Rising from the Ashes The Heiress They Tried to Erase Novel

Chapter 194: "Trying way too hard."

Each comment was like a slap to the face, and the worst part was - she could do nothing about it.

Lately, more and more netizens had started leaving sarcastic jabs under her posts. Rosanna suspected that Maia's silent maneuvering was behind it.

One particularly irritating user, Winters, kept digging up Rosanna's old scandals, taunting that she never learned from her past mistakes and would only embarrass herself once again. Frustrated beyond measure, Rosanna slammed a long list into the private investigator's hands. "Find them!" she ordered. "At least catch one!"

The investigator hung up quickly and wasted no time in contacting a top hacker.

The hacker, desperate for money, had begun accepting even the smallest of jobs without hesitation.

However, just half an hour later, the hacker sent a message back, explaining that he couldn't get the job done, refunded the payment, and blocked the detective.

Staring at his screen, the hacker found himself in the darkest moment of his career. Last time Vince had approached him, he ran into ST's Hawk. Now, the detective had found him, only to be met with Polaris' chief.

In just a few days, he had encountered the highest ranks from both ST and Polaris, two leading hacker organizations. Realizing that he was in over his head, he fled without a second thought.

Maia's phone rang.

"Boss, listen to this," the voice on the other end said excitedly. "I was ripping into Rosanna online when I noticed a hacker trying to trace me. I couldn't let that slide, so I hacked their system right back. Boss, take a guess - who do you think sent them?"

g????????????σv????????????.cøm - check it out!

Who else could it be?

It was either someone from the Morgan family or Vince.

Maia remained calm, glancing at the screen. "Whoever it is, we'll deal with them one by one."

The voice on the other end chuckled with glee, "That's why you're the boss!"

By now, Maia had already put together a list of lawsuits and sent it over to Zenith Legal. After consulting with the lawyers, they decided to focus their efforts primarily on Rosanna's loyal fans.

As for the clueless followers, Maia had no intention of suing them. Attacking too broadly might backfire. Instead, Maia planned to make an example out of a few, hitting them where it would hurt the most.

Meanwhile, the masked singer's video continued to gain momentum, slowly but surely stealing the spotlight from Rosanna.

"Wow, who is this?" one commenter marveled. "How can they sing 'One More Day' with such grace? And their stage presence is so steady, it's hard to believe they're just a newcomer. Could they be a big shot in disguise?"

"I think the masked singer might already be signed up for the competition," another theorized, "but their true identity is still a mystery."

"The official page hasn't confirmed anything yet," someone else noted in frustration. "Has the masked singer joined or not? It's driving me crazy. The Voice of Zephyria just wouldn't be the same without them."

"I've actually been to that place - Starlight Bar in Wront," one person shared. "I had a friend dig up more details, and the regular singers don't include the masked singer. They must be a guest performer who decided to sing on a whim."

"Really? Wront is full of hidden talents. I remember Rosanna is from Wront, right? Could it be her?"

Before long, Rosanna's name was everywhere online as users tagged her profile, demanding to know if she was the singer behind the mask. Soon after, talent agents from entertainment firms bombarded her with calls, eager for her to cash in on the sudden spotlight.
