Chapter 589

Caroline wasn’t one to gossip. She wanted to ask Cook about what had happened.

Just then, she heard someone mumble timidly from behind her. “Sorry!”

She frowned upon hearing the voice. The person who was apologizing was none other than Cheryl.

Turning around, Caroline looked in the direction of Cheryl’s voice to see a haggard–looking Cheryl standing at the door of a fitting room with a bundle of clothes in one arm.

A woman with an ugly frown stood some distance away from Cheryl and the fitting room.

Her wrathful face made her look as though she was a cat whose tail had just been stepped on.

A tall woman with prominent facial features stood behind the angry woman.

Caroline instantly recognized the tall woman. She was Aurora Jenner, the infamous actress who was known worldwide.

As one of the first few actresses who had made a name for herself in Macldo, she had been Easton’s pride.

Nevertheless, she was no longer brought up that often ever since she changed her nationality and became a Macldian.

Caroline only knew about her because Aurora had returned to Easton for career purposes. Besides, she had also gotten into a relationship with Aiden Hackett’s son, Asher.

That was why Caroline managed to recognize her at first glance. The person standing in front of her, presumably her assistant, was still cursing at Cheryl.

“Do you really think we’ll forgive you just because you apologized?” she snapped:

“Why would we even need the police if apologies could solve everything?”

“Are you saying that one can only atone for their sins through death?”

Caroline couldn’t stand it anymore, so she stood in front of Cheryl to shield her from the furious woman, who was indeed Aurora’s assistant, Amy.

Amy didn’t falter, even when Caroline stepped up to rebuke her. Instead, she seemed even more arrogant than before.

“It’s good that you have at least this bit of self–awareness. Just die already and show that you’re sorry.”

Caroline furrowed her brows at those words. A moment later, though, she let out a bark of laughter and slapped Amy across the face.

“Your level of self–awareness is pretty high, eh? Shouldn’t you die already to apologize for tainting my hand by making me slap you?”

Amy was livid with rage, so much so that her face was as red as a ripe tomato.

Part of the reason that her face was so red was that Caroline had used quite a lot of strength.

Besides that, Amy’s face was also red with humiliation and fury.

Although Aurora often bossed her around, the others in the entertainment industry followed her orders all the time because of Aurora’s status. No one had ever had the guts to hit her like this.

With her hands raised, Amy advanced toward Caroline like an angry beast pouncing on its prey.

However, Caroline shoved her, making her fall to the ground. It happened so quickly that Amy looked up from the floor in a daze.

Caroline stared and smiled mockingly at her. “Let’s go, Cheryl.”

If they couldn’t shop at this store, they could simply shop somewhere else. There was no way that all the stores had crazy people in them.

“Stop right there!” Amy shrieked as she got up from the ground and blocked Caroline’s path.

“Just wait! I’m calling the cops, and I’ll have you two locked up!”

Caroline ignored Amy and glanced at Aurora, who was watching the whole fiasco unfold in silence.

Nevertheless, Caroline had had her fair share of interactions with people in the entertainment industry. Aurora’s indifference was proof that she had enabled Amy to be so self–conceited.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have kept quiet. By doing so, she could put the blame on Amy if the public found out about this in the future.

To put it simply, the most significant thing in the entertainment industry was the actions of those around the stars instead of what the stars themselves did.

“It’s just a slap, yet you’re making a fuss by calling the cops. I won’t stop you, though.”
