Even though the show was over, not a single person in the audience got up to leave.

Everyone whipped out their phones, ready to watch the unfold, their eyes glued to the interviews

happening on stage.

Andrew and Madeline felt like they were sitting on pins and needles all over again.

Noel glared angrily at the gossiping crowd nearby. “She must have copied my sister's work. The real culprit is the

one making accusations first!”

One of the audience members scoffed, “Their evidence is way more complete than yours. you've got proof, bring

it out and let's see.”

During Olivia's performance, a trending actress with a background in dance had already reposted a dance video

called “Chasing the Wind.”

This wasn’t just sspur-of-the-moment move.

She'd actually been teasing her fans for over two weeks, saying she'd discovered a gorgeous dance

choreographed by a friend.

Most of her fans were into dance because of her.

With their idol hyping it up so much, everyone's expectations were through the roof.

When they saw it today, it really was breathtaking, just like everyone hoped.

Everyone was talking about it, and with all the big names in the dance world and professors sharing the video, it

shot straight up the trending charts in no time.

Meanwhile, Olivia’s final dance blew up online thanks to the live stream.

The two trending topics ended up side by side, and when people saw it, they were stunned. Not only were the

names of the dance the same, but even the dance moves were identical.

Normally, people who weren't into dance might just scroll past a video like that.

Since it was about a famous actress and a so-called genius caught up in a plagiarism scandal, suddenly

everyone was interested in this.

With all the back-and-forth and the platform boosting the content, the hype just kept growing.

Seagle-eyed netizens quickly pieced together a timeline.

In Olivia's behind-the-scenes vlog, she spent a lot of tbuilding up anticipation for “Chasing the Wind.”

She even emphasized that the dance was finished only recently and that she'd poured a ton of effort into it.

Just two days ago, she was still tweaking the moves, all to make sure she didn’t let her audience down and could

deliver a flawless performance.

On the other hand, the actress had already teased the video well in advance.

But the real smoking gun was that the actress's friend had uploaded her video way Olivia did.

before

She just kept the video hidden and only made it public ten minutes before the actress reposted it,

According to Olivia, she had only finalized the moves two days before her rehearsal.

But the other girl's video already matched Olivia's finished choreography exactly.

Olivia said she made schanges, but no one could tell what was different, even if they compared it frby

frame.

It was crystal clear who was lying.

Andrew and Madeline weren't as hot-headed as Noel. At this point, they were starting to have their suspicions.

But since things had cthis far, they had no choice but to do their best to protect Olivia's reputation.

They shot a meaningful look at Thomas.

Thomas walked over to Olivia and stepped in front of the reporters. “The law will decide who's right and who's

wrong.

“Please give us sspace. We'll release a statement as soon as we've investigated everything thoroughly. In

the meantime, | ask that you all be careful with what you say.”

But Thomas's ndidn’t mean much there. Otherwise, reporters would've backed off when Lucas stepped up

earlier.

One reporter shoved his phone right in Olivia's face, showing her the dance video the actress had just reposted.

She asked, “Miss Sutton, look at this dance. Do you know this girl? Do you still insist this is your original

choreography?”

When Olivia saw the girl in the video, her pupils contracted sharply.

Olivia thought, ‘How could it be her?

‘That bitch.

‘She actually had a backup plan!”

But then Olivia remembered she’d already wiped every bit of surveillance from that dance studio.

She dug her nails into her palm, forcing herself to stay cool.

She looked even more fragile than usual. Her eyes were brimming with tears.

“I do know her,” Olivia said, her voice trembling.

As soon as she said that, the whole place went wild, and the live chat blew up again.

A person wrote: [She actually admitted it!]

Another person wrote: [Wow, even geniuses stoop to plagiarism?]

and love down the drain.]

Even Lucas was frowning now, his eyes fixed on Olivia.

But what Olivia said next turned everyone’s assumptions upside down.

“But we only met once by chance,” Olivia continued.

She looked at the camera with a mix of anger and heartbreak, as if she were questioning that person through the

lens.

She said, “That day, | had a sudden burst of inspiration, so | found a nearby dance stuto practice.

“After | finished dancing, | noticed a girl filmingfrom behind the glass wall.

“Since this dance was meant to be a surprise for everyone, | asked her to keep it a secret.

“She swore she wouldn't tell anyone, even said she was a fan and asked for my autograph.”

Olivia was breathing rapidly, looking as if she was about to have a panic attack and couldn't catch her breath.

Lucas hurriedly pulled her into his arms, supporting her by the waist and letting her lean on him for support.

Meanwhile, Thomas blocked the reporters, making sure they couldn't get any closer.

Olivia let out a bitter, self-mocking laugh, tears streaming down her cheeks. “I never imagined the person who'd

betraywould be one of my own fans.

“You beggedto let you keep the video for entertainment, and | let my guard down because | felt sorry for

for you.

“But you went and stole everything | poured my heart into.”

She turned to the reporters. “That day, she poured her heart out to me. Her family was a mess, buried in debt,

and she just wanted to make it big through dancing.

“| felt bad for her, so | tried to comfort her and ended up going easy on her.

“But as a dancer and a choreographer, | absolutely refuse to tolerate plagiarism. Everyone here can be my

witness.

Lucas saw the pain on her face and couldn't help thinking, ‘If Roderick were here, he'd never let his girlfriend put

up with this kind of crap.’

Then, with everything going on with Natasha lately, Lucas realized he'd barely checked in on Olivia at all.

Right now, he just felt this restless, frustrated feeling he couldn’t shake.

Lucas snapped, his tone harsh. “Move! Are you trying to push her over the edge?”

He was someone who'd always been in a position of power. When he lost his temper, the force of his authority

instantly cowed a bunch of the reporters.

The audience and the live chat started to waver, moved by Olivia's tearful pleas and Lucas’s angry defense.

Did we really blOlivia for nothing? the viewers wondered.

There were still plenty of things that just didn’t make sense.

The timeline didn’t match her statement. Olivia claimed she'd changed the choreography, yet it was still exactly

the sas the original.

But people were ruled by their emotions, especially since Olivia had always had such a spotless reputation.

She had tons of fans and admirers.

Now that their idol was being backed into a corner, speople just couldn't stay silent

anymore.

A viewer asked: [What if Olivia really got set up? “Chasing the Wind” is such a big deal.

Sfolks in the crowd who really knew what was going on with the Clark family started letting their

imaginations run wild.

A person asked, “It doesn’t have to be someone from the industry. Didn't Natasha show up tonight, too?”

Another person answered, “Don’t forget who's behind her.”

As soon as those words were spoken, the whole place went quiet.

The Clark family and Lucas had overheard all the speculation.

Even though they wanted to speak up for Natasha, things were going their way right now, so they had to keep

quiet for the tbeing.

Deep down, they couldn't help but have the sdoubts.

Of course, for every person throwing out doubts, there were just as many who stood by their original stance and

refused to change their minds.

Olivia was pulling the sympathy card, but the other side had hard evidence. Tears alone weren't going to cut it.

The debate was blowing up, both in real life and all over the internet.

But no one seemed to notice the odd, almost oppressive atmosphere hanging over the front

rows of the theater.

Plagiarism was already bad, but what happened today was on a whole other level.

This was outright theft, snatching away someone else’s creation and even claiming credit for

There was no way she’d ever let someone with a shady reputation in.

When they heard the reporters grilling and the crowd buzzing, nobody rushed to make a judgment.

Instead, everyone whipped out their phones and started digging up all the so-called evidence people were

posting online.

But most importantly, they all wanted to check out that other girl's dance video for themselves.

But then, when they got a good look at Michelle's face, a few people who knew Michelle well couldn't keep a

straight face.

They all glanced over at her, almost in unison.

Michelle's expression was complicated.

She thought, ‘Seriously? Hardship? Buried in debt?

‘A poor student who has to steal someone else’s work just to get ahead?’
