Lilith heard the conversation and quickly rushed over to find Belle, blaming her. “Why did you say hasbro & you be come at me directly. Ambrose is innocent
Her tone resembled that of a wife defending her husband.
However, before she could get close to Belle. Eliza pushed her away.
Lilith was afraid of Eliza
After all, with Eliza’s current position, she could crush her like an ant
In the end. Lilith could only apologize to Ambrose with reddened eyes. “Ambrose, I’m sorry. I’ve caused you trouble
Ambrose again shielded her behind him, coldly saying, “It’s not your fault. You didn’t do anything wag, it’s her lack of matern
As he spoke, he threw a disgusted glance at Belle, as if he was utterly disappointed in her.
The warmth in the room made Belle feel oddly cold.
She stared at Ambrose across from her, struggling to speak for a long time.
Eliza, watching this moment, seemed to see her past self in Belle.
She reached out and held Belle’s cold hand
Belle understood what she meant but only gave a faint smile.
That smile, however, carried a hint of sorrTOW.
At the door, there was another knock.
I was Vega, with Ophelia and two bodyguards who had always been by Vega’s side.
Vega, a man with a strong presence, scanned Lilith as he entered.
Lilith immediately shrank back, retreating behind Ambrose.

It had to be said, Lilith was somewhat clever.
She boldly used her own marketing accounts to slander Belle, guessing that Belle would suspect her involvement.
So she even came up with an excuse in advance.
Eliza was truly surprised by how shameless someone could be!
Just as Eliza was about to say something, Ophelia’s young voice interrupted. “But why does your studio also use the same IP address? Even your personal Weibo promotions are using this IP. And I checked again, over a hundred marketing accounts are all linked to the same marketing company. The legal representative of this company is your manager. How do you explain that?”
At first, Lilith hadn’t paid much attention to Ophelia.
After all, she was just a child, barely over ten years old. What could she possibly know?
So when Eliza had asked her to come, Lilith hadn’t taken it seriously.
But she never imagined that Ophelia could track down such a complex web of connections so clearly…
Even professionals who specialized in investigations would need time to dig this up. But Ophelia had done it in a matter of minutes with a few strokes on the keyboard.
Lilith was immediately flustered.
Her first reaction wasn’t to apologize to the victim, Belle, but to explain herself to Ambrose. “Ambrose, I really didn’t know about this. Maybe my manager acted on his own. It’s not related to me.”
As she spoke, tears were streaming down her face, falling freely.
She looked pitiful.
Ambrose looked at her for a few seconds, then half–closed his eyes and said, “I understand. Go inside. I’ll handle things here.”
Lilith, hearing this, felt reassured. She obediently entered the bathroom.
Belle watched all of this with cold eyes.
Ambrose’s gaze swept over her before looking back at Eliza and Vega. “If it was really Lilith’s doing, I will make sure she takes responsibility for
it.”
Belle’s hand slowly clenched. “What position do you have to make her take responsibility? Are you her cuckold?”
Ambrose didn’t like Belle’s sarcastic tone when speaking to him. “You don’t have to speak to me like that. If you have something to say, just ask. I’ll try to meet your requests.”
“Then sign the divorce agreement!”
Ambrose emphasized, “Anything except divorce.”
“Then there’s nothing more to say. Have her publicly apologize! And retire from the industry!” The coldness in Belle’s eyes turned into sharp blades.
“You know very well that Lilith loves this job. Why do you have to target her?” Ambrose looked at her with deep disappointment. “When did you become so aggressive?”
Belle was truly speechless.
Was he really going to protect Lilith like this?
Even with the evidence right in front of him, he still wanted to defend her.
Belle stood frozen for a long time, suddenly letting out a laugh, her chest burning with pain. “I’ve always been a person who repays grudges. She must pay for this! She must!”
With that, she turned and left the room, not wanting to stay in the same space with Ambrose.
She never wanted to again.
Eliza quickly followed after her, worried Belle might do something rash.
Her mood was bad and she needed someone to accompany her.
Nicolas sent her a message saying, “You go be with Belle. I’ll handle the rest.”
Eliza chased after Belle all the way to the hotel entrance, finally catching up with her.
Belle stood at the entrance, staring blankly at the traffic.
The cold winter wind pierced through every gap, filling her with coldness.
