Framed
She acted as she always did, tilting her face up and using her watery eyes to act cute with her most doting second brother. As long as she did this, he would agree to anything.
Noah, as expected, felt heartbroken. He gently patted Sylvia’s head, comforting her.
“Don’t worry, I’ll handle the script thing. Right now, the more important thing is to find out who hired the marketing account to smear Hope with a fake account.”
Sylvia was confused. “Are you helping Hope clear her name?”
Wait, did her brother actually care about Hope? Even though he always said he didn’t

like her, was he still treating her like a sister??
Seeing Hope being criticized, Noah couldn’t t help but want to help her?
Noah was disgusted. “Who’s helping her? I’m just worried that when people find out you and she are considered ‘sisters, they’ll think you can’t stand her and are secretly behind the smear campaign.”
Sylvia pouted, tears welling up as she stared at her hands. “But Sis Hope did break my hand.”
“The script and the marketing account scandal will both be exposed, and Hope’s medical qualification certificate has been confirmed to be real. The public will only suspect the broken hand is part of your self–directed drama. They won’t believe Hope broke did it.”

Noah suddenly thought of something. “This wasn’t you using a fake account, right?”
Sylvia knew she couldn’t lie to him. “Yeah, it was me. But I’m not mad at Sis Hope for breaking my hand. I just felt bad that you got hurt because of her. If she leaves the show, you can move to the rooftop, and you won’t have to fight with our big brother anymore.”
“I’m sorry, brother. I know I was wrong. Woo woo…”
“Brother, I’ll publicly apologize to Sister, and I’ll quit the industry. I won’t drag you down anymore!”
“Don’t,” Noah said, feeling a little shaken. He couldn’t believe his innocent and pure sister was starting to scheme. But when he thought about how her change was for his

sake, he couldidn’t help feeling guilty insidele.
“It’s my fault. litshshouldn’t have let you get et involved in this inesess.”
“You’re my favoriteter brother, of course I haveve to protect you!“!”
Noah’s heart flutteredealsasche held Sylvia tighter.
“You’re my favorite sister,anthenonly sister I thave.”
““Don’t worry about this. I’ll find sosomeone to ttake the fall.”

pictures of my hand and the CT scans is either a doctor or a nurse, or it must have been Grace.”
“I’ll handle it, Noah said firmly.
Doctors and nurses wouldn’t spend tens of thousands of dollars bribing a marketing account to smear Hope. It must be Grace!
Noah made a call to his studio. “Fire Grace and release a public statement saying she secretly colluded with a marketing account to smear Hope. This matter has nothing to do with the studio or the artists.”
“Won’t Grace come after us?” Sylvia asked, worried.
“What’s she gonna do? If she hadn’t failed to complete the task, she wouldn’t have dragged you down.”

“But…”
“Don’t worry. My agent will take care of this. From now on, don’t get involved personally. Let me handle it..”
“Thank you, brother!”
“Let’s go home.”
The siblings linked their fingers together and walked into the Newton family estate.
Hope jumped down from the wall, saving the video she secretly filmed on her phone.
A few minutes later, Sylvia posted on her Twitter.
Sylvia recorded an apology video, apologizing again for obstructing traffic,

wasting public resources, and the marketing account smearing Hope. She apologized, but still pretended to be innocent, claiming she didn’t know anything, and it was Grace who had manipulated everything.
She said that it was Grace who made her put her hand in the fence.
She didn’t understand anything and just listened to whatever Grace said.
She apologized for her naivety and ignorance.
Grace wasn’t happy and started fighting with Sylvia on Twitter. But in just a few minutes, her account was suspended.
It was clearly Noah’s studio’s doing.

opinion on the internet quickly tilted in favor of Sylvia. The public believed Sylvia was just a pure, innocent newcomer who didn’t know about buying marketing accounts to smear Hope.
It was Grace who had been in the industry for decades, who must have learned how to stir up trouble.
Hope suddenly noticed a post from a small account on Twitter.
User–7898093: Sylvia! I never expected you to be the one with the deepest scheming! I really misjudged you! You guys are ruthless, even shutting me down and threatening me!
Hope was about to click on the comment section when she saw that the account had been suspended too.

Noah was truly going all out this time.
Thinking about the video on her phone, Hope sent an email to Grace with the video, writing:
“You got played. Even I feel bad for you. Keep this video safe. If you post it now, the Newtons will bury it. If you trust me, wait for my signal. You’ll get your revenge.”
“You’ll have your chance to take revenge.”
Grace replied quickly with a simple Thanks and a phone number.
Hope memorized it instantly.Grace would be one of the hammers that would knock Sylvia down from her pedestal!
But to knock someone off their pedestal, you first have to let them climb to the top. Hope

wanted Sylvia to struggle, to finally reach thee peak of the entertainment industry, only too come crashing down.
She wanted to make Sylvia desperate, miserable, and struggling!
“Why aren’t you wearing shoes?” Easton’s voice suddenly rang out.
Hope quickly composed herself, afraid that her resentful expression would scare Easton. She lowered her head to calm her emotions.
When she looked up again, a smile appeared on her face. “I’m just so excited to see the herb garden!”
Actually, she had only just noticed that the garden was filled with the herbs she had wanted to grow, and every plant was growing beautifully, better than what the local

farmers had cultivated.
Easton handed her a pair of slippers. “Put these on. Don’t run around barefoot in the yard. You’ll hurt yourself.”
“Okay, I won’t do it again.” Hope obediently put on the shoes.
“Did James hire someone to plant the herbs? Was it expensive?” Hope thought about the luxury car they rented yesterday.
She was worried Easton’s wallet was taking a hit. Buying all these herbs couldn’t have been cheap.
If Easton had been squeezed by the old witch, he probably didn’t have much money left.
Easton’s eyes flickered. “I hired a regular

gardener to plant them. It wasn’t expensive!”
Not far away, James’s eyelids twitched. Regular gardener?
He had clearly hired a professional herbal cultivation team disguised as gardeners to plant the herbs.
Hope opened her phone, typing away. After a while, Easton’s phone rang.
Easton checked it and saw that Hope had transferred some money to him.
“This is my earnings from the show! I’m giving you half!”
“Why are you giving me this?”
Hope’s cheeks turned pink. “Well… marital
assets, I guess.”

Easton was stunned, then looked at thehe many zeros in his bank account. A wave of of guilt swept through him.
But he had never said he was poor…
Should he tell Hope?
Seeing Hope’s money transfer, he wondered if she would be upset that he hadn’t been honest with her.
He was reluctant to let go of Hope’s care for him.
He didn’t want to hide everything from her, but he was also afraid she would be angry when she found out. So he decided to take things step by step.
