Chapter 44 The Arrogant Woman

Karlie and Michael were a PR couple, a setup that worked out well for both of their futures.

Before today's big event, Karlie invited Michael so they could attend again as a publicity stunt, but he replied saying he had some urgent stuff to handle and suggested she go solo. She figured he was busy networking with industry folks. She never thought he'd show up with Chloe, a total outsider, tagging along.

Chloe wasn't exactly a knockout, but if photos of them together got out, it could mess up their image as a couple.

What really got under Karlie's skin wasn't just Michael showing up with Chloe. It was Chloe's makeup-Karlie instantly knew it was Michael's work. Known for his thoughtful nature and skills in image design, Michael had always turned down Karlie's requests to do her makeup. Yet, here he was, having done a stunning job on Chloe.

She greeted everyone politely, though she couldn't help but shoot a venomous glance at Chloe's back. Women were sensitive creatures. When Chloe turned around and saw Karlie's blank face, she teased Michael. "Michael, your on-screen partner doesn't seem too happy, huh?" Michael scratched his head, "Really? I didn't notice."

"I did. You should go and comfort her. If she gets mad, it could be a problem."
