Chester slowly leaned backward.
The silence seemed to last for ages before he said, “Okay. Keep a watchful eye on the company for me. Nothing is allowed to go wrong. My dad isn't capable enough."
“Don't worry, President Jewell. Not only is Chairman Jewell incapable, but other people in Jewell Corporation are also pretty much the same. We'll keep a watchful eye on them, and no one will dare to act unscrupulously."
After Chester nodded, a trace of viciousness flashed across his eyes.
'There will be ample time to settle the scores with Eliza.' One week later, the judge sentenced Chester to three months in jail and made him compensate one billion dollars to Eliza.
The astronomical amount caused heated debate among the public again, and some people began to make sarcastic remarks.
[How many zeros are there in one billion? I can never make so much money in my life.]
[Somehow, I feel that Eliza is making a lot of money. Although she's an A-list artist, some artists can never make so much money in their lives. She could easily have it after sleeping with Chester for some time.

[All of a sudden, I want to be like Eliza and have Chester compensate me.]
[Are you guys out of your mind? Does Eliza care about the money? All she wants is justice.] [With our help, she has managed to earn one billion dollars. She’s now ridiculously rich.]
"Freya, Eliza is right.”
Catherine’s pretty gaze was filled with a mix of feelings. "Lizzie, I realize that I underestimated you back then. You're much more brilliant than me. To be able to throw caution to the wind and deal with Chester like that, who else can do it apart from you?"
"Yeah. If it were me, I wouldn't have the courage." Freya secretly sighed. Hardly any woman would dare to confess that they were forced upon and release so many recordings.
"I don’t care how others see me." Eliza lifted her head. As the morning sunlight shone on her fair face through the curtains, her dark and determined eyes revealed a trace of unparalleled strength.
Catherine and Freya were so amazed that they were momentarily speechless.
