Winona’s face was a mask of pure rage. “You can play innocent all you want, but who else could it be? I had a show to film today. We have one run–in and suddenly the station calls to tell me I’m dropped? Don’t tell me that’s a coincidence. Things don’t just happen like that.”
Her shrill voice was drawing a crowd. People were already huddling together, whispering as they watched the fallout.
“What was Winona thinking, picking a fight with someone like her?” one staffer muttered. “She’s always been arrogant, but Lilian? She really overplayed her hand. Just because she has one hit show doesn’t mean she can touch the top of the food chain.”
“I heard she tried to kick Lilian out of her own dressing room,” another added.
“Winona used to be with Skyreach. She probably pissed Lilian off years ago. She finally managed to crawl her way up after leaving, and now she’s gone and blown it all because she couldn’t keep her ego in check.”
“Yeah, she’s done. Last time, she got into it with some rookie over a vanity mirror and literally threw the girl’s clothes and makeup kit into the hallway. Looks like she finally picked a fight with someone who can actually ruin her.”
Lilian frowned, her eyes turning ice cold. “If you think I’m the reason your career is falling apart, prove it. Otherwise, I’ll see you in court for slander. I’m not going to let you drag my name through the dirt just because you’re having a bad day.”
She was genuinely annoyed. She hadn’t even bothered to look into Winona’s schedule yet, and she didn’t appreciate being blamed for the woman’s own stupidity.
“Winona! What are you doing? Get over here, the agency wants you back right now!” a sharp male voice called out.
“No!” Winona snapped, her eyes fixed on Lilian. “You might have money and power, Lilian, but you can’t just bully people like this. I apologized! What more do you want? Fine, I shouldn’t have tried to take your room, but getting me blacklisted from the show? That’s low.”
Peter stepped in, looking like he was about to have a heart attack. “Winona, shut up! This was the station’s call. Don’t go pinning this on Ms. Lilian.”
He turned to Lilian with a pathetic, fawning smile. “Ms. Lilian, I am so sorry. She’s just emotional. Please don’t take it personally.”
He grabbed Winona’s arm, trying to haul her away. “We’re leaving. Stop making a scene.

Winona shoved him off. “I’m not going anywhere! Not until she gives me an explanation!”
“Oh? And what kind of explanation do you want from my fiancée?”
The voice was deep, raspy, and carried a chilling weight.
Everyone turned toward the sound.
A tall, commanding figure approached, flanked by a small army of staff. He was dressed in a black shirt and matching trousers. It looked simple, but the cat’s eye cufflinks and the cold gleam of his watch signaled a level of wealth that most people couldn’t even dream of. He moved with the effortless grace of a king, his stunning face completely devoid of emotion.
“Holy shit, it’s the CEO of Empire Group,” a girl whispered. “That’s the first time I’ve seen him in person. He’s incredible. A colleague interviewed him at his estate once and I was jealous for weeks.”
“He’s the ultimate prize. I get why every woman in the city is obsessed with him. If I were a girl, I’d be chasing him too.”
“Look at the station manager. He’s practically groveling. That’s what real power looks like.”
“Winona really picked the wrong person to mess with this time. Threatening his fiancée right to her face? She didn’t just piss off Skyreach. She just made an enemy of Empire Group. She’s dead in this industry.”
