Nina Sinclair was stunned.
She stared blankly at the reporter who had spoken, frozen in place like a statue.
"Impossible!"
Nina Sinclair snapped out of her daze, shaking her head frantically. "The company was fine just yesterday! How could it be bankrupt today?"
’Without any due process?’
Nina Sinclair was convinced Chloe Sinclair had paid these people to trick her.
"Do you people have any professional ethics? I told you not to come in, but you just had to barge in! I’m calling the police right now to have every last one of you arrested!"
With that, she went to unlock her phone.
But the moment she did, a low battery notification appeared.
She hadn’t charged it all night, and the battery was on its last legs.
Watching the screen go black a second later, Nina Sinclair’s mouth fell open, and she burst into tears.
The entertainment reporters, however, had no intention of letting Nina Sinclair off the hook. Seeing her sitting on the floor and sobbing her heart out, they signaled to the cameramen behind them to start snapping away furiously.
Hearing the incessant CLICK-CLICK-CLICK of cameras all around her, Nina Sinclair looked over, her eyes glistening with tears.
But the moment she looked up, a microphone was thrust forward, this time right up to her nose.
"Miss Nina, do you remember our question from before? Would you like to say something?"
"Are you aware that you are now 1.5 billion in debt?"
"What?!!"
Nina Sinclair had originally planned to just play dead and slip away when no one was looking, but she never expected to hear those words.
’One and a half billion in debt?’
Seeing that Nina Sinclair was clueless, the reporter had no choice but to explain, "In the last two days, your agency signed thirty-seven new contracts on your behalf. However, due to the negative press surrounding you, all of those companies have terminated their agreements with you at the earliest opportunity."
Nina Sinclair: ???
’How could she not have known about this?’
