âDonât you even think about using my mom to threaten me!â
Esme felt very carefree as she smiled. It had been a long, long time since she felt this good.
Looking at the usually high and mighty Helena who was now shaking like a leaf, Esme was on cloud nine!
The immense pleasure she got from serving this revenge was erupting rapidly in her heart.
Esme could not help but continue to unveil the truth about Helena. âThis woman who looks so pure and innocent in public is actually ruthless and vicious. Donât be fooled by her appearance. She is not what she looks like at all. I have endured her violent behavior for too long. Everyone, take a look at thisâ¦â
As she said that, she rolled up the sleeves of her dress.
All the bruises and scars on her arms were openly displayed to the world as the camera shutters once again went off crazily.
âHoly moly! Look at all those wounds.â
âHelena is too much!â
âHow could she do this to a young girl?â
The crowd was stunned once again.
There were quite a few female reporters at the scene. They, along with the male reporters, all threw hateful looks at Helena.
âMs. Uber, can you explain the meaning of this?â
âHas your assistant done anything wrong?â
âHow could you resort to such violence?â
Helena kept shaking her head frantically. Fear was written all over her face. âNo! I didnât do that. Donât believe what she says! I have never laid a finger on her. I would never abuse her. She doesnât know what sheâs talking about. Sheâs framing me! Donât you guys see? Sheâs a liar!â Helena blurted out each sentence in a flurry of panic as her brain struggled to come up with a solution.
No! I wonât let Esme destroy me. I cannot admit to it. Never! If I admit the truth, Iâm done for. This movie is supposed to help me rise to fame. I cannot lose everything that I have now!
âThose bruises have nothing to do with me. Sheâs a clumsy person and bumps into things all the time.
Now, sheâs putting the blame on me.â Helena continued to find excuses.
She scowled at Esme before she went on to say, âYou have always been jealous of me because Iâm an actress and earn more than you, while youâre just a measly assistant. Esme, your salary as an assistant is considered high, and I treated you so well. Your mother is sick. Iâve been helping you out by paying for her medical bills. Now that Iâm being targeted by everyone on the Internet, how could you also turn against me?â
While reciting her speech, Helena was even able to shed a few crocodile tears. âEsme Pearson, Iâve been nothing but kind to you. How could you do this to me?â
Esme tittered. She never thought that at a moment like this, Helena would still try to turn things on her.
Helena was completely twisting the truth and slandering Esme with her lies.
She pulled on Esmeâs arm and shook it uncontrollably. âEsme, tell me. Tell me! Why are you doing this to me?â
For a moment, the crowd was silent.
The press could not tell who was telling the truth and who was lying.
âI have proof!â
Suddenly, a crisp and cold voice sounded from behind the audience.
Everyone immediately turned their heads to see who had spoken. What they saw was a tall and slender woman dressed in a khaki coat. She exuded an imposing aura as she walked in with confidence.
Her long hair cascaded down her back, framing her delicate, emotionless face as she stared straight at Helena.
The pair of icy cold and strong eyes seemed to know everything.
It was as if every dirty little trick and scheme of Helenaâs was about to be revealed.
âAshlyn?â
âOh my God! Itâs the God of Cars, S!â
âWhy is she here?â
God of Carsâ popularity was much more prevalent than a small celebrity like Helena. If they could land an interview with God of Cars, that would be like hitting the jackpot.
The reporters swarmed toward Ashlyn like bees. âS, I mean, Ms. Berry, how do you feel after winning the world championship?â
âIs it true that you and Jared are dating?â
âMs. Berry, how do you have such excellent driving skills?â
