This might be what Alice learned from her previous life. After all, without these skills, she would have faced the same fate as in her past life. To survive and thrive in the entertainment industry, she sharpened her abilities and adapted her strategies ordingly.


    Hera needed to be cautious of Alice’s skillful maniption while ying the victim, which required heightened vignce. But how could she address this? The solution seemed to depend on the male leads, but they were currently preupied. Alice had numerous opportunities to get closer to any of the male leads in Rafael’s circle, making it difficult to guard against her schemes. This situation could also serve as a test of how strong the female lead’s influence and the storyline’s impact are on the male leads.


    And with this trajectory, she gained the male leads’ affection, helping her rise like a phoenix reborn from the ashes, soaring higher than anyone else after her transformation. This mirrors what Athena often mentions about female leads in reincarnation stories. By understanding this pattern, it’s easier to grasp the storyline and the female lead’s ultimate goals.


    "Additionally, while it’s true that they are my friends, they are also my suitors, contrary to the malicious rumors, they don’t actually provide me with my resources. I have a best friend who’s incredibly generous and the support of the Avery Consortium through the UE Company. Thanks to them, Ick nothing." Hera smiled at Alice, her expression carrying a hint of challenge and warning.


    Everyone, including Alice, was stunned by Hera’s revtion. While they had seen from the end of the Variety Show that Hera was best friends with a wealthy heiress who provided her with luxury cars and shelter after her apartment was taken from her due to her ex-boyfriend’s betrayal, they were baffled by Hera’s mention of support from the Avery Consortium. This new detail left them confused, as it was not something they had expected or understood.


    Then, their gaze shifted to Gerald standing behind Hera, and everything clicked into ce. They inferred that Gerald’s offer ofpensation for the injustice that Hera suffered and wasn’t taken care of properly must have been the support from the Avery Consortium for Hera’s career in the entertainment industry. Given that UE, where Hera is contracted, is also under the Avery Consortium’s banner, it made sense that they would facilitate her career through that connection.


    If that were the case, there would be no need for Hera to be a sugar baby to anyone. Despite her suitors being rich and handsome, including the Young Minister of the Country, they have never acted inappropriately towards her. Even during the Variety Show, when Xavier and Leo were with Hera, they maintained a respectful distance and behaved like friends. Any potential interest was expressed with clear boundaries and respect.


    Even with the photos circting of Hera with her suitors, none of them show her in intimate orpromising positions. The images only depict her in thepany of these men on various asions, without any evidence of inappropriate behavior.


    Fortunately, someone was live-streaming the entire ordeal, a detail Hera caught from the corner of her eye. Alice probably assumed Hera hadn’t noticed, which is why she kept trying to undermine her, hoping Hera would slip and admit to using her body to gain favor with men or anything else that could tarnish her reputation. Instead, Hera seized the opportunity to start clearing her name online, leveraging the growing stream of evidence that was released online to support her case.


    With Hera’s rification of the misunderstanding, if Alice continues to push the issue, it will only highlight her malice. Instead of Hera facing criticism, Alice will attract bacsh fromizens for having a dirty mind and using an innocent person of misconduct without proper evidence.


    This unexpected opportunity was too valuable for Hera to pass up. It proved to be more effective than her original n. Even with solid evidence, there could still be room for nder and criticism, but by seizing this moment, Hera could garner additional support for being wrongfully and maliciously used.
