(Author’s POV)
20 Pan
Amelia finished reading Zoey’s social media post. She did not hesitate for a single second to execute her bold plan.
Her slender fingers tapped quickly across the bright screen of her phone. She typed a direct message right under Zoey’s chaotic, unsettling drawing.
[I want to invite you to play a supporting role in my new drama, “Treatment Diary“. You will be acting alongside Wayne, are you willing?]
She hit the send button immediately without any second thoughts. The comment appeared instantly at the very top of the massive comment section.
Almost immediately, sharp–eyed users spotted the shocking comment. The internet exploded with sudden confusion and wild disbelief at her words.
At first, many people strongly suspected it was just a fake account. They thought some cruel troll was playing a sick, twisted joke on Zoey.
But then they clicked into the profile picture to investigate the source. They quickly confirmed it was indeed Amelia’s verified personal account with the golden badge.
The comment instantly went viral across all major social media platforms. The notification bell on Amelia’s phone began ringing non–stop with endless alerts.
Netizens flooded the reply section with angry, aggressive questions. They aggressively asked if Amelia knew anything about the bitter past between Wayne and Zoey.
Many users pointed a harsh finger directly at her character. They viciously accused her of using this public method to intentionally humiliate Zoey.
They claimed she was deliberately ripping open Zoey’s painful old wounds for cheap drama publicity. The online backlash was incredibly fierce and immediate.
Amelia completely ignored the overwhelming flood of hateful private messages. She did not care about their blind rage or their vicious insults at all.
Instead, she calmly navigated back to her own main profile page. She created a brand new post for her millions of followers to see.
She republished the exact same public invitation without changing a single word. This bold, unapologetic move instantly triggered an even larger public uproar.
Zoey’s devoted fans swarmed into Amelia’s comment section like angry hornets. They cursed her for

They screamed that she was intentionally exposing Zoey’s past trauma to the entire world. Countless people expressed their absolute disappointment in her character and morals.
They threatened to unfollow her accounts immediately and delete her from their feeds. They loudly
declared they would join a massive boycott against her new drama.
Not long after this digital storm started, her office door suddenly opened. Secretary Anya Reed walked in
with a deeply anxious and panicked expression.
Anya’s hands were trembling slightly as she clutched her work tablet tightly. She looked at her boss with wide, highly worried eyes.
She stated she never expected Amelia’s strategy to handle Wayne’s negative press would involve bringing
Zoey into the cast. It seemed completely counterproductive and insane.
Amelia looked up from her desk with a perfectly calm, unbothered expression. She peacefully admitted
that this was exactly a core part of her plan to clear the ugly rumors.
Anya felt a strong wave of panic rising rapidly in her chest. The entertainment company’s hard–earned reputation was currently plummeting by the second.
However, she forced herself to take a deep breath and calm her racing heart down. She chose to firmly
trust her capable boss’s bold, unconventional decisions.
Amelia’s public invitation continued to stir up a massive storm of public opinion online. Yet, Zoey’s side
remained completely silent for an entire day.
There was absolutely no response or acknowledgment from the popular actress. Amelia sat quietly in her
office as the sun began to set outside her window.
She decided she would personally visit Zoey’s residence the very next day to demand answers. She packed up her belongings and left the Starlight Entertainment building.
While driving her car on the way home, her phone suddenly buzzed loudly on the dashboard. She glanced
at the screen and saw an incoming call from Zoey.
Amelia smoothly tapped the answer button while keeping her eyes on the road. Zoey’s voice came through the speaker, sounding very light and incredibly cautious.
The actress stated she wanted to talk face–to–face about acting in “Treatment Diary“. She suggested
meeting at a highly exclusive, private restaurant in the bustling city.
Amelia agreed to the sudden proposal readily and without any hesitation. She immediately turned her
steering wheel to change her direction.
She changed her original route home entirely to meet the actress. She drove her sleek car straight toward the designated high–end location.

Amelia arrived at the luxurious restaurant shortly after receiving the call. A polite waiter immediately led
3 her through a quiet, dimly lit hallway.
He guided her into a heavily concealed private room located at the very back of the establishment. Zoey was already waiting inside the silent room.
Zoey’s aura remained highly elegant and refined despite the ongoing internet drama. She stood up politely to greet Amelia as the heavy wooden door closed.
Amelia’s sharp werewolf senses instantly flared to life in the enclosed space. Her keen observation skills immediately noticed the slightly bulky earrings dangling from Zoey’s ears.
Her sharp intuition firmly told her that this meeting was not Zoey’s original idea at all. Someone else was definitely pulling the strings from the dark shadows.
That unknown person was currently listening in through a micro–device hidden inside those heavy
earrings. Amelia instantly knew exactly who the culprit was.
It had to be the mastermind Wayne had mentioned before in her office. It was the powerful figure using absolute authority to control Zoey’s every move.
This man was Lord Sterling, the dark backer standing firmly behind the Drake Pack. Amelia kept her face
perfectly neutral and showed absolutely no emotion.
She sat down gracefully and directly asked if Zoey was interested in her acting invitation. Zoey looked at
her with deep, genuine confusion shining in her eyes.
The actress asked why Amelia would risk her public image to cast her right now. Everyone knew this move
would cause the public’s favorability to drop sharply.
Amelia smiled calmly and stated that as a businesswoman, she valued pure profit above all else. She laid
out her simple, undeniable logic to the actress.
As long as Zoey joined the cast and publicly clarified that the past with Wayne was just a
misunderstanding, the drama’s ratings would absolutely skyrocket.
Zoey’s eyes widened in sudden, shocking realization at these words. She finally understood Amelia’s true, underlying goal in this massive public stunt.
Amelia was doing all of this just to help clear Wayne’s wrongful grievances. She wanted to fully restore his
ruined reputation and save his career.
A brief, heavy silence fell over the private room after Amelia’s confession. Zoey seemed to be receiving
new instructions through her hidden earpiece.
She suddenly opened her mouth and stated she was entirely willing to cooperate. However, she immediately proposed a strict exchange condition for her help.
She demanded that Amelia must never interfere with any of the Drake Pack’s affairs ever again. Amelia let
out a cold, mocking sneer at the ridiculous demand.

She bluntly pointed out that the Drake Pack were the ones who provoked her first. They had repeatedly
3 crossed her bottom line without any fear.
She maintained a highly unyielding attitude toward the hidden listener. She firmly stated her own absolute
demands if they wanted her to stop her attacks.
The Drake Pack had to issue a public apology to her immediately. Furthermore, they must sell their
entertainment venue, “The Dark Den“, to her at a rock–bottom price.
