Hudson saw that Xylia looked upset, so he frowned and walked over to her. “What happened?”

The staff did not know Hudson. However, upon seeing Hudson arrive with Greg, they assumed he was a friend of their boss.

When they saw Hudson walk straight up to Xylia, they knew that their relationship was anything but ordinary.

The staff member felt uncertain, wondering, ‘Could it be that this woman is also a friend of Mr. Dawson?”

All of those people turned pale.

Xylia spoke in a subdued tone, “It’s nothing. I just ran into someone annoying, that’s all.”

Under ordinary circumstances, Xylia rarely singled someone out with personal feelings in front of so many people.

However, she was in a bad mood today.

Moreover, her longstanding resentment toward Tessa ran deep. She truly did not wish to tolerate her any longer.

When Xylia openly described Tessa as annoying. Tessa felt completely embarrassed.

Then, she noticed that Greg was present, and Alex from the production team also walked over, looking puzzled.

Tessa promptly adopted a resolute stance, determined not to be suppressed by Xylia. “Mr. Dawson, not only did this woman bump into me without apologizing, but she also criticized my appearance in public. How could you allow someone like her into the lounge?”

In Tessa’s view, there was a distinction between the owner of this brand and the owner of a major brand.

She previously served as an ambassador for major fashion brands; now, by lowering herself to participate in such a small–scale commercial event, the organizer ought to accord her the highest level of respect.

Therefore, she was waiting for Greg to drive Xylia out.

Greg could not simply sit by and do nothing.

He walked over, preparing to mediate the conflict between the two troublemakers.

Before he could speak, Tessa, as if she knew what he was about to say, immediately spoke up. “If you don’t make her leave now, I won’t go on stage.

Her voice was cold, yet carried a hint of willfulness and disdain.

Greg furrowed his brow.

With so many employees present, if he didn’t respond to Tessa’s threat, he would risk losing his authority within the company.

He said calmly, “Ms. Schultz, we have signed a contract. I am afraid this kind of attitude may not be ideal, don’t you think?”

Tessa had not expected Greg to say this.

Whispers could be heard nearby. “The woman who refused to apologize seems to be Mr. Dawson’s friend. Tessa Schultz used the incident of going on stage to threaten Mr. Dawson in front of so many people. Isn’t this obviously asking for trouble?”

Another one said, “Tessa Schultz wasn’t injured, so what’s the point of holding on to this?”

Someone else nodded. “Exactly. She’s about to go on stage, but she just had to make such a fuss and delay our

work.”

That group of employees overwhelmingly criticized her.

Tessa felt very embarrassed and indignant.

Then, she saw that Alex had already walked over.

She thought that if Alex heard such evaluations from these people, she would be unable to take on the role of the female lead.

Therefore, Tessa could not lose this round.

She said indignantly, “We did sign a contract, but she collided with me, and my arm still hurts. This has caused me serious psychological trauma. It’s not wrong for me to ask her to apologize, right?”

She loudly denounced, “Mr. Dawson, please don’t side with your friend Xylia just because she’s your friend and let her bully me. My requests are reasonable–am I really in the wrong?”

However, suddenly a cold laugh rang out from within the crowd.

Tessa looked in the same direction and saw only a radiant face.

The woman’s tone was disdainful. “After being lightly bumped, you ended up with both arm pain and severe psychological trauma. Are you a porcelain doll, Ms. Schultz?”

Xylia looked over, somewhat pleasantly surprised.

The woman was the female celebrity she was just searching for–the one Leon had a crush on.

Although Xylia did not clearly see her face in the restaurant last time, she would never forget this voice.

This time, she finally saw the celebrity’s face clearly.

It was indeed a bright and captivating face.

Her skin was exceptionally fair, her facial features were refined, and her nose bridge was prominent. Her fox- like eyes were strikingly captivating, and even her figure was impeccable.

She possessed an innate sense of solitary pride; merely standing there, she resembled a beautiful flower defying the winter snow–peerlessly independent, standing alone in the world.

When Alex saw Mia Monroe, his eyes lit up instantly.

Tessa glanced at Mia, whom she did not recognize. Mia was wearing makeup and branded clothing, indicating that she was also likely one of the artists invited to today’s event.

However, she appeared to be an obscure celebrity, which made Tessa look down on her even more.

Tessa sneered, “Who are you? Whether I am injured or have suffered emotional trauma is not for you to deny on my behalf.”

Mia had no intention of standing out, but Tessa’s overbearing manner made it impossible for her to like

Tessa.

Since she had already spoken out to uphold justice, she no longer hid behind the crowd.

She stepped out and stood a short distance in front of Tessa, giving her a quick once–over. “I know you.”

Tessa knew that her public profile was still relatively high, and she felt a bit proud when she heard Mia say

this.

Tessa arrogantly replied, “However, I do not know you.”

Mia, in fact, was not concerned by Tessa’s attempt to shut her down with words.

She curved her lips into a smile, gentle and soft. “Previously, I saw reports in entertainment news about your past with Ms. Xylia Schultz. You two are sisters, right? However, it seems you falsely accused her of a hit–and- run, and later, you were arrested, correct?”

After Mia finished speaking, Tessa’s expression darkened.

She had those scandals removed earlier on.

She couldn’t help but wonder, ‘Since people usually care about the news that’s trending, not the one in the past, why, then, does this woman before me know about this matter?”
