The news of Yvette’s hospitalization due to her injures garnered significant media attention. The reporters went all

out, leaving no stone unturned in their quest to uncover the truth. So, when the news spread that Xavier was the

culprit, the media exploded with overwhelming coverage.

Numerous social media accounts jumped on the bandwagen, dishing out “insider informalion.” They used the

statements from other Cosmic Studios employees to fabricate reasons for Xavier’s attack on Yvetle. Some even

went so far as to create detailed recreations of the incident, turning this sensational news that spanned society and

entertainment into a top headline.

Xavier naturally couldn’t evade the consequences of the law, with charges of “intentional assault” and “kidnapping”

being slapped against him. Furthermore, even though lan tumed himself in leading to a reduced sentence, he still

laced two to three years behind bars.

At this moment, Cosmic Studios found itself in utter disarray, with no one at the helm. Some employees had

already started sending out job applications to other similar companies, and the more proactive ones had even

secured new positions through successful interviews.

Cosmic Stud as was falling apart, and the future of “Migration to Mars” became a major concern for everyone.

Although this project was still in the planning stage, most of the funding had already been secured, and some roles

had been cast with contracts signed.

The core creative team was almost complete, and il cther film companies were interested in taking over the IP

from Xavier, there was still a possibility for the movie to move forward.

However, just as everyone was cinsely eyeing the project Fantasy Uhopla released a statement declaring the

premature termination of their collaboration with Cosmic Studios. Additionally, Stephen del Rio, who was supposed

to direct the film, announced that he would no longer be involved in the project on his social media account

Both Fantasy Utopia and Stephen del Rio were vital to the movie’s potential success at the box office. With their

departure. “Migration to Mars” went from being a highly sought–after gem to an unwanted piece of trash that no

are wanted to touch.

So even if Xavier were willing to sell the IP, no one was willing to take over it. As the move fell through, the biggest

losers were the investors who had rushed to get involved earlier. They had invested a substantial amount of money,

much of which Xavier nad squandered. To recover their losses, they had no choice but to hire lawyers and sue in

hopes of auctioning off Xavier’s properties through the court to claim compensation.

times. The court officials would show up and ruthlessly evict her every time she was still sorting out her belongings.

When the last property was sealed, she stood outside with her luggage, and her fear peaked. Her father was now a

criminal in prison, and her mother was lying in the hospital lighting for her life. As for hersell, she was divorced,

broke and had no place to call home. She had no idea where to go next.

In her most desperate moment, she decided to seek refuge at her grandparents home. Although the Seymour

family had been wealthy for generations, it was only during Xavier’s time that they secured their position in high

society, largely due to Xavier’s achievements.

The Seymour family had never been known for its large size, and Lana’s grandparents only had two children, Xavier

and her aunt. Being the successful child Xavier naturally received all of his parents‘ love. Despite their disapproval

of Yvelle, they had always doled on Lana because of her association with Xavier..

However, Lana never expected to be stopped by the housekeeper right at the front gate.
