His tone was cautious, almost reverent-nothing like the ruthless mogul who could flip the entire entertainment industry with a word.
I found it amusing Michael always showed a certain fear and respect around me. I quite liked that.
Behind us, Vera’s face twisted with disbelief Clearly, she hadn’t expected Michael to be so deferential toward me
She tried to butt in. “Michael, you-
Bun Michael cut her off with a sudden sharp glare, his expression turning cold, voice filled with threat.
What was that you just said? You were going to do what?”
He didn’t bother softening his words..
Vera visibly flinched, panic flickering in her eyes.
Still trying to hold her ground, she snapped back, “Do you know who I am? I’m the Greyhound Pack’s heiress! Ask Leslie if you don’t believe me!”
She really tried to use me to back her up?
I couldn’t help but laugh lightly. I neither confirmed nor denied a thing.
Let her flail-this drama was hers alone to play out.
Michael let out a cold laugh, the corners of his lips curling up with disdain. His eyes held nothing but contempt.
“Your father wouldn’t even dare speak to Leslie that way.”
“And you think you can?”
His attitude was ice-cold, showing exactly how little he cared about Vera or her so-called power.
Leslie’s POV
Vera clearly had no idea who she was dealing with when it came to Michael.
She’d thought that since they were both big names in the entertainment industry, Michael would give her some face. But judging by the look on his face now, she couldn’t have been more wrong.
She forced herself to keep her composure. “Michael, I came here to talk business.”
She deliberately emphasized the word “business,” as if trying to recover a shred of authority.
Michael wasn’t having it. His tone was blunt and impatient. “You’re in no position to talk business. And we don’t have time to babysit nobodies. Annie, call security and have her escorted out.”
“Yes, sir.”
The receptionist responded immediately, her movements sharp and efficient.
Michael turned back to me with a confident smile. “Don’t worry, Miss Leslie. You’re absolutely safe here.”
I gave a small nod. Vera’s threats didn’t even make me flinch.
Gang rape? Please. The girl really had guts saying something that bold.
Michael and I stepped into the elevator together, the atmosphere noticeably lighter.
I pulled out my phone and sent him a voice recording-it was something I’d secretly captured earlier at the entrance when Vera ran her mouth.
She probably never imagined I’d be one step ahead of her.
“This should clear Lorde’s name.”
I kept my tone even. I wasn’t about to let that girl’s wild accusations drag someone innocent through the mud.
Michael listened to the clip, and a slow grin crept onto his face. He teased, “Miss Leslie, you’re a real strategist, aren’t you…”
I shot him a look. “I’ve already instructed a full acquisition of Greyhound Pack. The shareholder meeting will announce control transfer this afternoon. You good on your end?”
He instantly dropped the joking tone, face turning serious. “Of course. What Miss Leslie wants is what Aurora Entertainment wants.”
His answer was firm and absolute.
I was pleased with his cooperation.
I smiled slightly and added, “Once the takeover is done, you’re going to have your hands full.”
Michael caught on immediately-he knew I was handing him Greyhound Pack to manage.
He couldn’t hide the grin spreading across his face. Clearly, he was more than happy to take on the ‘burden.’
“Well, I guess I’ll just have to work a little harder then. Gotta keep up while I’m still young…”
He tried to sound lighthearted.
I couldn’t help rolling my eyes. The man was pushing forty and still dared to call himself young?
After we wrapped up the conversation about the acquisition, I suddenly thought of someone and brought him up.
“How’s Lorde doing?” It’s tough for a newcomer to get caught in a scandal like that right out of the gate.
“He’s alright. His team was pretty shaken though. They tried to plead with Greyhound and got thrown out-his manager was scared out of his mind.”
Michael chuckled. “But now that you’re involved, Miss Leslie, it’s all under control.”
I raised an eyebrow. “Good. Make sure he gets extra support. He only got dragged into this mess because of me.”
“Don’t worry. Who would dare mess with Miss Leslie’s man?”
“Shut up.”
I glared at him. Seriously, people who hang out with Carl never manage to speak properly for more than two sentences.
With business settled, I left in my heels without looking back. If I stayed any longer, I might just punch someone.
Less than ten minutes later, before Vera could even make it back to report to her daddy at Greyhound Pack, that voice recording was already trending as the number one topic on the internet.
And the public wasn’t just interested-they were outraged.
Every corner of the online world started digging into Vera.
Turned out she’d been suspended in high school for bullying an Omega in her pack and was sent abroad to “reflect” for a year.
After coming back, she developed a crush on Kirby and got rejected. That’s when she went in for plastic surgery-there wasn’t a single natural feature left on her face.
And the second she heard Kirby broke off his marriage contract, she raced back to try her luck again…
But what people loved most was the last part of that voice recording:
“Miss Vera, is this because of Kirby? I don’t pick up what I’ve thrown away. You should go tell him to stop showing up in front of me. You want to blacklist Lorde? I’ll make him a star. I just want you to know who actually calls the shots here.”
Within minutes, the comment section exploded.
“Oh my god, the confidence! That’s it, my new life goal is to be Queen Leslie.”
