Throughout the night, Ariana and Betsy worked tirelessly to address the rumors and speculation swirling around Sarah on the Internet.

Regarding the speculation that Sarah was going to quit the variety show and the entertainment industry, as long as they didn't issue a statement confirming it, it wouldn't do much harm.

They grappled with how to address the sensitive topic of Alina's background, as Ariana herself was unaware of the truth.

After Sarah retreated into her room, she refused to come out.

With Sarah being the only one who could potentially turn the situation around, Ariana felt the weight of the situation heavily on her shoulders. If Sarah chose to give up, there was nothing they could do.

After a long night of addressing public opinion, Ariana took a break to eat a sandwich, feeling exhausted.

Just as she was about to grab a glass of water, her phone buzzed with a message.

It was from Sarah.

Eagerly, Ariana opened it to find an adoption certificate for Alina and a medical report proving Lynch's infertility.

Ariana gazed intently at the two images displayed before her, studying each detail with a mixture of relief and empathy.

As the truth slowly dawned on her, she couldn't help but feel a weight lifted from her chest. Alina, it seemed, was not Sarah's biological daughter, but had been adopted into the family. This explained why there was no blood connection between Alina and Lynch, and why Sarah had kept the truth from her.

Ariana couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness as she imagined the fear and confusion that Alina must have experienced. To be cast aside by her biological parents at such a young age, and then to be faced with the reality of her true origins later in life, would be a devastating blow. The thought of the young girl being branded as an illegitimate child and scorned by society made Ariana's heart ache.

The weight of the situation finally got to be too much for Sarah.

It seemed the words Ariana spoke in the collection room had made an impact. Though Sarah might not be fighting for herself, she knew she needed to fight for Alina.

With this newfound information, Ariana sprang into action.

Taking control of Sarah's agent's official account, Ariana composed a short but powerful clarification, including the two crucial certificates as evidence.

The post was sent out and it didn't take long for it to cause a stir.

Within just half an hour, the clarification was the talk of the town, causing the tides of public opinion to swiftly turn in their favor.

Ariana declared her intentions in the clarification. She was done tolerating the baseless slanders, and it was time to take legal action.

She tasked Betsy with gathering crucial evidence while she contacted the company's legal experts to handle the lawsuit.
