Chapter 82 Keep Your Distance From Her Silas was a touch surprised, for he’d thought that Marcus Cohen would utter a few imploring remarks.
While he couldn’t have changed his mind, he had to answer the call for Camila’s sake. I didn’t expect
Marcus Cohen to be such a straightforward person that he gave his artist up without even asking what
had transpired. The corners of his mouth lifted a fraction. “Sure. Let’s get together sometime.” Marcus’
voice drifted out of the phone. “Okay. I’ll leave you to do your work first, then.” The corners of Camila’s
mouth twitched unbidden. This cousin of mine is really smart. He’s making his stance clear to Silas
Nolan when I’ve obviously related everything to him via WhatsApp. She deliberately had Luca make
this call so that he would harbor no illusions. Metrostar Entertainment couldn’t possibly allow an artist of
his character to stay since he’d started puffing up before even achieving anything much. After hearing
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe exchange, Luca’s eyes rolled back into his head, and he almost passed out from fright. He
persisted in apologizing while bowing. “President Nolan, I’m sorry. Ladies, I’m sorry. I’ve realized my
wrongdoing now.” Camila threw him a placid glance and remarked indifferently, “How did Metrostar
Entertainment produce such trash like you?” After saying that, she turned and looked at Silas.
“President Nolan, since he has been fired by Metrostar Entertainment, he’s been suitably punished
after all. So, let’s just drop it at this.” “Is this even punishment? The two of you are fine only because he
was impeded by the situation, not because he has repented and decided not to take it further,” Silas
commented placidly. Sighing, Camila replied, “I know. If you hadn’t been here today, the ramifications
might have been disastrous for me and Kate, but it’s tantamount to career suicide now that something
like this happened to him at the height of his career. Thus, I don’t want to pursue this matter further.”
Harriet was also a tad worried. While she hadn’t raised a hand against them, her attitude earlier was
one of retaliation, so it was a matter of a word from Silas if he wanted payback from her. Hence, she
promptly said to Camila, “Miss Brooklyn, I’m really sorry. I mistakenly took Luca’s words for the truth
and thought that he was bullied. I then wanted to retaliate on his behalf without having understood the
truth,
so I owe you an apology as well.” Looking at her, Camila took a deep breath. “As I said, we both
wanted to retaliate on behalf of our friends, so I don’t mind. I just have a kind reminder for you-not
everyone is worthy to be considered a friend. Some people aren’t deserving of your kindness!” Harriet
nodded. “You’re right. I still need to improve my judgment of others,” she hurriedly replied. Camila
inclined her head slightly without saying anything further.

and helpless. “I’ll let you off this time for Miss Brooklyn’s sake, but keep your distance from her in
future.” Almost bursting into tears from the immense joy, Luca bowed low to him as though he’d been
granted amnesty. “Thank you, President Nolan! Thank you, ladies!” Aleena, who’d witnessed the entire
debacle from a corner, gritted her teeth so hard that they almost shattered. Why is there such a big
difference in his attitude? I wanted to sit with him, but he disdained me. When Camila Brooklyn went
over, however, he promptly called her over to have a seat and even helped to avenge her, getting into a
snit for her sake. Why? I like him so much! How am I inferior to her? Her nails unconsciously dug into
her flesh, but she didn’t feel any pain, her eyes brimming with undisguised hatred.
“Aleena, who’s that woman? Why does Silas seem so protective of her?” The woman beside her stared
at them in bafflement. Aleena snorted. “Protective? Not at all. She just knows some medical skills and
happened to have saved Silas’s grandfather, so Silas regards her quite highly.” “No matter the reason,
there’ll be sparks if she keeps putting herself into Silas’s path, so you can’t just sit around and do
nothing,” the woman urged.
