---- Once back home, I strictly followed the master's instructions and recited the scripture daily. On the tenth day, while scrolling through my phone, I suddenly noticed I was trending online. A public account had uploaded my recording of 'A Flicker in the Dark.' At the same time, Winnie posted a message on social media where she supported Lucas, trying to solidify the claim that I was a plagiarist. However, no one believed her. That was because my dad had released a statement on. his company's Twitter account. "Matthew is the heir of Jackson Group?" "Why would he need to plagiarize Lucas when he's running his family's business? He might just be singing it because it sounds nice!" "Matthew didn't even release it. Can't he sing it in private?" Winnie was infuriated and called me with different ---- numbers every day. At first, she cursed me out. Then she started begging for a chance to meet. Once again, I blocked her number. On the fourteenth day, while I was reciting the scripture at home, a blood-curdling scream sounded from outside. Peering through the window, I saw Winnie on the ground. Her face was covered in pimples, and she was calling my name while lying on the ground. My mom blocked the door and said, ''There's one more day left. You can't go out!" I couldn't help but laugh as I returned to my room to continue reciting. From that day on, I never saw Winnie again. I heard that she was disfigured and had to quit the entertainment industry. Later, I found out that Lucas' involvement with the cursed ring was all due to Winnie. She was the one who brought Lucas to Terak. Lucas had always envied my talent, so he teamed up ---- with Winnie to put the voodoo doll's fragment onto me. Fifteen days passed quickly, and I felt an immense sense of relief wash over me as I walked outside. The tightness I had felt before disappeared, and I felt as if I was reborn. At that moment, my phone rang. It was Anthony. "Matthew, have you heard? Something happened to Lucas!" I was startled and quickly asked about it. "He went mad and started attacking people a few days ago, muttering something about karma. However, he hasn't caused any trouble since yesterday. He was awfully quiet, almost like a puppet. Do you think he is being possessed by something?" Hearing his words, I knew that Lucas was suffering from the affection of the evil energy, just like Winnie! After chatting for a bit, Anthony cleared his throat and said, "Matthew, have you thought about coming ---- back?" Hearing this, I hesitated. "Just get back to making your music!" Hearing this, I turned around and saw my parents standing behind me. "T can still work for a few more decades. Don't you worry!" my dad said. At that moment, I smiled brightly. A year later, I stood on stage while holding a trophy. "Let's congratulate the Best Songwriter of the Year, Matthew Jackson!" As petals rained down in front of me, I finally reclaimed what belonged to me. Discover our latest featured short drama reel. Watch now and enjoy the story!
