Chapter 181

Brian had vital work to deal with today. On top of that, he had a video conference at noon, so he did not have time to go to the set.

Ava was feeling uneasy in her room. Yesterday’s incident had dealt a huge blow to her. She felt that she had lost all face in front of Grace. She did not want to see Grace again!

After thinking about it, she went to Brian’s room.

Brian glanced at her and asked coldly, “What’s the matter?”

Ava sensed he was in a bad mood, but she still mustered her courage and said, “Brian, look, you are swamped with work and supervising the set. How tiring is that? Actually, Mr. Booth can handle things on set. Why don’t we go back to Capern City?”

Brian looked up at her. “Are you telling me what to do?”

Ava was anxious. He must have stayed here for Grace!

She tried to reason with him, saying, “Brian, isn’t what I said reasonable? You might as well…”

“Get out!” Brian suddenly interrupted her coldly.

Ava’s heart trembled in fear as she pleaded, “Brian…”

“I told you to get out. Didn’t you hear me?”

Ava gritted her teeth as tears welled up in her eyes. She turned around and ran out of the room.

Ava stormed all the way to the set.

At the filming location, Grace was lying on a chair and had fallen asleep. She had dark circles under her eyes, and her lips were as pale as a sheet.

After filming a scene, the director noticed that Grace had fallen asleep on the chair when he wanted to ask her opinion. Just as he was about to wake her up, Nancy hurriedly gestured for him not to disturb Grace. Nancy then went to find an eye mask for Grace.

Ava witnessed this scene as soon as she arrived on the set. She walked over angrily and grabbed Grace by the arm.

Ava shricked, “Did you think the company sent you here to sleep on the job?”

Grace woke up with a start. She was so shocked that she sprained her ankle as she fell to the ground.

Nancy turned around and saw Grace lying on the ground. Ava looked at Grace arrogantly and kicked her in the leg. Ava urged, “Stop pretending! Hurry up and get up.”

Nancy’s eyes widened in anger. She rushed over, grabbed Ava by the arm, and slapped her hard.

Ava was stunned. Her eardrums were ringing from the slap.

Nancy squatted down and helped Grace up. “Grace, are you alright? Did you fall on your belly?”

13:04 Sat, zu Apr 8 AM 211 Ava came back to her senses and glared at Nancy with red eyes. She screamed, “You bitch, how dare you hit mel She raised her hand, wanting to slap Nancy back. However, Nancy stopped her mid–action.

Nancy looked at her coldly. “Miss Adkins, I won’t tolerate your behavior. I’m not working at the Francis Group anymore. So what if Mr. Francis is protecting you? Do you think I’m afraid of you? If you want to fight, come at mel Ava screamed and kicked Nancy. The two of them were soon locked in a catfight.

When the crew saw this, they quickly pulled them apart. Ava’s hair was messy, and she was still cursing Nancy as they were pulled apart.

Seeing this, Mr. Booth immediately called Brian.

When Brian arrived at the set, he saw Grace wiping Nancy’s face and combing her hair. Ava was sitting alone in a chair with an ice pack on her face. Ava was clearly in a worse state.

Nancy had mustered all her strength and vented all her anger from being tricked by Ava.

When Ava saw Brian, she immediately rushed forward to complain to him.

“Brian, you have to help me!”
