Chapter 19 Apology
“If you go to jail, you might not be able to find a job in the future. Oh, right, Mr. Wharton is planning to expose this matter to warn everyone. Tsk, I don’t know if you can afford the price.”
Taking advantage of Ethan’s reputation, Kristen used a few words to scare Cynthia so much that her face turned pale. Cynthia’s legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground.
“Cynthia, I lent you money out of kindness. You did this. Don’t slander me!”
Taylor panicked as well. She was afraid that Cynthia would expose her.
But now, how could Cynthia still listen to Taylor? After all, offending Ethan was more terrible than offending the Davis family!
She pointed at Taylor and shouted crazily, “She’s the one who gave me the money to drug the horse.”
“Liar!”
Taylor stood up and slapped Cynthia in front of everyone.
“I’m not a liar! I have evidence.”
Cynthia covered the place where she had been beaten and glared at Taylor. She took out her phone and played a recording.
Taylor wanted to snatch the phone but was stopped by Kristen.
“I need you to go to the stable and drug the horse. 500 thousand dollars, Cynthia, that’s more than your three-year salary. Don’t worry, I will keep you safe.”
Everyone heard Taylor’s words.
“Kristen, Mr. Scott, Taylor is the mastermind. She wants Kristen to fall off her horse and get injured or even disfigured. I was just attracted by her offer. Please forgive me!”
In front of the hard evidence, Taylor’s face was pale as death.
“Taylor usually looks friendly and gentle, but she’s this kind of person behind the scenes!”
“That’s too despicable. If not for Mr. Wharton yesterday, Kristen…”
“The daughter of a rich family is really scary. It seems that she pretends to be nice.”
Everyone was discussing in low voices.
When Taylor heard that, she glared hatefully at Kristen. It was all her fault!
“Taylor, what else do you have to say for yourself?” Kristen smiled at the woman in front of her.
Mr. Scott hadn’t expected the mastermind behind this to be Taylor. His face was very ugly because the Davis Family’s company was the second largest investor in this TV show.
After hesitating for a long time, Mr. Scott said, “Kristen, look if Taylor apologizes to you, you shall not pursue this matter further. I’ll explain it to Mr. Wharton.”
“All right.” Kristen smiled.
She had no intention of letting Taylor leave here. After all, this TV show had already been filmed for a few days. If she was changed, it would take up a lot more time.
Kristen only wanted to finish this work as soon as possible and then she could play other roles. After all, she didn’t have much time left.
“Apologize? Why? She doesn’t deserve my apology!”
Taylor hated Kristen to the core.
Not only had her plan failed, but she had also been dragged into the mess. She was furious!
When everyone saw this, they felt that Taylor was being rude and unreasonable. She had done something wrong and was reluctant to apologize.
“Taylor, apologize or get out. It’s up to you.”
Taylor stiffened. Although this television series was not important to her, TNK Group was the biggest investor in this drama.
She had spared no effort to fight for this female lead to get close to Ethan. How could she give up this opportunity so easily?
She gritted her teeth tightly and said unwillingly, “Kristen, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have done such a thing.”
Kristen looked at her indifferently, “Why does Miss Davis’ apology sound like I’m bullying you? Forget it, I won’t hold it against you. But I want you to promise that you won’t target me anymore.”
“I promise I won’t do anything to you in the future. Are you satisfied?”
Taylor clenched her fingers tightly.
“Kristen, there is a long way to go. I will pay back today’s humiliation double.”
…
The matter came to an end just like that. Taylor did not do anything against Kristen in the next week, and the shooting went very smoothly.
A week later Ethan returned. As expected, the crew had one day off.
The capitalists were indeed powerful.
Kristen slept until she woke up naturally in the villa. Ethan’s plane would arrive at 2 p. m. After lunch, she went upstairs to put on her make-up and get ready to leave for the airport.
As soon as she walked out of the villa, her cell phone rang.
Kristen took out her phone and saw her fourth brother’s name flashed on the screen.
She picked up, and a husky voice came from the other end, “My little sister, I’m now in Nangania. Come and see me quickly.”
Did her fourth brother come to Nangania?
Kristen was taken aback, “Why are you here? Don’t lie to me.”
“Why would I lie to you? Come and see me quickly. I’m in Seaside Center.”
Kristen was quite happy after Gavin just finished because she hadn’t seen him for a long time, but she suddenly remembered that she had to pick up Ethan…
It was already past one o’clock and Ethan’s plane would arrive soon.
What a coincidence.
“Hello? What are you doing?”
“Ah… Gavin, I, I’m working. When are you leaving? I’ll see you later, okay?”
“I’m here to sign a contract. There’s still something I have to deal with in Tornzia. I’ll leave by plane at four o’clock in the afternoon.
“Are you on the set? Well, where is the address? I’ll go there, and I’ll bring you whatever you want to eat.”
Kristen didn’t know what to say.
She thought about it for two seconds. She could still see Ethan tonight, but it would take them a long time to see each other after her fourth brother left here.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
“Forget it. I’ll ask for leave. Send me the detailed address and I’ll be right there.”
After hanging up, Kristen sent a message to Ethan.
“I’m sorry, Ethan, I was suddenly told to attend a company meeting. I can’t pick you up. Shall we have dinner together tonight?”
Kristen went upstairs to change into a set of plain clothes, feeling guilty.
Ethan shouldn’t have noticed that she was lying, right?
Not daring to ask Anna to pick her up, Kristen took a cab alone to where Gavin was.
It was a high-end coffee shop. When Kristen arrived, Gavin was already waiting at the door.
The man was dressed in a white shirt, and his face was delicate and handsome. He looked gentle and elegant.
“Gavin!”
Kristen ran over, and Gavin touched her head with a doting expression.
“Your face has gotten quite a bit fat, so you are quite happy in Nangania.”
Ethan provided her with delicious food every day. It was hard for Kristen not to be fat.
She pursed her lips, “Nonsense. I didn’t gain weight.”
Gavin laughed and took her into the coffee shop. Kristen ordered a drink arbitrarily.
“Gavin, are the brothers and Grandfather doing well?”
“They are all fine. We all miss you a lot, including Grandpa. He is stubborn. Although he scolds you in front of us, we often see him in a daze when he looks at your photos. Don’t be as stubborn as him. When you are free, you should go home more often.”
“Humph! If I go back, he’ll tell me to quit my job. I don’t want to go!”
Last year, Kristen had returned to Tornzia several times, but her grandfather dampened her confidence with words, so they had to part on bad terms.
“I’m playing a role. The next time I go back, I will have more confidence.”
