    [Karma’s a real kick in the pants! Everybody out there spinning tall tales and ying marketing games-


    you better watch out. Your day’sing, just like it did for Seren!]

    There were plenty of folks online who weren’t too wrapped up in the drama, but still couldn’t help but


    feel a rush of satisfaction when they caught wind of the scandal.


    [This is the juiciest story of the year! Who thought they could get away with slinging mud on the


    inte? And acting all high and mighty, iming to be an insider. But seriously, you all must have too


    much time on your hands to be duped by someone like her. The nonsense she spouted was so easy to


    debunk with a quick Google search-how could anyone believe she was the real deal? Besides, even if


    she was an ‘insider,’ what of it?! could be sweeping floors on a set and call myself an insider!]


    The gist of the news was that people were just too idle.


    With nothing better to do, they fell for the flimsy fictions spun by others, getting totally bamboozled by a


    make-believe world.


    Meanwhile, Seren’s old ount had just issued a new apology post to Ivy.


    This time, she didn’t follow Mara’s advice and instead went straight for a public mea culpa to Eudora.


    She knew well enough not to mess with this powerhouse and figured a little humility might score her


    some leniency in court.


    ra was still busy shootingmercials. Lady Luck was smiling on her these days.


    Ever since she stepped over Ivy to climb thedder, all sorts of advertisers had been eyeing her as the


    next big thing.


    The gigs she’d snagged recently were more than she’dnded in the past few yearsbined.


    But home life had been weirdtely, especially with Tessa walking around like she’d seen a ghost.


    Once the queen of the kitchen, Tessa now didn’t even bother, leaving the cooking to a maid whose


    meals were to die for-in the worst way possible!


    Not a single dish had hit the spot for ra.


    Despite being as busy as a bee outside, she couldn’t evene home to a decent meal.


    Even when ra threw a fit at the dinner table, Tessa wouldn’t bat an eyelid. It all got so heated that


    ra would retreat to her room and binge on snacks instead.


    She vowed not toe home for dinner at all. With cash to burn, why not dine out with her posh pals?


    The oddest thing was, her dad saw the whole circus and didn’t say a peep.


    Before, if a meal wasn’t up to snuff, he’d have a full-blown tempest right there at the table.


    Tessa would shrink back, terrified, apologizing like mad.


    But what was up with them now? Were they heading for splitsville?


    But the thought made ra chuckle.


    No way, not a chance. Dad might have his flings, but Tessa? She’d be lost without him.


    There’s ra, striking a pose for the camera, when out of the blue, the crew’s attention shifts from her


    to their phones, murmuring among themselves like it’s breaking news.


    Trying to keep her cool, ra wraps up the shoot before heading over to the director with a poker face


    to review the footage.


    But who’d have guessed? The director’s suddenly lost all patience, “Scram, will ya? Don’t you know


    what you look like? What kind of magic do you think we can work here?”


    ra’s smile freezes in ce. She might not be the belle of the ball, bute on-her looks are far from


    shabby.


    Otherwise, why the heck would she be the darling of ad agenciestely?


    Once upon a time, the director sang her praises. What the heck changed overnight?
