"What rubbish, huh! You have excellent beauty and affluent talent. Even if you do not obtain this title, nothing will go wrong.

Krystal erupted because Leia had taken on a lot of stress, believing that her job was in jeopardy.

"You are dumb and stupid, Kryssi. Why can't you see what I can do?" Leia shouted at Krystal out of annoyance. Suddenly, she sat on the bed, hands on her forehead, eyes closed, a disappointed expression on her face. She began to mutter, "Andrew. Andrew is the problem. If I do not receive this distinction, my renown will suffer for a while, and Andrew will take advantage of the circumstance. He will leave no stone unturned to ban me from the industry. I know quite well what he feels and thinks because-"

"You are so right, darling!"

Andrew's remarks halted Leia as he entered her room, leaving both of them astonished.

Krystal was going to ask Andrew why he was at Leia's house when she motioned for her to exit the room.

"Spit out whatever you want to!" She stated it with arrogance.

Andrew grinned and gave her a piece of paper, nearly inducing a panic attack.

"The... the jury's opinion... I... I... I only got three out of ten votes while Nicole got five. Wasn't Nicole your actress?" She gave a laugh, "Oh, I got the matter now".

"This is a highly confidential topic, but I brought it to your attention in some way. Only for you, Lili. You entered the film industry when you were just 15. For the last ten years, you have been betraying your fans. And, Lili, like you stated, when your celebrity fades, I will thoroughly expose you. I will reveal to the public that you suffer from hypertension and schizophrenia, as well as being an intense drug user and former felon for the murder of five people."

Andrew approached Leia and stood by her. He grinned and spoke in a deep and leisurely tone. "And if I brought out the truth of your birth, then what will happen, sweetheart? Have you ever imagined? The people who are now so crazy after you will start hating you. The fame over which you have your arrogance will completely vanish."
