"Alright, I'll shut up." Phil held back his laughter and coaxed Anya.
Anya heard Phil's playful tone, which irritated her so much that she pulled over the quilt to sleep with her head covered, in no mood to go on reading.
She really wanted to let the females fascinated by Phil see the dark side of him and maybe their fantasies about him would be shattered.
Phil slept outside on the sofa all night. Although he felt uncomfortable sleeping on the sofa, he felt very pleased within himself.
Anya woke up by WhatsApp's prompt tone in the morning. She fumbled for her phone and found it was a message from Nina.
Nina, "Why did Gracie, that bitch, return to Chiobar a few days ago? I heard from Sherlyn that Gracie signed with an agency. It seemed that she planned to start a career in showbiz."
"I'm not sure if you're clear about this. You said that they didn't dare return home because of Phil, didn't you?"
Probably considering that Anya was still sleeping, Nina didn't say anything more.
When Anya saw the message, she was a bit stunned. Gracie's family was indeed scared of Phil, so they had been living abroad over these years.
When Lorie got into a car crash, Anya wanted to kill Morgan, Luna, and Gracie, but was stopped by Phil.
Later, they were all driven abroad by Phil, and Anya hated Phil for a long time because of this.
Although Phil did not explain anything, later Anya gradually understood the reason why Phil did so. He wanted to protect her by stopping her from doing something crazy.
Also, he probably did not want to let that shameless family of three live in Riverside City or show up before her from time to time to give her trouble, so he just drove them out of the country.
Out of Anya's expectations, that family of three now returned home.
Did Phil relent?
If so, what was his purpose?
Thinking of this, she hurriedly replied to Nina, "I haven't heard about this."
Nina made a video call, "I just learned about it and I'd like to ask if you need me to deal with that bitch. I have plenty of opportunities to punish her underhand."
Nina was clear about what to love or hate. Anya did believe that she had many ways to torment Gracie. Moreover, based on Nina's status and seniority in showbiz, she could deal with a rookie like Gracie with ease.
However, Anya smiled and rejected Nina's proposal, "No, no need to dirty your hands because of such a shameless person."
"It's not a big deal for me." Nina proudly said, "I love dealing with such villains the most. I can tear them to pieces."
Then she added in contempt, "The threshold for being an entertainer was getting lower and lower these days. Literally, even a random guy can work in showbiz and get a piece of the pie. What strengths does Gracie have? How come agencies want to sign her?"
"She's plain-looking and tacky with a poor body image. Also, she's not a professional actress. Well... I can't figure out why."
Nina's words of degrading Gracie brought a smile to Anya's face.
Actually, Gracie was not as bad as what Nina described. She was very tall with a good body shape. She had been working as a model before and had studied ballet and music, so it was suitable for her to enter the entertainment industry.
Of course, compared with Nina, a stunningly beautiful actress, Gracie was really nobody.
She heard that Gracie had planned to enter showbiz before. If she hadn't been driven out of the country by Phil, she should have a good career development there.
In the past few years, Anya heard that Gracie had been working hard on this abroad as well, but it was harder for Gracie to get recognized since she was from Chiobar, so she could only be a makeup and dressing blogger, or to be more exact, a social media star.
