Save Myself from Desperation

Ashley’s bedroom was on the second floor, and everything was already prepared.

“Ashley, if you want anything, just tell us.” Karen was afraid of making her daughter feel wronged. “We got everything covered.” Ashley smiled, “| know, Mom.”

Karen affectionately touched Ashley's hair. “It’s getting late, Ashley. You should get some rest.”

“Mom, you too. Good night,” Ashley replied.

Karen felt an indescribable satisfaction when she listened to her daughter’s concern and good night wishes.

After showering and changing into pajamas, Ashley planned to send Valentin a good night’s message.

When she opened WhatsApp, she found several messages in the group chat with Miranda and Bryce.

Miranda texted: [Oh my, what's going on? Bryce, did you get into a fight?]

[And it happened during a variety show recording? Behind the scenes?]

[The one you fought with is Nick. He’s a top-tier hot male star!]

Bryce replied: [Top-tier? He’s nothing! I’m the real top-tier super idol!]

Miranda texted: [Is celebrity status the point now? The point is you got into a fight with him! It’s all trending!]

Bryce replied: [It's him | fought, so what? It’s just Nick. It’s no big deal.]

Miranda asked: [By the way, why did you fight with Nick?]

Bryce replied: [I can fight him whenever | want.]

Ashley was speechless, thinking, ‘Bryce is as wild as ever.’

Ashley checked Twitter and indeed found it trending.

The hashtag was prominently displayed as the top trending topic was “Bryce Sinclair and Nick Nadal Backstage Fight.”

Bryce, despite his arrogance, wasn’t wrong. He was indeed a top-tier idol with explosive popularity. Therefore, when news of a fight surfaced, it immediately became a hot topic.

Ashley clicked to see the details of the incident. Usually, backstage fights wouldn't be exposed.

However, the show’s production team wanted to create a surprise and had a cameraman sneakily open the door to the resting room, wanting to see what the guests were up to. This was a common practice in variety shows.

Coincidentally, when the door was pushed open, they caught the scene of Bryce and Nick fighting.

Moreover, the cameraman’s footage was broadcast live, with no time for editing. The fight scene was instantly posted online. What was meant to be a surprise turned into a shock.

Bryce and Nick’s fight had been trending for a whole night.

In the WhatsApp group, Bryce texted: [The trend is wrong. What do they mean by a fight? Clearly, it was me giving Nick a one- sided beatdown!]

Miranda asked: [Why did you two suddenly start fighting?]Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated for All Books Updates...

Ashley also typed: [How did this fight happen suddenly?] Excited, Miranda said: [Ashley, you’re here!]

Bryce replied: [Oh, the busy bee is online.]NôvelDrama.Org © content.

After greeting Miranda, Ashley asked Bryce again: [Why on earth did you get into a fight?] Miranda typed: [Yeah, there must be a reason. | don’t think Bryce is the type to fight for no reason!] But Bryce didn’t reply to the messages, seemingly unwilling to disclose the reason for the fight. Ashley was curious, thinking, ‘What’s going on?’

Miranda asked several times, but Bryce didn’t explain.

Fifteen minutes later, Miranda sent an excited message: [I found out why you fought!]

Bryce replied: [You what?]

[How did you find out?]

Bryce didn’t know how to react to that.

Ashley asked: [Miranda, what's the reason?]

Miranda angrily added: [Bryce, you did well! If | were there, I’d give Nick a beating, too!] Ashley was slightly stunned. She didn’t expect this was the reason for the fight.

Bryce fought with Nick to help her.
