    Liam said calmly. “Owen dug up some dirt. It seems that Hanson conned Sydney into signing a transfer


    agreement. She promised to help her transfer assets but ended up running off with the money instead.


    The recording was Hanson herself venting it all over the inte, probably out of revenge”


    Sydney was never the steady type. Over the years of her fame, she was climbing the socialdder,


    sucking up to the big shots and looking down on the little guys. Hanson, being the closest to her, was


    inevitably affected


    She didn’t make much money from Sydney over the years. Instead, she had to put up with Sydney’s


    regr insults and humiliation.


    There was concrete evidence in Sydney’s case. It’s a done deal. Hanson knew Sydney’s glory days


    were over. This was a criminal case, and there was no way to


    spin it


    So, she tricked Sydney into thinking she could bail her out but needed a heavy bail. Sydney’s


    properties had been frozen, but there were plenty of funds she had invested under her parents‘ names


    Sydney’s reputation hit rock bottom. She had a tough time in jail. She was a big name, and almost


    everyone she met in jail knew her.


    She was insulted, ridiculed, and alienated. In just over a week, she lost nearly ten pounds.


    She was already skinny, and losing ten pounds made her face sink in. She looked nothing like a star


    anymore, just a wreck.


    She couldn’t stand the jail time. When Hanson said she could bail her out, she didn’t even think twice


    and gave Hanson ess to those funds. And Hanson took the money and ran, even betraying her


    After hearing all this, Celeste was silent for a moment before saying. “Such a shame”


    Liam was confused.


    Celeste slowly said, “I didn’t get to see her face when she heard Hanson ran off with the money. It must


    have been the most animated she’s ever been.”


    Liam said, “Tomorrow is the third day. Any news from the kindergarten?”


    Celeste shook her head, “No, everything is normal.”


    “What does Hector say?”


    “Mr. Hector said he’s calling the cops tomorrow. Let them handle it.”


    Liam frowned, “If the cops go, wouldn’t that make things worse?”


    “Mr. Hector said that’s exactly what he wants. The bigger, the better”


    Liam was silent for a moment, “Going big, wouldn’t that affect you negatively?”


    Celeste gave him a head rub and chuckled, “You’re the one who found me awyer Why are you


    doubting now?”


    Liam said softly. I’m worried it’ll turn into something like the mall incident.”

    Celeste said, “The kids and parents at the kindergarten are their bargaining chips. If I want to drive


    them off thisnd, this is inevitable. Mr. Hector has a n. Even if I get some k, if it stops Helen’s


    greed, it’s worth it.”


    Liam pursed his lips, Tm staying here tonight”


    Celeste was confused.


    Liam added. “Until this is resolved, I’m staying here.”


    Celeste was even more confused


    Liam nced at her and said, “I’m going to stay by your side to protect you. I won’t let you get hurt


    again.”


    Celeste asked, “Trisha lives with me. How can you stay here?”


    Liam said, “I won’t sleep in the living room. I’ll sleep in your bedroom”
