BuzzNovelA wave of commotion swept through the crowd as reporters eagerly snapped photos of Sienna’s humillation.
Fortune, unable to stand it any longer, grabbed Sienna’s arm and tried to pull her away. But both the backstage
entrance and the exit to the exhibit hall had been locked-they were trapped.
On the big screen, the VCR kept playing.
“So you admit you leaked the designs, is that right?”
“...Yes.” The woman pressed her lips together before finally nodding.
“Why?”
“I didn’t want to!” Her voice jumped an octave, then dropped again, quivering.
“But... but | designed things too! Why is it that everyone only remembers Queenie?”
“Do you hate her?”
The woman shook her head, shoulders trembling as if she were quietly crying.
“If | stayed at Awe Studios, I'd never make a nfor myself-I just couldn’t. Isn't the reason any of us do this
because we want to bechead designer, to see our own non a brand? Who wants to spend their whole
life in someone else’s shadow? Queenie’s amazing-she’s always helped me, always givenadvice. I... | never
meant for this to happen...”
“What did you mean to do?”
“I just wanted to finish this event and then quit. But it was Sienna... she said if | helped her this once, she'd

Her frantic explanations fell on deaf ears. No one in the crowd seemed to sympathize; instead, all eyes zeroed in

Watching this unfold, Stella couldn't sit still any longer. She gave instructions to keep things under control and
dashed out.
“Queenie! Was this your doing? Was it?” Sienna shrieked, her voice grating enough to make people wince.
“Dream on. Stealing wasn’t enough for you? Now you want to play the victim too?” Alessia shot her a cold look.
“You did this-own it.”
“I didn’t steal anything! This is all you-you’re framing me! You just drag in srandom person to accuse me, is
that it? And what about the blackout, huh? That was your little trick too, wasn't it?”
Cornered, Sienna latched onto any argument she could find.
The cameras turned on them, flashes strobing across their faces in the darkness.
“You didn’t steal? Then why so nervous?” Alessia didn’t flinch, her composure unbreakable despite the barrage of

“Do you have any proof?” The words appeared on the screen, but nobody seemed to notice.
“I do! | have proof!” Sienna’s voice rose over the din, drawing every gaze back to the screen.
Sienna clenched her jaw so hard she looked like she'd shatter her teeth, longing to smash the screen herself.
