Chapter 177 Playing Along Till the End

Simone’s fans naturally did not believe that she did it and assumed it was Jodie who poured the dirty

water. They even quoted what Jonah thought.

Simone was not even present at that time, so how could she harm Jodie?

Jodie’s fans immediately refuted it. To harm someone using geomancy or mystical arts did not require

proximity to their target. Regardless, it was Simone who hurt Jodie.

Even Zac’s fans did not believe Simone would do such a thing. If she dared to do such a harmful thing,

would the special department not take action? That department was specifically responsible for dealing

with these matters.

Their purpose was to prevent and punish geomancy or mystical arts masters who used unnatural

means to harm others. No matter how they explained, Jodie’s fans insisted that it was Simone who did

it, and they cursed her in various ways.

They even brought up her master and cursed him as well. They said he did not teach her well. and only

taught her how to harm others. Then, they started to criticize Gwen as well. They said she was blind

and that she was just as malicious for fighting his brother for someone like

Simone.

Simone’s fans angrily fought back.

These people were going too far, not even sparing her best friend and deceased master. They were

simply insane!

Fans and viewers of other people also became disgusted with Jodie’s fans. There was no verdict yet,

but they had already concluded that Simone did it and was randomly attacking others.

Did they not know that the dead should be respected? Moreover, her best friend had previously sided

with Simone against her sc*mbag brother, so she was not in the wrong! It was Leon and Jodie who

were fooling around, so they deserved to be criticized.

Jodie’s fans were truly unreasonable.

People expressed their opinions online, all waiting for Luca to find Simone and ask for the truth.

On the hotel rooftop, Simone felt discomfort in her heart. It was as if someone was cursing her,

someone she cared about.

Since reaching the innate realm, she had become more sensitive to malice. That feeling was so intense

that it had to be true. In this situation, there was only one possibility.

Jodie woke up and exposed the matter of her falling during the live broadcast, then poured the dirty

water on herself. Not only did her fans curse Simone, but they also cursed the people she cared about.

Someone must have deliberately set the tone, and it formed a malicious verbal attack, trying to provoke

and disturb her mind. Then, it would trigger her inner anger and make her less rational.

Simone picked up her coffee and took a sip, wondering why the person behind her had to resort to

such tactics. Was Jodie going to confront her? Knowing her personality, she definitely would not come

herself, though.

At that point, there was no way she could climb back up. In that case, someone would step up and

defend her. Could it be Sc*mbag No. 3 or Sc*mbag No. 5?

Fine. If Jodie and her backers want to play, I’ll play along till the end.

The hospital was not far from the hotel, and there was no traffic on the way. After about ten

ninutes. Luca arrived at the hotel. Jonah also came along with the assistant director.

Luca asked the production team and found out that Simone was having afternoon tea on the top floor,

so he angrily took the elevator up.

While Jodie was suffering on the hospital bed, she was leisurely enjoying her afternoon tea! How

heartless could she get? It was difficult for him to accept that his sister could be this ruthless.

Soon, he arrived at the restaurant on the top floor. At a glance, he saw Simone and her companions

sitting at a table by the floor–to–ceiling window. He walked over quickly.

She and her companions also noticed Luca. Zac and Harry were a bit puzzled. Why is he here? And

why does he look so angry?

Simone, on the other hand, was not surprised. She was torn between Sc*mbag No. 3 and Sc*mbag

No. 5. Sc*mbag No. 3, who was arrogant and impulsive, was more easily manipulated and instigated.

Luca approached her table, then looked at her intently and said, “Simone, I have a question.”

She looked up at him and said, “Go ahead.”

He questioned, “Do you know about Jo’s accident?”

She nodded and replied. “Yes, I heard from the production team.”

He continued. “Is it just hearsay? Or was it you who caused it?”

Simone did not change her expression but smiled and asked, “Did she tell you that?”

Luca said, “She mentioned that before she fell down the stairs, she had a sudden moment of

confusion, and her bracelet suddenly broke. That’s why she stepped on the beads and fell. She

believes that it was caused by unnatural means. There was a hint of complexity in his eyes. “And

among the guests and the production team, you’re the only geomancy master capable of such

unnatural means.”

She had yet to speak when Zac exploded first. “Just because Simone is a geomancy master, you

suspect her of foul play? Are you out of your mind? You believe that scheming stepsister with more

tricks up her sleeve than a sieve, and you accuse your sister just to make her uncomfortable?”

Luca frowned. “But besides her, who else would resort to such unnatural means? They’re always

against each other.” He looked at Simone and said, “It’s one thing to have a little argument, like when

you slapped her last time and made her face hurt. Titus was also hit by you last time. But because it

didn’t cause substantial physical harm, they didn’t bother with you. This time, however, was too far. Jo’s

forehead was cut deeply, and it’ll leave a scar after it heals, disfiguring her. Her hand and leg were also

fractured; it was painful. She’s also afraid that you’ll continue to hurt her, keeping her in pain and not

getting better.”

Simone sneered. “So, you’re saying that just because I know geomancy mystical arts, I’m the culprit?

Just because I had conflicts with her, I’d intentionally harmed her in the live broadcast? I’m not taking

that blame.” She looked at Luca with a disgusted look. “You didn’t even bother to ask or investigate,

and you concluded that it was me who harmed her. You rushed in front of everyone and the live

audience, accusing me without evidence. I know you have an unusual relationship with her, but you

don’t have to be so malicious and determined to destroy me for her sake.”

Sc’mbag No. 3 always believed that whatever he thought was true. He did not realize he was being

manipulated by Jodie.

He noticed Simone’s gaze and could not help but feel anxious. He quickly clarified, “That’s not what I

meant, and I didn’t accuse you without any evidence. I also find it hard to believe that you’d do

something so ruthless, which is why I came here to ask you.”

She responded coldly, “Your previous questioning didn’t imply that.”

“You may not want to believe it, but your actions suggest otherwise. Jodie claimed it was me. and

you’re determined that I’m the only one capable of it. So, where’s your evidence?”

Zac added, “Simone wasn’t even present when she fell down the stairs.”

“So, you’re suggesting she could be competing in a motorcycle race and still manage to conspire

against Jodie?”

Luca’s thought process was incomprehensible; he blindly believed everything.
