Chapter 1112


    “Turn on the TV for me.”


    “Huh?…Okay!”


    The secretary, caught off–guard by her sudden request, quickly agreed. She didn’t know what Ms.


    Summers was up to, but she swiftly headed to the multimedia equipment and turned on the TV.


    Chloe nced at her watch. Perfect timing. The default channel on the TV was an entertainment


    one, currently broadcasting thetest entertainment


    news.


    The scene was a hospital room, which was jam–packed with people.


    “Ms. Watson, we heard you’ve signed with Starlight International. Is that true?”


    Crysti was propped up at the head of the bed, her face pale and weak without makeup. Although


    she looked a bit frail, her features were stunning and there was nothing wrong with her


    appearance.


    At the reporter’s question, a spark red in Crysti’s eyes. She lifted her head slightly, staring


    straight into the camera with an expressionless, indifferent face.


    I’ve signed the contract, so…yes!”


    The room buzzed with excitement.


    “When did this happen?”


    “Who talked to you about it?”


    “Why did you make this sudden decision?”


    Crysti responded calmly. “It happened the morning after my car ident. Ms. Summers personally


    came to talk to me…the reason is simple…”


    A cold smirk surfaced on Crysti’s face, “Because she was the first one to visit me after she found


    out about my ident.”


    Her response left the media dumbstruck. Her answer was indeed quite heartbreaking!


    Earlier that morning, Philip and Melinda had announced their engagement right at the hospital


    entrance. Despite not paying much attention to them before, everyone knew that Crysti was always


    by Philip’s side, and they seemed to be quite close!


    But Philip suddenly got engaged to someone else. And right at the front of the hospital where Crysti


    was staying. That indeed felt a little too much! “I heard Philip had a script in development for years


    and only found Melinda as the lead!”


    “Let’s see how much Melinda invests this time!”


    “It must be a lot. If not, why would Philip have been preparing for years?”


    “True, otherwise why would he risk being criticized and get engaged to Melinda?”


    “But wasn’t Melinda’s father caught red–handed today? And he was involved with his wife’s niece!”


    “Younger than his own daughter, how could he do such a thing? He has no morals!”


    “Offending Ms. Summers from Starlight International, can he still have good days?”


    “I heard today that before Austin could rify, the president of Infinity Media and Melinda went to


    Starlight International, probably to cause trouble!“.


    “Obviously, she heard Ms. Summers and her father have some an affair. Can Melinda tolerate it?


    But I don’t understand why Ms. Wendy also went!”


    “Who knows?”


    As it was a live interview, everyone’s words were recorded. Wendy was getting dizzy from anger.


    But she didn’t understand. What was so great about Crysti defecting to Starlight International!


    “What does this have to do with me?”


    Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.


    Chloe smirked, “It’s all aboutparison. I used to envy you for having a worry–free Melinda. Now


    I have a Crysti! And Melinda should be about ready to end her career!”


    Wendy felt like someone had just jabbed a needle into her brain. The sharp pain fueled her anger!


    “You’re trying to cklist her?!” Wendy’s anger made her words nasal, and seeing Chloe’s calm and


    indifferent expression, she held back her rage and sneered! “As peers, fairpetition is the rule!


    I’ve never heard of apetitor threatening to cklist someone! And…just because you say so?


    You can cklist her?”


    Chloe shrugged her delicate eyebrows, her smile not taking it seriously at all. “Why not?”


    “You…”


    “But you’re right, fairpetition among peers is the rule! If you want topete with me, I have


    nothing to fear, and, I’m more than happy to oblige!”


    Saying that, she slowly stepped closer to Wendy, her cold and domineering aura pressing onto


    Wendy. For a moment, Wendy felt her heart flutter and was a bit at a loss.


    “After all…every time, I gained a lot, Withoutpetition, how could there be progress? Don’t you


    agree?”


    Wendy red at her, keeping her back stiff, unwilling to show any weakness in front of Chloe, but


    her feet involuntarily take a step back. Seeing this, Chloe smirked, lifting her chin slightly, “But


    there’s always a winner and a loser in apetition. I didn’t want to involve Melinda initially. If she


    behaved, I wouldn’t have mess up with her. Unfortunately, today you allowed her toe here!


    Running wild on my turf, I have no reason to let her go!


    Moreover, I don’t even need to lift a finger! After the humiliation I endured at the hotel today, do you


    think…he would sit idly by?”


    Wendy stumbled, her furious eyes wide open to the extreme!


    Chloe looked at Wendy’s expression with satisfaction, continuing. “I don’t need to bully Melinda, just


    make Austin penniless! Then what do you think she amounts to?”


    Her voice suddenly turned icy towards the end, her gaze sharp! She hadn’t forgotten how Melinda


    had just insulted her like her mother did. “Chloe!!!”


    Wendy’s rage had reached its peak. After hearing Chloe’s conversation, she finallypletely


    understood!


    She understood it all!!


    Chloe stood up, raising her eyebrows slightly, smiling at her.


    Wendy was so angry that her whole body was shaking, her face was purple, and her chest was


    heaving! She stepped back, reaching out her hand, her gaze filled with rage as she stared at her,


    completely losing herposed elegance!


    “Don’t y innocent like you had no clue from the get–go!! You… You did it on purpose!! Did you


    know all along that Austin is Melinda’s dad, and that’s why you set it up this way?”
