Sylvic had seen a fair share of things during her time in the entertainment industry. yet none compared
to the humiliation she felt at that moment
Alone and helpless, Sylvic‘s panicked gaze darled around the space.
Bruce said he would help me because he owed someone. Where the heck is he when I‘m in trouble
now?
Alas, instead of spotting Bruce. Sylvie saw Genevieve.
Genevieve crossed her arms over her chest and stood lazily with her legs slightly ajar. Their gazes met
for two seconds, yet the contempt in Genevieve‘s gaze immediately confirmed her identity
as the mastermind behind Sylvic‘s public shaming.
Meanwhile, Rocco strode toward Svivic and rugged at her gown. “Babe, why don‘t I help you
undress?”
Sylvie held onto her gown with all her might, near tears from the ignominy of the situation.
Just as Rocco was about to tear Sylvie‘s gown apart, a hand shot out and seized Rocco‘s wrist in a

painful grip.
It belonged to Zayne, who even pushed Rocco away once the playboy loosened his hold out of pain.
Zayne frowned and demanded, “Call yourself a man! How can you bully a weak woman?”
Rocco massaged his throbbing wrist, glancing at the young man before turning his attention back to
Sylvie. He taunted, “What? Are you her lover too”
“I‘m her younger brother. I heard every word of what you said earlier.” declared Zayne.
He had chanced upon the dinner and saw Rocco making fun of Sylvie, though he had not planned on
intervening until he saw the crowd pressuring Sylvie to undress. Zayne‘s conscience got the better of
him, and he stepped forward to help her.
“Oh;” Rocco added suggestively, “The kind of brother she hugs to sleep?”
Zayne‘s temper snapped, and he exploded, “Clean that filthy mouth of yours! Even if she‘s not blood–
related to the Zeigler family. Grandpa dotes on her. Don‘t even think of picking on her!”

Rocco could tell from his words that he was a member of the Zeigler family. Zaynie looked younger
than twenty years old, and Rocco guessed that lie was Felix Zeigler‘s youngest son.
“Though Rocco often flirted with trouble, even he knew it was unwise to court trouble from the Zeiglers.
Thus, be shrugged silently in response to Zayne‘s outburst.
Satisfied, Zayne turned to look at Sylvie and said, “He was obviously slandering you. Do you want him
to apologize?”
“It‘s fine,” Sylvic replied with a shake of her head.
She was hardly a fool. When Zaync had rerumned to the hotel to save her from her orchestrated
suicide attempo, Sylvic already knew he was helping her because of her alleged friendship with Stella

His sudden appearance and offer of help to Sylvie filled Coco with fear, and the latter instinctively
looked to Genevieve for instruction.
Genevieve‘s expression had darkened as the situation unfolded.
She was only at the dinner to humiliate Sylvie, and she never imagined that a Zeigler would step
forward to save Sylvie from her doom.
Genevieve took out her phone and sent Coco a few things over WhatsApp. Then, she turned to look for
Jack.
While he stood some distance away from Sylvie‘s fiasco, he had kept a close eye on how things were
progressing.
When Genevieve arrived by his side, he hooked an arm around her waist and smiled at her. “Your little
gift for Sylvie scems to have failed.”
Genevieve was in a poor mood and did not wish to entertain his jokes. “If you‘re busy. I‘m going back
alone.”
“I brought you here to have fun. If you‘re bored, let‘s leave together.” Jack returned his champagne flute
to a passing waiter and ushered Genevieve out of the place.
