Chapter 209

Celine’s eyes widened.

She regarded Nell with bewilderment and fear.

“What, what are you trying to do? You’ve promised...”

“I’ve promised Uncle Morton that I won’t reveal the relationship between the three of us, but on the condition that you don’t offend me. However, if you insist on doing so...”

Nell chuckled coldly and there was a hint of menace in her eyes.

“I won’t be so obliging. Till then, let’s see whether you’ll still be able to sit on your stolen throne?”

“You!”

Nell could not care less about Celine anymore. She got up and walked away.

Their conversation was out of Angel’s earshot. She was mad when Nell left.

“Elder Sister Celine, we ought to call the police or Young Master Morton! She dared to hurt you this way. We mustn’t let her off the hook!”

Celine tightened her fists in rage until her nails were on the verge of breaking.

Yet, when she heard what Angel said, she glared at her with clenched teeth.

“Call the police?”

Angel did not understand why Celine behaved this way, so she simply nodded.

“Yeah.”

Unfortunately, Celine was overwhelmed by fury and pushed Angel away. “Get lost!”

Angel was dumbfounded.

She had no idea what she said wrongly, but she could feel Celine’s wrath and assumed she was still angry at Nell. So, she went over to help Celine up.

“Elder Sister Celine, please.”

Celine took in a deep breath and suppressed the fires of rage within her.

“Take me back to the hotel and tell Tim that I’m not well and won’t be filming today.”

Angel was stunned.

“Huh?”

Celine glowered at her. “What “huh’? Move!”

“But... Are you just going to forget about Nell?”

Celine stared at the direction where Nell had just left and gripped her fists.

“Just you wait, I won’t give up that easily. Whatever she did to me today, I’ll be sure to make her pay for it dearly one day!”

In the end, Angel obeyed Celine and applied for leave on behalf of her from Tim.

Tim was aware of the commotion at the film set, but he did not say anything in front of Angel.

He feigned ignorance and waved a hand. “It’s her loss. Alright then, just one day, but she must resume work tomorrow.”

In spite of Angel’s displeasure, she dared not comment and went back to work.

Meanwhile, Nell sat facing the mirror and allowed Nancy to apply ointment on her face.

She already had makeup on. In order to apply ointment, she had to remove her makeup.

Fortunately, Nell had good skin and required less foundation. She only needed to remove the powder from her cheek and reapply it after the ointment was administered.

Nancy carefully rubbed some ointment on her cheek and grumbled, “Celine is a madwoman! She threw a fit out of nowhere. Look, your face is about to swell.”

Nell noticed the anger on Nancy’s face and laughed. “Fine, she’s in a worse state than me, especially after suffering from that kick of yours. Hey, you didn’t use your full force, did you?”

Nancy let out a “hmph”.

“If I used my full force, she would be sent to the hospital on a stretcher by now, instead of walking there on her own.”

After all, Nancy knew that she could not be too violent on set, lest she made matters worse.

Nell nodded and began to relax a little.

Next, she remembered something and laughed again.

“Looks like Celine’s and Jason’s relationship does have a problem.”

Nancy asked curiously, “What do you mean?”

“She has always been a scheming person, but she’s not impetuous. I noticed this trait of hers when she and Sally struggled to make ends meet until she moved in with us back when she was eighteen. If that’s the case, she overreacted when I merely made some vague remarks today. Doesn’t this show that something is wrong between her and Jason?”

Nancy finally understood it all and acknowledged her with an “oh”.

“Does this mean that you made her angry on purpose earlier?”

“Absolutely!”

Nancy was baffled once more.

“But what benefits does this bring us?”

Nell chuckled.

What benefits? Naturally, there will be some of them.

After all, a cornered beast will do something desperate, right?

When she thought of this, she lowered her gaze and a knowing smile spread across her face. Then, she took out her phone and made a call.

That same morning, an unexpected video appeared on the internet.

It was related to “Cannon Fodder Guide', Celine and Nell again.

Lately, this show and the two actresses often showed up on the hot topic, to the point that netizens were numb towards them.

Nevertheless, when they opened the video and watched what happened, they sucked in a deep breath in shock.

What the f*ck?! That was so violent!

Was this the same Celine Jennings who was always so graceful and tender in front of the camera?

In the video, Celine behaved like a lunatic. She rushed towards Nell and gave her a tight slap.

That scene was brief and lasted for only ten seconds. After the slap, the camera panned to show Nell’s dazed expression and the onlooking crowd’s surprise.

As soon as the video was published, a heated discussion blew up on the internet.

It was worse than the previous photo issue with Nell.

“F*ck me, is Celine crazy? My face hurts after seeing that slap. How could she do that?”

“Could they just be acting? Perhaps it’s part of the script?”

“Probably not, they are wearing regular clothes instead of their costumes.”

“What happened, then? She probably won’t hit someone else for no reason. There must be something going on between them.”

“Assuming there’s indeed something going on between them, she shouldn’t get physical! This is too much!”

“Right, and she puts on a kind and caring front all the time. I can’t believe she’s so evil.”

“As they say, you shouldn’t hit someone else on the face. Actresses depend upon their looks to make a living, and they are in the midst of filming too.

Is she trying to end Nell’s career by slapping her?”

“Watching this pains me, and I’m sure the one getting hit is in greater pain. She has crossed a line.”

“Most importantly, aren’t they sisters? Earlier, during the interview, Celine said that she has reconciled with Nell.”

“Yeah, if that’s so, she must have been lying back then.”

“It’s probably a lie. Why else would she turn her back on Nell and hit her, after reconciling not long ago?”

Spoiled by the President Chapter 208 My Chest Hurts Wrong Ride, Right Lover Chapter 1980 Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around!

Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 “I noticed that Nell really looks befuddled, she probably never expected Celine to hit her. Thus, Celine is most likely the only one stirring up trouble and bullying her.”

“Sigh! And I held her in such high regard. Looks like her so-called grace is fake. She’s so cruel and b*tchy behind the cameras. Notice how swift her actions are, shows that it isn’t her first time doing so. Heck, she probably behaves like that in real life.”

“Her image is ruined.”

“Ruined +1.”

“Ruined +1.”

“Ruined +10086.”

At the same time, Jason, who was seated in the President’s Office of the Morton Corporation, heard a notification from his phone. He looked at it and his expression sank.
