Chapter 285: [Bonus Chapter]Real talk

First, Primo. And now, Assistant Lyn.

Heaven wondered just how many more people wanted Paula’s downfall. As someone who was also a bad person, she could have a rough estimate. After all, many also wanted Hera dead in the past. Although for a different reason.

’At this point, I can’t stop thinking that the world is favoring me too much. It’s almost unfair.’ A thought came across Heaven after listening to Assistant Lyn. ’If not, then how come I don’t need to work hard on this thing? I was just thinking of offering her a way to get her revenge, but here she was, telling me the plan she came up with in just a few hours. I guess being kind and friendly to everyone is now bearing fruit.’

"You might think of me as a traitor, but I don’t care anymore." Assistant Lyn smiled bitterly. She gazed down, pulling up her sleeve to look at the burn marks on her skin. "My parents never raised their hands on me and yet, she had done it multiple times. Miss Shen scares me to death... but after looking at myself in the mirror today, I really pity myself."

She raised her head once again, sporting a fierce look underneath her helpless countenance. "It seemed Miss Shen had forgotten I had been with her for many years. Therefore, I know many things about her that can ruin her career. I will expose her — it would be better if I sell this story so I can earn as well."

"I’m not always like this, Miss Liu," she added, torn between how Heaven would perceive her by her decision and words. "I will understand if you think differently of me now, but I already decided. I want to fight Miss Shen and return all the pain she put me through. I’ll make her regret ever treating me less than a human."

There was a momentary silence that befell the two of them. They just held each other’s gaze with Assistant Lyn’s eyes burning with determination. Meanwhile, Heaven kept a straight face, making one wonder what was on her mind.

"Assistant Lyn, if you plan on getting revenge, why are you telling me this?" Heaven broke the silence with a question. "You know that Paula and I were friends even before we enter the entertainment scene. Even if you say that Paula doesn’t think the same way as I do, I can always deny that and call it slander."

"But you didn’t."

"Hmm?"

Assistant Lyn took another deep breath, eyes fixed on Heaven’s eyes. "When I told you earlier that Miss Shen doesn’t see you as a friend, you didn’t even flinch, Miss Liu. That only tells me you already know that Miss Shen isn’t being true to you."

"Oh?" Heaven blinked, a little impressed at the assistant’s observation skill. But then again, Assistant Lyn should be really observant considering her line of work.

"I don’t know if you are simply putting a blind eye to it for the sake of years of friendship or because for another reason." Assistant Lyn cleared her throat. "But telling you about my plans just feels right. Also, since I know this battle, I am going to start will be messy. I didn’t want to implicate you because you and Miss Shen are close friends."

After telling everything to Heaven, Assistant Lyn felt like a weight in her heart was lifted off. She sighed in relief, having a little confidence in her plans. However, this relief was short-lived when Heaven spoke.

"You will fail." Heaven didn’t beat around the bush, watching how the little hope and confidence in Assistant Lyn’s eyes disappear. "You are up against Paula Shen, the star and money maker of her agency. Assistant Lyn, it is like what you said. You know a lot about Paula, so you must also know how the agency would go all out to protect her."

Assistant Lyn’s heart sank at Heaven’s remarks. The latter didn’t even give her a chance to regret ever starting a war against Paula.

"Hah..." Assistant Lyn lowered her eyes, smiling bitterly. "I know that, but I still want to try. If the article I put out there becomes big, then —"

"Did you really think it will be big? Or would it just get buried and deleted?"

This time, Assistant Lyn couldn’t answer. After being in the industry for years, Assistant Lyn understood that Paula Shen was almost untouchable. Not only she had the agency on her back, but the Lyon Group also backed her up.

"That’s what I thought." Heaven let out a short and dry laugh, resting her elbow against the armrest. She propped her jaw against her knuckles, eyes still on Assistant Lyn. "I know the thought of getting even is a little... exciting. Thinking of the person who hurt you get what they deserve brings this inexplicable satisfaction. However, if revenge means ruining yourself, then that’s not revenge. That’s self-destruction, Assistant Lyn."

Everything that Heaven spewed was akin to poisonous darts landing straight in her heart. It was the truth, though. The thought of Paula’s downfall was satisfying to think, but the process would be painful. Assistant Lyn wasn’t even sure if she would even succeed. After all, if she didn’t succeed on her first try, then she would pay a price she wouldn’t be able to afford.

"You can’t do that on your own, but there’s a high chance you will succeed if you have some help." The corner of Heaven’s mouth curled up subtly, watching Assistant Lyn raise her head once again.

Slight surprise gradually replaced the confusion on Assistant Lyn’s face. Heaven had this subtle smile, yet her eyes were glinting with craftiness.

"Miss Liu..."

"I indeed turned a blind eye to everything Paula had done, Assistant Lyn. However, my heart always goes for those who were wronged," Heaven expressed almost dramatically. "Although I’m not saying I will put equal efforts into it, I think I can help you."

Her lips stretched even wider as the corner of her eyes wrinkled. "Do you want to hear it, Assistant Lyn?"
