+8 Pearls âDue to Ms. Lilianaâs injuries, she has authorized me as her legal representative to handle this case on her behalf,â the lawyer declared confidently.
Olivia glanced at the selfâassured lawyer.
It wasnât possible to involve the police and bring her to the station without some evidence. However, she distinctly remembered avoiding all visible cameras when entering Starlit Entertainment.
Could there have been hidden cameras?
Even so, Olivia remained unfazed. She looked at the smug lawyer and the stern police officer with an air of calm.
Ignoring the lawyer, she turned to the officer with an innocent expression.
âOfficer, heâs saying I attacked Ms. Liliana. Shouldnât there be evidence to prove it?â
The officer turned to the lawyer.
The lawyer promptly played a video he had already shown the police.
As the video began, it showed a young woman with a face identical to Oliviaâs sneaking into the Starlit Entertainment building.
âThis is the footage of the suspect, Olivia, entering Starlit Entertainment that day,â the lawyer explained. âShe entered around 10 a.m., stayed for about an hour, and left shortly after. During this time, my client, Ms. Liliana, was attacked.â
The lawyer then played another clip showing Olivia leaving the building and immediately hailing a taxi.
Watching the lawyerâs confident demeanor, Olivia almost laughed out loud.
So, this is Lilianaâs trump card? Really? This? How much did these lowâbudget effects cost?
âIn addition to the video, many employees at Starlit Entertainment reported seeing Olivia inside the building that day,â the lawyer continued.
Oliviaâs lips curved into a subtle smirk. âMany people saw me?â
The lawyer nodded.
âMs. Carter, itâs in your best interest to cooperate. Besides, you reportedly bragged about your identity while attacking my client, even tying her up in a sack.â
Olivia glanced at the lawyer and the officer.
âOfficer, if it were really me, why would I brag about my identity after already tying her up in a sack?â
The officer hesitated. That... actually makes sense.
The lawyer also faltered.

+8 Pearls âIf I wasnât afraid of her knowing it was me, why would I bother with a sack in the first place? Isnât that redundant?â
The lawyer wanted to retort but couldnât find a logical response. True, no rational person would do that.
Olivia capitalized on the momentum.
âSo, this soâcalled evidence is flawed. Everyone knows my production, âLegacy of the Dynastyâ, and Lilianaâs âTears of Riversâ
are competitors. Itâs no secret we donât get along. If someone wanted to attack Ms. Liliana while framing me to divert suspicion, isnât that entirely plausible?â
Both the lawyer and the officer were momentarily stunned.
Olivia continued, âUse your brain. WouldâIâreallyâdo something as reckless as attacking her and announcing it was me?â
Of course, I would, because thatâs exactly how I roll.
The lawyer opened his mouth but couldnât refute her point. Despite being Lilianaâs legal representative, he begrudgingly admitted that Oliviaâs argument made sense.
