Sir Your Wife Already Signed the Divorce Paper

Chapter 19: Troy Doesn’t Believe Her At All

Troy had indeed given his consent initially.

But as Imogen stood there, everything suddenly seemed absurd and surreal.

All of this was happening because of Sarah. Troy’s interventions had disrupted McKesson’s plans, forcing Imogen to clean up the mess each time. The meticulously crafted marketing strategy had turned to dust due to the change in spokesperson. He remained oblivious to her effort to maintain the current stability.

Troy’s devotion to appeasing Sarah had shaken Imogen’s confidence. She felt her credibility waver, questioning whether her dedication and sacrifices were in vain.

In the midst of this turmoil, Charlie’s words struck her like a bolt of lightning, igniting her frustration. “Mr. Marshal agreed? How could Mr. Marshall care about such a minor detail?”

Sarah grinned, her words dripping with a calculated sweetness, “Charlie, everyone understands the ‘minor‘ detail you’re referring to here is minuscule compared to Mr. Marshall’s responsibilities. But every aspect of a shoot, including makeup and styling, holds its significance. I’m curious why Mr. Marshall would concern himself with such minutiae.

Ylah added, “Are you implying that Sarah is lying, Director Forbes? If you doubt, us, you’re free to confirm with Mr. Marshall. He’s empowered us with this decision, and we stand by it unwaveringly. You can tend to the other details. Feel free to terminate the contract if it becomes too much to handle. This endorsement isn’t essential for Sarah.”

Sarah stood in silence, allowing her agent to speak for her.

Charlie fumed, her frustration palpable, but she had no recourse against Ylah’s stubborn stance.

Leaving the dressing room, she clenched her fist in a silent expression of exasperation. “In all my years in this industry, I’ve never encountered such audacity–cooperating with countless stars and witnessing all sorts of behavior. She’s beyond shameless, snatching endorsements from others like Xena and pretending to be a saint.”

Charlie’s reputation in the industry was well–established. Her makeup artistry had transformed mediocre appearances into stunning transformations. Her guidance had propelled a previously overlooked female lead to fame simply through the magic of makeup.

Alex, who had witnessed the exchange, consoled Charlie, “Calm down. Let’s figure out how to handle this situation next. If Sarah refuses to alter her makeup, we might need to adapt the filming plan.”
