Karina cast a sidelong glance at Rosalynn, then Lowered her eyes and began eating.
Kennedi reached out to serve Karina some food.
âCheer up, Karina.
That guy clearly has no taste if he didnât choose you.
â
A smile tugged at Karinaâs lips.
She didnât want the attention to linger on her, so she swiftly changed the topic.
âBy the way, I wonder how Valeria is doing.
Rosalynn, what a coincidence! She managed to make Eleanor have a miscarriage.
Itâs Like fate sent her your way.
â
Rosalynnâs Lips parted, a response on the tip of her tongue, but in the end, she chose to remain silent.
Today, with Kennedi present, she didnât want to reveal too much of her suspicion towards Eleanor.
âRosalynn, does Valeria still live in Huttonââs apartment? Lucky guy, isnât he? Actually, I should give him a call.
â
Karina proceeded to make a video call to Hutton, and within moments, the screen displayed his face.
âKarina, what a surprise! What brings you to call me?â Hutton asked with genuine curiosity.
âI just wanted to see how wonderfully your life is going,â Karina replied, a mischievous smile playing on her lips.
âNot too bad,â Hutton answered nonchalantly.
âItâs hard not to be happy when youâre in the company of a famous star like Valeria.
â Karina playfully rolled her eyes at him.
âWhere is Valeria, by the way?â
Before Hutton could respond, Valeriaâs face appeared on the camera.
âKarina, were you looking for me? Did you read my mind and decide to call?â
Karina chuckled in response.
âValeria, what are you talking about?â
âWould you take me in if I wanted to join your company?â Valeria asked with a smile.
Blinking her eyes in feigned surprise, Karina replied, âValeria, are you serious? If youâre serious, Iâd be more than happy to have you.
Valeria smiled, a hint of self-mockery in her expression.
âKarina, Iâm nothing more than a tarnished star now.
Even though Iâll be terminating my contract with the agency soon, my reputation is in tatters, and no other agency wants to work with me.

Karina glanced at her, a touch of determination in her eyes.
âValeria, donât belittle yourself.
I genuinely believe in your innocence, and time will prove everything.
Besides, if I were to sign a contract with you now, youâd probably feel awkward about offering me a high price, wouldnât you? Well, then Iâll take advantage of that, wonât I?â
Valeria found Karinaâs words amusing, her Laughter bubbling forth.
âKarina, you are so good at doing business.
Iâll work for you and make a lot of money.
â
Karina grinned, relishing the flattery.
âI love your sweet talk.
Keep it coming.
