Chapter 470

Chapter 470 Defender of Souls

Lucy didn’t think she was in the wrong at all. “Do you know how vicious showbiz is? How will I work if I

have a child with me? How do you expect me to work and care for a child at the same time?

“Do you know how many actresses are vying for my roles? They’re all waiting for me to screw up so

they can steal my thunder!”

Abandoning her golden–girl image, Lucy seethed. “If that child had wanted to be born, then she could

have at least made it worthwhile for me!

“I had to pull strings to get an ultrasound done. Can you imagine how disappointed I was to find out I

was carrying a daughter? The family of the man I was seeing wanted a son!”

She clenched her fists tightly. “They kicked me out because of that wretched baby!”

Lana laughed maniacally at Lucy’s show of anger. “What did I say? Grown–ups are selfish liars!”

There was a loud crack as the camera lenses split and shattered.

Lana wrapped a hand around Lucy’s neck and lifted her into the air, her eyes filled with hatred. “Since

you refuse to apologize, you shall die!”

With the cameras out of commission, the audience could not see what was happening now. The show

cut off right after Lucy admitted to having an abortion and refused to apologize for it..

At once, the topic of Lucy’s former pregnancy and subsequent abortion began trending online.

However, before the audience could learn more about the scandal, the screen went black. The

audience flew into

panic.

“What’s going on? Is it a technical issue?” one of them typed.

“Can the production crew do something? We’ve only just gotten to the good part!” another viewer

demanded.

But the production crew was panicking harder than the audience. They would be held responsible for

any casualties on set regardless of the cause. To make matters worse, there was a criminal among the

guests.

Dexter was close to barging into the building and clamping a hand over Lucy’s mouth himself. He

couldn’t believe she would rat herself out and put his and the show’s reputation at risk.

Inside the children’s hospital, Lana tightened her grip around Lucy’s throat and hissed, “You would

have made a terrible mother. If the world is as cruel as you, we don’t want any of it!”

Lucy’s feet had been lifted off the floor, and she was flailing her arms wildly in the air.

Yvonne screamed, “Lucy! Someone help her!”

However, none of the others dared to move. As Zane and Oliver were standing closest to Lana, they

could see her shadow under the lights.

However, the shadow didn’t take the form of a woman. Instead, it was a cluster of moving silhouettes.

“What the hell is that?” Zane demanded loudly as he covered his mouth and came close to tears.

“What is the production crew playing at?”

Oliver staggered back and fell onto the floor.

Tobias, on the other hand, saw no strange shadows. All he focused on was protecting his partner. But

just as he was about to pull her behind him, Wynter moved out of his way.

She moved so quickly that she materialized in front of Lana in the blink of an eye.

Lana gazed at her with bloodshot eyes and hissed, “Are you going to stop us too?”

“She is not the person whom you seek vengeance on,” Wynter pointed out calmly. “Put her down and

I’ll show you how we grown–ups play our games.”

Lana’s hateful voice suddenly changed. When she spoke again, it was as if multiple children were

crying

out, “You’re lying! Grown–ups are all liars!”

“You’re doing her a favor by killing her since all she wants is fame and power,” Wynter clarified,

reaching

out to grab Lana. “You should let her live so that she’d suffer public humiliation. Don’t you want her to

fall from grace?”

A dark look glazed over Wynter’s eyes as she continued, “You won’t be doing yourself any good by

killing

her. Even souls can’t be redeemed after committing such a grave sin. There’s a child among you who

called out to me.

“I believe there’s something that ties the both of us together. If that’s the case, I’m obligated to protect

him.” Wynter’s dark hair was like glossy black velvet in the light. “I cannot let him commit such a grave

sin.

As she said this, she loosened her grip on Lana.

“How fortunate for you to have someone protect you.” Lana’s face twisted with envy and malice, the

hate in her eyes intensifying. “But who will protect us?”

She glowered at Wynter mutinously as her cluster of shadows grew larger. “Are you saying we

deserved. this abandonment? What do you know of our suffering?”
