Hung Up
Sophie stood there silently, an icy smirk playing on her lips. Did she just say that Ysabelle got hurt because of an oversight? How could she say that? I can’t believe she’s shameless enough to show up
When the paparazzi spotted Sophie, they quickly gathered around her.
“How is Ms. Lombard doing?”
“Is Ms. Lombard severely injured? Will it affect her recent developments?”
here.
Despite the barrage of questions from the paparazzi, Sophie silenced them all instantly with a single glance.
“Ms. Miller, Ysabelle is presently taking some much-needed rest due to her injury. If you have any inquiries, kindly direct them to TS Entertainment’s lawyer.”
Right then, Sean showed up.
He pulled out his name card and gave it to Elena.
“I’m TS Entertainment’s lawyer, Sean Burton.”
The paparazzi were so taken aback that they promptly forgot to snap any photos. None of them had anticipated Sean to be the lawyer representing TS Entertainment. After all, he was renowned for his impeccable track record in the legal profession.
Elena’s face paled. She had been with Lucas long enough to hear about Sean’s reputation.
Given his frequent involvement in high-profile cases, nobody had expected that he would take charge of Ysabelle’s case this time.
“I’ll leave this to you. I will accompany Ysabelle as her emotions are currently unstable.” Sophie’s voice was so loud that the paparazzi could hear her clearly.
Elena clenched her fists.
She must’ve said that on purpose! She’s the third daughter of the Tanner family, the CEO of TS Entertainment- undeniably beautiful, yet seemingly devoid of compassion.
“You were the one who caused harm to Ysabelle, right? Don’t worry. You’ll receive the court summons soon,” Sean said, his voice sounding melodious. However, an ominous undertone lingered, adding a menacing quality to his words.
Elena’s assistant, Stella, panicked instantly, for Sean looked really scary.
“Mr. Burton, how are you related to TS Entertainment? Why did you accept this case?”
Sean was unwilling to answer any questions and left without saying anything. He had never liked talking to the media.
Having heard about his reputation, no one dared to provoke him.
While Stella might have accumulated considerable experience working for Elena over the years, their opponent this time was Sean, a formidable force to reckon with.
“Ms. Miller, what should we do? You have to help me. This was your”
Elena gave her a slap that stopped her short.
“What is wrong with you? You’ve been working for me for so long. I can’t believe you did this behind my back. Stella, this is completely unacceptable!”
Stella stared at Elena incredulously.
“Ms. Miller, what are you talking about? Didn’t you tell me to do that? Are you putting the blame on me now?”
She’s guilty of intentional assault.
Elena’s anger was palpable. “Stop spouting nonsense. Why on earth would I instruct you to do such a thing?”
If she continues talking nonsense, I’ll make sure she pays the price.
The paparazzi promptly understood what was going on. Stella wouldn’t have done that without Elena’s order, but Elena was pinning the blame on her.
Clearly, Stella was going to take the fall for Elena.
Ysabelle’s fans had also arrived after they learned about the incident. Filled with rage, they vented their anger by hurling the items they were holding at both Elena and Stella.
A chaos descended.
Ever since her debut, Elena had always enjoyed popularity and appeared before the public in fashionable attire. This was the first instance she had been subjected to such treatment.
