Jilted Bride 69

Chapter 69

Emily's car had just left the parking lot when suddenly, a bucket of yellow liquid fell from above, splattering all over her windshield. Startled, she slammed on the brakes. A foul stench wafted toward her.

This time, Emily's actions were too disgraceful and had angered many people. She felt fear for the first time, quickly locking the doors and trembling as she drove the car, covered in disgusting filth, to a car wash. As a result, this incident made it to the news.

By the afternoon, Emily received a call from Sophia. "Emily, I was busy in the morning and didn't hear your call. I know what happened. I've already sent someone to handle it. You should take some time off, and once the online uproar dies down, I'll help you find other opportunities."

Sophia's tone was gentle and calm, but Emily wasn't having any of it. "You want me to wait? Do you have any idea what 1 went through this morning? I was doused with excrement! It's all your fault for getting me this role. Just stay out of my business!"

"Watch your words! Sophia has been busy with your matters all this time. How can you blame her?" Owen's deep voice came through the phone.

"It's fine. Owen. Don't blame Emily. She's still young. It's my failure as a mother." Sophia's voice carried a hint of tears.

Emily found it quite ironic as she listened.

You need to apologize online. During this time, I will spend money to polish your image, and once the fuss passes, you can reappear before the public with a fresh persona," Sophia continued. Reluctantly, Emily agreed, thinking. It looks like there's no other choice now."

On Monday, the wig and makeup wax Ophelia ordered online arrived. She knew that good makeup could work wonders, so she learned a few techniques from the makeup artist on set yesterday. However, she was not aiming for a glamorous look but rather for an ordinary one, the kind that would make her blend in with the crowd.

Arriving at the stock market, Ophelia looked like a completely different person. She wore black-framed glasses, had ear-length short hair, and was dressed in plain clothing. Since she walked in, no one had noticed her.

Ophelia pushed up her black glasses, staring intently at a stock on the large screen, thinking, This is it, Glorious Union, a medical device company.
