Doris was utterly speechless, completely taken aback by Athena’s impressive moves. It was like watching a scene from a high-octane action movie. Athena’s skills put Anna’s bodyguards to shame.
In her years managing talent, Doris had never encountered one of her artists who could fight like that.
After kicking Anna, Athena swiftly dealt with the two bodyguards who tried to restrain her. She twisted around them in a bizarre yet effective maneuver, forcing them both to their knees.
Anna got back on her feet, intending to retaliate against Athena, but seeing her take down two bodyguards left Anna pale and trembling.
“You brute! Just you wait, the boss won’t let you get away with this!”
Anna, abandoning any pretense of acting, rushed back to the headquarters of WAJA Media. She burst into Jacob’s office, tears streaming down her face, showing him her swollen cheek.
“Boss, you told me to try and charm Tyler, but look at my face now! How am I supposed to do that? That witch Athena not only hit me but also took down the two bodyguards you assigned to me.”
Jacob frowned, thinking Anna must be exaggerating. Athena didn’t look like the type who could overpower two bodyguards.
But Anna was adamant, leaving Jacob no choice but to believe her. He promptly called Athena.
Back on set, Athena noticed the wary glances from the crew, as if they feared she might lash out at any moment. Even Doris seemed uneasy, though her worry quickly turned to concern.
Anna had Jacob, their boss, in her corner. If she complained to him, Athena might end up blacklisted.
“Athena, don’t panic. Try calling Tyler. See if he’ll stand up for you. Otherwise, when you face the boss, he might not go easy on you.”
The boss had tried to make unwelcome advances before, and now with Anna stirring the pot, things could get even worse for Athena.
Athena looked distressed, staring at her shattered phone. “I didn’t back up his number. I have no way to contact him now.”
Even if she could reach him, there was no guarantee Tyler would help. She just wanted to talk to him.

The readers' comments on the novel: Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja)
Author, would you story about Ryan settling down and another story on Eric regaining his body and memories back from Patrick, and Eric also settling down as I find it so disheartening for him to have gone through what he went through at the research institute, and I'll like for him to get his "golden boy" life back though, not at the detriment of Ian....
When will the author update to finish Beck's story? What about Dylan and Tyler's love lives? Also, I'll like the author to write on Wilma and Elvis ending up together as she was quite persistent in pursuing him. And Shawn's story, Cornelia Sullivan and Omar Casson. Also, a little write-up on Jeff (Ian's assistant) love life, too. Thanks, author for updating....
