Chapter 89
“You act tough and ruthless, Dustin, but you’re still terrified of the Wyatt family!” Bella’s voice got louder and louder. “Maybe it’s because my father has some hold over you, or maybe it’s because you know the hidden power of the Wyatt family, you’re afraid of all of us, so you don’t dare to take real action against anyone! What’s wrong? Did I hit a nerve?“You’re nothing but a coward!” Bella laughed loudly. She looked very satisfied with herself as though she had seen through Dustin entirely. Dustin’s face darkened. It seemed that by sealing her memories about what had happened with the Verdant Gang, he had made her arrogant and delusional. Did she not know that Shadow One and Shadow Two were already dead? Rage surged in Dustin’s heart. It was true that he had been holding back for the sake of his adoptive father’s kindness toward him. That was why he did not harm the Wyatt sisters despite his rage. He did not expect his consideration of their family would delude Bell

At Rivenesco First Hospital, Bella screamed. “You have to fix them! You have to fix them!” Bella’s face twisted in pain as she shouted. After Dustin left the hotel, she endured the pain and rushed to the hospital with her severed fingers. She couldn’t afford to lose those two fingers! “Don’t worry, Miss Bella. You will recover just fine!” the doctor said. Hearing this, Bella finally sighed in relief and fainted. When she woke up, it was already the next day. Her sisters had arrived and were gathered around her hospital bed. When they saw that Bella was awake, her sisters leaned in. “Bella, how are you? Does it still hurt?” “What in the world happened?” Her sisters bombarded her with questions and annoyed her. She motioned for them all to keep quiet. Soon, she jolted awake as if she was electrocuted. She quickly brought her hand in front of her face to inspect it. She screamed just as she had done yesterday. Her left hand was wrapped in bandages, but ther

Bella’s image was completely ruined. She was cast aside by those in the entertainment industry. In the past, Bella had a lot of diehard fans who defended her no matter what scandals popped up about her. They always fought against haters online. Yet, when this news broke out, many of Bella’s fans turned into her haters themselves and joined in with the others against her. This time, there was no way to clean up the mess. The Wyatt sisters were all quiet. None of them said anything for a long while. It was not just the media outlets fueling the flames. Many official accounts also called her out and accused her of things. “The public opinion is affecting the company, too. Our stock price has plummeted to a record low in the span of a day. We lost billions!” Clara said solemnly. When Clara said that, her other sisters failed to keep their composure. Their faces grew darker. The impact of this incident was more massive than they had ever imagined. “After getting the news,

At the Langley family villa, Camille slowly regained consciousness. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw the worried Dustin and Simone’s worried faces. “Simone, Dustin, where am I? Why do I feel so dizzy?” Camille asked blearily. Memories from before she fainted slowly came back. She remembered that Bella had called her and urged her to drink some wine. After she drank the wine, she felt weak and drowsy. She recalled seeing a lecherous smile on the face of that rich man as he approached her…Camille’s eyes widened, and she immediately sprang upright and threw aside the covers. “Simone, I… How did I get home?” Her eyes welled up, and she trembled. She was only in her twenties and had never experienced such trauma. “Don’t worry. Nothing happened to you,” Simone said gently as she caressed Camille’s forehead. “Dustin brought you home from the hotel. He already dealt with the culprit.” Camille looked at Dustin when she heard that. Dustin nodded at her. Only t

It would not be an exaggeration to say that Camille was stunned and speechless at the attention she was getting. “Dustin, is Ruby the friend you mentioned? You’re amazing! I can’t believe you know Ruby!” Camille looked at Dustin in delight. Camille felt like this was a great honor. A famous agent wanted to sign her on even though she was a newbie. She had never even starred in anything before! “What? A friend?” Ruby looked shocked when she heard that. “Miss Camille, please don’t misunderstand. I’m not…” She wanted to explain, but she did not dare to say another word when Dustin shot her a look. The doorbell rang again. Simone went to the door. This time, the person who arrived was a plump, middle-aged man in glasses. “You’re the famous director, Horace Timm!” Simone said in surprise. Even as an outsider in the entertainment industry, Simone knew who Horace was. He was a respected and famous director with many notable productions to his name. He had won countless
Chapter 94
In a ward of Rivenesco First Hospital, Bella used her uninjured hand to make a call. “Hello, Mr. Xander, didn’t you say you wanted to cast me as the female lead in that drama? Is the offer still up?” she asked with a bit of hope. She was going to go insane. The internet was filled with insults that nearly drove her to the brink of a mental breakdown. She felt a little better only after Amara stopped her from going online. But she still could not hold herself back, and she did not want to give up. “Bella, your reputation is ruined, and you still want a film? The Broadcasting Board has already imposed a ban. Nobody dares to even make you an offer. Just stay as a good commoner, and don’t dream of becoming an actress ever again!” said an impatient voice from the other end of the line. Bella’s face stiffened. “Mr. Xander, I don’t need to be paid! The ban from the Broadcasting Board only applies within the country. They cannot ban things abroad. After filming, we can release it
Chapter 95
When Dustin heard that, his face darkened. He pulled Simone along and strode forward. At the set of The Legend of the Swordsman 4, a group of people surrounded Camille and a woman. The woman pointed viciously at Camille and yelled at her. Camille dared not speak. She just endured the woman’s shouting like a helpless victim. The people around were watching with interest. Some even looked slightly amused. “Camille Langley, look at yourself carefully. Do you really think you’re good enough for the lead role? Everyone here has more experience than you! Even a supporting actress is more qualified than you!” The woman pointed at Camille’s face, and her tone of voice was aggressive and arrogant.“Looking at your fake innocent face makes me sick! You have no talent and no skills. I heard that you just used to be an extra. How many people did you sleep with to get this lead role? Why don’t you just tell us?” Camille’s eyes welled up with tears. She felt helpless. It was the first d
Chapter 96
The crew looked at each other in disbelief. Who was this guy? He had the audacity to call the director by his name and demand him to come out here… Horace was one of the most respected directors in Lovellia. It was said that he had an extraordinary background, and even the top figures would treat him with respect. How dare this brat order him about? Even Simone and Camille were startled. Horace Timm was no ordinary person. Was it not inappropriate to demand his presence in front of the whole crew? The woman sneered. “How arrogant! Do you even know who he is? How dare you demand that Mr. Timm appear here for you? Ha! You’ve clearly lost your mind if you don’t know your place!” she said with a sneer and a face full of mockery. “When Mr. Timm gets here, you’re done for!” “Who let this brat in? This is no place for you to mess around! Get lost!” shouted someone from the crew. “You hit Rachel Zahn! Do you know who her boyfriend is? You’re really asking for trouble!”
