"I suspect Henry is behind all of this, Seraphina. What should I do? I should never have brought him back!"
Olivia's voice was full of regret and guilt.
"Let it go; I know you meant well. I'll contact Michael now to see if he can help contain the situation. But don't overthink it. Just make sure you inform Sarah and last night's other guests; we need to keep them. calm. It wouldn't hurt to actually make that talent show happen
Even if it gets scrapped, it doesn't matter.
There just needs to be some trace of it.
"Got it. I'll handle it right away."
Understanding Seraphina's intent, Olivia quickly hung up.
Seraphina skimmed through the latest online chatter and grasped how far the situation had escalated.
"Wow, doesn't that guy look just like Orion? Did Seraphina find herself a double? How tragic!"
*Remember when Orion was practically begging for her to take him back? However, she prefers to have a stand-in over him. Who's the real issue here?"
"Come on, she's the heiress to the Cross Group. She can have anyone she wants with just a word. Your idol needs to step up!"
Seraphina shut down her browser in exasperation and dialed Michael's number.
Michael was likely experiencing the same level of anxiety as her.
He answered the call and said, "Ms. Cross, we've started suppressing the news. Don't worry about it, but you need to brace yourself. The fact that we're withdrawing too much is likely to raise suspicion. The public is hypersensitive to corporate privileges, so this may not blow over as easily as before.
"If Mr. Dros had kept quiet, we might have been fine. However, when one of his friends posted a photo to criticize him, the situation quickly escalated. Have you two fallen out with each other?"
Seraphina was silent for a few moments, ignoring the latter part of his question. She responded with a calm yet firm command, 'Don't pull anything back. Sign that Henry guy. Not everyone gets to ride my coattails to fame. If he's looking for attention, let's make him famous. Why should someone else profit when we can?"
Michael clicked his tongue. He'd been dying to suggest this but hadn't dared to bring it up.
Now that Seraphina had said it herself, he was eager.
"Understood. I'll contact his agent."
"Feel free to book him for runway shows, acting gigs, singing lessons-whatever. Make sure he gets to enjoy the spotlight while it lasts."

Michael instantly caught on to Seraphina's game plan.

It was clear-Henry would ride the wave of his temporary fame, and once it died down, so would he Abandoned. Shelved away.
Seraphina's fame wasn't something just anyone could ride on.
"Don't worry, I'll make sure we squeeze every last drop out of him."
Michael said without hesitation.
Seraphina ended the call and, as usual, headed to the office.
At Orion's mansion.
Ken had been unable to sleep after seeing the news.
Orion's friend's retaliation left him in a panic. They'd ruined everything.
What was this-friend or foe?
It was the perfect chance to defend Seraphina, yet Orion's friend had blown it.
The person who had assisted Seraphina into the car last night resembled Orion, if one didn't pay attention.
Ken wasted no time rushing upstairs to knock on Orion's door.

Orion was already drowning in his sorrows. He flung open the door with dark, stormy eyes "ak!" he barked.
Ken held out his phone and said, "Mr. Dros, why don't you see for yourself?"
One minute passed, then two, then five. Orion's expression grew darker by the second.
Before he had even made his move, his double had already stolen the show.
Sympathy for him flooded the internet.
Sympathy? No, this is an opportunity to witness my humiliation up close and personal!
His heart churned with jealousy and anger.
The next second, his phone went flying, shattering into pieces on the floor.
Ken winced at the wreckage. That phone was expensive.
But he kept his mouth shut. "Mr. Dros, should we do something?" Ken asked cautiously.
Orion's eyes were bloodshot with rage. He commanded, "Go and take it all down. I don't want to see a single word of it."
Ken nodded quickly and ran downstairs to make the call.
Back in his room. Orion nicked un his nhone just so I urine called

"Who's that busybody who posted the photo online?" asked Orion. Orion cut him off, his voice cold.
"You've already seen it?" Lucius felt his stomach drop.
