Chapter 21

We're divorced, so what's the point of him calling me? Is he trying to mock me? He blocked me on WhatsApp, so I'm just doing the same thing by blocking his number on my phone. We've both done the same thing once, so fair and square.

After shooting the last scene at the studio, Mia bowed to the staff from the production company and voiced out sweetly, "Thanks everyone for the great effort. I've ordered some drinks for everyone and it's right outside. You can take one each when you're on the way out."

"Thanks, Mia. You've worked very hard too."

"I mainly stood there and posed for a few shots, so my job's not as tough as yours. You guys should go back and get some good rest. I'm looking forward to our next collaboration."

It seemed that her shoot was not over as she was still putting on an act of courtesy in front of everyone; as soon as she turned around, her face shifted instantly. She quickened her footsteps and headed back to her dressing room. Subsequently, she slammed the headpiece in her hands onto the table. Bang! "These bunch of so-called professionals must be idiots! They took so long to complete a few simple shots! Did they think that we're filming a movie here?"

As she spoke, she turned around to berate her personal assistant, "I've told you so many times not to accept such cheap and low advertisement jobs! Do you think that I'm not worthy of better gigs?"

Prior to this, she had just obtained a chance to appear on an international platform. She had also gained ambassadorship for a renowned brand by relying on Aidan's influence. Right now, by choosing this inferior advertisement, it would be a significant drop in her status.

Her personal assistant silently replied, "This advertisement would provide a huge exposure and it would be very helpful in building up your popularity."

"What's the point of gaining popularity? I don't need something insignificant like this. They should honestly review themselves. They're not worth my time at all!"

Her personal assistant stopped speaking as she thought, Mia was the one who personally asked to be part of the advertisement three months ago. She had basically forsaken her image to beg for this chance. However, ever since she became entangled with President Pearson, she’s had a complete change in character. She seems to think that she's better than everyone now.

After Mia's tirade, she took out her cell phone to check out the public comments on the Internet. However, as soon as she clicked on Twitter, she saw Leanna's response to the matter and the statement that Lux Jewelry posted.

Mia clenched her teeth and thought, I can’t believe that Leanna's still well and fine after such a huge commotion!

She was about to create some more trouble for Leanna when suddenly, a sharp woman's voice rang out in the silent dressing room.
