Chapter 117 She Has Been Sued
Before Stella could explain, the call was abruptly ended. Stella clenched her fists in frustration.
That rascal Felix actually tattled to his family.
After scareful thought, Stella concluded that her fall was undoubtedly connected to those children.
How could the hallway be so slippery? And why, of all times, did it have to be right after | fell that Felix and
another kid cover carrying a bucket of mop water? He had somehow managed to spill all the water on me
by sheer coincidence!
Stella really didn’t expect to be bested by a mere kid. The next tshe saw him, she was determined to give
him a hard time.
Just when she was in a fit of anger, her manager inconveniently decided to call. “Stella, there's. trouble. Your
song. Ray of Light in the Dark, has been sued. The inteis in an uproar.”
“Hasn't everything been resolved?” Stella asked, puzzled.

“What do you mean it’s resolved? Go see for yourself. The song belongs to Ms. Cecille, and it was released four
years ago. The song you released is ninety-nine percent similar to hers.” The manager was now as frantic as
ants on a hot pan. “Now, they're not just accusing you of plagiarism, but also claiming you abused your power
and had Ms. Cecille’s lawyer detained for a day. Previously, the chat logs between our assistant and Ms. Cecille’s
stuwere also exposed. Everyone's saying that we couldn't afford to buy others’ compositions and that we
relied on stealing them.”
After hearing that, Stella felt her head throbbing. “Lettake a look first.” She forced herself to stay calm. Upon
unlocking her phone, she was greeted with news of her plagiarism scandal topping the trending list.
Before Stella could gather her thoughts, she saw that the latest post on her Twitter account: a clear conscience
fears no accusation was nearly overwhelmed with comments from fans and passersby.
Oh, so the tables have turned? Those fans who initially claimed there was no plagiarism, do you see it now?
Really, a clear conscience fears no accusation? Stella, won't you explain why a song, remarkably similar to yours,
was released four years prior to your own? Why is it that your song, which is now released, bears a ninety-nine
percent similarity to that one?
Wouldn't you call this plagiarism? You can’t even be bothered to edit a thing; you're just copy-pasting!

Stella meticulously read through each message, genuinely hesitant to casually post on Twitter respond randomly.
She called her manager, “Get in touch with the PR team, quickly.”

had sought out Ms. Cecille’s stufor negotiation when we were first accused, we could have resolved this. But
now... You were so adamant about not plagiarizing in the beginning, even declaring your innocence so boldly.
Even if we spent money to suppress all the trending topics, it would be of no use.”
“Right now, there are only two options. Either we ask for Mr. Rainsworth’s assistance again, or we find Ms. Cecille
personally to apologize,” the manager proposed.

Stella furrowed her brow.
I've just offended that little tyrant, Felix. How can | possibly seek out Nathaniel for help?
She feared that the more she sought his help, the last shred of affection Nathaniel had for her would be
completely extinguished.
The only person | can turn to now is... Ms. Cecille.
Stella couldn’t help but recall Cecilia.
Vivian was Ms. Cecille’s lawyer back then. Could it be that Ms. Cecille is actually Cecilia? It can’t be!
Stella dismissed the thought, acknowledging that Cecille was quite famous abroad and had a substantial number
of fans.
How could Cecilia have beca renowned composer after only a few years abroad? Wasn't she busy
running the company with Calvin's support?
Stella convinced herself it must be a coincidence. She told her assistant, “GetMs. Cecille’s contact «
information. | need to find her myself.”
