True Tycoon Her Empire, Her Rules

Chapter 143

Amber watched with narrowed eyes as Cutler admitted his mistake, cursing him internally for his stupidity. Yet, to maintain a good rapport, she found herself speaking up on his behalf.

“Look, Cutler might have gone a bit overboard, but his heart was in the right place,” Amber said, turning to Winnie. “He’s just worried about you. The glitz and glamour of showbiz can be blinding, especially at your age. Cutler is just looking out for you. Can’t you cut him some slack?”

Sure, the moment Amber spoke up, Cutler brimmed his eyes with gratitude and regarded her as his confidant.

A soft chime echoed in Amber’s mind, with the system whispering: Two more affinities from Cutler.

“Yup, it worked.” Amber thought. With a slight curve of her lips and an unwavering sincerity in her gaze, she looked back at Winnie.

Winnie was unreadable as she faced Amber and said, “So far, the biggest malice I’ve faced on

the show has been from his online trolls.”

Her remark was so sharp that it silenced both Amber and Terrell, who had been trying to make excuses for Cutler.

Winnie didn’t bother arguing with Cutler anymore. She turned to Bacchus and Clifford, her tone neither warm nor cold, but her stance was firm, “I don’t take the mystical lightly and I don’t use it on those close to me. I’ll let Cutler off this time, but I hope this is the last. If not, I’ll settle it my way.”

With that, she turned to Terrell and Janet, her voice softer, “And when that time comes, Lhope you won’t blame me.”

Terrell and Janet were speechless.

“Don’t worry, Winnie. If he dares to pull something like this again, I’ll break his legs myself!” Terrell said, glaring at Cutler with a face like thunder.

Cutler had always been the sensible one, allowing Terrell to focus on the hot–headed Springer. But now, Springer seemed to be getting along just fine with Winnie, while usually responsible Cutler had caused such a stir without a peep.

Terrell clearly declared his stance. Though his words were harsh, it was clear he preferred to handle the punishment himself rather than delve into any mystical methods.
