Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed

Chapter 664

Roseanne's voice crackled through the phone, "After all this prep, isn't it about time we make our move?" "Definitely."

The studio staff nearly dropped their jaws when Nadine waltzed in unexpectedly.

Lulu, puzzled, asked, "What's going on? Weren't you vacationing in Australia, planning to return only when it gets warmer next year?"

Lana shrugged, spreading her hands, "Who knows? Ms. Gordon looked pretty upset when she walked in, didn't seem to hear me when I greeted her. Probably best we tread lightly today, don't want to end up as her punching bag."

"Thanks, Lana, got it."

The moment Nadine entered her office, she instinctively drew the curtains.

Her assistant brought in a steaming cup of coffee, which she clutched for warmth, as if it was the only source of comfort available.

Her mind replayed the incident from yesterday - Madge hitting her head on the corner of a table, blood splattering everywhere.

It wasn't her fault...

She didn't push her; it was Madge who lunged for the computer and hit herself. It had nothing to do with her!

That thought somewhat calmed her, allowing her to take a cautious sip of her coffee.

Suddenly, a commotion from outside her office broke her concentration.
