Chapter 180
Maxwell wasn’t sure.
Seeing that Roxanne looked like she was about to faint, he just said, “Go back and get some rest. You’re not in good health.”
***
The other side.
Jeremiah had already brought Stephanie over to Milton’s place.
A few people were all waiting for them.
“What should we do now?” The people here all knew Stephanie’s real identity, but everyone had their concerns.
Just because they all knew that in three days, Stephanie and Maxwell’s divorce cooling–off period would be over.
If we exposed that Serena was actually Stephanie at this point, would it cause extra trouble?
Everyone there knew Stephanie was dead set on getting a divorce.
What if we couldn’t break up…
Also, if Roxanne knew Serena was actually Stephanie, would she have used even more extreme methods?
Next to me, Jeremiah’s phone kept ringing.
Stephanie saw that the calls above were from the various investors of the show.

Jeremiah didn’t pick up.
He didn’t dare to answer it, either.
Countless messages popped up, one after another.
Stephanie looked and found that all the messages were asking to remove Serena.
They were all putting pressure on Jeremiah.
The power of “fake donations” was just too strong.
None of the investors dared to take the risk. If things got out of hand and someone gave some “guidance,” the whole show would be
scrapped.
Jeremiah felt a headache. He waved his phone in front of Stephanie, then put it away.
They had to come up with a plan in a short time, or there would be endless trouble.
“Don’t rush yet,” Stephanie said.
She had just been thinking about it the whole way.
“The next livestream was the finals. If everything went well, I could get the divorce certificate before the finals.”
The people there nodded.
“So, we were just one word now, drag.”
Stephanie looked at everyone there and said, “As long as you keep my spot for now and don’t kick me out of the competition, or mess up the whole show, once I get the certificate, a lot of problems can be solved.”

Everyone nodded.
But then he went quiet again.
Because there was a lot of uncertainty about all this.
First, could Stephanie really get the divorce certificate smoothly?
Second, how were they going to stall?
Jeremiah knew who Stephanie was, but the other investors didn’t know, and there was no way they could find out.
The whole living room felt tense.
What I used to think was an unimportant “fake donation” actually turned out to be the key point now.
Everyone was thinking.
At that moment, Stephanie’s phone suddenly started vibrating.
She looked and saw it was a call from the Serena.
“Who is it?” McKayla asked.
Stephanie shook her head: “No idea.”
“Could it be some kind of insult or something? They knew your info.” McKayla got nervous. Stuff like this really did happen in the entertainment industry.
Logan nodded too. He’d been in these circles a lot and had seen a lot of nasty stuff.
“Bro, can you put some kind of blocker on Stephanie’s phone?” Logan thought, looking over at Milton.

Milton nodded and went to do it.

But Stephanie looked at her phone suspiciously and didn’t pick up.
Then the phone didn’t ring anymore, and two texts came in.
“Serena, I gave you a chance.”
“Everything you did before was just luck. Did you really think I
couldn’t do anything about you? Beg me. If you beg me, maybe I’ll still try to help you out.”
It was from Roxanne.
Jeremiah came over to take a look, and he just started cursing right
away.
