Chapter 145 Louisa blinked in surprise, expecting the other party to demand cash or resources. It was a shock when all they asked for was an apology.
“Alright, | agree.” Backstage, Mia approached Avery, hoping to invite him to her live—stream.
Avery promised to consider it After Mia left, Aurelia gave her brother a pat on the shoulder. “Avery,” she advised, “always inform Nydial about your plans. If she approves, then you can proceed with peace of mind.” “Oh,” Avery nodded.
Arnold's face held a hint of a knowing smile. What Aurelia had said was exactly what he had been thinking. The entertainment industry was a complex beast, and even a visit to a popular live-stream could potentially ignite unnecessary scandals. As a newcomer, it was best to keep your nose clean.
Aurelia was sweet and innocent, but she was no fool. Quite the contrary, her thought process was meticulous. She was the type of woman who could stand beside you and fight, perfect to be your support.
Before long, Louisa arrived with Evan.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEvan did not want to apologize at all, but fearing abandonment by Louisa, he had no choice.
Once inside the green room, he muttered a disgruntled “Sorry.” Aurelia scoffed, “I only agreed to remove the video out of respect for Ms. Louisa. If this is your attitude of an apology, then you can leave.” Evan glowered at her with clenched teeth.
Louisa reprimanded him, “Apologize properly!” Immediately, Evan backed down, pouting as he said, “I'm sorry,” word for word.
Aurelia drafted a written apology for him to sign.
Once he had written something satisfactory, she deleted the video from her phone and cloud storage in front of Louisa.
“Out of respect for Miss Louisa, we'll consider the matter closed.” Arnold draped his arm around Avery, “This is my brother too. | have his back. Anyone who messes with him, they can forget about a future in showbiz.” Va The trio exited the room, their presence as strong as ever, leaving Evan fuming.
On the drive back, Avery couldn't help but laugh at the memory of Evan's defeated expression.
It felt so satisfying.
“Sis, did you really delete the video?” “You're a newbie. You can't afford to offend people the moment you step into the industry. We have to give Louisa some face,” said Aurelia.
Being new to this world, Avery was still naive about the ways of the world. Aurelia, on the other hand, had survived the trials of the corporate world and knew the importance of networking.
Arnold smiled, “Your sister has always been thoughtful. Listening to her is never a mistake.” ‘He took them to a seafood restaurant for dinner.
Meanwhile, a video of Elowen bribing a hotel waitress was going viral in their WhatsApp group.
Although Elowen had worn a mask during the incident, she had taken it off on her way back, and her face had been clearly captured.
Arnold showed the group messages to Aurelia.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe twist of events left Aurelia stunned.
She had initially trusted Elowen, and never expected her to be the culprit.
“Damn, Elowen’s acting skills are incredible. She even fooled me,” she said.
Arnold smirked, “That girl has always been a queen. She’s pulled stunts like this countless times. Has she ever admitted to any of them?” Aurelia was taken aback.
She remembered that Leopold had investigated the incident and the location was a blind spot for surveillance cameras. The video clearly wasn't taken by CCTV, so who had recorded it? There seemed to be more to the story.
“Elowen acted alone, yet someone is keen on dragging me into it, making me the scapegoat. What's their game?” she wondered.
“Most likely, someone is trying to stir up trouble,” Arnold suggested.
Aurelia nodded in agreement. Some people just want to watch the world burn.
Whatever feud existed between Elowen and Evelyn was none of her business. But if they intended to drag her into their mess, they were sorely mistaken.
