Penny was fully awakened by the phone call.However, she had been blocked.She tried calling several times, but there was no response.She did not know why Caleb was angry this time and decided to wait until the morning.In the morning, she attempted to call again.She was still blocked.Winona arrived at Dawn Haven Villa early in the morning, saying that public opinion had reached its peak."Ms. Sullivan, Florence is still frantically smearing your name."Penny opened the trending topics to see that the top ten were still related to her. Netizens continued with their harsh criticisms.Since so much time had passed and Florence saw no rebuttal from Penny, coupled with recent rumors of Caleb having a new love interest, Florence guessed that Penny did not dare to refute. It was probably out of fear of offending her."Let's get all our people to bash Penny. Everyone must assume she's that despicable woman!""Ms. Turner, what if Penny responds?"Florence's face was full of arro
Usually, netizens would often say that the men were disgusting and unbearable in such scandals.Yet in these videos, Florence took her disgusting performance to the extreme. While embracing two male stars, one on each side, she looked utterly delighted.To her oblivion, the male stars' faces showed traces of disgust. However, because she was the boss, they had to accompany her.Was this not the very definition of casting couch?Netizens exploded in response.[Florence deliberately misguided the netizens to bash Penny, right? I can't stand it. It's really gross. Don't watch the videos, guys! I almost threw up.][The male stars are really pitiful. I think several of them were not very willing.][Penny got wrongly accused again, and until now, there's no evidence about her so-called casting couch. It's always just netizens guessing, then followed by clarification. Penny is truly miserable.][Florence has a grudge against Penny, remember? Penny only got an account on Instagram beca
The fact that Florence had instructed that Caleb be invited for dinner at this time meant she was confident he had left Penny. It was why she dared act so recklessly. Caleb soon received Florence’s dinner invitation. He scrolled through his various social media apps. Since he had already enabled push notifications for trending news related to the entertainment industry, he knew what topics had gone viral on the internet recently.Given the timing Florence was reaching out at, there was no doubt she wanted to ask for his help. He put his phone down, his face devoid of any expression. Soon, Sebastian entered the room. “Ms. Turner has called me twice to express her wishes for a meeting this evening, Mr. Fergerson.”“I won’t see her.” “Ms. Turner is offering a 100% cut of the profits for all future collaborations.” “Sebastian, expose Florence for forcing her female artists to act as hostesses."The only artists who had gone viral at this point were males, and they were a
While everyone was still pinning the blame on Florence, Astral Motion announced that Ms. Florence Turner had resigned. However, that did not satisfy the protective fans. [Florence Turner should be thrown into jail! Have the relevant authorities conduct a thorough investigation! We demand justice!][This reminds me of a previous conflict between Astral Motion Pictures and S.M. Didn’t Astral Motion use all sorts of shady tricks as well then? Penny Sullivan’s company only got their screenplay approved because she exposed everything online. Astral Motion is a terrible company through and through.][Can she clear her name just because she’s resigned? What about all the artists she forced to be hostesses? I’m willing to bet they were forced to do more than just have drinks. Everyone in the company is corrupted. Launch an investigation against them! The people will not rest until that happens!]Rumors continued flying online, but Astral Motion Pictures did not provide any further infor
Before knowing Penny was his cousin-in-law, Liam had always felt confused and indifferent whenever she came up in conversation. Similar to most, he had always wondered how a woman like her managed to marry into the Fergerson family. However, things changed after he knew who she was. Not only was Penny talented at painting, but she had also made a name for herself in the interior design industry. Now, she had attained huge amounts of success running her own company. Only women like her could be a match for his cousin. Khloe Strauss came from an extremely influential family, but she was also extremely sheltered. In comparison, Penny, who had gone through all sorts of hardships, was a much better match. Penny would have been even more successful if she came from a family like Khloe’s. That was what Liam liked about Penny. Penny felt touched by Liam’s support. He had also helped her while she worked on the Kensington Gardens project. “Relationships are not something outsiders
Finn walked over with a solemn expression on his face. “Caleb, my boss has just warned me that I’m no longer allowed to conduct any investigations related to Cas.”He had only learned that Caspian had been conducting experiments on human subjects because he had utilized the Sanders family’s connections. Such studies were banned worldwide, and if word of this got out, all participating countries would be criticized by the media worldwide. No one could withstand that sort of responsibility. Caleb’s gaze remained concentrated on the computer screen. He was still staring at that line of poetry, which was the only clue they had so far. However, Finn turned off the computer and put away all the files. “Things with Cas are really complicated, and we won’t be able to produce any results in the short term. It'd be wonderful if we could find someone who’s been in contact with him recently, but we haven’t been able to locate anyone so far.” Caleb put down the file he was holding. “
Caleb tossed and turned the entire night. He first dreamed of the time he and Penny protected themselves from the sandstorm in Union County by taking shelter in a cottage. Sand blew in all directions as gusts of wind raged outside, but it was calm and peaceful inside the cottage. Then, he dreamed of the people who had been taken hostage by the hoodlums in Union County Plaza, and how they had worked together to make it out of the situation alive. He also dreamed of the times their bodies had intertwined and how he had kissed every part of her body, including the most intimate parts. Caleb always woke up really quickly when he had those dreams. The intensity of his dreams was a stark contrast to the emptiness he felt in real life.He shut his eyes, hoping to drift off into those dreams again. However, he could not fall asleep no matter how hard he tried. Hence, he took a cold shower and drove to Dawn Haven Villa despite it being four in the morning. Before the sun had even r
When Khloe saw the public opinion this morning, her face turned sour."Ms. Turner, how dare you come to me? I've shown you mercy by not having you thrown into jail. You don’t expect me to save your cronies too, do you?""Ms. Strauss, I’ll do anything you want if you help me!"Khloe was applying her nail polish indifferently. She barely even glanced at Florence."Then you should show some sincerity first. Do something that pleases me."This was Khloe’s way of instructing her to go after Penny.Florence took a deep breath. She knew she had no other choice."I understand. Ms. Strauss, just wait for the good news."Khloe sneered at this, clearly not taking her words seriously.As Florence was leaving, her eyes were filled with malice.She was ruined by Penny. That marketing account that kept leaking information about her company must have been developed by Penny.That fucking bitch!Florence inhaled deeply. As she began reviewing the recent events, she thought of the Baileys.
