Olivia didn’t waste any time.
The next afternoon, Michelle called Natasha.

She said, “Holy shit, Natasha, Olivia is seriously vicious. She hired someone to run me over
with a car!”
Michelle had never dealt with anyone truly evil before, and this was her first time seeing just how cruel people could be.
If Alexei’s men hadn’t stopped the driver Olivia sent and swapped in one of their own to fake the ident, Michelle would have been in real danger.
Olivia wasn’t trying to kill her, just wanted her out ofmission for a while.
But injuries were unpredictable, especially for a dancer. If something went wrong, a broken leg would mean she’d never dance again.
Olivia clearly didn’t give a damn how badly she got hurt.
Michelle was lying in the hospital bed, her leg wrapped up like a mummy, swearing nonstop.
Since they had to keep up appearances, she’d have to stay in the hospital and y the
now.
Michelle said, “My phone andputer were hacked. She was really cautious.
“Even after I told her I didn’t keep the choreography video, she still didn’t buy it.”
She figured Olivia must have dug through every single file on herputer.

Michelle was seriously relieved that the device she was using was the one Natasha had given her specifically to set up Olivia.
“If her personal files had been found, it would have been social suicide for her.”
Michelle, now pissed off, was itching to see the day Olivia got exposed for who she really was.
She thought, ‘Who knows what other shady stuff she’s pulled in secret?
If it had been an ordinary girl who got giarized and hurt, she probably wouldn’t even have anywhere to seek justice.
Natashaforted her for a while, then hung up the phone.

After all these years, Olivia’s methods were still the same old tricks.

The difference was,st time when Olivia giarized Natasha’s work, even though Natasha had all the evidence, the rk family still forgave Olivia.
They even forced Natasha to swallow the bitter pill by leveraging Emilia’s death.
All the evidence was destroyed right while the rk family was watching.
Back then, Natasha had been raised to atone for everything, put others first, and let her guard down around her family.
That was why she’d never been able to fight back.
But people who always cheated the system wouldn’t stay lucky forever.
This time, she was going to make Olivia pay back every bit of what she’d suffered before.

“Naomi.” Olivia called out, stopping her rival as she walked past in the theater.
Inside the theater, Olivia called out to Naomi as she brushed
past.
“Do you need me to rmend a few more people for you?” Olivia asked.
She smiled gently, like the fine young woman she showed in public.
But Naomi knew all too well the ugliness hiding beneath that beautiful facade.
The tour was already more than halfway done, and the show had been getting rave reviews.
But right when they were about to be judged by the master, several key supporting dancers started messing up.
Even with substitutes, the whole team would have to rehearse and adjust all over again just to get back in sync.
No matter how angry the director got, it didn’t change anything.
Naomi, the lead dancer, was the one who suffered the most from all this.
She scoffed, her voice icy, “I wouldn’t dare use your people. You can keep them for yourself.”
Olivia just kept smiling. “I’m only worried about your performance, you know. After all, this is our troupe’s signature show, isn’t it?

“Next time, Ms. Sophia Cox will be watching in person. If everyone finds out you can’t handle the lead, you’ll be humiliated in front of the whole world.”
Naomi sneered, “Only nobodies think they can wreck a show with their petty tricks.”
Olivia’s meddling actually did her a favor. Naomi had already kicked out all the double-
crossers.
The ones left might not be the most talented, but every single one of them was hungry to make a name for themselves.
As long as they had the drive, even if someone was dragging the team down, Naomi could pull them up and get everyone back on track.
But she wasn’t about to swallow this humiliation for nothing. She had a powerful supporter
now.
Once she left the theater, Naomi dialed the number the mysterious investor had given her.
“She seems pretty confident about her solo performance. Can I use her own tricks against her?” Naomi asked.
If Olivia managed to win Sophia over, Naomi would be pissed off.
A light chuckle came from the other end. “No need. Since she’s working so hard, why not add a little fuel to her fire and stir things up?”
Naomi hesitated. “Wouldn’t that just be helping her?”
“Trust me,” a reply came.
Naomi gritted her teeth. “Fine, I’ll do it.”
This was a fight to the death. Either Naomi or Olivia woulde out alive.
Naomi’d either im her ce as the theater’s lead dancer for good, or be forced out of the dance world by Olivia’s revenge,
But now that things were out in the open, she wasn’t going to hold back anymore.
She decided to take a gamble,

When everyone got something to chase after, the days just seemed to fly by.

Soon enough, it was time for Olivia’s big debut.

Thanks to all the buzz the rk family stirred up, tons of big shots from high society showed up tonight.
Andrew and Madeline were all smiles, looking proud as ever.
Lately, ever since Natasha got close to Alexei and broke things off with her family, outsiders started switching sides, and the rk family lost a bunch of major deals.
Andrew and Thomas were scrambling day and night, barely keeping their heads above water.
At this moment, it finally felt like the rk family was regaining some of their former glory.
Even though people questioned Olivia’s character, they had to admit that their investment in her was worth it.
This made them realized why they treated her even better than Natasha.
At least in her profession, Olivia’d earned genuine public recognition.
The title of “genius dancer” brought real prestige to the family name, especiallypared to Natasha who never amounted to much.
The crowd exchanged pleasantries with fake smiles, everyone hiding their true intentions.
When Natasha stepped out of the car arm in arm with Alexei, she instantly drew a wave of
attention.
Gossip traveled fast.
‘Weren’t the rk sisters supposed to be sworn enemies? So why is Miss rk showing up with Mr. Turner to cheer her on?‘ people thought.
But Andrew and Madeline’s faces lit up the moment they spotted Natasha.
Madeline greeted her with a bright smile. “Natasha, you’re here!”
She thought, I knew it. Sisters never hold a grudge overnight.
‘Even though Natasha’s been through a lot because of Olivia, there was always a reason for it.
‘Now, I have thought it through. Emilia’s death wasn’t entirely Natasha’s fault. Natasha has paid her dues over the years.
‘From now on, I’ll try to treat both daughters equally and make it up to Natasha.

Andrew, Thomas, and Noel seemed to be thinking the same thing.

As long as Natasha let go, they could all just sweep everything under the rug and act like one big loving family again.
Madeline said warmly, “This is wonderful! Olivia will be so happy to see you.
“She’s always wanted you to watch her perform on the international stage and keep your dreams alive.”
Natasha almost snorted. That was just ridiculous.
She thought, ‘Why should Olivia be the one to keep my dream going?
‘Wasn’t it Olivia who caused my leg injury in the first ce?
‘Back then, what did they say?
‘They said my leg is not more important than Olivia’s mom’s life. She doesn’t even me me, so I have no reason to take it out on her.
They said that it was because I was stubborn, so I started the fight with Olivia. I insisted on going home, which was why the ident happened.
‘It wasn’t even Olivia’s fault.‘
Natasha’s brows knit in irritation.
“Mr. rk, Mrs. rk, could you please move?” she said coldly.
Andrew and Madeline’s smiles froze on their faces.
“You’re not even going to call us Mom and Dad anymore?” Andrew asked, his voice trembling.
Natasha replied coolly, “I’ve cut all ties with this family.”
Noel’s face darkened, and he looked like he was about to explode, but Thomas quickly grabbed his arm to stop him.
Thomas didn’t push the issue of how she addressed them. He knew her grudge wasn’t something that could be fixed overnight.
“Natasha, you and Mr. Turner didn’t bring tickets. Let me take you inside,” he said instead.
Thomas had just noticed the two of them showed up empty–handed. Then, Natasha casually
took a bouquet of flowers from the driver.
