[Thank you, Mr. Sinclair, for supporting Sloane’s sister!!!]

[Am I the only one who noticed that Mr. Sinclair’s ID and Sloane’s sister’s ID are like couple IDs?]

[...I’ve been wanting to say this for ages!]

[Finally soone noticed!!!]

Sloane Hawthorne’s ID is "Dawn," and that person’s is "Dusk."

Together, they’re "Dawn and Dusk."

The netizens initially wanted to continue the discussion but then saw the notification of Selena Kensington entering the live stream.

When the ssage [Welco, administrator Selena Kensington, to Sloane’s live stream] popped up, Selena paused.

Alright, just how much permission did Jonah Hawthorne give her?

Could she be the administrator of all the live streams?

[Director Kensington is here too!!! Did she co to see Sloane?!]

[Raise the banner, sisters! We never admit defeat!]

[Whoa! I haven’t even started shipping Dawn and Dusk, and the fire is already doused?!]

[Stay firm, sisters! This ti I’m choosing to support Dawn and Dusk!]

[Director Kensington belongs with Patriarch Norwood! Your fire will be put out! Ship Dawn and Dusk, sisters!]

After that, the netizens in the live stream started arguing over different ships.

"..."

Selena Kensington never expected this scene and remained silent for a long ti.

Sloane Hawthorne noticed Selena entering and was surprised for a mont.

She then beca a bit nervous because Silas Sinclair was still in the live stream.

She was just thankful she hadn’t turned on the cara; otherwise, Selena would surely see her nervousness and anxiety.

"Welco, sister, for inspection~"

Her tone was light and gentle, no different from usual.

Sloane’s fans also followed her lead and flooded the chat.

[Welco, Director Kensington, for inspection!]

[Welco, Director Kensington, for inspection!]

[...]

After doing this, Sloane Hawthorne breathed a sigh of relief, then opened WeChat to send Silas Sinclair a ssage.

[Dawn]: From now on, you are not allowed to speak! Be invisible!

[Dusk]: ?

Silas Sinclair felt a mont of frustration upon seeing Sloane’s ssage. Was he really that unwelco?

But considering he had finally gotten closer to Sloane and that she hadn’t been rejecting him lately, even agreeing to his requests occasionally, Silas decided to hold back.

When he finally gets the chance, he definitely plans to flaunt it!

Selena Kensington saw Sloane’s ssage and chuckled, but she didn’t reply. Instead, she showered her with gifts.

After that, she generously hopped to several live streams, gifting them as well before closing the app.

Days later, Selena Kensington headed to Stardust Entertainnt.

After a few days of testing, the Starstruck APP had already sparked a lot of discussion online.

With recomndations and reviews from various software reviewers, even those who hadn’t participated in the testing were eagerly anticipating.

They all flocked to Starstruck APP’s official Weibo, urging them to quickly open all slots.

When Selena arrived at Hugh Kensington’s office, Jonah Hawthorne was already inside.

"What’s up?"

Selena asked.

She made a special trip to Stardust today because Hugh told her there was sothing to discuss.

It wasn’t convenient to talk over the phone, so Selena ca by personally.

"Sis, your previous suspicions were correct. Sidney Dalton indeed targeted people in Jonah’s team."

"Oh?"

Selena raised an eyebrow and sat on a nearby sofa.

"Explain in detail."

Then Jonah Hawthorne explained, "Due to previous lessons, I was very cautious in selecting the team mbers this ti."

"I basically selected them after thorough investigations and screenings."

Previously, Jonah had been betrayed by a partner, leading to a period of decline. If not for Selena finding him, he might have stayed in that slump.

And because Selena saved him, Jonah was very careful in selecting the team mbers this ti, keeping the collaboration with Stardust highly confidential.

"Sidney Dalton, upon discovering the collaboration between Stardust and Starstruck, sent soone to bribe a mber of my team nad Dickens Grant."

"Dickens is from a remote place, proud yet talented, but he hasn’t had opportunities to showcase his skills. Sidney thought he could be easily bribed, just by offering more enticing rewards."

"But they forgot that, despite his flawed character, Dickens is very loyal. I discovered him, so he’s very grateful to . The mont Sidney approached him, he told imdiately."

"Afterward, I inford Hugh about it, and we planned to counteract, making Sidney believe Dickens was already bribed, feeding him several useless pieces of information."

Selena listened to Jonah’s explanation, a smile appearing on her lips.

"The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind?"

Sidney Dalton thought he had control over Dickens, but little did he know, from the start, Dickens was baiting him into a trap.

And the information provided to Sidney wasn’t Starstruck’s top secrets, just so minor developnt details.

Upon receiving this information, Sidney imdiately passed it to the team under Radiance for research.

As a result, Sidney invested considerable funds, only to find out he’d been deceived in the end.

"Exactly."

Hugh Kensington nodded.

"His intention was to sabotage our collaboration with Starstruck, but his cleverness backfired!"

Sidney Dalton has always believed that as long as the incentives are high enough, no person is out of reach.

He was also confident he had pinpointed Dickens’s weaknesses, thinking he had control over him.

Selena gave a mocking smile.

Sidney, always smooth sailing, has beco arrogant by nature.

But his glee won’t last long; the past grievances she intends to repay, little by little!

"You two take charge of this matter; I’m reassured."

"Okay."

After discussing this, Selena glanced sowhat helplessly at Jonah Hawthorne.

"Jonah, you gave such an overpowered account."

Jonah and Hugh exchanged a look, "Miss Kensington, rest assured. Only the three of us, you, Hugh, and I, have accounts like that."

This was sothing Jonah decided on when he first developed the software.

Selena was a benefactor to him; Jonah saw no problem in giving her certain privileges in his designed software.

Hearing Jonah’s words, she understood this as his way of repaying her kindness.

So she nodded, saying nothing further.

Her phone rang.

Selena opened it to take a look.

It was an unknown number, but the number’s location was... Stonefall.

Upon seeing the location, Selena instinctively stood up.

"I’m going out to take a call."

Leaving this remark, Selena hurriedly exited Hugh’s office.
