    “Do you still not know what you''ve done wrong? Listen up, then. Your existence alone is a huge


    mistake! Happy now?” yton retorted.


    He was burning with so much anger that it was nearly impossible for anyone to get through to him.


    “Your sister beat yton up so badly, yet you still have the cheek to show up,” yton''s assistant


    chimed in angrily. “Have youe here tough at us?”


    “What? Are you talking about Sophie? yton, I honestly had no idea. I''ve never been on good terms


    with her, so I don''t know what she gets up to,” Willow hastily exined. Argh! How dare this wretched


    Sophie drag me into this mess! It took so much effort for me to get close to yton.


    “That''s enough. I know you have nothing to do with this matter, but in any case, you should head home


    first,” yton snapped.


    Oh, I won''t forget what I''ve had to put up with today. This matter is far from over!


    Just then, Sky Media''s public rtions manager barged in. “Bad news, yton. Something''s


    happened.”


    “What is it? Why are you in such a panic?” yton replied, still feeling highly irritable. “You''ve worked


    with me long enough and been in all kinds of sticky situations. Must you still lose your cool like that?”


    “Things aren''t looking good, yton. TS Entertainment leaked news and evidence that were


    unfavorable to us, and our share prices have been falling since,” the manager muttered.


    As a matter of fact, he was already at his wits'' end. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have sought yton for


    help.


    The next second, the manager handed his tablet to yton so thetter could check out the scandal


    brewing online.


    Sure enough, fans of The Wheelers were all attacking Sky Media.


    Not only had they brought up the time yton released rumors about the band members abusing


    drugs, but they were alsomenting on how The Wheelers had been bullied and coerced during their


    time in Sky Media.


    “Have you hired ghostwriters to try to sway public opinion?” yton asked.


    If this goes on, the entire public will turn against us. It also doesn''t help that our stocks have already


    fallen very drastically...


    “I have, but it''s useless against The Wheelers'' fans.”


    Interestingly enough, it was only two days ago when rumors about The Wheelers had reduced their


    fans to silence. They were disappointed with their favorite band and even believed they had been blind


    to support them.


    However, things were different now.


    As soon as they learned what The Wheelers had had to endure in the past, the fans began to chastise


    themselves instead for doubting the band members.


    After all, The Wheelers were the best in their eyes and could never havemitted any misdeeds.


    Moreover, they also finally understood why Sunny had gotten into a fight. How could he not when he


    had been mistreated and yed for a fool? Anyone in his shoes would''ve done the same thing.


    Naturally, the fans continued toment on the online discussion boards: Sky Media is a bloodsucking


    company! How dare they treat The Wheelers so poorly!


    Exactly! They''ve gone too far! If I ever run into yton Zales, I''ll make sure he pays for what he''s done.


    Easier said than done, my friend. Aren''t you aware of yton''s reputation? He mightnd you in the


    hospital if you make one wrong move.


    Having seen how badly Sunny was beaten up, it was understandable that fans would feel and think that


    way.

    yton, however, had seen enough and threw the tablet aside in a fit of anger.


    “You are my public rtions manager, for goodness'' sake. Why aren''t you handling this problem?


    What''s the use of showing me thesements?”


    “I''m trying to, yton!” the manager replied with a helpless look. “But the other party''s too good, and


    I''m at my wits'' end! If this scandal continues blowing up, Sky Media will be doomed.”


    “D*mn it. I''m sure Tristan''s the mastermind! Why must he always pit himself against me?”


    Meanwhile, back in TS Entertainment, Sophie was satisfied with how Xandra had handled the matter.


    “So? Have I put your mind at ease?” Xandra asked with a chuckle.


    “Of course. Haven''t I said before that I haveplete faith in you?” Sophie quipped. With Xandra


    around, she hadn''t felt worried since the incident urred.


    She was, however, angry with herself.


    If she had protected Sunny better, he wouldn''t have gotten so seriously injured.


    “This matter isn''t over yet. I want you to continue keeping an eye on it. Let me know if you need more


    evidence,” Sophie instructed.


    As it turned out, one of the reasons Xandra had carried the n out so beautifully was that Sophie had


    provided her with a mountain of evidence.


    Therefore, no matter how many ghostwriters yton tried to hire, they''d never be able to refute the


    evidence avable.


    “Well, carry on with your work, and don''t worry about thepany. I''ll help you keep an eye on it,”


    Xandra stated.


    She can trust me with this, can''t she?


    “All right, then. I''ll head back first.”


    With that, Sophie made her way out, only to find Tristan and Mark still waiting for her. Unsurprisingly,


    Mark also hadn''t expected things to turn out the way they did.


    “Don''t worry, Mark! I got this,” Sophie reassured.


    Of course, Mark knew how capable she was. She had gotten everything under control in less than a


    day, so how could anyone not have faith in her?


    “Yes, I know,” Mark replied.


    Ah, I''m just worried about her. After all, she''s going up against yton, the most despicable sc*mbag


    there ever was!


    “Please be careful, Sophie. I don''t wish to see you get hurt because of us,” Mark added, voiceced


    with concern.


    “You have nothing to worry about! No one can harm me. Besides, I have Tristan by my side. He won''t


    let anyone hurt me either!” Sophie answered. Mark may not believe my capabilities, but I''m sure he can


    trust Tristan!


    Upon hearing that, Tristan beamed with joy.


    After so long, he finally had a spot in her heart.


    “I know, I know,” Mark mumbled.


    I know the two of them are very capable, but I still can''t help but worry about Sophie, can I? Isn''t that


    what it means to like someone? Even though I''m aware she doesn''t have romantic feelings for me, it


    doesn''t mean I''ll ever stop caring for her...


    Eagle-eyed as always, it wasn''t hard for Sophie to tell that Mark was still feeling uneasy. My goodness.


    Could I have scared him? Is that why he''s so worried?


    “Trust me, Mark. I''m not a weakling. Please don''t worry.”


    “Yes, I understand. Anyway, I''m going to the hospital now. Do you want toe along?”


    “No. I still have some matters to tend to. I''ll visit Sunnyter.”


    “Okay.”


    With that, Mark turned and left all by his lonesome.


    For some reason, the sight of him invoked a feeling of sadness in Sophie.


    When Tristan caught her staring at Mark''s retreating figure, he walked up to her and wrapped an arm


    around her waist.


    “What''s wrong?”


    “I seem to have made him very worried,” Sophie muttered. That had never been her intention, and she


    hated how things had turned out.


    To her surprise, Tristan snorted.


    “You''ve made me very worried too! Do you know how awful I felt when I heard you were meeting


    yton alone? Sophie, can you please not do something so reckless again in the future? I was so


    scared that my heart almost leaped out!”
