Chapter 561 Intent On Attending
On the bright side, Sadie had done something that came as a pleasant surprise, for once.
That wretched woman was actually going to marry Nathan, a spoiled and debauched young man from the Higgins family.
What a truly unexpected turn of events.
Hailey huffed, her eyes glinting with malice.
After giving it some thought, she grabbed her spare phone and made a call.
If she wasn’t mistaken, Briley was currently filming something in Beversea.
The line rang a few times before it was finally picked up.
“Who is this? Do you realize how busy I am?” Briley snapped impatiently.
Hailey suppressed her disdain and tried to sound concerned. “It’s me, Hailey. I was just wondering if you’re aware that your
dear cousin–in–law is once again in the limelight. Apparently, she is now engaged to a member of the Higgins family. Not
only that, but I heard she’s also planning to collaborate with the Higgins Group.”
She paused to let her words sink in, then continued, “Once she returns from Beversea, her position will be even more
secure, and we might never have the chance to bring her down. After all, the Wall Group virtually controls Jazmah, and
she’s the one who calls the shots in the company.”
Briley pondered this in silence.
She had heard rumors from the film crew that said as much, but she had always dismissed them as jokes or groundless
narratives.
“What are you trying to say?”
“I think we should do something as soon as possible,” Hailey suggested.
“To make sure Sadie never returns to Jazmah?” Briley asked.
Hailey’s lips curled into a cunning smile as she thought Briley was truly a fool among fools.
She chuckled lightly, her tone shifting into a casual one. “Oh, never mind, Briley. I guess I’m just venting a bit. After all, the Higgins family rules over Beversea. What can we do, really? Well, anyway. I have something else to do. Let’s talk again
some other time.”
With that, Hailey hung up the phone.
She knew that it was enough to tip Briley on what was happening. That girl wouldn’t miss a single opportunity to destroy her sworn enemy.

And the cherry on top? Even if Briley messed things up, no one would be able to link Briley’s actions to her.
Sure enough, in a lounge of the Beversea Film Base, Briley was stewing over the new information she had just received.
The Higgins family? Who did they think they were?
Did they think they could compete with her family?
She clicked her tongue in frustration, mentally berating Hailey for being useless. Why was Hailey always dancing around the problem instead of taking immediate action?
Unlike Hailey, she was fearless. She was a Wall, after all.
If she had her way, Sadie would have been dealt with ages ago!
The more Briley thought about it, the more excited she got.
She jumped to her feet, grabbed her designer handbag,
made to leave the set.
Just then, a young girl from the logistics team entered the room with a cup of water.
When she saw that Briley was going somewhere, she asked cautiously, “Are you leaving, Miss Wall? But you still have
scenes to film on today’s schedule.”
Briley was already irritate as it was, and the girl’s words only annoyed her further.
They should be thankful she had even graced this shabby set and crew with her presence in the first place; now, one of
them dared to block her path?
Without any warning, Briley kicked the girl in the shin with her sharp stiletto. “Get lost! How dare you get in my way? Just
find a stand–in to shoot the scenes. What’s the big deal? If you can’t even handle such a small task, what’s the use of
having you here?”
The girl stumbled, dropping the cup and spilling water everywhere.
Her eyes turned red with unshed tears, but she was too frightened to openly weep. She simply shrank back while clutching her leg.
Briley strutted to the door without sparing her another glance.
The other crew members in the lounge kept their heads down, not daring to make a sound.
Only a fool would think to provoke the spoiled princess, especially when she was in such a state.
Briley walked straight to the van waiting outside the set.
Leonard quickly stepped forward and opened the door for her.
She climbed in and tossed her bag to the side. “Leonard, make some arrangements. Jarrett Higgins is getting married in two days, right? I want to attend his wedding.”
Leonard glanced at the rearview mirror, and was met with Briley’s twisted expression. Her eyes were burning with ill
intent.
“Alright, Miss Wall,” he replied respectfully. “I’ll take care of it right away.”
Leonard agreed, but his fingers were furiously typing a message under the steering wheel. He sent it before starting the engine. “Samuel, Briley plans to attend Jarrett’s wedding. Her purpose is unclear. Proceed with caution.”

After Sadie returned to her hotel room, she kicked off her high heels and massaged her temples.
After a while, her phone beeped with a new message from Nathan.
“Dinner tonight? I have something to discuss.”
Sadie’s brows furrowed.
Wasn’t he supposed to be busy with the handover at Higgins Group today?
How could he even find the time to have dinner with her?
As puzzled as she was, Sadie didn’t really care much about the invitation, so she didn’t reply right away.
Then her phone rang, and this time, it was Samuel calling.
