Rayne was so angry his chest hurt. “I have no idea how the two of them know each other, but Darcy seems to treat her really well and always sticks up for her.

“Damn it! Anything that has to do with Venus these days always turns into a disaster. It’s like I’m cursed or something!

“I told Grandpa a long time ago not to bring someone like her home.

“Venus is pure bad luck, a total jinx. Anyone who gets involved with her is doomed for life!”

While Rayne ranted, Lumi gave a half-hearted smile. “No wonder Venus doesn’t want to come home. Looks like she met a rich guy and found someone to back her up…”

Rayne snapped out of it like she’d just flipped a switch. “Lumi, you’re right!

“There’s gotta be something weird about Darcy. He probably likes girls like Venus-plain and classless. She used to act so timid at home. Now that she has a sugar daddy, she’s showing her true colors!”

“Rayne, I don’t think so. That Mr. Weston doesn’t seem like that kind of guy.”

“Or maybe Venus just clings to him nonstop. She has no shame at all, so it’s no surprise if she latched onto him. How pathetic!”

Lumi burst out laughing and tried to comfort him. “Rayne, this ambassador gig is nothing. It’s nowhere near as good as all your luxury brand endorsements. Remember, you’re the only one in the industry with eight luxury endorsements!

“I heard Josh barely gets any endorsement deals. Even with this one, he can’t match even a fraction of yours.

“Just treat this ambassador job as a gift to Josh. You have so many endorsements, who cares about a city gig that’s nothing but trouble?”

Her words made Rayne feel so much better inside.

“You’re right, Lumi. I have over 40 endorsements. Having one more is just the cherry on top, and losing one won’t kill me.” Rayne let out a proud snort. “But what Venus did to me-I’m not letting it slide.”

He picked up his phone and sent a few messages to his group chat with his die-hard fans.

Then, with a mysterious smile, he put the phone down.

“Venus, you better be ready for the storm my die-hard us are about to bring!”

On the other side, after organizing a blessing ceremony for the upcoming Zrebert promotional shoot, Venus was about to leave.

But the fudges kept her around, asking her questions about Zrebert’s history.

Darcy couldn’t help but smile when he saw those judges usually so full of themselves, standing in a row to listen to her like students.

It wasn’t until Venus politely said that she needed to attend to something that the judges finally let her go.

“Ms. Oracle, I’m amazed at how much you know about rebert’s history. Even the judges are impressed.” Darcy walked over to her.

Venus gave a faint smile. “It’s just a little hobby of mine.

Back when her mentor took her in, she lived in a cottage to recover her health. With nothing else to do, she read books.

She wasn’t picky about what she read. She read every book that she could find-metaphysics, geography, history.

It became a habit. Every time she arrived in a new city, she would first read up on the city’s history.

Darcy looked at her with bright eyes, like he’d found a hidden treasure.

“I’ll head out now.”

Watching Venus hop onto a motorized tricycle by the curb, Darcy was totally stunned.

No wonder she’s called the Oracle Supreme-she stands out even with her ride.

“Ms. Oracle, wait!” Darcy hurried after her, clutching his phone, a bit shy. “Could I have your contact?”

Venus looked at him, puzzled. “Huh?”

Darcy quickly explained, “I’ll pay you for the blessing ceremony through Venmo. I can’t let you work for free.”

Venus smiled and held out her Venmo QR code. “It was just a little blessing ceremony. Just send me 500 dollars, that’s enough.”

Darcy nodded, then quietly deleted the last three zeros, sending exactly 500 dollars.

Venus took the money and sped off on the tricycle.

She’d made some cash today, so she was in a great mood and stopped by the market to buy groceries, planning to make mushroom chowder.

When she got home, June rushed over as soon as Venus stepped inside. “Ms. Oracle, something terrible happened!”

“What’s wrong?”

June handed her a phone.

On the screen was an old photo of Venus’s ID from who she was a teenager.

The picture had been edited to black and white, like a feral portrait. On top of that, a pool of blood had been added to her mouth, making it look extra creepy.

“You’ve been targeted by Rayne’s fans!

“They’re saying you cost Rayne the ambassador job, and they dug up everything from your past.

“The fans are roasting you with every nasty insult you think of, saying all kinds of filthy things.”
