She Was the Treasure All Along novel Chapter 485

Loyce stopped in her tracks, and Holt immediately stepped in front to shield her.

She tilted her head and looked at the utterly deranged Finn. Her voice was calm, yet every word carried the weight of a sledgehammer: "I never held your future in my hands. You wrote your own ending a long time ago."

Finn's eyes were bloodshot. "I didn't write an ending where I stay a rat in a basement! I came here today to take back my spot as lead singer! My fans are waiting downstairs right now to celebrate with me! Do you really think you can just cover the sky with one hand just because you have connections? The online backlash is going to destroy you!"

A faint, icy smirk tugged at the corner of Loyce's lips. "Right. Which is exactly why I called the police."

She raised her hand, revealing her phone screen with an active call. Speaking clearly and calmly into the receiver, she said, "Hello, I'd like to report a crime. The suspect is currently at Jasyn Media, and he's involved in a case of premeditated assault. His name is Finn. Please send officers immediately."

"Loyce!" Panic seized Finn, though he tried to mask it with a desperate yell. "Who the hell do you think you are?! You don't have a shred of proof! You think the cops will just take your word for it?!"

Loyce smiled, but her eyes were like frost. "You'll find out very soon whether I have proof or not."

...

Having finally reclaimed his spot as the lead singer, Holt was desperate to log onto Twitter and share the good news to put his fans at ease. However, the moment he opened the app, the sheer volume of DMs and mentions caused his phone to freeze entirely.

To his absolute horror, he realized his fans were collectively cyberbullying Loyce—the very woman who had saved his life!

He stumbled, nearly crashing into a pillar. Frantically steadying himself, his trembling fingers typed out a clarification tweet:

[My voice was completely healed at Blossom Hospital. The woman who provided emergency first aid on stage followed standard, flawless medical protocols. I am begging everyone to stop the cyberbullying against @Loyce. She is the one who saved my life!]

This long-awaited update from Holt dropped like a boulder into a boiling pot of oil, instantly sending shockwaves across the platform.

While the fans were ecstatic that their idol had recovered, their deeply ingrained prejudice blinded them. They stubbornly believed that Holt was simply being too kind and trying to cover for that "vile stalker fan."

They feverishly thanked the "miracle worker" lead surgeon at Blossom Hospital, while simultaneously pivoting to hurl more abuse at Loyce, threatening, "If that god-tier doctor hadn't saved our guy, we would have ended you!"

However, this wave of blind hatred didn't last long. The gossip-loving nurses at the hospital saw the trending topics and were completely baffled, their brains trying to reconcile the conflicting narratives.

"Wait, why are his fans thanking Dr. Sampson while dragging her name through the mud at the same time?"
