Filed To Story: My Accidental Bride Is a Fashion Circle Queen Novel
Upon seeing Luke, Lisa’s Grandfather was immediately reminded of Holden’s words. He did not look pleased as he questioned Luke rudely, “Young man, don’t you think it’s inappropriate for you to be waiting outside my granddaughters home in the middle of the night?”
Luke didn’t understand why Lisa’s Grandfather was hostile towards him, so he immediately explained, “I was told that Lisa went to pick you up, so I wanted to see if you needed help with anything.”
“No need. Please leave.”
Lisa smiled at Luke awkwardly; she too did not understand what was wrong with her grandfather. Of course, Luke couldn’t continue to stick around. He politely said, “Good night,” before disappearing from their sight.
“Lisa, tell me honestly, are you entangled in a relationship with this man?”
“Grandfather, what are you talking about?”
“Mr. Leangley told me you are somebody’s mistress!” Lisa’s Grandfather scolded as he pointed to Lisa’s nose. “Don’t ever see that man again.”
Lisa was in shock. At the same time, she felt a little angry. She had never imagined, Holden would be despicable to this extent.
“And your boss, Emma. President Lopez is such a lovely woman, why are you guys bullying her and going against her?”
“Grandfather! Did you know Xanthe was holding you hostage? President Lopez wanted to use you to threaten Emma. Emma was the one that got you out of there…” Lisa anxiously tried to explain.
“Hostage? I think there must be something wrong with your brain. President Lopez gave me good food and drinks. She took good care of me and even took me out to fun places. It’s nothing like you think.”
Lisa: “…”
She suddenly found it hard to explain the scheming tactics of the entertainment industry.
She felt a bit helpless. This old man had been too easy to manipulate; he was using the fake words of others to hurt his own people.
After putting her grandfather to sleep, Lisa gave Luke a phone call and apologized, “I’m so sorry that my grandfather was being impolite today. After being locked away for a few days and fed lies by Xanthe and Holden, he is being critical towards me as well.”
“As long as he is OK,” Luke replied casually like he was unfazed. “I am currently playing a game. You should go to sleep early.”
“OK, good night.”
The way Luke spoke to her made Lisa feel a bit uneasy. But, why should this bother her? It’s not like Luke would ever like her.
In reality, after hanging up the phone, Luke was also feeling a bit uneasy. He couldn’t say that he wasn’t affected by Lisa’s Grandfather’s hostility; he was only being nice, yet who would have thought a misunderstanding like this would ensue.
His heart felt a little strange; it felt different to when he was upset in the past…
…
It was a cold winter’s night. After taking a shower, Emma threw herself into Eric’s warm embrace. As she leaned back and used his arm as a pillow, she started speaking, “Xanthe isn’t normally like this. Why would she give me an international show? I thought she was dying to tear me apart…however, JK’s show is indeed very tempting to me.”
Eric hugged Emma and wr*pped his strong legs around her gentle body, trapping her completely in his embrace.
“If she wants to give it to you, then take it…”
He knew, no matter what Xanthe did, it would be merely pushing Emma towards Kaleidoscope.
Of course, Emma was also well aware of this.
“In that case…do you want to come with me to London?”
“When is it?” Eric asked.
Emma thought for a bit before replying, “We should be departing next Wednesday.”
“We are nearing the end of the year, so there are more and more awards ceremonies and events…”
“It’s OK if you cant make it,” Emma replied softly. “To be honest, every time we’ve gone overseas, you’ve had to make preparations well in advance; it’s been making my heart ache. I will be in London for one week. During this time, stay in New York and don’t work too hard.”
Eric did not respond, but it didn’t mean he didn’t have his own thoughts.
But, if Eric didn’t go, what were the reporters Xanthe organized, going to take photos of? Would they return with nothing?
…
The next morning. The biggest daily newspaper published an article explaining everything that happened at Hai Yi Center. With Kaleidoscope’s supervision, the media placed all the focus on Danika bullying Emma’s assistant. They focused on how she schemed against them, slapped Lisa, humiliated Lisa and p**ssured her to kneel before her; the entire incident was depicted vividly. They explained that it was because of all this that Emma decided to retaliate…
The most startling revelation came from Kaleidoscope. They exposed that Emma’s assistant, Lisa, was the fiancee to Eric’s assistant, Luke. So, Luke came to the rescue for a reason.
The article stated that Emma and the CEO of Kaleidoscope, Eric, had no special relation to each other, they were merely friends and didn’t need to provide any further explanation.
After Kaleidoscope stepped out to protect their staff and reveal the truth, readers could quickly differentiate bet**en right and wrong.
As for the brand that was affected by Danika the night before, they decided to step out and announce they weren’t happy with her, and because of her character, they would forever blacklist her.
Of course, although most of the netizens exp**ssed their understanding towards Emma’s actions, a hidden danger was also created for her.
“I never imagined the usually calm Emma would have this side to her. 5 slaps in succession…how satisfying!”
“Emma must have reached the limit of her tolerance for her to retaliate like this…I think she is so cool.”
“I’ve followed many celebrities and seen many that treat their assistants as a normal person, but I’ve never seen anyone protect their assistant to this extent. I don’t have much to say; just one simple word: Cool!”
“But, in the end, Emma also hit someone. Doesn’t this mean she is no different to Danika?”
“The prude above, that’s because your relatives weren’t the ones being bullied. If that was the case, wouldn’t you explode in anger too?”
“I just don’t understand how Emma’s assistant ended up like a slave in Danika’s hands. Without a higher-up’s permission, this couldn’t have possibly happened.”
“Are you guys still discussing this matter? Today is Monday, LM’s finalized commercial is already online. Let’s hurry over and enjoy it…”
At the same time, the viewership of Emma’s interview on A-List Chats was revealed. Her popularity was comparable to some of the most famous actors and actresses.
After LM’s commercial was released, the number of views skyrocketed. Within one day, it had reached over ten million views.
Regardless of everything else, it seemed Emma had a stable standing in New York for the time being. At least, with her popularity and the number of discussions about her, in the short-term, there was no need to worry that she would disappear from the limelight.
This was originally something H World Entertainment should celebrate. Even though Danika was destroyed under the hands of one of their own people, Emma’s momentum was going strong. According to the current trend, it was only a matter of time, before she surpassed Danika.
In just 3 months, Emma had taken down everything in her way and came out on top.
This shocked many in the entertainment industry and also made many of them envious!
