Horace smiled politely, ignoring the sarcasm in his tone, and went on. “It’s simple professional etiquette. It’s good that Ivan went out of his way to explain things to the management. According to him, he canceled the shoot because the model spoke ill of his designs and refused to act according to his suggestions. He said that he can’t work with such an arrogant and difficult person. Although he wanted to terminate the deal completely, he decided to continue cooperating with SJ Entertainment on the condition that the key model must be changed.

The onlookers began to murmur as soon as they heard this statement. Their opinions of Ariana changed.

Brielle’s face darkened. How dare Horace tear her down in the presence of all these people? She was so angry, but she decided to clear her name before things turned sour for her.
