Chapter 1886


    Over the next few evenings, Trey would regrly hang out with the girls. They would either find something to eat or entertain


    themselves with some shopping.


    Even on the night when he had to meet the representatives of VV Entertainment to negotiate their business deal, he still met the


    girls afterward.


    Trey may look aloof at times, but he was surprisingly reliable. He always took the group of Caprice, Freya, and Piper to fun


    ces that he knew they would enjoy.


    Since this was a group of people that Caprice was very familiar with, she had a great time every night.


    Aweekter, one night, Caprice, Freya, and Piper were dressed fashionably as always and were waiting for Trey to take them


    out.


    Caprice made sure she had her debit card with her. Trey had been footing the bill for a week, so she figured it was time she


    treated him to something for once.


    After an hour passed and the sky had turned pitch-ck, Trey was still nowhere to be seen.


    Piper called him.


    Caprice and Freya sat nearby and waited.


    Soon, it became evident that Trey had told Piper some devastating news on the phone. Piper’s face was screwed in fear and


    panic.


    She asked anxiously. “Where are you right now? Look, don’t do anything stupid, you have to tell Mom and Dad. They''ll figure out


    something for you. Hey, say something!”


    She removed the phone from her ears and looked at the disy. Her phone’s lock screen wallpaper was shown on the disy.


    Trey had hung up on her.Content held by N?velDrama.Org.


    She tried to call again, but it seemed like his phone was turned off. Her eyes grew red as she slumped into her seat like her soul


    had been sucked out of her.


    “Piper, what happened to Trey?” Caprice asked with worry in her voice.


    Freya regarded Piper with concern as well.


    Piper turned to Caprice, looking like she was going to burst into tears any second. “Caprice, something bad has happened.


    Trey...”


    Caprice grew anxious as well, and she zipped her brows into a frown. “What happened to him? Tell me!”


    Piper tried her best to put together a coherent sentence. “He got set up by VV Entertainment They snuck some nasty use in


    the contract, and my brother did not notice them when he signed it. He only noticed it just now.”


    Caprice asked, “What kind of use did VV Entertainment put in?”


    “| don’t know the details, but the gist of it is that there’s this deadline we’re supposed to meet. The deadline is practically


    impossible for us to fulfill.”


    Caprice had a vague idea of such terms and asked for more details, “What’s the penalty if you can’t meet the deadline?”


    Piper’s voice came out as a strange sort of rattle. It’s ten times the initial investment, whiches down to about ten billion.”


    Caprice grew wide-eyed.


    Freya nearly lost her bnce on the stool. “Oh my God


    Piper covered her face with her palms and began sobbing. “Why? My brother has been nothing but professional and sincere with


    them Their representatives even went to nchester to talk to my father Everything progressed smoothly. What''s with this


    sudden betrayal?”


    Caprice suddenly turned pale as a thought urred to her.


    Could it be Heather?


    No... Freya and Piper had avoided her when they went to Emerald V. so she could not have seen them


    The deal between VV Entertainment and Rockon Technology should be a mutually beneficial contract. Furthermore, there was


    no bad blood between the two corporations to speak of, so why this sudden turn of events?


    Caprice could not make sense of it.


    Piper began to cry.


    Freya did not know how tofort her. All she could do was hold her while casting a frantic look at Caprice.
