Chapter 502
Bogus Billionaire
âMs. Evans, Soniaâ
Caroline looked at the smile on Daphneâs face and felt a fire burning in her chest.
Her gaze settled on the reporters enthusiastically snapping pictures behind Daphne, and the rage on her face melted into a smile.
âMs. Dawson.â
Daphne felt like Caroline was different from before. However, she couldnât put her finger on what was different.
Thinking about how the role would definitely be hers, though, she didnât care anymore.
She was grinning as she looked at Caroline. Lowering her voice, she said in Carolineâs ear, âYou sure are brave. Everyone knows this role is mine, but you still showed up anyway.â
Since they were so close, everyone thought they were whispering to each other and assumed that they had a close relationship.
The smile on Carolineâs face widened. âDo you think itâs yours just because you say so?â
Amusement tinted Daphneâs eyes. âOh, are you really naive enough to believe that talent is more important than having a backer in the entertainment industry?â
At this, Daphne moved back slightly, her face alight with joy.
Caroline maintained her smile as she said, âI donât understand the entertainment industry, so I donât know how it works.
âI came here today to show the Morrison family that they canât just do anything they want just because theyâre the top family in Easton.â
Daphne was taken aback for a second. She had no clue what Caroline was talking about.
Behind her, the cameras kept flashing. After calling Caroline a nutjob lowly, she went backstage with her manager.
After Daphne left, Sonia said to Caroline, âCaroline, letâs go too.â
âAlright.â Caroline nodded, and they both went backstage.
Biker than Paphine theis wais many sther misi selebrities backstage sines everyone knew the tole hehsuged to baphone, they were only theis to play along Pone of the other ashisease had as much clout as Daphine, so the makeup artists and costumers backstage all surrounded Bapline and spoke respectfully to her Ale Bawean your skin is perfect Ate Dawson? You should call her Mie Morrison, tenât that right, Mrs. Morrison?â
Paphne was overjoyed âOh, how sweet you all are Actually, it desenât really matter what you call How can that worke Youâre Mr Eddyâs second aunt! We should be calling you Mrs. Mottison.â
The crew littered some mor âCarolineâ Soma tugged Caroline from where she had nervously sat down for her makeup to be done She wasnât nervous because she would have to go onstage. Rather, it was because of Carolineâs she asked in concern when Caroline finally looked over âAre you e ght?â she asked n Caroline forced a smile âIâm fine â
She just felt very annoyed when she heard those people calling Daphne Mrs. Morrison.
In the past, she hadnât understood how such a refined woman as Gwenâs mother could become so terrifying in the face of her husbandâs cheating Now, she finally understood Although Caroline was angry that Kirk had lied to her, she was still jealous. Envy bubbled in her heart, overflowing in such a way that she wanted to throw caution to the wind and fight Daphne.
She had really gone mad It was clear that Kirk was the one at fault in this. Daphne might not have a clue about it, either. But Caroline didnât feel like beating Kirk up at all. She got jealous instead.
Caroline let out a soft breath. It was fortunate that she would be divorcing Kirk tomorrow When the time came, they would be far apart, and she wouldnât have to worry about losing herself in this relationship.
After taking a deep breath, she put on a bright smile. âAll the best, Sonia. Iâll head to the audience seats new.â
âAlright.â
After Caroline left backstage, she followed the staffâs instructions to head to the audience seats.
Right then, a gorgeous woman with blonde hair and blue eyes walked over. A familiar scent wafted off her and drifted to Caroline.
