The next morning, Amara was leisurely tidying up her apartment, getting ready to head to the film set.


    Suddenly, her phone buzzed like crazy. Notifications poured in from all directions. With a growing sense of dread, Amara opened the app to see what all the fuss was about.


    Just a few minutes ago, a trending topic had erupted on Twitter, simply titled "Amarise."


    The moment she saw it, her gut twisted with a sense of foreboding. Clicking on the link, she found a pinned post by a user named "Emma." The post was a scathing rant about her so-called "screenwriter ex-daughter-inw" who had supposedly refused to let go even after the divorce.


    Emma imed she''de home to find her former daughter-inw lingering at her ex-husband''s family home, allegedly disrespectful and causing such distress that she had to resort to calming pills.<fn1454> Content originallyes from Find★Novel</fn1454>


    The Twitter post painted the "ex-daughter-inw" as a shameless woman clinging to her ex, and it made Amara''s blood boil. Emma was a verified user, leaving no doubt that it was indeed her.


    Amara, Finnian, and Liliana''s saga had already been a hot topic online for quite some time. Finnian, as the CEO of the Everly Group, was always in the spotlight, and Liliana was a top actress. With such prominent figures involved, the drama had spread far and wide, fueling the public''s curiosity about the trio''s entanglements.


    Now, with Emma''s post, people were quick to join the fray, leaving nastyments under the tweet: "Seriously? Divorce means you stay away. How shameless can you get to hang around after a divorce?"


    "Shouldn''t you cut tiespletely after a divorce? And Amarise, wasn''t she rumored to have had some botched cosmetic surgery? She''s hideous, she should stay far away to avoid sickening others. She''s got no shame!"


    Thements were harsh, many from users with IDs suggesting ties to Liliana, clearly her fans.


    Amara''s eyes darkened as she steeled herself not to get upset and shut off her phone.


    Elysia and Keith, her close friends, texted her about the situation. Both of them unleashed a tirade against Emma, promising to help get the trending topic suppressed, urging Amara not to worry.


    Elysia and Keith had connections and resources. True to their word, they spent real money to push the trending topic down the list, but


    Emma was no pushover. As he


    the


    matriarch of the Everly family, she had substantial wealth and influence, and she managed to w the trend back up.

    The back-and-forth battle over the trending topic amazed onlookers, who watched


    it rise and fall with bated breath.


    Amara texted Elysia and Keith,


    asking them to stop trying to suppress the trend. Emma was in a frenzy, and the more people


    opposed her the more relentine


    she became. It was a futile tug-of-war that would only drain everyone''s resources.  s


    While she didn''t care about Emma''s money, she was concerned about Elysia and Keith''s expenses. Once she exined, they agreed, and the topic remained stuck at the top of the list.


    Despite losing some time, Amara arrived at the set on schedule.


    As she stepped onto the set, she could feel the eyes on her, hear the whispers as


    people gossiped, clearly aware of the drama trending online.


    It was unsettling, but Amara kept reminding herself that this would all get sorted out eventually. Repeating her mantra not to get angry, she headed towards the break room, determined to keep her cool.  s
