Chapter 207 Not So Foolproof
Yara’s palms curled into fists as shock replaced the smile on her face.
When she snapped back to her senses, she looked at her agent in disbelief. “What’s going on, Ms. Mona? Didn’t you say I’ll be the spokesperson?”
Mona wasn’t looking any better, too. Her eyes appeared as though it was about to pop out of her skull. “I… I don’t know.”
As tears streamed down her cheeks, Yara ran back into her dressing room.
Mona followed right behind. When she entered the room, she quickly shut the door so no one could see Yara’s tantrum.
“Who the hell is Wendy Xander?” she spat through clenched teeth.
“She must be a newbie,” Mona answered. “I’ve never heard her name in the industry before.”
“A newbie without any work under her name dares to steal my place as the spokesperson?” Yara swept her arm across the table and threw all her makeup on the floor before glaring at Mona with boiling hatred. “I told you I can’t play the piano, but you insisted I do! You told me it was a foolproof plan! It’s not so foolproof now, is it?”
Mona was speechless.
“I embarrassed myself in front of everyone! How am I supposed to show my face in public again?” Yara, in her anger, picked up her makeup mirror and threw it at her assistant.
Jeanne tried to dodge when she realized a mirror was heading right for her, but she was too slow. It broke into pieces when it hit her shoulder. “Ouch!”
“What’s with that look?” Yara held her tears back as she pinched her assistant’s chin. “You don’t like it? I’ll have you know, the only reason I allowed you to become my assistant was that you’re obedient! If you look at me like that again, I’ll make sure you won’t be able to stay in Dellmoor!”
Jeanne was so terrified by Yara’s bipolarity that she had trouble breathing.
Even Mona was shocked by how the woman was acting. She was usually a good speaker, but she found herself unable to muster any word at all.
