Chapter 843
Audrina was effectively cklisted by the entire industry. Although Sylvia didn''t say a word, Audrina''s
fate was enough to warn anyone. Especially with her "instant noodle support" campaign, which had a
very negative impact on fan culture that had already be somewhat abnormal in recent years. With
her careful calction, this bizarre and extremely damaging support not only seemed like a farce and
joke but also vited thew.
Therefore, when the official Twitter ount of "Peaceful Urgford" saw such a negative impact online,
they directly released a tweet at midnight.
"Audrina has been arrested for fraud. The shocking ''instant noodle support'' is suspected of raising
more than 50 thousand. Currently, Audrina has been approved for arrest on suspicion of fraud. For
fraud less than 4 thousand will be punished with fines; for more than 4 thousand but less than 5
thousand will be subject to control; for 5 thousand or more will face three months imprisonment and an
additional month added per increase of 1670; ten thousand or more will face six months imprisonment
and an additional month added per increase of one thousand."
So it seemed that Audrina was going to spend one or two years in prison.
Late-nightizens who couldn''t sleep immediately rejoiced.
"This scum actually dared to harm my Poppy! So trashy!"
"Peaceful Urgford is really amazing! The speed at which they handled this matter is simply too fast."
"Yes yes! I didn''t expect Peaceful Urgford to be so awesome!"
"Seek justice for Poppy! That''s great!"
"I knew it! Poppy would never deceive her fans."
"Oh oh oh oh! I received my refunded funds!"
"I received mine too!"
"Haha, Audrina gave back all that money."
Fans were celebrating.
This entertainment industry turmoil caused by the wrap partysted only one night before reversing
again and again.
It also made everyone in the industry understand clearly that Maskelyne Group''s Poppy was cherished
by her big brother and sister-inw. If anyone wanted to mess with them in the future, they would have
to think twice.
Of course, many people began considering carefully what purpose Poppy served while others
remained stubbornly angry all night long. Katie red at her phone.
Why was Poppy so lucky to have someone to protect and support her all along? Even after the big
scandalous incident, she was able to regain her poprity among the public. Not only that, but she also
gained a lot from it.
Everyone was eagerly anticipating "The Beggarly Girl Is A Noble Lady," even famous film critics were
rubbing their hands together in anticipation of seeing an early screening so they could write reviews.
Katie couldn''t help but wonder why her own poprity wasn''t as good as Poppy''s. She was also in the
entertainment industry and her family''s Mcguire Group wasn''t any worse than Maskelyne Group. Was it
because she wasn''t as pretty as Poppy? Or maybe her personality was bad? Her acting skills were
terrible? Her albums didn''t sound good?
Katie felt very dissatisfied and angry because manyizens started making lists of female stars from
truly wealthy families, their current status in the industry, and their future prospects.
She became infuriated when peoplepared her unfavorably to Poppy on these lists. They said that
Katie couldn''tpare to Poppy in any aspect.
Just when Katie began doubting herself, someone insulted her appearance saying she wasn''t
recognizable like Poppy or had a lively acting style like hers.
Katie was furious. Unable to sleep, she decided to go downstairs for some water, only toe across
Kareem who had just returned from a business dinner with Carolyn following closely behind him.
Carolyn was dressed in an elegant evening gown that highlighted her beauty even more than usual.
Kareem, on the other hand, was wearing a ck suit that enhanced his schrly appearance. Carolyn
appeared relieved as she took off her high heels, having endured the difort of wearing them for
hours at the event. The purpose of their attendance together was to seek potential investors for their
After a long night of dealing with cunning businessmen at the event, Carolyn was left utterly exhausted.
As a result, she went straight upstairs as soon as they returned home, while Kareem stayed downstairs
and had a chat with Katie.
Kareem took off his suit jacket and casually threw it onto the sofa. He looked up at Katie and asked,
"You know about Poppy''s situation, right?"
Katie was taken aback, she did not expect Kareem to not go upstairs and instead talk to her about this
matter.
She seemed to have found a spiritual support suddenly, her voice filled with grievances. "These people
keepparing me to Poppy and saying I''m not as good as her, they insult me terribly. Kareem, these
people are so bad."
The more she thought about it, the angrier and more aggrieved she became. "It must be Poppy who''s
trying to bring me down with her bought followers, just so she can mock me and elevate herself by
stepping on me."
She felt ufortable, but what made her even more ufortable was that Carolyn didn''tfort or
care about her at all and went straight to bed.
Sure enough, Kareem still cared for her and knew how to show concern for her career in the
entertainment industry.
With this thought in mind, she became increasingly repulsed by Carolyn.
Kareemforted her for a few moments before standing up from the couch. "Get some rest and don''t
think too much about it. I''ll introduce you to some resourcester on, and we''ll definitely surpass her. If
that doesn''t work out, we can always invest in making our own movie at home. I''ll find you a great
production team to make you a star and bring you to the top."
Katie looked at Kareem with tears in her eyes, deeply moved. She intimately held onto Kareem''s arm
and said, "Kareem, you''re always good to me."
Kareem walked upstairs with her, patting her head as they went. "You''re my only sister, who else
should I treat well?"
Carolyn waspletely unaware of the interaction between the siblings. After taking a shower, she
discovered that her hair dryer was broken and opened her door to go to Katie''s room to borrow one.
However, she heard Kareemforting Katie as soon as she opened the door.
She frowned and looked displeased at the siblings who were going upstairs together. "Kareem, you
know very well what ourpany''s situation is right now. There is simply no extra money to invest in
Katie''s film project. How could you make such a promise to her?"
Kareem thought she was so tired that she had already gone to bed!
The result was that Carolyn suddenly exposed his lies, and he couldn''t help but feel ashamed.
"Carolyn, I just wanted to find a way to raise some funds for Katie because she was so upset. If
necessary, I''ll invest my own money."
"You''re so immature!" Carolyn was really angry with Katie. She looked disappointedly at her little sister-
inw, whom she had always loved and spoiled. She never expected that Katie would misunderstand
her so deeply.
"You''re not young anymore. I hope you can be more sensible in the future and stop causing trouble for
our family andpany. Thepany now is not the same as it used to be! You are still able to live
like a princess because of me, because of your brother''s sacrifice!"
After saying this, she mmed her bedroom door shut.
The more she thought about it, the angrier Carolyn became. Katie had never been scheming or
cunning before, nor did she have any ulterior motives towards her.
She also cared about Carolyn very much.
But what Katie said just now shocked her greatly.
More than anything else though was heartache - how could such a good intention lead to such an
oue?
The Mcguire Group was on the brink of copse now; if it weren''t for her... who knew what might have
happened already...

Carolyn took a deep breath andy down on the bed.
Outside the door, Kareemforted Katie by saying. "She always brings up Lukas as if we were
responsible for his detention. Don''t take it too personally; just go to sleep."
Katie was also angry. "Look at how she behaves! Lukas has gotten into trouble; nobody feels good
about that but talking about him all day long makes people really annoyed. I think she''s trying to
morally ckmail us."
"Never mind," Kareem continued adding fuel to fire. "She''s just relying on herself having contributed
something significant to thispany? If I were in charge here, we''d already be making movies!
Unfortunately..."
"Kareem," Katie sympathetically nced at him while yawning. "As long as you perform well enough
Dad will appreciate you."
The siblings then separated after returning back into their rooms.
Later on when he got back into his room again, Kareem couldn''t help but smirk - this silly girl seems
trusting him way too much.
He believed that given time, the Mcguire family would eventually fall into his hands.
Early next morning...
Fine drizzle fell from sky above while cold air permeated through everything around them especially
since Christmas wasing soon which made streets filled with festive atmosphere where colorful
lights hung everywhere.
Sylvia arrived early at the hospital, where she met with Mrs. Wright''s attending physician. They
discussed treatment ns and went over the results of previous check-ups. Upon receiving the results,
Sylvia''s face darkened, and she asked, "How could this happen?"
