Chapter 25

Rosalie’s face went pale, her chest heaving with anger stirred up by Genevieve’s sharp words.

However, Rosalie held back from confronting Genevieve. She knew better than to create a scene, especially with the public eye already giving her the side–eye.

The director, still recovering from the shock, watched as Genevieve gracefully made her exit.

However, Genevieve had yet to leave the building. Instead, she turned toward Leonardo’s office, and just’as she had anticipated, an argument was unfolding inside. Voices clashed, and even Walter, the director, was in the mix.

“I get it. You’re not thrilled about Rosalie joining the show. But Mr. Hoffman Just dropped some serious cash. We can’t risk ticking him off, can we?” Walter said.

Frustrated, Leonardo, with his teeth clenched, exclaimed, “That woman’s moral compass is dublous at best. The last time, she nearly jeopardized everything for me. Eagle Entertainment swiftly parted ways with her without hesitation. Yet, what did you do? You went ahead and handed her a judge’s seat. Are you Intentionally reopening old wounds? I will not work with someone like her!”

Walter, feeling helpless in his position, let out a heavy sigh. He said, “It was Alden who personally came to arrange this. He’s still in my office. How can I say no to him? If Anthony would show up next, should I also turn his arrangements down?”

They could not afford to offend a bigshot like Anthony.

Leonardo was too angry to speak.

Genevieve paused, spun around, and headed down the stairs.

As soon as she got downstairs, she caught Aiden standing there in a white shirt, talking to Rosalie.

Rosalie appeared to be in high spirits.

“Thanks for helping me, Aiden. You had always stood by Anthony and me. Let me treat you to dinner someday,”

Rosalie said.

Loosening up in his white shirt, Aiden allowed his tough exterior to soften. “No need to thank me: Your kindness makes you an easy target. Genevieve isn’t someone to lose sleep over. If she causes any trouble again, just eliminate all the interns from her company,” he suggested.

As soon as he finished speaking, Genevieve could not help but let out a soft, mocking laugh while taking the last step down.

The two were caught off guard by Genevieve’s presence.
