the center of attention, famous now more than 

CVCT. 

Madelyn’s phone rang with that familiar annoying chime. An unknown number flashed on the screen. She jabbed the answer button, irritation lacing her voice, “Who’s this?” 

“Whoa, why the hostility? Madelyn” 

It was Selina’s voice! Madelyn exchanged a glance with Christina Selina’s call at this time meant she must have sniffed something out. Whatever happened, they could not afford to give away even the slightest hint. If Selina got even a whiff that they were the masterminds behind the scenes, they’d be done for! 

Madelyn wasn’t dumb. She didn’t let her guilt make her play nice with Selina. Instead, she put on an annoyed front. “What do you want, Selina? I can’t see any reason for us to talk.”
