Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

Chapter 824

After hanging up the phone, Alma issued instructions to her team.

‘Keep hiring some online trolls; have them trash Wilma’s reputation ASAP

“Ms. Alma, we’re already on it. The internet is flooded with negative comments about Wilma, and everyone’s calling

her a lowlife.”

A smirk appeared on Alma’s face. Backed by the powerful Casson family, dealing with a woman who entirely relied

on men was a piece of cake.

She was confident that Maja, the woman so dependent on men, would come begging for mercy within two months.

Alma was full of confidence about this.

On the other hand, Maja was still in the dark about the fact that the woman Wilma slapped was from the Casson

family. She tried to call Wilma, but Wilma didn’t pick up. Clearly, she was pissed. So, she called Wilma’s agent next.

The agent was a young woman who sounded a bit shaky, understandably, since Maja was her boss.

“Mr. Pennyfeather”

“What’s she up to now? How’s she doing?”

“Wilma’s sleeping. She doesn’t answer when I knock on the door.”

“As her agent, you must know why she slapped that woman, right?”

“Yes, I do. The director suddenly added a female supporting role to the crew, having Wilma and the supporting

actress reshoot previous scenes. Normally, they’d have to discuss this with us first, but we were kept in the dark the

whole time. In one of the scenes with the supporting actress, she was supposed to slap Wilma. They reshot that

scene eighteen times, with Wilma getting slapped until her face was swollen. Everyone could tell the supporting

actress was doing it intentionally, but no one stood up for Wilma. The last time the supporting actress deliberately

slapped Wilma hard, she said something to Wilma, and that’s when Wilma fought back.”

In showbiz, those without a powerful backing were often bullied but Maja would never allow her artists to be bullied.

If Wilma had a bad temper, she would have fought back after a few slaps. But she endured eighteen slaps, and it

must have been something the supporting actress said that crossed a line and made her fight back.

This girl was only twenty years old. The fact that she could endure eighteen slaps showed incredible resilience.

Maja and Elvis were on their way to Wilma’s school, planning to investigate the fights Wilma was Involved in back in

the day.

When they arrived, Maja went to see the principal.

The principal hadn’t received any calls beforehand and thought the call was from a news outlet, so he wasn’t

pleased. When he heard it was about Wilma, he promptly kicked them out.

“We can’t just give out this information to outsiders. You better leave, or I’ll call security.”

Maja observed the principal’s expression, noticing that he was very firm when he saw her. Someone must have

tipped him off.

Also, what the supporting actress said must have had something to do with this, which was why it got to Wilma.

If the supporting actress had already gotten hold of this information and the principal was still refusing to share it

with Maja, it meant the supporting actress was the key player. Maja called the agent again, and everything clicked

when she saw the supporting actress’s profile.

The supporting actress was part of the Casson family.

Selena Casson and Steve Raymond came from similar backgrounds, and the Casson family’s standing and power

were obvious. Clearly, Alma was trying to get close to Maja. Back in the car, Maja frowned.

Elvis also remained silent. He had been in showbiz for many years, but going against the Casson family was

impossible.,

The Casson family were aristocrats and capitalists, a single person’s power was no match for them.

“Mr. Pennyfeather, what should we do?”

Maja put down the documents in her hands, took a calm look at the view outside the window, and then called

someone at Rosewood Manor.

“Look into Alma. Find out everything that has happened in her life.”

Her arrogance might come from her upbringing, and she might have as much negative press as Wilma.

Then she had someone look into the supporting actress that Alma replaced, finally getting the actress’s phone

number.

After calling, she found out the girl had been crying at home for two days because she had been replaced.

In showbiz, getting any role was a big deal. Sometimes, losing a role was like losing a chance at fame.

Maja hung up the phone and then turned to Elvis.

“Get in touch with the original supporting actress. She’s still crying at home. She originally had over a million fans,

was a social media influencer, and hasn’t signed with any agency yet. If her acting skills are good, sign her to our

agency, then we can start fighting back against Alma, starting with the ‘stolen role‘ incident.”

Alma’s way of stealing roles was too domineering. If it came to light, it would definitely spark discussion.

Maja smiled faintly, “I’ll get our PR department involved and create a close sisterly image for Wilma and the

influencer. Then, we’ll expose the slapping incident. By then, in the eyes of netizens, she’ll be seen as ‘the one who

held back until she had to stand up for her friend! She’s still young and a bit impulsive, but that’s just her being

honest. So we’ll frame Wilma as someone who’s genuine, and we’ll also hire some fans to promote her that way.”

Elvis was a bit surprised. Maja’s strategies were more effective than a professional PR’s.
