Selena was beginning to fear now, for she saw that all the news articles related to
Ellen were gone. This meant that Jared had taken action.
Selena didn’t want to get involved, much less bear the responsibility for it.
Ellen’s reputation was considered ruined at this point, so even if the news articles
were gone, it was enough to force Ellen out of the chess community. From today
onward, Ellen wouldn’t dare participate in official competitions, and her championship
would become the joke of the chess community.
Selena was quite satisfied with the outcome, feeling that it was worth sacrificing her
body in exchange for such results.
In the meeting room, Jared was seated at the front while a group of people sat before

he took his phone over to the French windows. He answered the call and said
tenderly, “Hey. Are you going to sleep already?”
