Bacchus nodded, pretending to understand.

“Now, we just sit back and watch the show,” Alessia said, her confidence unmistakable–so much so that you couldn’t help but believe she’d get exactly what she wanted.

“Alright, the show’s over. You can leave now,” Max announced bluntly, already ushering people out the door.

“Come on, Max, you’re the reincarnation of Scrooge or something! It’s already noon. Even if you’re not hungry, I still need to eat!”

Max ignored him and turned to Alessia. “Let’s go. I’ll take you to lunch.”

Alessia nodded, picking up her purse from the sofa.

“I’m coming too,” Bacchus chimed in, eager as ever.

Max shot him a look but didn’t bother saying anything.

After they ate, Alessia headed home. The rest would take care of itself–with time, everything would unravel just as they planned.

Sure enough, at nine that evening, several trending topics quietly began climbing the charts.

When her phone rang, Alessia left Ivan’s room and returned to her own, shutting the door behind her.

“Boss, the posts are live, and the team we hired to boost engagement is already at work. The buzz is building fast–the comments under the video are resonating with other parents. It’s getting more attention than we expected.”

“Good. Have the tech team keep an eye on it.”

“Will do.”

She hung up and logged into her social media app.

She tapped on the first trend. Both elementary schools involved were well–known among parents, so the interest was high. The lavish interiors shown in the photos had plenty of onlookers commenting on the gap between ordinary families and the privileged few.

After scrolling for a bit, Alessia exited and clicked on the second tag. A video popped up of Tammie shoving York during the competition. Both kids‘ faces were blurred, but it didn’t take long for someone to dig up Tammie’s information–conveniently linking it to the third trending topic.

Lucky: Just like they say–bad apples don’t fall far from the tree! Seriously, how vicious can a kid be? She tried once and failed, so she shoved him again. She was clearly set on hurting him!

EuroSocialite: I was there! That kid was totally arrogant, zero remorse, and refused to apologize. I heard she threw a huge tantrum when the school threatened to strip her of her award.

Fool’s Paradise: Adding this to my list of reasons not to have children!

33: Oh, I know this! Turns out her parent is just as

unreasonable–accusing the other kid of framing her granddaughter! And apparently, the grandparent is a famous watercolor artist, the kind who’s

even been on TV.

Insider: Hilarious! Famous watercolor artist? Everyone knows he gets people to paint for him! #Hamilton Art Scandal

ttt: No way! That’s wild.

Tipster King: And it’s not just her–someone found out her

granddaughter’s wins are mostly rigged. Half the awards were bought with bribes, the other half were done by hiring talented kids from struggling families to do her work. Disgusting! Only the insiders really get it. #Tammie’s Manufactured Prodigy

same family showed up. Word is the awards were bought, and Dale Reeves blacklisted them from all future exhibitions and contests.

Thanks to the Quincy family’s history of shady dealings, Alessia and her team only needed to light the fuse–now others were discovering explosive secrets buried just beneath the surface.

One after another, the scandals would erupt. And when that happened, the Quincy family would finally have to reap what they’d sown.
