Jilted Bride 68

Chapter 68

Emily stormed into the director's office and walked straight up 15 Ophelia. In front of Williarn, she tried to keep her cool, but her voice couldn't hide her anger. "Ophelia, come with me. We need to talk." "What is there for us to talk about?" Ophelia colilly looked at her

Ophelia's indifferent demeanor made it seem as if she did not recognize Emily, treating her like a clown putting on a one-man show.

Emily particularly hated the look in Ophelia's eyes, her face twisting in anger. "Do you want me to say it publicly? You are a member of the Hastings family. Do you want to embarrass our juirents?"

More than a dozen staff and actors were present. They were already curious about the new investors, and now they paused their work, their eyes revealing a sense of gossip.

"So they are sisters?" someone whispered.

They aren't biological sisters." another person countered. "Didn you see the gossip online before? Emily is the adopted daughter that the Hastings couple mistook for their own. Ophelia is probably their biological daughter. So now that the real heiress has returned, the status of the adopted daughter has drastically diminished."

At first, they envied Emily for being the female lead as soon as she joined the cast. But now she was suddenly replaced overnight. The staff thought it was because Ophelia was suppressing Emily at every turn, so Emily was truly pathetic.

Ophelia remained unfazed, leaning back in her chair with her elbow resting on the armrest. "Go on. I'm listening"

'Will still be this calm in a moment, Emily thought, pulling out a photo of an old man from her phone and holding it up in front of Ophelia.

Emily asked, "Ophelia, you should recognize this man in the photo, right? You are already married, and everything you have now is honored by this man. Yet you take advantage of the fact that no one knows you are married, and you keep a call boy. What you're doing is despicable!" Ophelia thought, 'A call boy? This must be the first time Kenneth has been treated as one in his life.

Emily believed Ophelia was just putting on a brave front, swiping her phone screen to find a photo of Ophelia with a young man from behind. She thought, "With this photo as evidence, how can she argue her way out of this?"

Emily clenched her fists, getting up from the ground and preparing to attack Ophelia. But before she could reach her, two security guards suddenly appeared and grabbed her arms. "Who are you? Let go of me! Ophelia!" Emily struggled desperately, feeling like her arms were about to be crushed by the two massive men, cold sweat breaking out on her forehead. Meanwhile, Ophelia remained composed and at ease, looking at her as if she were
