Chapter 192 Amelia Makes Her Move
“Of course I know. An artist I knew was facing a massive damages payout. It was a total railroading. I tried calling in favors to get him a real lawyer.

“I figured, hey, I’ve had drinks with Dane before, we chatted–maybe he’ll take a meeting.
“But I couldn’t even get past his front desk. The man sits on a throne.”
Once she started on that man, she didn’t stop.
Amelia couldn’t help comparing–back when Patience was with Maxwell, she’d never talked this animatedly.
Then again, that scumbag had left her bruised all over; mentioning him had been nothing but bitterness.
“Anyway, it’s different now. If Jeremy asks, Dane shows. Honestly, we won’t even need him to swing the sword–Nygard Entertainment will be crying soon enough.”
More precisely, Gianna would be crying soon enough.
Originally, Amelia hadn’t planned to move this fast.
Games are best savored–level by level.
But if someone insisted on sprinting to the final boss and begging for a kill shot … fine. She’d oblige.
“Great. Then we sit back and enjoy the show.”
Miguel went loud with the legal letters, trying to cement the narrative that Selena was a fraud imitating Gianna’s voice and riding her coattails.
The stunt played well with rubberneckers who were unaware of the backstory. They began to believe that Selena was the schemer.
Keyboard warriors piled on. A few of the more unhinged fans went vile,
Selena had just started to blow up; her fanbase wasn’t yet cemented.
Now, with this scandal breaking right as she was rising, the momentum stalled. Some fans even started leaving the fandom.
Meanwhile, Gianna was cashing in on a wave of nostalgia.

Where legacy stars grind–concerts, meet–and–greets, milking old hits–Gianna leaned on her “vocal nodules” storyline.
She dodged live singing and heavy choreography, and also got her old hits played on repeat everywhere.
Nygard Entertainment built a whole slate of fan–engagement events around her, stacking meet- and–greets to keep her constantly in the conversation.
The plan not only shored up her core fandom but also kept pulling in fresh followers, boosting heat and market value in the process.
Run that way, she didn’t have to put in much actual work, yet still enjoyed steady exposure.
She really was getting fame and fortune handed to her.
It was a shame that the payoff wasn’t what they dreamed of.
For an idol wearing a scarlet “homewrecker” tag, any reversal was already a miracle.
“Thank you for the love. I might not be able to sing for you anymore, but I can still dance.
“Don’t just focus on my songs–check out my dramas, films, and variety shows.
“I know you adore me, and I’ll do my best to meet your expectations. I’ll try to make more time to interact with you, and I’ll do regular livestreams so we can hang out.”
She rebuilt her persona, then pulled an all–nighter in the studio to “level up” her dancing, hoping to boost her popularity as much as she could.
Her fans were totally moved, flooding her with support and excitement.
“You’re the best, angel. No matter how they slander you, you stay strong. I need to learn that mindset!”
“Gianna, please take more roles, drop more work. I’m forever behind you–see you in tonight’s live!”
“Her dancing keeps getting better. The world rewards hard–working girls, unlike some people who only know how to hype themselves up and copy
others!”
While Gianna’s fans congratulated her, Selena didn’t bother to clap back.
Amelia decided to show them what real talent and hard work looked like,
Cloudwave Entertainment dropped Selena’s new single and MV right on the peak of the hype.
