After speaking, I grabbed my laptop and was about to leave when Sean rushed in front of me like a speeding bullet to block my way.

"What are you doing? Didn't you say you still have a lot of debt to pay off?

"You think you can just stop writing because you say so? Didn't you say every day that writing is your biggest dream?"

Chloe also panicked. She walked over, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Vivian, you don't need to punish yourself like this. I'm willing to give you a chance to start over."

I sneered as I watched the two of them perform.

The next second, Chloe suddenly bit her lip and knelt down to me right there!

"Vivian, I beg you, please don't leave the industry over this little thing. Your readers will definitely not let me off!

"I can delete all the information and pretend none of this happened. If you leave the industry, my sin will be too great. I won't write anymore either..."

The sound of camera shutters instantly focused on her.

My former top-tier editor couldn't help but walk over to pull her up.

"Chloe, what are you saying? Why are you kneeling to a plagiarist?

"She brought this upon herself. You just signed a top-tier contract with the company. Don't forget, there's still work to be done."

I was too lazy to stay here and be attacked, so I simply left the scene.

To avoid being mobbed by reporters, I specifically took a detour and took a taxi back to my apartment from the back door.

On the way back, my Twitter notifications kept popping up.

I clicked open and found that four of the top ten trending topics were about me.

#VivianVancePlagiarism#

#VivianVanceChloe#

#ChloeForcedToKneel#

#ChloeGhostwriter#

Crazed marketing accounts denied all the works I had ever created.

They claimed I stole Chloe's ideas and threatened her to be my ghostwriter.

The comments under my Twitter were a chorus of curses.

[Damn, this is so disgusting. I actually became a fan of a plagiarizing dog.]

[I watched the live broadcast of the press conference. Vivian Vance was speechless when confronted, and she even forced Chloe to kneel at the end!]

[Good thing you know your place and decided to retire, otherwise I'd ruin you!]

[Even her own boyfriend stood up to point the finger at her. Vivian Vance, what exactly have you done?]

[I bet she just grabbed enough cash and ran. I support Chloe suing her until the end!]

My private messages were completely filled with foul language.

In contrast, Chloe's Twitter follower count was skyrocketing, and the comments below were all heartwarming encouragement.

I left a comment.

[Then I wish you can continue updating daily and finish the second half, don't disappoint the readers.]

I knew I didn't have many unpublished drafts left.

Chloe was too anxious, worried that I would publish the story before she finished hoarding drafts, so she decided to strike first.

But she couldn't possibly complete the foreshadowing and easter eggs I had buried earlier.

Exposing her was only a matter of time.
