True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules

Chapter 134

Mervin’s sudden interruption had left Kathryn without a chance to exchange contact information with Kane. Yet, even if she had spoken up, it was unlikely that Kane would have obliged. The perfect excuse was at hand – no phones during filming.

It was just as well that Kathryn hadn’t asked. Had she done so in front of the live cameras, she would’ve been torn to shreds by Kane’s legion of female followers.

How dare she make a move on their idol after the bullying scandal? The audacity!

Winnie had been monitoring the situation with Kathryn but chose not to intervene, especially since the topic of Amulets always seemed to be a slippery slope. Just after Suzan had asked. Bailey to help get a protective charm, had it not been for Winnie’s prior instructions, her cover might have been completely blown by now.

Although the Hendersons‘ issue was unresolved, Winnie had given her final advice. It was now up to the family to decide. Yet, deep down, Winnie knew Barton would choose to abandon the mansion. The whole ordeal had become too public, involving not only the neighbors but also Barton’s business associates. Superstitions ran deep in business circles, and no one wanted the bad karma of dealing with a family living under the same roof as a ghost.

Even the show’s official Twitter account, opened just for Winnie, had gained nearly a million followers. Not that Winnie cared much for fame or planned on capitalizing on her sudden surge in popularity.

As Bagot was about to wrap up the shoot, a familiar sight made his heart sink – a police car was approaching. His hand froze mid–air as the rest of the crew tensed up. Memories of yesterday’s live stream shutdown surfaced, and, now this new development seemed like an ominous déjà vu.
