Chapter 2067
Flint spoke up again, "That's right. Besides, if things don’t work out you can start focusing on minding the family business.”
Caprice was humored by this and supplied a smiley face.
Isabel chuckled to herself and replied, "Just you wait, fatty Flint. I'll make sure you get punished the next time we meet."
Flint was a good sport as usual. "Oooh, scary, I'm out of here."
Isabel made sure to send the occasional text to Amanda, Carla, Triss, and Ramona during her conversation with her family.
Amanda was relieved after seeing her reply, and she told Isabel, "Make sure you stay home and rest up over these next two days. Don’t go anywhere. I’ll talk to Isabella's manager."
She made it sound like they were going to negotiate, but it was quite clear that she was going to ask for mercy, which was something that Isabel would never do. She immediately objected, "Amanda, don't ask for anything from them."
Amanda was conflicted. "But if I don’t talk to them, they're going to burn you to the ground."
Isabel was surprisingly nonchalant about this. "It's fine.
That’s not going to be the end of the world or anything."
Amanda had to do a double-take before replying, "Isabel, it might not be a big deal to you, but it is for me. I still have my reputation to consider! I know you're very fearless, but you have to consider my position as well!"
Isabel assured her, "Don't worry. Even if I step away from the entertainment industry, you have my personal guarantee that your reputation as a gold-star celebrity agent will be completely unscathed. Maybe you'd end up even more famous."
This got her a sticker of a cartoon figure rolling its eyes back, followed by a message poking fun at her, "Isabel, you're not just a daredevil. You're pretty good at talking out of your butt as well."
Isabel rolled her eyes. She might not be the type to brag about her wealth, but she still came from an affluent family nonetheless. Did she not least give the impression of someone with an affluent status?
Triss and Ramona sent occasional messages to the as well. They claimed that they were going to seek justice for Isabel and post their version of the events online.
Isabel hastily stopped them. "No, it's alright. Don't get involved, please.”
They had no evidence that Isabella had done something to her dress beforehand, and there was nothing they could say that could possibly help her case. Even worse, they might get caught in the crossfire.
