Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Caroline glared at her, a smirk playing on her lips. "Move aside? For whom? For you? Do you think you're worthy?"

*Smack!*

Caught off guard, Caroline covered her cheek, staring at Callie in disbelief. "Callie! You dare hit me?"

*Smack!*

Quick as a flash, Callie slapped Caroline's other cheek.

"So what if I hit you? Do you think your name is worth mentioning? A country bumpkin thinking she's a swan among ducks? Please!"

And with that, Callie spat right in Caroline's face. Not metaphorically, but literally, sending spit flying onto Caroline's face!

"Ah!!"

Caroline screamed, on the verge of madness. Callie's spit, perfectly aimed, hung from the tip of her nose!

It was an insult no one could bear!

"Caroline, dear!"

Her assistant was terrified. With the Johnson brothers acting as her guardians, Caroline had always had a smooth path in her career, always pampered and adored! Who had ever dared to bully her like this?

Her assistant, hands trembling, fished out a tissue from her bag and clumsily tried to clean Caroline's face.

Meanwhile, glaring at Callie, she blurted out, "Who do you think you are? You're finished in this industry! Mr. Johnson won't let you off!"
