Chapter 536: Chapter 536: The Failed Scheme

"Love is love, there’s nothing to regret."

"With love, there’s no fear."

Later, even after Selena Kensington left the clinic, Miles Goodman still remained in that dazed state.

With love, there’s no fear?

Is that really so...

*

Selena Kensington left Miles Goodman’s psychological clinic and returned to The Northwood Estate.

She went to her bedroom alone and took out the book that Miles had given her.

The content recorded in it was nothing more than how to guide the Heavenly Master Power within her to nourish her body.

After all, having entered modern society, the Clan of Celestial Masters’ past glory of shaking the earth with their talisman power has long since faded.

Nowadays, the Heavenly Master Power can only give them a physique different from ordinary people.

Selena tried to follow what the book said, allowing the Heavenly Master Power to circulate within her, soothing her meridians.

She instinctively closed her eyes.

The power within was warm and fiery, intoxicating Selena.

And as she closed her eyes, a faint golden light surrounded her.

Sterling Norwood walked in and saw this scene.

Looking at the golden light, his eyes narrowed slightly.

Expression inscrutable.

When Selena opened her eyes, she saw Sterling sitting right in front of her.

Selena joyfully threw herself at him, knocking Sterling over onto the bed.

Sterling slightly curled his lips, indulging her actions.

"Huh... Why do I feel like my strength has increased a lot?"

Selena exclaimed in surprise.

Sterling raised a hand, touching Selena’s wrist.

Feeling the strong heartbeat at her pulse, Sterling raised an eyebrow slightly.

"The Heavenly Master Power has nourished your physique."

But what Sterling didn’t expect was how quickly Selena absorbed it.

Hearing Sterling’s explanation, Selena laughed, "Let’s see if you dare to mess with me next time!"

With that, she raised her fist.

"..."

Sterling’s brows twisted in slight helplessness, she really turned into a ’tigress’ now.

"Let’s eat."

Once Selena had enough fun, Sterling spoke up.

Selena climbed off Sterling, "Alright, let’s go!"

After finishing their meal, Selena received a message from Hugh Kensington.

[Little Sweetheart]: The exclusive trial of Starstruck has ended, and the market response has been great. It may open for unlimited use after the school term starts.

Seeing Hugh’s message, Selena thought for a moment.

After the term starts, which would be early March.

It’s already late February now.

There are only a few days left.

[Selie Stays Slim]: Okay.

Afterwards, Selena checked online to see what users thought of their experience with Starstruck.

[Strongly recommend Starstruck!!! The functionality is amazing!]

[Recommend! Recommend! The key is, there aren’t any annoying ads!]

[Highly recommend! Although there aren’t many artists on board initially, looking forward to more joining in!]

[Finally, I don’t have to keep searching for info on my idols; I can find it all here!]

Looking at the comments online, Selena suddenly thought of Sidney Dalton.

Perhaps he still doesn’t know that his foolproof plan has already failed.

But...

Since he dared meddle with Jonah Hawthorne’s team, she could repay him in kind.

Because she knows his most fatal flaw.

Skepticism.

Afterward, Selena sent Hugh a message.

[Selie Stays Slim]: Are you familiar with Sidney Dalton’s close confidants recently?

[Little Sweetheart]:... Sis, are you planning?

Selena snorted softly and replied: Of course, repay in kind.

It took Hugh a moment to respond.

[Little Sweetheart]: Currently, it’s mostly Dalton Family members around Sidney Dalton, which makes it tough to target.

[Little Sweetheart]: However, I do recall Sidney Dalton once sacrificed an assistant as a scapegoat to protect himself and Roxanne Sutton.

Hearing Hugh mention the assistant who took the blame before, Selena’s eyes lit up.

Yes, how did she forget about that person?

That assistant had been with Sidney for a long time and knew many of his secrets.

So, Sidney won’t easily abandon him. Not only that, to ensure the assistant’s loyalty, he would probably offer many empty promises.

Unfortunately, that assistant no longer has the opportunity to return to Sidney’s side.

[Selie Stays Slim]: That assistant is probably still in Aethelgard, just hidden by Sidney.

[Selie Stays Slim]: Hugh, psychological strategy, don’t need me to explain, right?

[Little Sweetheart]: Understood.

Sidney Dalton is naturally suspicious, so if they can find out where that assistant is staying now.

And then send gifts secretly to that assistant, creating an impression of camaraderie.

That assistant will ultimately approach Sidney to express loyalty.

But with Sidney, he trusts no one but himself.

While these actions may not lead to the assistant’s immediate abandonment, the seed of doubt is planted.

It will only be a matter of time before Sidney discards the assistant.

A few days later, the Starstruck app launched on all platforms without any user cap.

With this launch, Hugh also got artists signed under Stardust to join.

As for artists from other entertainment companies, after discussing with Jonah Hawthorne, Hugh agreed that as long as they were willing, they could join.

However, all shares of Starstruck still belonged to Stardust and Jonah’s team.

On the first day of launch, the download numbers were astonishing.

It even topped the charts in various app stores.

[OMG! Finally, I can download it!!]

[Girls, let’s go! Check out our idols!]

[Love it! Love it! Immortal app!]

[Today’s app stores almost crashed, the power of fandom is terrifying!]

Selena glanced at the comments left by users in the app store, and then turned off her phone.

She looked up at Hugh at the office desk.

"Sidney Dalton is probably fuming this time."

Selena’s lips curled as she spoke.

From the message passed by Dickens Grant from Jonah Hawthorne’s team.

This time Sidney Dalton invested millions in this app, but ultimately, all Dickens did was divulge some surface-level information to them.

As for the core chip of the Starstruck app, Dickens left just before its launch.

Without the core chip, all of Sidney’s long-time efforts were in vain.

At this moment, in Radiance Entertainment’s office.

Sidney Dalton’s face was extremely grim and terrifying.

As Selena said, Sidney was indeed enraged.

"That fellow called Dickens, is he playing me?!"

The assistant by his side remained silent.

Because at this moment, Sidney was clearly in a state of fury, and speaking up would be inappropriate.

Only after Sidney had vented his anger did the assistant start to speak.
