Elijah didn't call Austin to inform him of it, and Suny didn't know Shirley had asked Elijah for help.
During dinner time, Alicia texted her on WhatsApp. She told Suny how many times Shirley's agent had called Joan, how much sweet words she had said to Joan, and how she had played tough to Joan when she found sweet words didn't work.
Alicia recorded besides Joan and sent the recording to Suny. Suny turned the recording into scripts and couldn't help raising her eyebrows after she read it.
Shirley's agent was just too arrogant!
Austin had cut the beef steak for her and passed it to her. He asked when he found she was deep in thoughts, "What are you thinking?"
Suny showed her phone to Austin and said, "I had lunch with Alicia today and we came across an artist from the show we had filmed. She happened to be one of Elijah's artists."
"Shirley was dining with Gary, the second young master from New Asia Real Estate. We saw it and she reminded us before she left, saying that we shouldn't gossip about it. But they got photographed by the paparazzi and became a trending topic in the afternoon."
Austin went through the chatting records between Suny and Alicia. He frowned lightly, "I'll talk to Elijah."
"No need!"
Suny smiled as she took her phone back. "It'll be fine as long as we don't cater to her."
She wanted to see how long Shirley could keep struggling.
Austin knew she had her own mind and he didn't contact Elijah.
After dinner, they returned to the villa. When they turned the car into the doorway of the villa, they found someone standing at the gate of the villa.
It was nobody else but Grace, who had contacted Suny not long ago.
"It's Grace." Suny raised her eyebrows and turned her head to look at Austin.
"I am getting off. Wait for me here." Austin looked a bit indifferent.
"OK."
Suny nodded, unbuckled the seat belt, and watched Austin pull the door open to get off and walk towards Grace.
In fact, Grace didn't want to wait for Austin here, but she just couldn't go for Austin in KLOC, not to mention Suny. She had nearly been kicked out when she went for Suny last time.
But, more than half a month had passed by in a blink, and Kasper's case would be brought to court soon.
Grace had contacted Carl, but she held back a trick. She claimed that she had something on Austin and wanted Carl to cooperate with her.
However, Carl was so tactful. He made her tell what she had on Austin first before they sat down to discuss the following matters.
Grace had made Maddox marry her at that time regardless of his social status. She was really somebody!
She understood that she must hold the cards in her hand. Otherwise, she couldn't work with Carl or save Kasper.
Grace thought it over and over again, and she decided to talk with Austin one more time.
Austin had been staying in Suny's villa recently. It was the best choice to wait for him here.
"What is it?" Austin went out of the car and walked toward Grace.
Austin still looked indifferent and cold in the dim street light.
Grace glanced at him, "Austin, I think you've known that I went for Ms. Suny last time. And I didn't mean to upset you. I just had no other choice. I've been treating you like my own son. Can you please save Kasper for the sake of it?"
"Don't worry. I swear I won't tell anyone that you are not originally from the Johnson Family. I promise that I'll leave you and Ms. Suny alone in the future if you help me this time. Only you, Ms. Suny, and I know the secret. No one else in the world will know it if I keep my mouth shut."
"Haven't you contacted Carl? Why? You didn't agree with each other?" Austin looked at her.
Austin just guessed it right. Grace froze, "Are you going to help me or not, Austin?"
"I think Suny has made her clear." Austin sneered.
Grace got it immediately.
Her face went pale in a flash, "You! Aren't you afraid that I'll tell Carl about your real identity?"
"As you wish!"
Austin paused, "But if you come to disturb Suny again, I won't go easy on you. Remember this! Besides the son Kasper, you still have a daughter, Tina."
