Encore of the Avenging Muse (Sylvia and Rupert)

Chapter 143

At that moment, Bridget arrived, inquiring about the situation. With a frown and a displeased expression, she glanced over at Freya.

Idiot, how could she let this mess fall into her lap?

With everyone gathered, Sylvia knew it was time to wrap things up.

Adopting the tone Freya often used, she said smoothly, "Freya, you'd better apologize quickly. Making a scene isn't good for you or the studio- especially since you're the one who went out for dinner and drinks with them. Right, Ms. Simpson?" Sylvia threw the question directly to Bridget.

In her past life, the two had teamed up countless times to set Sylvia up. This time, she was letting them taste their own medicine.

All eyes turned to Bridget, Rupert's fiancée, whose words carried weight.

Bridget, fearing backlash, dared not defend Freya.

With a gentle smile, she said, "Freya, apologize now. You should be more cautious in the future."

Freya stared at Bridget in disbelief, her face flushing further as her emotions contorted her expression.

Bridget shot her a warning glance.
