Chapter 484 Last Straw

Lydia said nothing.

If given another chance, she wouldn't have chosen to leave Apex Entertainment.

When things were going well, she didn't realise the value of having a big company backing her. Now that she

was in trouble, she understood that a big company could provide solid support.

Before long, Eugene quietly arrived at the hospital.

His assistant was waiting at the hospital room's door. When he saw Eugene, the assistant hurried up to him and

said, "Mr. Scott, you're here."

Eugene nodded. "Let's go in."

The assistant responded, "Alright."

They entered the hospital room together. Eugene immediately saw the weary-looking Lydia sitting on the

hospital bed.

When she saw Eugene, Lydia clutched the corner of her blanket tightly and said, "Hey, Eugene."

Before sitting on the couch, Eugene studied her for a moment. He sighed. "Lydia, it seems like you didn't take my

advice seriously. | told you he'd ruin you."

Lydia blinked repeatedly and said, "I already regret it."

Eugene chuckled softly and said to his assistant, "Geta glass of water."

The assistant quickly complied and said, "Oh, right."

Then, Eugene asked Lydia, "Did you really break up with him and get an abortion?"

Lydia lowered her gaze, implicitly confirming it.

Eugene continued, "You bought those photos, right? The rumours earlier?"

Lydia admitted, "Yes."

Eugene sneered and asked, "So what's your next move?"

Lydia said, "At first, | didn't know what to do. Now that you're here, I think it might be fate. You're the only one

who can help me, Eugene."

Eugene twirled the ring on his finger and asked casually, "Me? How do you expectto help?"

Lydia explained, "I think the only way is to overshadow this scandal with an even bigger one and divert the

public's attention. It's the best PR strategy. Once everyone's focus shifts, | can slowly have the photos removed

from Facebook. With time, | can make a comeback." These back-to-back scandals had certainly damaged Lydia's

commercial value.

If not handled properly, she might soon receive termination letters from her brand partners.

would be difficult.

So, this matter had to be handled carefully.

Initially, Lydia didn't know how to solve it.

When Eugene called, she thought of a good idea.

Previously, her scandal was overshadowed by Violeta's higher popularity.

If Eugene could orchestrate a bigger scandal for Violeta, it would surely cover up Lydia's troubles.

She thought Eugene, considering their years of connection, wouldn't refuse.

Eugene understood Lydia's intention-to have him betray Violeta.

He stood up from the couch and said, "The current heat on you is enough to ruin you. You want to find an even

bigger scandal to cover up. That means you want Violeta to be ruined in your place?"

To cover a scandal of this magnitude, they'd need something even more explosive.

Lydia's current situation was already enough to ruin her reputation.

What could be more explosive?

It would mean forcing Violeta, a top star, out of the industry.

This would ruin Violeta completely.

Lydia pondered and said, "It's not that hard. You've managed Violeta for three or four years. Don't you know

sof her secrets? Men she's been involved with? Relationships? Or we could

create a

fake scandal, like a pregnancy...

She was so focused on her ideas that she didn't notice Eugene's face grow grim.

"Enough."

Eugene cut her off.

Lydia was stunned. She looked up at him and said, "Do you have a plan?"

Eugene replied, "You're beyond help. | won't assist you."

"W-what?" Initially dazed, Lydia asked, "Why not? Didn't you helponce before? | thought we still had some

bond." Eugene asked, "Helped you? When did | ever help you?"

Lydia questioned, "Last year, when | was involved in a scandal, didn't you use Violeta's popularity to help me?"
