(Amelia’s POV)

“Because the person I really want your father to choose is someone else.”

I held the phone, my tone calm but radiating the confidence of someone in total control.

Jade on the other end was clearly confused.

I revealed the answer: “Yves.”

There was a sharp intake of breath from the other end of the line.

“Yves?” Jade’s voice rose in disbelief. “But he’s the reigning king of cinema! His image is perfect, and he has countless fans. Why would you want-”

I let out a cold laugh, cutting her off.

Claim

“Exactly. As you said, your half–brother Hugh York’s only pleasure is to oppose anything you suggest just to spite you.”

I leaned back in my chair, tracing the edge of my desk with one finger.

“Since you strongly recommended Jasper, in order to suppress you, he will definitely suggest Alpha Arthur choose Yves.”

My voice dropped lower, carrying a hint of danger.

“But I know Yves’s secrets. That so–called perfect actor is actually a ticking time bomb.”

I paused, letting the weight of my words sink in.

“He is hiding skeletons in his closet that are enough to destroy his career. Once he becomes the male lead of Gale Entertainment’s new drama, when this bomb detonates, the entire

show and even the Gale Pack’s entertainment industry will suffer a heavy blow.”

Jade was silent for a moment.

Although she didn’t understand why Yves’s filth hadn’t been exposed yet, she chose to trust me unconditionally given my certain tone.

Before confirming the final step of the plan, my voice became serious.

“Jade, have you really thought this through? Taking this step might cause Gale Entertainment

heavy losses.”

I hesitated, then added quietly, “After all, this was your mother’s life’s work.”

There was silence on the other end of the line for a long moment.

Then Jade’s voice came through, suppressing pain.

Claim

“My mother exhausted herself for the Pack’s industry. She worked herself into an early grave, only to pass away with hatred when that bastard Hugh and his mistress mother aggravated her condition.”

Her voice cracked slightly.

“On her deathbed, she transferred her shares to me. Her only wish was that the company

must never fall into the hands of that illegitimate son.”

Jade’s tone hardened into steel.

“If I can’t have it, I’d rather destroy it with my own hands than let my enemies reap the

rewards.”

Given Jade’s determination, I proposed the terms of cooperation.

“After the deed is done, you’ll sell your shares in Gale Entertainment to me at market price.”

Jade understood I intended to acquire the company.

But for the sake of revenge and to walk away unscathed, she readily agreed.

“Deal.”

Finally, I reminded her of one more thing.

“Griffin has already taken Celine away. Your previous actions might have aroused his suspicion, so you must remain vigilant about that dangerous man’s movements.”

Jade felt a long–lost warmth at my reminder.

“Thank you, Amelia. I’ll assist in gathering evidence of Griffin’s crimes.”

(Author’s POV)

In the Chairman’s office at Gale Entertainment, the situation developed exactly as Amelia had predicted.

When only Alpha Arthur York and his illegitimate son Hugh York remained in the office, Hugh immediately expressed strong opposition to Jade’s proposed male lead.

He didn’t attack Jasper based on acting skills or commercial value.

Claim

Instead, he cleverly exploited Arthur’s extreme emphasis on the marriage alliance with the

Drake Pack.

Hugh looked worried, poisoning his mind with whispered insinuations.

“Father, why does Sister insist on recommending Jasper? I’m worried she has personal feelings for him.”

He leaned forward, his expression grave.

“You know Griffin is an extremely possessive man. If he misunderstands that there’s something going on between Sister and the male lead, causing the marriage alliance between our two families to fail, we will lose the Drake Pack’s investment and protection.”

Alpha Arthur’s face darkened.

He knew deep down that the Gale Pack was currently a house of cards, outwardly strong but internally weak.

They desperately needed the financial backing and shield of the Drake Pack.

He couldn’t afford to offend that madman at this critical moment.

He listened to Hugh’s provocation, believing this son was looking out for the pack’s interests.

“You’re right to be concerned,” Arthur said decisively. “We’ll reconsider the male lead. Hugh, investigate Jasper thoroughly.”

In reality, he had already fallen into the reverse psychology trap Amelia had designed.

He was now leaning towards choosing the seemingly safe Yves.

Looking at his “loyal” son, Arthur even began to envision a perfect future.

His daughter would marry into a wealthy family, and his son would successfully take over the

business.

He was completely oblivious to the crisis he was about to face.

(Amelia’s POV)

After hanging up the phone with Jade, I immediately contacted Silas.

“Investigate Alpha Arthur York and Hugh York thoroughly,” I ordered coldly into the phone. “I want all their dirty secrets. Make sure to dig up explosive material that can ruin their

reputations.”

After arranging everything, I leaned back in my chair to rest my eyes.

Suddenly, the vibration of my phone broke the silence.

It was a text message from Caleb Stone.

Claim

In the message, he seemed triumphant, showing off that Gale Entertainment was willing to pay his high termination fee.

He confidently declared that he was about to become a huge star.

Finally, he provocatively asked if I regretted letting go of his cash cow.

I looked at the text on the screen.

Inside me, Ava let out a snort of disdain in my consciousness, as if mocking a stray dog that

didn’t know it was about to die.

A sneer of ridicule curled up on the corner of my mouth.

My fingers tapped quickly on the screen as I replied: [Congratulations on digging your own grave.]
