Chapter 107
Brielle screamed in panic, quickly distancing herself away from him.
“You’re crazy! I don’t even know who you are! Guards! Guards, take this psycho away!”
The guards grabbed onto the man and restrained him.
As the man struggled, his mask loosened from his face.
Although only half of his face was exposed, Ariana managed to recognize who he was.
It was Lynch.
The reporters seemed to realize this, too, and began to fervently snap pictures of him.
The noise echoed through the hall and there were so many flashing lights that it became difficult to see.
The whole hall was plunged into chaos.
People heard the commotion and began storming in to see what was happening, and Ariana was being pushed and shoved by the crowd.
The person in front of her was almost knocked over.
Ariana quickly caught her and held her up, warning, “Be careful.
Don’t fall.
”
Unexpectedly, Lynch, who was being forced from the stage by the security guards, heard Ariana’s voice and stiffened.
Suddenly, Lynch’s head snapped in her direction.
He instantly recognized her face, and his eyes widened.
He became ferocious and screamed at her, “It was you! You’re the woman from that night!”
Ariana was shocked for a moment.
Then she quickly lowered her head and avoided his gaze.
She turned around hastily and tried to hide amongst the crowd.
“Damn it! You bitch! How dare you lie to me! I’ll make you pay! I’ll kill you!” Despite his cruses, Lynch’s roar was filled with anguish and desperation.

Ariana’s breath hitched in her throat.
His shouts frightened her.
Fortunately, the guards forced him away and pulled him out of the hall.
His roars soon faded, and the noises of the crowd took over.
Everyone went on and assumed Lynch was out of his mind.
Soon, sirens sounded outside, and the ambulance arrived.
The injured assistant was carried away on a stretcher, and the reporters and stars gradually left.
The press conference ended in haste.
As the crowd dwindled, Ariana made her way backstage and witnessed the mess that was in the aftermath.

Brielle had already run in there, avoiding the cameras.
She was still in shock.
The sulfuric acid had splashed on the back of her hand and burnt a bit of her skin.
She was crying and cursing about what had happened but made no mention of the fact that she pulled her assistant in harm’s way to protect herself from the acid.

When she saw Ariana enter, Brielle’s sobs subsided for a moment as she glared daggers at Ariana.
She snapped, “What are you looking at? Are you happy to see me in trouble? Are you satisfied?”
Ariana was careful not to say anything in reply or show any emotion, But this only seemed to anger Brielle even more.
She was paranoid that Ariana was gloating at her misfortune, laughing at her.
Brielle was full of loathing.
She was supposed to be celebrated and praised today.
She couldn’t understand why things turned out like this.
Ariana quietly listened to Brielle’s baseless scolding, but she sneered in her heart.
Without saying a word, Ariana calmly took her bag and left.
When she went out, she bumped into Jasper, who seemed to be rushing over, But Ariana didn’t even raise her head, as if she didn’t see him at all.
She passed by him silently and exited the building.
Jasper was furious, so he wasn’t in the mood to stop Ariana.
He burst into the backstage area and stomped over to Brielle.
When Brielle saw Jasper, she felt even more aggrieved and complained, “Jasper, you’re finally here! You have no idea how scared I was! Someone tried to pour sulfuric acid on my face!”
Tears fell from Brielle’s eyes as she wailed.
Her crying face was somewhat pitiful.
Any man’s heart would soften if they saw it.
