Lucinda’s voice quivered, “Thank you. But maybe you should let it go. I don’t want to start any trouble.”
“She started it, and now she’s only getting what she deserve. Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing.”
Lucinda ended the call, a satisfied smile playing at her lips.
By three in the afternoon, just as online chatter was hitting a fever pitch, Elliot posted a statement on his official page. [Not my girlfriend, just my little sister helping out at my concert. Get ready to be surprised.]
That post hit the internet like a spark in dry grass. Suddenly, everyone was talking about it.
[Wait, not a secret girlfriend? She’s a guest performer? Who on earth gets to share the stage with our idol?]
[Did you hear that? A superstar needs a guest act to hype his concert? His tickets sell out in seconds. Anyone lucky enough to have one just struck gold.]
[I’m dying to know who it is. The mystery is killing me. They only dropped this news now, and that girl’s silhouette looks totally new to the industry. Is she some rookie our star’s trying to launch?]
Comments like these took over every social app, fans flooding in with their wildest guesses.
[Maybe it’s an international celebrity, some big business collab?]
[Could be a breakout talent show star, hoping to ride the wave. If it was a global icon, people would have figured out her identity by now.]
[No way. I bet this guest is a total legend. The organizers are being way too secretive. They must be scared of starting a frenzy before the show even happens.]
[Or maybe it’s a low-key singer with insane talent. Elliot’s about to help a hidden gem go viral.]
Every theory sparked more arguments, and the likes and comments kept climbing.
It wasn’t long before #SuperstarConcertMysteryGuest was trending everywhere. Fans were sharing, speculating, and getting more worked up by the minute. The whole internet seemed obsessed with uncovering this secret guest.
He was really hoping for a scandal or two. Why weren’t the paparazzi sneaking around to catch them together?
Lydia shot him a look that said, figure it out yourself.
Connor reached out, gently running his fingers through her hair, and laughed softly. “Wanna go to the mall this afternoon?”
Every staff in the room stopped in their tracks.
Was this real?
Their boss, the one who never set foot in places like that, was asking to go shopping?
They could hardly believe their ears. The idea was almost… terrifying.

thank u!...
Olha a história bem boa só algumas coisas são chatas ( nesse tipo de história sempre troca as filhas pela a da empregada ou então pegam uma menina pra criar) pelo menos eles tratam a filha bem só enche o saco que até agora a Lucinda tá lá enchendo ! Fora isso tá bom Connor é um fofo a família dela a ama muito só Lucinda pra abaixar o nível do livro já era pra ter resolvido isso e fazer ela pagar mais tudo bem li um livro chinês que era parecido só algumas coisas diferentes ,ais mesma coisa tipo ela salvou o Connor no início lá ela salvava o avô dele , no chinês ela não tinha um irmão mais novo com os pais adotivos , a mãe dela tinha 2 irmãos e todos os avós estavam vivos mais história quase igual e tem coisas tipo o triângulo que lá TB tinha até a Lucinda que no chines TB ficou o livro todo aprontando só no final a família descobria e se livrava dela aí ela ia morar com o cara que ela usa pra disfarçar que não gosta do Connor aí depois ainda quase matava a irmã dele e a mãe dele que ele via como ela era...

Every chapter is missing a sentence from the end of every chapter. It’s frustrating to try guess what’s missing or said...
