My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 490

Meanwhile, the same policewoman appeared again with a phone in her hand this time as she showed the videos to Ning Ran.

“See this? You’re now the most hated celebrity in the city. Even the brand you endorsed is affected because of you. Nobody is going to hire you anymore when you get out.”

Ning Ran stayed silent. How did this happen? I just signed the contract with Beauty Cosmetics not long ago. This company is under Nanshi Corporation so does that mean their interest is affected because of me? It must be stressful for Nan Chen. Sh*t. I caused him trouble again.

“Why aren’t you saying anything? Don’t tell me you’re still hoping for Nan Chen to come and rescue you? Please. You’re nothing but a sacrificial lamb to the Nan family. They’re busy protecting themselves now. What makes you think they have time to think of you?” the policewoman mocked.

Ning Ran was losing hope now for she had been there for some time now. If Nan Chen truly wanted to bail her out, he would have already done so. But he had not appeared even until now.

Has he given up on me? Maybe the problem is too serious that he has to sacrifice me to protect himself. That’s normal, I guess.

After all, no matter how popular Ning Ran was, she was just another celebrity of Star Entertainment in the eyes of those who thought celebrities were nothing special.

Celebrities were only a tool for entertainment and companies would not hesitate to sacrifice them for their own benefits.

I thought Nan Chen was different but it seems like I was wrong. He’s handsome and rich. I guess it’s easy for him to replace me with some other woman. I’m too naive.

The policewoman was secretly overjoyed when she noticed Ning Ran’s solemn expression. I finally knocked some sense into her.

“This is how the rich always behaves. Don’t take it to your heart. Though the Nan family sacrificed you, you’re pretty and talented. I believe it’ll be easy for you to relocate and find a new boss. It doesn’t matter who your boss is because I know you’ll be successful no matter what, so you have to be wise enough not to let anything happen to you in here.”

How sweet. She even gave me advice.

“If I say that, will you let me go?”

“Of course. I’m a woman of my words. I already told you the reason very clearly that day. Don’t make me repeat it,” replied the policewoman.

“I don’t think you have that power, though. It’s not like I don’t believe you but releasing me is a huge matter, and only those who have higher positions can do that. I don’t know who you are because you always have a mask on, and I’d be dumb if I were to believe you blindly.”

“If I were to smear Nan Chen, you have to convince me that there’s someone who can keep me safe once the deal is done. Otherwise, people will kill me very easily. I’d rather die here instead,” said Ning Ran calmly even though she was feeling the exact opposite on the inside.

The policewoman was infuriated by Ning Ran’s words. “I told you I have the power to decide whether to release you or not. Why won’t you believe me? What the hell do you want?”

“I want to meet your boss. That person is the one who can have a say in this,” requested Ning Ran.

“Mr. Huang is a Police Commissioner. He’s not someone you can meet just because you say so-” the policewoman suddenly shut her mouth upon realizing what she just said.

“So his surname is Huang. Is he the Commissioner himself or the Deputy?” Ning Ran tried to pry more answers from her.

“Cut the nonsense. I didn’t say that.” Though the policewoman was wearing a mask, the panic in her eyes was still noticeable.

“If someone were to get me out, it makes sense for them to be at least a Deputy Commissioner. Only then will I be at ease. I want to meet him. If he can guarantee my safety once I’m outside, then I’ll agree to join hands with you to take down Nan Chen.”
