Chapter 689
The Woman From Hell
When the call connected, Heidi tapped on the loudspeaker and screamed into the phone with her
arms akimbo. "I'm Heidi. Does your artist know which company she works for? Our company
announced a week ago on the internet that the promo will be released tomorrow. The reporters and
media have all been notified. If we don't shoot the promo today, what are we supposed to deliver
tomorrow?
"Listen up, I want her here today even if sheâs going to die tomorrow. Otherwise, sheâll bear all the
costs that'll befall Grant Corporation."
I was stunned, looking at Heidi.
The agent was startled by her and said in a trembling voice, "But Serena is really ill. We're on the
way to the hospital. Can we talk to the media about postponingââ
"Who are you to decide whether this should be postponed or not?" Heidi interrupted her. "Do you
run Grant Corporation? If she doesn't show up today, not only will Grant Corporation's stock prices
drop but just the compensation alone which we need to pay the brand is nothing she can afford."
Once she heard what Heidi said, the agent panicked." Uh... Uh... Let me discuss it with Serena
again."
Heidi sneered. "I'll give you half an hour. If she doesn't come after half an hour, then don't bother
coming at all."
"I think Serenaâs too full of herself. Just because she attended several events with Mr. Grant, she
thinks she's the boss here and can do whatever she wants."
"Forget about her usual stuck-up behavior, I canât believe she doesnât even take this seriously
enough."
The group started complaining.
Half an hour passed and Serena was still not here yet. Heidi turned to look at me.
I felt goosebumps under her scrutinizing stare. I swallowed my saliva. "Do you want to call her
agent to rush her again?"
Heidi snorted. "Iâve already made it clear enough. It's too humiliating for me to call her again."
"W-What... are you going to do, then?"
Heidi smirked. "Serena looks a lot like you, Miss Wanda. Sheâs just not as good-looking nor as
elegant a s you."
"Thatâs true.â Everyone turned to look at me.
I could somewhat guess what she was trying to do. My mouth twitched. "Uh, it's getting late. I
should go back."
Heidi clasped her hands together and put them in front of her chest, looking at me with dazzling
eyes. "
Miss Wanda, can you please do me a favor?" "Miss Heidi, you can't possibly be thinking about
asking this lady to replace Serena to shoot the promo?"
"I think it's a good idea."
While listening to what the people around me were saying, I sighed helplessly. "Do you really think
it's okay?"
Heidi nodded. "You have similar facial features as Serena but have a much more outstanding
temperament.â
After a pause, she continued, "If we donât shoot the promo today, Grant Corporation will suffer a
loss. If that happens and Mr. Grant blames me for it, I might even face unemployment. With that
being said, can you please help me, Miss Wanda?"
U H
"Please.â Heidi pretended to look pitiful.
She was now much livelier than when she used to work with me. She was also much more
unctuous now.
I sighed helplessly. "But I rarely take photos. If you want me to shoot a promo, I'm afraid I wonât do
the job well."
