Chapter 631
Yvonne’s eyes revealed a hint of bitterness as she chuckled lightly, “and that gives her the right to disrespect others, huh?”
Hattie’s face only grew uglier.
At that moment, Malloy walked in through the door, holding a thermal food container in his hand, smiling, “Ah, Ms. Yvonne is here too?” *Just came to see Hattie.” Yvonne nodded gently, looking surprised at Malloy’s face, “Mr. Hearn, what happened to your face?” Malloy touched the corner of his mouth, cursing angrily, “It’s all because of that bitch Estelle, I’ll definitely kick her out of the crew!” Yvonne showed a knowing expression, awkwardly saying, “Estelle is quite skilled, I’ve seen her skills before, you better stay away from her in the future!” That bitch!” Malloy cursed furiously, “I won’t let her off!”
The barbecue restaurant was getting more and more crowded. Estelle quickly finished her meal, helped out in the store for a while, and then returned to the crew.
As soon as she came back, she felt something was off. She was a cold person and didn’t interact much with the crew members, nor did she participate in their after-work gatherings. However, they’d usually exchange greetings when they saw each other.

When Estelle returned to the production area, the assistant director came over. His previous anger was gone, and his expression seemed to carry a hint of sympathy, “Mr. Mayfield is here, in the office. He wants to see you”
The temporary office of the production crew was located in a room in the backyard. Estelle pushed the door open and understood what was going on when she saw the people inside.
Besides MMayfield, Malloy and Hattie were also sitting on the sofa. When Estelle entered, Malloy curled his lips, his eyes even gloomier
“Ella, sit.” Mayfield didn’t say anything else, his attitude was just as gentle as before.
Malloy raised his leg on the coffee table, lit a cigarette, and said softly, “Mr. Mayfield, I’ve made myself very clear. Either she gets the hell out, or I’ll withdraw my investment. Think it over!”
The Hearn family wasn’t in the film business. Malloy invested in Mayfield’s movie purely because of Hattie.
Mayfield smiled, “Accidents happen all the time on set. Estelle didn’t do it on purpose. Why don’t we just let it go after she apologizes to Hattie?”
“No way, there’s no room for negotiation!” Malloy tapped the ash into the ashtray, “She has to get out, or you can give me back the fifty million I invested right now.”
Mayfield was in a difficult situation. He looked at Hattie, hoping she could persuade Malloy.
However, Hattie kept her head down, pretending not to see and remaining unmoved.
Left with no choice, Mayfield could only give Estelle a hint with his eyes, wanting her to say something nice to plead.
Suddenly, Estelle spoke up. “It’s just money, right? I didn’t think it was such a big deal. I’ll cover the loss if the Hearn family withdraws their investment!”
There were other people in the room, including the assistant director and Mayfield’s assistant. Hearing Estelle’s words, everyone was stunned.

Hattie’s eyes flickered as she texted Yvonne with her phone down, [Estelle wants to invest in the movie. Is she using Mr. Lamont’s money?
After sending the message, a cold smile appeared on Hattie’s lips. xo.com fast update
She knew that Yvonne was using her, but wasn’t she also using Yvonne? They had a common goal, which was to ruin Estelle!
It would be best for her to disappear from J City forever!
Malloy sized up Estelle, wondering if she had any backing. After all, she was pretty good-looking. But on second thought, it was impossible. If she had
any powerful connections, would she still be a small assistant in the crew, getting ordered around by others?
He sneered, “It seems like we have quite an ignorant and arrogant girl here. Do you know how much money I invested in this movie?”
Estelle responded calmly, “Fifty million, you just said it!*
“Do you even have fifty million?” Malloy mocked with a smirk.
