Chapter 56 Caleb’s Wrath
Thinking of Morgan’s attitude, Sheila returned to her room in anger.
She perceived a subtle change in Morgan’s reaction today. He used to value her above anything else. He would help get justice for her without hesitation. Today, however, she pleaded with him but he stayed unmoved.
She gritted her teeth. The thought that he might want to bring Eva back to the Sommers family was crawling under Sheila’s skin.
Her insecurity didn’t come out of nowhere, though. After all, she was adopted, and Eva was his biological daughter. Everything she had now should have belonged to Eva. But Sheila wouldn’t just hand it over without putting up a fight. She trembled at the thought of being sent back to that poor village.
Eva Sommers, just you wait!
The was one sleepless night.
The next day, Sheila was in a bad mood after being turned down couple of times. It happened that her agent Renee went in to discuss something with her. So, Sheila took it all out on Renee.
Renee hated to be the doormat, but could not afford to resent it.
In the entertainment industry, there were countless celebrities with a big temper. Sheila was definitely one of them, but she always pretended to be innocent and kind.
“Do I pay you for nothing? Can you just do one thing right?”
Why did everybody come to sabotage my business and not Eva’s! Sheila’s eyes were green with envy.
“Please don’t be mad. I’ll hire more trolls. It’ll work.” Renee just got back from talking to Bonnie, whose imperious attitude filled her with pent-up anger. “Do you remember that company I told you about? It’s a little over our budget.”
“If they can handle this mess, give them whatever they want.”
Sheila couldn’t think of anything. All she knew was that she just appeased Brody, so there was no way she could trouble him again. Plus, the evidence against her was overwhelming. If she couldn’t find anything to refute that, people wouldn’t be convinced. Hence, she gave Renee’s proposal a green light.
Renee called the company and instructed them on the phone the minute she walked out of the room.
The strength of this company specializing in selling trolls was not to be sniffed at. As long as the hirer could pay, they could do anything.
Bonnie was on her laptop finishing her work when a piece of news popped up on the window that read “inside scoop of the injury on set”. After reading the news article, she was utterly exasperated.
The article claimed that the recording was done when Eva was seducing Simon Brew, and that she bought off those people to testify against Sheila at the press briefing. It basically averred that Eva was a liar and a hypocrite.
The article was vicious and came with pictures. Bonnie sensed that there was something wrong with it and immediately notified the public relation department of Luxstar.
They intercepted the news and kept the damage it could have done to a minimum.
Because of this, Luke Pearce grew skeptical towards Renee and started look into this person. He dug out all the horrible things she had done to Eva.
At the CEO’s office, Lumenstone.
Caleb was leafing through a pile of files. The more he read about it, the more infuriated he was. When he got to the part where Renee made Eva take the role of a homewrecker in a show and even asked Eva to entertain a client, the paper crumpled in his hand.
It was Renee who had been sabotaging Eva’s career.
“I want Renee Morin to disappear from this industry,” solemnly, Caleb ordered Luke, who was standing upright in front of the desk.
“Yes, Mr. Livingstone.”
“Get to it now.”
Luke nodded to Caleb and walked out of the office quietly.
“Eva was already signed by Luxstar, and this Renee Morin is still trying to plot against Eva. What a dummy. Mr. Livingstone won’t let her off that easily.” Luke thought, shaking his head helplessly.
Renee was gloating over the fake news she had made, completely unaware of her impending doom.
When Nathan knew that Caleb wanted to teach Renee a lesson, he showed his support by asking his assistant to pull some strings and make it difficult for Renee in the showbiz.
No one could mess with his sister-in-law!
Renee was about to sign a contract with a potential client today. They day before, they had already reached an agreement of some sort. However, they suddenly turned her down without any explanation.All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
Not only that, but all the contracts signed by Renee were terminated.
Sheila finally erupted when she got the eighteenth phone call telling her to end the collaboration.
“What the heck is going on? Tell me! Why is everyone ending the partnership with me all of a sudden? Why!” Sheila swept everything on her desk to the floor, questioning Renee, her eyes blood red.
Renee didn’t have a clue. She tried to contact several companies that were interested in partnering up with her but was rendered with no luck.
Luxstar had already told every company to stop working with Renee. Luxstar was the tycoon of the showbiz that no one dared to go against. Renee, on the other hand, was nobody. It didn’t matter if they step on her.
The next day, Renee’s scandals made headlines. Being involved in a love triangle, framing her colleagues, fabricating evidence, and plotting against other celebrities were all elaborated in an article that was illustrated with pictures.
This agent, Renee Morin, actually had no news value at all. However, her scandals were pinned on the headline sections of all major websites for a week.
Now, no one in the showbiz would work with her anymore.
In order not to let Renee’s scandals affect her, Sheila posted a video apologizing for Renee and saying that she had no idea that Renee did all those disgraceful things.
After that, Bonnie made a post for Eva that said since the truth had been brought into daylight and Eva’s name had been cleared, she would let it go.
Seeing that, people had a completely new appraisal of Eva, admiring her kindness and generosity. For this reason, Eva left a good impression on the mass. Many people apologized to Eva for their hate comments through private messages.
Eva’s post actually alleviated the tension on Sheila’s side.
The next morning, when Eva found that her account had gained millions of followers overnight, her eyes widened in surprise. This was totally out of her expectation.
Of course, she couldn’t achieve this without Bonnie’s help.
