Chapter 552
Shona Bennett sauntered into the crowd; her eyes were icy cold. ‘A no-name actress daring to act so brazen?”
“Shona, you…”
Joie’s face turned beet red. She’d been in showbiz for a couple of years. With a couple of decent works under her
belt, she was seen as
a rising star.
People even called her the next big thing. Why was she just a nobody in Shona’s eyes?
“Joie, the people invited tonight are either award-winning superstars or A-listers with high commercial value. Who
do you think you are?” Shona’s words hit Joie where it hurt. “You’re just riding on the coattails of the Salter family.
What’s there to be proud of?”
Joie’s face reddened even more. “Shona, why did you help Brittany after what she did to you?”
Brittany’s video had painted Shona as the other woman.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhy didn’t she retaliate against Brittany but help her instead?
“That’s none of your business,” Shona’s indifference left Joie speechless.
Other than stirring up trouble, she had no other cards to play.
Joie didn’t dare to offend Shona. After all, the Bennett family had some clout in the entertainment industry.
She left with her friends.
Brittany didn’t expect Shona to help her. ‘Ms. Bennett, thank you.”
Shona felt some guilt towards Brittany
“Ms. Dustin, I’ve been wanting to talk to you.” Shonas words were filled with sincenty. “What happened five years
ago is not what you
think.”
Brittany said, “I know. You and Mr. Salter never really got engaged.”
Shona hesitated, “How how have you been these years?”
Back then, Brittany was poisoned and barely survived. Shona couldn’t find an antidote.
Seeing Brittany alive and well then was a miracle
Brittany was puzzled. ‘I’m fine. Thanks for asking”
Shona wanted to say something else, but Brittany saw William and excused herself to join him. “I thought you had a
meeting tonight?”
William held her hand and said, “I ended it early. I was worried about you.”
“Who would bully me?” Brittany wasn’t used to holding hands in public, but she didn’t resist.
The two of them walked hand in hand into the venue, causing quite a stir.
Shona saw them and was dumbstruck.
She instinctively looked toward the second floor
A tall figure stood on the balcony. His eyes were filled with rage and hatred.
Even from a distance, Shona could feel the chill emanating from him.
Brittany and William were together?
What about Isaac?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs the only one who knew the truth, Shona sensed trouble and quickly went upstairs.
But before she could reach Isaac, she was stopped by Nathan. ‘Sorry, Ms. Bennett, Mr. Salter isn’t seeing anyone
right now.”
“Out of my way!” Shona pushed Nathan aside, but before she could reach Isaac, she was stopped by a wave of
chill.
She instinctively swallowed. “Mr. Salter, are you okay?”
Isaac didn’t respond. He raised his hand. “Nathan, check up on the Dillion family. The more detailed, the better.”
“Got it.”
Nathan immediately understood that Isaac was about to make a move.
Shona was shocked. Isaac and William were childhood friends. Was Isaac going to sever ties then for Brittany?
Isaac stared at Shona, his eyes were cold. “Care to strike a deal?”
Shona Instinctively backed off.
Isaac leaned in and whispered something in her ear. Shona’s eyes widened.
Had he lost his mind?
