[I always thought The Brightest Star’ was Jessica’s gift to me, only to learn it was Ashley's work today, and Jessica had taken the credit for it.]

[I was so blind to take someone who habitually lied, stole credit, and was hypocritical as a family while being harsh and heartless to my sister, Ashley. This is a guilt | can never wash away in my lifetime.]

[From now on, | have only one sister, and that is Ashley!]

This confession caused an uproar online.

She was driven away from the dinner table by her brother, locked in the basement with roaches and rats, and humiliated by him, being told she was less important than a dog...

What kind of life was that?

Not only were netizens shocked, but even Matthew's fans were taken

aback.

How unethical he was!

Matthew had ruined his own career...

All he did was speak up for Ashley...

And for a grand apology to her...

‘Damn it! Why didn’t | think of this strategy first?’ Jeremy wondered.

Why were the Ramos brothers posting confessions one after the other?

However, they were utterly shocked after reading Jeremy’s post.

It turned out that Jeremy had once been kidnapped, and Ashley had desperately rescued him. However, Jessica took all the credit for Ashley’s bravery and even lied to Jeremy!

The netizens were buzzing with disbelief. [Damn, Jessica again? She was so evil!] [After all this, how can the Ramos family still hold her up as the princess of the family?]

[The Ramos family’s entertainment company had just promoted Jessica’s debut not long ago, and now her public image has completely collapsed. How could she become a celebrity? Someone like her should be banished from the entertainment industry!]

[Seriously, what’s wrong with the people in the Ramos family?]

The confessions posted by Jeremy and Matthew caused a sensation. across the Internet, leading to criticism of the Ramos Group.

As a result, the company’s reputation suffered greatly, and its stock prices plummeted. Meanwhile, the members of the Ramos family gathered in the living room of Ramos Villa, enveloped in a heavy atmosphere.

Evan was visibly upset, his chest heaving with anger as he browsed through the online criticism aimed at their family. “This is ridiculous! Nonsense!” He exclaimed.

Bertha quickly came to soothe him and gently rubbed his chest to calm. him down. “Evan, don’t get worked up. Take a moment to cool down.”

Evan's face reddened, and his voice was thick with emotion. “Look at your sons! The two of them are a disgrace! It’s embarrassing for these two to post our family affair on the Internet!

“What will people think of the Ramos family now? We're nothing but a joke!”

Nothing was more unacceptable for Evan than tarnishing the Ramos family’s reputation. 3/5

Frankie added with a solemn face, “Dad, there’s also the issue with the

Ramos Group's stock price. It’s fallen quite a bit due to the negative impact on our company’s image.”

Frankie’s brows remained furrowed as he looked at the tablet in his hands, the concern evident in his gaze

He had already called the company’s public relations department, asking them to minimize the impact of the situation. However, other forces seemed to fan the flames secretly, trying to vindicate Ashley and suppress the Ramos family. Charlie glanced at Jessica, who was sobbing quietly and handed her a glass of water. “Jessica, please stop crying.” Ryan sat down beside Jessica in a clean biker’s outfit with a rugged look.

“Jessica, don’t cry. Matthew is a jerk. How could he slap you? You took credit for Ashley’s lyrics, so what? It’s not worth to be angry about it.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“And Jeremy, how could he publicize your past on the Internet? You didn’t mean to take all the credit for Ashley's work. Now Jeremy’s actions. are just making everyone online criticize you.”

Looking exhausted, Frankie rubbed his temples and said to Jessica, “Now, the Internet is full of slander and calls for your exit from the

entertainment industry.

“For your safety, stay at home for a while. When this is over, I'll find your plays and variety shows. Okay?” Jessica sobbed with her head down, the red mark from Matthew’s slap still swollen on her face. She felt a deep sense of injustice.

It was not fair!

How could that despicable woman, Ashley, shine in glory and be praised by everyone? Meanwhile, Jessica felt like a pariah, scorned and forced to hide away at home.

She just couldn’t accept this outcome.

Jessica cried with her shoulders trembling, looking utterly pitiful.

Bertha’s heart ached for her. “My dear, please stop crying. It breaks my heart to see you like this.” Bertha said, her brows furrowed with concern. She turned to Frankie, desperation in her eyes. “Frankie, you must think of something. Can you help Jessica change her reputation?

“Maybe we can find some of Ashley’s scandals to spread around the internet and get people to criticize her. That might help Jessica get her reputation back too!”
