Chapter 4 A trace of sarcasm appeared in Lucys eyes.
Why wouldnt a live show be suitable for her? She could use it to gain new fans and clear her name.
It was a perfect opportunity.
It was just that Gracie wanted this variety show, so they were finding all sorts of reasons to force her out.
In her past life, she naively thought Cohen was looking out for her.
She never considered that he was doing it all for Gracie.
Lucy sneered, Whether its suitable or not is up to me.
Im definitely going on this show.
Cohens tone grew colder.
Lucy, Michal and I are only doing this for your own good.
Dont be so willful.
What? Not giving the spot to Gracie means Im being willful? Lucy said coldly, If you want to please her, I dont care, but dont try to mess with me.
Cohen frowned.
What are you talking about? Whether its nonsense or not, you know in your heart, Lucy scoffed.
Since youre so focused on your dream girl, just get out of my sight and stop disgusting me.
In her previous life, she had given up her spot on the show to Gracie under the persuasion of the Green family and Cohen.
After Gracie appeared on the show, the Green family gave her full-scale marketing.

Cohen even appeared as a mysterious guest on the show, subtly taking care of her.
Thats when Lucy realized that Cohen knew Gracie in private and had a deep relationship with her.
Gracie used the show to successfully market her little fairy persona and became a huge sensation.
To shut her up, Michal casually gave her a minor role in a small production, claiming it was a good resource.
That drama was buried because the male lead got into trouble.
Gracie was shining brightly while she was in a terrible state.
Later, she finally managed to land a lead role in a movie, shooting in the mountains for more than half a year.
During that time, the Green family didnt contact her, but Cohen visited her every month.
But she always had a hurdle in her heart, which was Cohens care for Gracie on the variety show.
After the filming, she returned to the capital and specially had someone investigate the relationship between the two.
Just in time, her new film was released and became a huge hit.
Due to her outstanding performance, she was nominated for Best Actress.
She had a good chance of winning the award, but before the film festivals awards ceremony could begin, she was kidnapped.
Gracie was kidnapped along with her.
The Green family and Cohen found them immediately.
The kidnappers said during negotiations that they could only release one person first, and the other would remain a hostage.
The Green family chose Gracie without hesitation.
Lucy wasnt surprised by their choice.
Although she was sad, she was mentally prepared.
She looked at Cohen, only to see him raise his hand and choose to save Gracie first! His eyes were full of pity and concern for Gracie, emotions Lucy had never felt.
Her childhood sweetheart gave up on her for Gracie.
This blow left Lucy stunned, unable to recover for a long time.
When Gracie was taken away, Lucy had only one thought: if she could get out, she would cut ties with Cohen and the Green family completely.
As she tried to save herself, the panicked kidnapper suddenly shot her.
A gunshot to the head.
Before she died, she heard Cohen and the Green family yelling her name.
But she felt cold inside, slowly falling into a pool of blood.
She hated them.
In this life, she severed ties with the Green family right away and would have nothing to do with Cohen.
Cohen on the other end of the line was completely unprepared for Lucys words.
His tone became stern, I dont have a dream girl.
Stop talking nonsense! Lucy ignored him and said directly, Cohen, lets break up.
…What? Cohen almost thought he misheard.
I said, lets break up, Lucy repeated.
Cohens face changed immediately.
Lucy! There should be limits to being willful! Im going to pretend I didnt hear that.
I dont care if you heard it or not, Lucy rolled her eyes.
Im informing you, not asking for your consent.
From now on, we have nothing to do with each other.
Cohens voice trembled slightly, confused.
Why? Lucy said directly, If you like Gracie, just go after her.
No one will stop you.
But you want to keep dating me while caring for her? Isnt that shameless? If Cohen had told her from the start that he liked Gracie, she wouldnt have clung to him.
Even if she cared about him, she wouldnt have pursued him.
But he didnt say anything and gave her a heavy blow just before she died.
It was truly disgusting! Dont contact me again! Lucy said, ending the call and deleting and blocking all of his contact information.
On the other side, Cohen, suddenly dumped, was stunned for a while.
He didnt expect that Lucy would find out about his private meetings with Gracie.
He also didnt expect that Lucy, who had always chased after him, would break up so decisively.
This was hard for him to accept, and he started redialing.
After several attempts with no answer, he realized he had been blocked.
Cohen felt an inexplicable emptiness in his chest, as if something valuable was slowly slipping away, never to return… Meanwhile, Lucy put down the phone and immediately forgot about Cohen.
She busied herself with her own matters and pulled out a household registration book from her bag.
Looking inside, there were no other relatives, only herself; she was the household head.
When her master saved her years ago, he had calculated her fortune.
He didnt say anything further but found a deceased familys household registration for her, using connections to transfer her into it, making her the household head.
She remembered the master said this way she would have no more hidden dangers in the future.
Now she realized the master must have foreseen that her family ties would be shallow in this life and hard to force.
After all, having such relatives was worse than not having them, to avoid unnecessary heartbreak.
Coincidentally, after returning to the Green family for over a year, they never mentioned changing her household registration or surname, so she was still on this household registration, alone.
This proved that fate was like this, and she might as well continue being a lone woman; life might be a bit more pleasant.
Looking at the household registration book, she showed a relieved smile.
Having finally gained a chance at rebirth, she would live well.
A good nights sleep.
The next time was spent busy with studio location scouting and signing contracts with the variety show.
After catching up with the director briefly, she signed the contract.
Just as she walked out, she ran into Michal, Ashley, and Gracie! The Green family siblings were chatting and laughing, heading towards the shows production team.
When they saw Lucy, they were all taken aback.
Gracies eyes carried a hint of hidden pride and showiness as she greeted Lucy, Lucy, youre here to sign a contract too? Lucy saw through her showiness at a glance and raised an eyebrow, Youre here to sign a contract too?
