Rebirth of a Flopped Actress's Career: First, Love; Second, Revenge

Chapter 281: Dragging Amelia Into the Mess

As Daniel stared at the barrage of online insults and the numerous missed calls from his boss, he felt only one thing—his end had come. Completely and utterly ruined. But who? Who had done this?

Staring at the leaked videos and chat logs, a face suddenly flashed in his mind. Aurelia: It had to be her. The chat logs were all between him and Amelia, and the videos, besides himself, were only in Amelia’s possession. Earlier, he couldn’t reach her by phone. It had to be her. Daniel lost all sense of reason. Overcome with rage and humiliation, it didn’t matter why Amelia had done this. If he was going down, he would drag her down with him.

Shaking with fury, Daniel reopened his Twitter account and furiously typed out a post aimed directly at Amelia. If she had abandoned all decency, then so would he. If he was going down, so be it. He would take her with him.

Netizens, still eagerly waiting to criticize Daniel, quickly noticed his Twitter account was active again and swarmed to see what he had posted. To their shock, they found Daniel had written a post accusing Amelia, the rising star of the industry, in a scathing rant.

“Amelia, stop pretending. You were the one who brought Olivia to me for the contract. You used my videos to threaten me and suppress Olivia. Now that Olivia has terminated her contract, you think I’m useless, so you leaked our chat logs and those videos?”

The online audience was stunned.

“What? Amelia is involved too?”

Amelia had always enjoyed a good reputation in the industry, with Christian as her powerful backer ensuring her success. No one had expected this mess to implicate her.

“Wait, the other person in Daniel’s chat logs was Amelia? Is this for real?”

“Amelia has always had a good reputation. This doesn’t add up.”

“Daniel is clearly unhinged. He’s dragging Amelia into his mess. Who would believe him? Wait a second… wasn’t Eve recommended by Amelia?”

Amelia, watching the drama unfold, was completely blindsided by Daniel’s post. “Is he insane?” she blurted out. She hadn’t leaked the chat logs or videos. Beside her, Daisy, visibly shaken by the news, turned to Amelia.

“Amelia… what’s going on?”

“I didn’t do anything. Besides, Olivia is my sister. Why would I hurt her?”

Daisy thought about it and nodded. That made sense. She dismissed it as Daniel losing his mind and lashing out. Amelia tried to appear calm, but inside, a storm raged.

She could only thank her luck that she had always used an anonymous account when dealing with Daniel. There was no way to trace it back to her. The more Amelia thought about it, the more terrified she became. If this scandal involved her, she could kiss her career goodbye.

In a panic, she grabbed a second phone, deleted all the saved videos of Daniel, and deactivated her anonymous account. Then, using the excuse of needing the restroom, she smashed the phone into pieces. If Daniel wanted to ruin himself, he could do it alone. There was no way she would let him drag her down too.

Meanwhile, Olivia watched the chaos unfold online, surprised that Daniel had turned on Amelia in his desperation. She rubbed her chin thoughtfully. With a few swift keystrokes, she hacked into Amelia’s computer.
