Perhaps Nelly Jones hadnât been so overlooked, and just as she was about to freak out, Bernice Miller was invited in from outside.
She was wearing a long white dress, her long hair was pulled up, and her delicate face looked even smaller.
I thought this was the third time weâd met. Our eyes met, and she was a little surprised, obviously surprised that I was here.
Before Bernice Miller could speak, her manager, Nelly Jones, said, âBerny, there you are. Letâs do makeup first!â
Bernice Miller said nothing, but looked at me coldly. âMiss Kennedy?â
I smiled and nodded. âHello, Miss Bernice!â
She looked at me from beginning to end, her eyes resting on my face, her brow furrowed with vague anger. âSince when has Miss Kennedy taken my part?â
Jackie said, âMiss Bernice Miller, didnât you say you were sick and couldnât come?â
âSo?â Bernice Miller looked at her and raised her eyebrows. âMiss Wells, do you think I can be replaced by anyone?â
âYeah!â Said Nelly Jones. âIf anyone on the street could be here, whatâs Berny? She only looks a little like Berny, and she thinks sheâs some kind of queen. Thatâs ridiculous!â
âIf you canât speak politely, get out!â Jackie fumed, âThe George group needs a responsible, ethical and positive spokesperson, not a picky eye candy.â
âWho are you talking about?â Nelly Jones stopped faking it and started Shouting at Jackie, âYouâre just a marketing director. You could lose your job just because Berny said something. Who do you think you are?â
âOh!â Jackie almost laughed. âOne word from her can put me out of a job? What? When did the George group go to Bernice Miller? Why didnât I know that?â
âWhy not? After all these years of Bernice Miller and Mr. George, who the hell are you to run wild here?â Nelly Jones was a bit reserved, but everyone could tell Bernice Miller and Dennis had a good relationship.
The onlookers didnât like Bernice Miller very much, but when they heard this, most of them knew in their hearts that they couldnât afford to offend her.
Jackie, a hard-nosed lady, looked at Bernice Miller sarcastically and said, âNelly Jones doesnât know the exact nature of Miss Berniceâs relationship with Mr. George, but Miss Bernice, donât you know it yourself?â
âYou...â
Jackie sneered, âYou must have seen pictures of her when you first got plastic surgery, so your eyes and nose look just like hers. Mr. George got tired of looking at you all these years, and are you still wondering who youâre trying to imitate? Huh?â
This was particularly ironic for a star, let alone in public. She blew the lid off a female starâs plastic surgery.
The reporter who knew how to grasp the hot topic had already thought of tomorrowâs headline copy.
However, when I heard Jackieâs words, I noticed that Bernice Miller and Olivia did dress very much alike. They both loved the pure white dress. If I hadnât seen her twice before, I would have confused the two.
âWhat are you talking about?â Angry, Nelly Jones lunged at Jackie, pushed her to the ground and yelled, âJackie, donât you think you can do anything here, Iâm telling you, I can accuse you of false accusation.â
I went to help Jackie, and she patted my hand and said, âItâs okay.â
She stood up and looked coldly at Nelly Jones with a sneer. âAre you angry because I mentioned your sore spot?â
âYou...â
Nelly Jones was so angry that she pushed me out of the way and hit Jackie directly.
I lost my footing and did not notice that she would suddenly go crazy. She suddenly tore me apart and knocked me unsteadily against the dresser, which was angular and sharp. I hurt my arm and felt numb with pain.
Nelly Jones and Jackie started to wrestle, and no one dared to intervene but say, âStop it!â
But the words seemed extremely weak.
Bernice Miller folded her hands and looked at me coldly.
Jackie, wearing high heels and long hair, was caught by Nelly Jones as if she were being ripped off.
She was scratched several times by Nelly Jones and her face was cut. Nothing was more precious than a womanâs face.
Frowning, I moved to stop her, but Nelly Jones jerked Jackie away as if she was anticipating it.
Then, out of the blue, she slapped me. I was unprepared, and she hit me hard in the face.
For a moment my head was buzzing and my cheeks tingled with pain.
âNelly Jones, how dare you hit her!â Jackie said, taking the mess from her dresser and throwing it at Nelly Jones.
I was standing on the side, and I wouldnât have been hit, but I was suddenly pushed by people around me, and all that mess came down on me.
Jackie froze and looked at Bernice Miller, who was pushing me. âYouâre really mean!â
Bernice Miller sneered, âSheâs just a substitute. Is she so worth protecting?â
Jackie was so angry that she almost blew up.
But Toby, who suddenly appeared at the door, came in and broke up the dispute. Toby looked a little confused when he saw me. âWhy... Whatâs the matter?â
âBernice Miller and her manager played the big game by not doing it, so I asked Clara to do it for me, but they came and they couldnât take it, so they started fighting and hitting her!â
There was something preemptive about Jackieâs words.
Toby looked at Bernice Miller and said, âMiss Miller, if you canât do your job properly, thereâs no need to be in show business anymore.â
Toby was Dennisâs assistant. His words carried a lot of weight compared to Dennis.
For a moment, Bernice Miller turned pale and looked at Toby. âMr. Rollins, arenât you going to listen to everyone and make a decision?â
âThereâs no need! It wasnât Toby who said that. It was Dennis who just walked in.
He walked over to me, his eyes on my face, his warm fingertips on the cheek where Iâd just been slapped by Nelly Jones.
His eyes became cold and grim. âWho did this?â
âDennis!â When Bernice Miller, who had been cold, saw Dennis, her face became warmer.
Dennis ignored her. He just looked back at me with his dark eyes narrowed. âWho did it?â
For a moment the air was filled with tiny flakes of ice, and people looked at each other and guessed.
Please Love Me, Mr. George ï¤Chapter 336 Whoâs the Stand-in Anyway? 1 With anger still on her face, Jackie looked at Bernice Miller coldly and said, âIt was Miss Millerâs manager, Nelly Jones. She had other injuries as well.â
