Wendy's refusal to donate her bone marrow had led to public outrage. Netizens had branded her a "heartless woman," and even questioned whether her previous charity work had been staged for publicity.

In Samantha's past life, Wendy had been a popular actress. Beautiful, talented, and known for her kindness, she had been at the height of her career. But this one incident had destroyed her reputation. The truth, however, was more complicated. Wendy had tried to explain at the time that she hadn't refused to donate out of malice. The bone marrow match had ultimately been unsuccessful. Evch if she had gone through with the donation, it wouldn't have saved the little girl.

Nobody believed her back then. The internet erupted in outrage, accusing her of be calculating. There were rumors that someone had orchestrated the smear campaign enough, Wendy was blacklisted. ruel, and

ner, and soon

It wasn't until years later that a doctor came forward with the real story. He confirmed that Wendy's explanation had been true all along-the bone marrow match hadn't been compatible, and her donation wouldn't have helped. The doctor even provided medical records to prove it.

Unfortunately, the truth came too late. Wendy's popularity had already plummeted. When she attempted a comeback, she could only land roles as the villainous supporting actress.

It seemed that someone had been envious and deliberately orchestrated her downfall. Compared to the other actresses who had been similarly sabotaged, Wendy was the easiest to redeem among them.

After selecting her lead actress, Samantha shifted her focus to the male actors. Clearing their names was a much more difficult task, as their scandals were deeply entrenched in the public eye. It would take considerable time and effort to rehabilitate their reputations. Her attention fell on one name: Leon Ford. She struggled to recall who he was for a moment, but then it clicked. Out of everyone, he was perhaps the most unjustly treated. He had been wrongfully accused of murder while trying to save someone and spent three years in prison before his name was cleared. Although he was released after the truth came out, his reputation was severely damaged.

It has been three years since the murder charges. Three years have passed.

Leon should have cleared his name by now and been released.

So why is Joel telling me he's refusing to sign the contract? As long as the police issue a statement, all the dirt on him would be wiped clean. With his handsome face, he could easily make a major comeback.

Samantha realized that even though she genuinely wanted to help people, the ones she aimed to assist didn't want her help. The agency "Dream Maker" had run into so many issues just during the contract negotiations. Whether it could rise to fame was still up in the air. Samantha's fingers moved swiftly across her phone as she sent a message to Joel. 'Get me Leon's address. I'll meet him in person to discuss the contract."

Joel replied, 'Got it."

In less than a minute, he sent Leon's address to her phone, along with some basic information about him -and even a photo.

Samantha glanced at the picture of the man. He looked like a leading character straight out of a novel. His face was nothing short of perfect.

She briefly skimmed through Leon's profile, then put away her phone and got up to take a shower. By the time she came out, Finley was in the room, changing his clothes. Draped in a towel, she walked over and stood next to him.
