Chapter 78

Aiden quickly chimed in. “Yes, Dad, you see, even Hailey agrees to it, so I'm sure you don’t have any objections n

Thomas thought for a moment before finally agreeing to it. “Alright then, go ahead and do it.”

“Dad!” Kenneth called out, his face full of disapproval.

Thomas waved dismissively and said. “Aiden is grown up now and has his own plans. Let him handle it

Hearing that, Kenneth fell silent.

Aiden immediately said, “Don’t worry. I'll make sure the company earns money.

After this, Aiden’s fondness for Hailey grew immensely. Before leaving, he secretly called Hailey aside, handed

her a bank card, and told her to feel free to spend whatever was in the card. He even tried to adopt a fatherly

demeanor.

Selena kept a calm face but could not bring herself to meet Hailey’s gaze, the guilt palpable in her eyes.

Rose, on the other hand, remained quiet and sullen. Before leaving, she shot Hailey a fierce glare, her expression

filled with hatred, as if she wanted to tear Hailey apart.

However, Hailey was unaffected by it. She smiled back at Rose in a rather provocative manner.

This only made Rose even more furious

“It's getting late, so Dad, we'll take our leave now,” Kenneth said.

Thomas gave a slight nod. “Alright, be careful on the road”

“Got it. Dad“ With that, Kenneth and his family left

By now, it was already 10 o'clock. Normally, this would be the tfor Thomas to rest, but he remained seated

on the sofa.

Eliza, as perceptive as ever, said, ‘lll go take a shower upstairs,” she said.

“Okay, sleep early” Hailey smiled.

After watching Eliza head upstairs. Thomas finally said, “Come, sit for a while.”

Hailey

lowered her gaze and made her way to the sofa, sitting quietly.

Thomas had lived a long life and was as shrewd as they come-there was no way he could not tell what Hailey

was up to.

He sighed and looked at Hailey.

“Hailey, | have sidea of what you're planning. But no matter what it is, | only ask one thing”

Hailey looked up. “What is it, Grandpa?”

“Give that worthless son of mine a chance to live, and give the Dalton Group a way out,” Thomas said, his eyes

filled with

Hailey’s throat tightened, and she took a deep breath. Then it depends on the kind of sins my father has

committed, and whether he can still keep his life.”

Thomas closed his eyes and sighed helplessly. “It’s all my fault for not raising him properly.”

Chapter 78

Hailey was silent for a while before she said, “It's getting late, Grandpa. You should get srest”

With that. Hailey headed straight upstairs.

When she returned to her room, the first thing she felt was that her room had been rummaged through

Everything seemed to be in its place, but upon closer inspection, there were small shifts in the arrangement.

K83%

With an impassive face, she walked over and restored everything to its original position, before opening her

computer.

Her computer had a special program that recorded the twhenever it was accessed.

She glanced at the last recorded access time.

It was 9:40 pm.

At that time, she was at Christopher's apartment, while Selena should have been at the Dalton Mansion,

There was nothing of importance on her computer, just her old and revised drafts of Thrilling Suspense.

But now, those files had all been deleted.

Hailey let out a soft sigh

‘Seems like history is repeating itself, Hailey thought

In the previous timeline, Selena had stolen from her, and now, Selena was stealing from her again. It seemed

nothing had changed

In that case, she had no reason to hold back.

Hailey leaned back in her chair, a trace of coldness flickering in her eyes.

It was a Monday, and the skies were clear.

There was only a week left until winter break.

As the break drew nearer, all the students were more excited than usual, and today was no different

When Hailey entered the classroom, she immediately saw that everyone was chatting excitedly about

something.

Selena’s seat, in particular, was surrounded by a circle of people.

Even Mateo, who had been avoiding Selena recently and was no longer in that class, was now once again

standing by her

seal.

After the previous incident, people’s impression of Mateo had worsened considerably.

Mateo received a legal complaint the next day. With no other option, he clarified the situation on the school

forum, admitting that there was no romantic connection between him and Hailey, and that it was solely his own

one-sided pursuit.

This explanation caused his reputation to plummet even further.

However, everyone's impression of Selena was still the sas before.

“Hailey, is your sister really that impressive? Is this news real or fake?” a classmate asked with curiosity, holding

his phone up to Hailey.

Chapter 78

Hadey planned at the weren

It was a trending tople, at the top of the newsfeed

someone had exposed the true identity of the reclusive author of River, revealing that the was none other than

the daughter of the dion family and also the up-and-coming entertainment star. Selena.

The informant claimed to have encountered Selena in the library, where her computer was open while the

searched for research materials. As a fan of Thrilling Suspense, they instantly recognized the manuscript on her

screen

The informant initially did not believe it, so they secretly took a few photos and recorded a video while waiting

nearly for the owner of the computer to return.

When Selena cback and discovered what had happened, she was visibly angered, questioning the informant

about why they were snooping on her computer.

The person apologized first, but then excitedly asked if Selena was the author of Thrilling Suspense.

Under the relentless questioning of the fan, Selena had no choice but to admit it.

The incident caused quite a commotion in the library, drawing a crowd of curious onlookers. The once quiet

library instantly turned into a fan-gathering scene.

It was the leaked video of this encounter that made Selena go viral overnight. A wave of comments poured in

below the post.

JOMG, she’s so pretty and talented-I'm totally in love!]

[I can’t believe it! My idol is actually the author of my favorite This is unreal!]

[Selera is literally a 's female lead-heiress of a major corporation, a famous actress, and now the writer of a

bestselling book? What kind of legendary combination is this? She's totally blessed by the heavens!]

[I don’t know. Something about this seems off. Is this just a publicity stunt for Thrilling Suspense before its

release!]

[Bruh, you're just jealous.]

Public opinion was divided.

Whether it was just a publicity stunt or the truth, one thing was certain-Selena had skyrocketed to fame. In just

five or six hours since the news broke, her follower count had surged by nearly two million.

“Is it true or not? Don’t telleven you don’t know?” that classmate asked.

Hailey cast a cool glance at them. “You can ask Selena yourself

With that, she sat down at her seat, showing no further interest in the matter.
