Chapter 696
Within the confines of the grand mansion, Sarah was in the throes of a tempestuous rage. The venomous comments online had struck her like a bolt of lightning, igniting a fury that manifested in the hurling of objects and a cacophony of furious yells.
The revelation that Sie possessed recorded conversations between her and Charlotte was a blow she had not anticipated. Charlotte, that despicable creature, had shattered the illusion of her 'good girl' persona that she had meticulously crafted over the years. It was as if her carefully constructed facade had been consumed by a raging inferno, leaving nothing but ashes in its wake.Sarah's agent was equally flustered. Ever since the scandal had erupted, her phone had been a relentless source of bad news. The incessant ringing heralded a series of contract terminations. Even the major film roles she had previously secured were now being snatched away by the remorseless film company."There's no escaping the reality," the agent confessed, her voice heavy with resignation. "Sarah's reputation is in tatters. The online backlash is too severe. We simply cannot afford to take this risk."The agent's words hung in the air, a bitter reminder of the predicament they found themselves in. "If it weren't for Lucas's involvement, the fallout from her tarnished image would have been catastrophic. Contract termination is the best we can hope for under the circumstances."The agent, growing impatient with Sarah's tantrum, urged her to take action. "Instead of throwing a fit here, you should be seeking out Lucas. He can secure the best PR team for you.""But he's not answering my calls," Sarah retorted, her voice trembling, her eyes welling up with unshed tears."Then go find him. He has to help you," the agent insisted, her hand gripping Sarah's in a vice-like hold. "Remember, you possess something he desires."Sarah was taken aback by the agent's words, but soon a sense of calm washed over her. She realized she was not in a desperate rush. As long as Lucas was within her grasp, she could weather this storm. Even if her reputation was in ruins today, she could still stage a triumphant return with a blockbuster film tomorrow.Later that afternoon, after conducting an inspection of the company, Sie was approached by Jan. In hushed tones, Jan revealed, "Sie, the trending hashtag about Sarah has been suppressed."
"Who did it?" Sie inquired, her curiosity piqued."I heard it was Lucas who made the arrangements," Jan replied.Sie raised an eyebrow in surprise. Despite Sarah's true nature being exposed as nothing more than a vindictive woman, Lucas was still shielding her. Had he fallen so deeply for Sarah that he was blind to her faults? It was unlike Lucas to act so unprincipled.Jan sighed. "If Lucas is indeed involved, then we might be in for a rough ride. His influence in the entertainment industry is formidable.""Regardless," Sie responded, accepting the situation with grace, "Sarah's innocent image is ruined. It will take her some time to make a comeback."Just as Sie was processing this information, her phone rang.
The voice on the other end was light-hearted, "Hey Sie, seems like you're having a grand time in Madison. Remember, I'm landing soon. Would you mind picking me up tonight?"
