Chapter 689 When They Cared, They Care

While Hera was trending yet again, Alice seized the opportunity to elevate herself at Hera's expense.

She didn't attack Hera directly; instead, she played the role of a concerned friend, pretending to help by offering 'clarifications' that only made things worse. With feigned innocence and an air of worry, she subtly twisted the narrative, making it seem as though she was defending Hera while actually fueling the controversy.

Watching Alice's so-called "explanation," Hera narrowed her eyes. It was clear—Alice wasn't trying to clear her name. She was making sure the netizens kept questioning whether Hera had stolen her role.

Hera snorted as she watched Alice on the screen.

'No wonder she's the female lead. She never misses a chance to put herself in a favorable light—using me as a foil in the process,' she thought before exiting the platform and setting her phone aside.
