Will You Marry Me, Again by Pear Heart

Chapter 294 You Might Be Acquired

“How dare you say that about me, Maia? Do you think you’re so great just because you’re the CEO of Starlight Entertainment? Do you think you can monopolize the entertainment industry? Dream on! Mykonos Studio and Starlight Entertainment are evenly matched.

“If anything, my company has been doing better than yours in recent years. Starlight Entertainment merely started picking up in the past few months. Anything can happen to it in the future. Someone might just acquire it tomorrow!”

Scarlett composed herself. The arrogance in her tone when she talked about Mykonos Studio was hard to miss. Obviously, she was a big shot there. It was all but confirmed that she and Victor had an adulterous relationship!

Why would Victor spare the popular celebrities? That was the way it was at his company. If a female celebrity wanted to secure resources and increase her value in his company, then she would have to sleep with him!

Maia merely grinned. Scarlett was not the first blowhard she had seen in her life, nor would she be the last. She walked toward Scarlett and stopped right in front of her. Maia put her slender arms on Scarlett’s shoulders and whispered so only both of them could here what she

said.

“Don’t get too excited. Your company might just end up being acquired. However, it’d be wise to stay low. You know better than me just the sort of twisted relationship you have with Victor. Who’s going to end up miserably if it ever got out to the public, I wonder?”

Maia turned around and left with Hope. Scarlett paled. Her legs gave out and she supported herself by grabbing at a table. Her friends realized it and asked, “What came over you, Scarlett?”

She gritted her teeth and shrugged them off. Then, she looked at Maia and said madly, “Maia! Do you know you’re just a CEO? What’s so great about you? You freaking divorcee!” With that, Scarlett left the buffet section, looking arrogant as usual. However, she was beside herself with rage.

Hope saw Scarlett’s expression and the way she left the scene. She said as she handed Maia a plate, “What did you tell Scarlett, Maia? She looked miserable…”

“She was scared of me.”
