Bogus Billionaire
Brittany noticed Eddy and raised her eyebrows in surprise. She said, âYouâre here too, Mr. Eddy.â
âYes,â Eddy answered halfâheartedly.
He looked back at Brittany and asked, âWhat are you doing here?â Although he already knew the answer, he didnât want to admit the truth.
Brittany replied, âMs. Evans hired me to handle her PR case.â
ttany and asked, âWhat are you doing here?â Although he already knew the answer, he didnât want to admit the truth.
Brittany replied, âMs. Evans hired me to handle her PR case.â
Susan was shocked by Brittanyâs words. She looked at Caroline in disbelief.
Eddy had already guessed it, but he still had a mild scowl.
âBut as far as I know, you donât usually go out and handle cases yourself,â he said, looking at Caroline.
âYouâ you didnât do this for my sake, did you? Sheâs already my exâfiancée. You donât have to-â
Brittany was still polite to Eddy, but she couldnât resist Interrupting him. âYouâre mistaken, Mr. Eddy. Iâm here because Ms. Evans caught my eye.â
Eddy remained silent.
âIf thereâs nothing else, may I ask both of you to leave? I would like to talk to Ms. Evans in private.â
Brittanyâs team escorted the baffled Eddy and Susan out of the office.
By now, many people had gathered outside Carolineâs office. After hearing that Brittany was here, they had wanted to see if it was true.
When they saw Eddy and Susan leaving the office, they were talking.
âWhatâs going on?â
âIt sounds like Caroline hired Brittanyâs PR team.â
âCaroline is pretty badass. She can even hire someone like Brittany.â
âI donât know. Only famous stars can hire her, right?â
âAll I can say is that Caroline has an amazing network! I envy her!â
Brittany remained silent during the discussions outside. She gently closed the door to isolate the noise.
She asked, âShall we start, Ms. Evans?â
Caroline nodded slightly and asked Cheryl to pour Brittany a glass of water.
Brittany became a different person when she was at work. She said methodically. âIâve gotten a general understanding of your issue. I heard that you already have evidence to accuse your parents. Is that true?â
âYes,â Caroline said, matching Brittanyâs attitude. She opened the email sheâd received from that mystery person.
âI was kidnapped by someone a month ago, but I managed to escape. Later on, I found out that the people who kidnapped me were hired by my mother.â
There wasnât a single change in Brittanyâs expression.
âPerfect. If we post this piece of evidence online and hire some bloggers to get it circulating, we can get more people to know about the truth. Things will likely settle down in less than three days.â
Caroline smiled slightly. âThis isnât what I want.â
Brittany was surprised by her words. She said, âYouâre a loyal daughter, Ms. Evans. You donât want your parents to be affected by thisâ¦â
âNo.â Caroline got up. She handed a laptop to Brittany. âAfter the accusations blew up, this happened to my house.â
Brittany looked at the pictures on the screen. âThis is normal. Some extreme or egoistical people will retaliate against people involved in scandals.â
+15 BONOS Caroline shook her head. âAfter the situation turns around, you can release these pictures to the public to garner sympathy for me being persecuted.â
A gleam of interest appeared in Brittanyâs eyes.
âI want everyone to sympathize with me. Then, I can legally propose to sever ties with Sarah and Dan,â
Caroline declared.
Brittany felt a chill up her spine from Carolineâs last words. She no longer looked at Caroline politely like before. Instead, she looked at her with admiration.
