Chapter 36
Judging by the looks they all gave her, it was obvious they wanted her to be kicked out. “What are you waiting for? Pack your stuff and
get the fuck out of here!” Donna yélled at Ariana. Her voice was so loud that the other workers were startled. They quickly lowered their heads and resumed cleaning up.
The tension in the studio was as thick as fog. Just as everyone went about their business, a husky male voice came from the door.
“What the hell is going on here?”
Ariana turned around, recognizing that the voice belonged to Horace-her husband's assistant, the same one she had met at home several times.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
She looked behind him, in hopes that she would see Theodore. She felt a bit disappointed when she didn’t see him there. What was she thinking? How could Theodore show up here when he was still paralyzed and wasn’t healthy enough to work? All the workers in the studio froze when they saw Horace.
Donna, who had been so arrogant a second ago, immediately bowed and greeted him. “Good afternoon, Mr. Silence.”
The other workers did the same.
Brielle curled her lips with contempt. Horace was just Theodore’s assistant. She didn’t see the need to respect him.
She was just about to make a witty remark when Jasper tugged at her sleeve and warned her with his eyes.
“What? Are you afraid of him too? But he’s not Theodore. He’s nothing but an employee,” Brielle murmured under her breath and then pouted like a spoiled brat.
Unbeknownst to her, Horace heard all that she said. He just smirked without looking at her. He then went straight to Ariana and inquired about what happened.
Before Ariana could utter a word, Donna snapped, “Mr. Silence, she’s the one at fault here! She secretly said something to the client, causing him to cancel the shoot and refuse to work with our model.”
“She said something? What exactly did she say?
Since you don’t know what she said, how are you so sure that this is her fault?” Horace queried, frowning deeply.
“Sir, the fact remains that the shoot was canceled because of her. Why does it matter that “Enough!” Horace shut Donna up before she could finish speaking, “Before | came here, | received a message from Ivan. He told me a completely different story.”
Donna’s face changed when she heard this. Flustered, she took a quick peek at Jasper.
Jasper’s face darkened. “The timing of that e-mail is questionable.”
