Chapter 2160

Ivy had never been one to splurge on brunches and dinners to butter up her social circle. The distrust served her

right, some would mutter under their breaths.

At the end of the day, it was her lack of social grace that set her apart from the

high-society wives – the basic etiquette she lacked. How could she possibly stand shoulder to shoulder with the likes

of the Balfours?

The more indifferent Ivy appeared, the more pitiful Giselle seemed with her tear-stained cheeks and quivering lips,

which only riled Ivy further. Yet, everyone else seemed to fall for Giselle’s lies.

“If you’re all hell-bent on pinning this on me, then there’s nothing more I can say. I don’t owe an explanation to

those who don’t trust me! When Colton arrives with the updates, the truth will out,” Ivy declared with a defiant tilt

of her chin, which only made her

colleagues loathe her more.

What was she so smug about?

The surveillance footage was clear as day. Who else wore the same outfit as she did that

day?

“Ivy, give it a rest. The footage is crystal clear. We’re not idiots,” someone said, trying to reason with her. “Just

admit it was an accident, apologize to everyone, and maybe take a bouquet to Diana to make amends. If you can

get Diana’s forgiveness, you might still have a shot in this circle. Otherwise, not even I can save you. Ivy, don’t be

so stubborn. Admitting you’re wrong is the first step.”

A bespectacled woman stepped in to stop Giselle, “Why bother defending someone so heartless? It’s pointless! Her

heart’s as black as coal. You can’t reason with her. If you keep her as a friend, you might just be the next one to get

hurt.”

“Yeah, Giselle, keep your distance from her. We all want to keep seeing you on the silver screen. People like Ivy

come and go. If she vanishes, she vanishes.”

Giselle hung her head, the picture of helplessness.

“You don’t understand. Ivy wasn’t always like this. Ever since she got into showbiz, I guess the thirst for fame

changed her into someone I no longer recognize.”

Ivy crossed her arms, eyeing Giselle with disapproval as she narrated their shared history, “Sorry, but we weren’t

exactly close. Why are you so invested in concocting my past? Do you even know what I was like before? We didn’t

even know each other, did we?”

Giselle dabbed her eyes, “Ivy, when will you see the light…”

Upon hearing Giselle’s words, everyone became more convinced that Ivy had been corrupted by the allure of fame

and fortune, unable to bear the thought of her spotlight

stolen by a supporting actress, and so she resorted to sabotage.

“With such devious intentions, she’s clearly not cut out for the entertainment industry. How can someone so fixated

on fame and fortune ever settle down to deliver a good performance?” Even the seasoned cameraman, usually

aloof from the actors’ squabbles, couldn’t help but pass judgment. Giselle’s narrative had swayed the rest.
