Chapter 21

When staring down the aggressive paparazzi, Nancy's face turned sour, her lips pressed into a thin line. Cyrus strutted off with Hayley in tow, leaving Nancy surrounded and bombarded with questions. That was revolting!

Caleb was about to dive into the fray when a calm voice cut through the chaos.

"You couldn't get a scoop on Cyrus and Hayley, so you turned to Ms. Gonzalez? You're picking on the easy target, are you?"

Not just Caleb but Nancy turned to see who had come to her defense, spotting Baldrick standing at the back of the crowd.

The paparazzi were momentarily stunned, taking a few seconds to regroup.

"Baldrick from the Robertson Group! When did Mr. Robertson get back to town?"

Mr. Gordon has wrecked my camera.

"You admit Mr. Gordon has wrecked your camera, so why are you pestering Ms. Gonzalez about it? Anyone would think Ms. Gonzalez smashed your camera." Baldrick smirked, his voice carrying a chilling edge.

Paparazzo argued, "But Mr. Gordon and Mrs. Gordon are married. Shouldn't Mrs. Gordon compensate me?"
