Chapter 255

Grace and Abigail exchanged glances and took out their phones, opening the live streaming app.

Elizabeth’s live stream had already surpassed ten million views.

She was crying in front of the camera, tears streaming down her face, complaining to the audience in the live chat about being informed by the company yesterday that her sponsorships were temporarily suspended. It seemed like she was going to be put on the shelf by the company.

pitifully talked about how she had a sleepless night because of this, covertly implicating Abigail, suggesting that Abigail had caused her current situation.

She also mentioned that because Peter’s bed and the actress in the photo had a similarity to her, she had endured an undeserved calamity and faced baseless criticism. She emphasized that she and Peter were just ordinary friends.

In the hospital room, as she put on a show of tears and sobbing in front of the camera, the atmosphere became heavy.

Grace looked at the comments in her live chat, and many people had started sympathizing with her.

Because Abigail’s interview had just ended and hadn’t been posted online yet, Elizabeth’s act of playing the victim had resulted in a wave of criticism directed towards Abigail. Many netizens who were unaware of the truth accused her of being scheming, deliberately seeking attention, and other things.

The public opinion on Peter’s cheating scandal was also being heavily debated, with opinions divided.

“How could this woman be so shameless! I hadn’t even started anything with her, but she insulted. me first!” Abigail felt disgusted looking at the screen with the fake grieving face.

She wanted to throw her phone, but she thought it was too expensive. She was a girl who had gone through hardships and couldn’t bear to buy a new one.

In the end, she could only fiercely pound the pillow. She imagined the pillow as Elizabeth and wished she could immediately turn her into a pig’s head with her pounding!

Grace looked at her venting and shook her head with a smile. “Why are you getting angry? She’s just trying to disgust you. If you get really angry, you’ll fall into her trap.”

Grace then looked at Beth, and said, “Ignore Elizabeth, let her make a scene. The more she fusses, the more she’ll embarrass herself in the end!”

“Yes, Miss Grace.”

Grace called Beth again. “Tomorrow, find a popular infGraceencer to post on Twitter. Say that the mosaic covered photo has been traced back to its source and it reveals that the female star involved In Peter’s cheating scandal is Elizabeth. Half an hour later, announce on the official angle account that we have terminated our contract with Elizabeth and that she is leaving the Butterfly Girl group.” Originally, Grace had considered Elizabeth’s reputation as a girl and had put a mosaic on her face. plGalen for Abigail to deal with her privately. But she didn’t expect Elizabeth to be so restless and keep pushing it further.

Well, then she couldn’t blame Grace for not giving the despicable woman any face.

After arranging everything, Grace asked Abigail to continue packing her things and prepare to leave the hospital.

“There will probably be media coming to interview you every day in the next few days. My 17:11 suggestion is that you’ve already made a statement once, so don’t accept any more interviews. It’s best for you to remain silent for now, it’s most beneficial to you.”

Abigail nodded. “Okay, I’ll listen to you.”

Grace thought for a moment. The apartment you were staying in is probably being surrounded by reporters and the media. I’ll arrange a place for you where no one would dare to disturb you.”

She pondered for a while. In the entire S City, there was probably only the Smith Tamily that reporters and the media wouldn’t dare to disturb..

“Let’s go. I’ll take you to Patrick’s villa and settle you there for a few days.”

“Oh, is it Mr. Patrick Smith?” Abigail felt a little embarrassed. “Isn’t that inappropriate? Wouldn’t it be too much of a bother to him?”

“No, Patrick has many residences. He rarely stays in the villa at the Smith Family’s estate. And event if he does come back. I’ll explain the situation to him in a couple of days. So you can stay there without any worries. It’s very quiet there, and no one will disturb you.”

Abigail fell silent. She would only be staying there temporarily for a few days before leaving. By then, she would clean up Mr. Patrick Smith’s villa thoroughly, so there shouldn’t be any problems, right?

“Okay, I’ll listen to you.”

Grace accompanied Abigail, who was all bundled up and ready, as they left the hospital and headed towards Galen Mountain.

Patrick had previously given her the keys to the villa. She handed them to Abigail and gave her a few instructions before returning to Angle.

As they reached the CEO’s office on the top floor, a captivating and glamorous woman stood silently by the door, engaged in conversation with Beth.

Beth caught sight of Grace approaching and hurriedly ran over. “Ms. Grace, this Miss Ava insists on seeing you. I told her you weren’t here, but she insisted on waiting.”

The woman with her back turned to Grace heard the commation and turned around gracefully, smiling beautifully as she politely extended her hand.

“Miss Grace, hello, I’m Ava.”

Grace neither shook her hand nor responded.

From the moment Ava turned around, Grace noticed that there was something strange in her gaze.

Moreover, she felt that she had seen this woman somewhere before, but she couldn’t remember where.

Ava, nineteen years old, young in age, but already a top–tier actress in the entertainment industry.

However, there’s no smoke without fire.

Angle had not collaborated with Ava Mitchell before, so her sudden appearance meant that it couldn’t be anything good.

“What brings you here, Miss Ava?”

Although Grace didn’t shake her hand, Ava smiled elegantly and didn’t seem to mind. She politely said, “Miss Grace, I have a matter to discuss with you.”

* I’ve always wanted to meet you. Now that I’ve seen you, Miss Grace herself is indeed beautiful, much better looking than those unknown minor stars.”

This comment was a veiled mockery, implying that Grace was not as famous as her.

Grace understood the meaning but simply smiled.

This made Ava even more pleased, as she raised her chin arrogantly and said, “The reason I came here today is because I am the latest spokesperson for the Rossi project under the Grant family. I heard that CEO Storm has a very close relationship with Miss Grace, so I came specifically to take a look.”

“You’ve seen me, now you can leave,” Grace said with a feigned smile.

Ava shook her head and, in front of Beth, looked directly at Grace and said, “Miss Grace, I have something else to inform you. I have taken a liking to your man and want to compete with you. fairly.”

Before Grace could speak. Beth got angry first.

“Just because you have more fans and popularity, do you think you can walk all over us? CEO Storm and Director Grace are already engaged. What qualifications do you have to demand fair competition?”

Ava didn’t think much of it. “Engagement is just engagement. Until the moment they sign the marriage certificate, everything can still change, right, Miss Grace?”

This was something she had once said to Sarah Grammer.

Grace furrowed her brow and suddenly looked up, once again gazing at Ava’s face, which was youthful yet beautiful, with a hint of sarcasm. “What do you mean?”

Ava pouted and playfully smiled, “No other meaning, I know Miss Grace comes from a good family background, in that aspect, I can’t compare to you. But don’t underestimate me, Miss Grace. I may be young. but I can hold my position as a top actress firmly. Moreover, my influential father is quite powerful!”

She leaned closer to Grace and whispered, “If Miss Grace is willing to give up CEO Storm to me, I will tell you, alright?”

Grace’s expression turned cold. “My relationship with him is a business alliance, not something that can be easily given up. If Miss Ava is so capable, why not try for yourself?”

“True, the best things are always the ones we seize with our own abilities, Grace couldn’t be bothered to continue with the idle talk and gave the order to see Ava off. “Beth, escort Miss Ava out of Angle.”

Just as she turned around, ready to enter the office, Ava suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist.

“Miss Grace, don’t you think you’ve been cruel to CEO Storm all along? You only love yourself, and you’re not good to him at all. It’s better to let go and give him to me.”

Upon hearing those words, Grace’s expression grew increasingly serious. She turned around and carefully examined Ava.

“How do you know that I’ve been cruel to him? Where did you hear this? What else do you know?”
