Seeing Wendy trying to refute but coming up empty, Melody felt happier than ever. She finally got revenge on all the grievances she suffered under Wendy's rule.
"What's wrong? Cat got your tongue? Don't tell me you only realize now that you have nothing left to threaten me with anymore, Wendy."
"What do you want, Melody?" Although Wendy realized that she could not threaten her anymore, she refused to give in.
Melody lowered her head and smiled. "I don't want anything. It's just that you used photos to slander me, so I want you to taste what it feels like to be slandered. What was that phrase again? 'Give a taste of their own medicine'?"
The video Melody possessed would subject Wendy to online harassment, but she did not intend to ruin her completely. She simply wanted to deter her from causing trouble again in the future. After all, pushing someone to a dead end, where they had lost all hope, could lead them to act recklessly without considering the consequences. Wendy would be even more troublesome by then. Melody did not want to utterly destroy her, nor did she want to jeopardize her own safety. With this leverage in her hand, Wendy would not dare to do anything against her in the future. What Melody sought was peace of mind.
"As long as you stop bothering me, I'll keep this video forever and make sure that no one else sees it. But if you dare to trouble me again, I'll release this video. You certainly won't be able to survive in the entertainment industry anymore by then. I suggest you weigh the pros and cons before doing anything."
The video would indeed become Melody's greatest leverage in forcing Wendy to behave.
"You b*tch! Just wait, I'll make you regret this." Wendy hastily left, evidently intimidated.
Although she continued to make threatening remarks, it was just a bluff. She genuinely did not dare to confront Melody anymore.
Melody felt considerably relieved as she watched Wendy leave. She finally resolved the major problem that had been giving her headaches.
Wendy left the studio, turned, and glared back fiercely. She had not expected that everything was just a scam. To make matters worse, Melody got leverage that she could use against her whenever she wanted to.
Not knowing how to feel as this was the first time this had ever happened, she got into her car and drove home dejectedly.
Melody retrieved her bag from the chair and took out a USB drive. To prolong the effectiveness of this leverage, she needed to keep the surveillance video secure.
She headed to the control room with the intention of making a copy of the surveillance video. However, as soon as she opened the door, she was startled.
"L...Lucas? What are you doing here?" she asked.
'How did Lucas end up in the control room?' she wondered.
He sat enigmatically in front of the monitors, raising an eyebrow at her. "I heard there would be a good show here, so I came to watch."
Melody furrowed her brow lightly. "When did you get here? You didn't happen to witness everything that just happened, did you?"
Lucas smirked and countered, "Melody, have you ever thought about becoming an actress?"
