I spent ten years painstakingly nurturing my best friend's career. Finally, she debuted and became an A-list star.
After earning her first paycheck, she transferred me $100,000.
Her message: A wise friend lifted me to the clouds; now I repay her with gold.
I was moved to tears: "From today on, I'll handle all your dirty work!"
My best friend got excited and transferred me another $100,000.
Staring at the $200,072 in my bank account, I was so thrilled I didn't know what to do with myself.
I immediately canceled my Uber Eats coupon order and re-ordered a venti Starbucks latte at full price.
Heh, I have coupons, but I won't use them. That's how rich I am.

I was sipping my Starbucks when I suddenly saw a gossip account post.
[Shocking! New It Girl Chloe Evans had a teenage pregnancy!]
Damn it. I knew this account. It was run by bots hired by another actress, Tiffany Rose.
They spent all day smearing other rising stars. Their credibility was about as solid as a wet paper towel.
I clicked on it. The account was doing a livestream.
Saying my best friend dated early? Fine. She did.
Saying she dated the school bad boy? Sure. Her ex was indeed the hottest guy in school.
But saying she got pregnant in high school and had a second child for him?
I was furious.
You had a second child! You had octuplets!
In a fit of rage, I started my own livestream.
The stream title: [Chloe Evans' 10-Year Classmate Spills the Tea!]
