The man sighed.
“Luckily, I sent someone to watch you, or you'll be ruined tonight.”
The woman in his arms began shaking violently upon hearing his words.
“D*mn it!”
Sylvester slapped himself in the face. “I shouldn't have said that. Don't be afraid. They're not coming back ever again.”
Rainie started bawling her eyes out in Sylvester's arms. Sylvester did not say anything else, for he knew how traumatic it would be for someone to experience something like that, so he allowed the woman to vent her emotions.
After bringing Rainie out of the tunnel, he instructed his men, “Beat those two b*stards to a pulp and ask them who sent them. I want to know who dares to touch my woman.”
“Yes, sir.”
Then, Sylvester carried Rainie back to the parking lot.
Before they had walked far, Rainie whispered, “It must be Rose. It must be her. She hates me for snatching the Best Actress award and a role from her. She must've wanted to ruin my reputation. That's why she ordered those two men to attack me.”
Sylvester arched his brows as anger glimmered in his eyes.
She drugged Rainie once, and now she even sent those men to ambush her. Fine! I've got many ways to torture her.
“Don't worry. I'll never let her off the hook.”
After staying in the car for twenty minutes, a bodyguard in black paced over and knocked on the window.
“Mr. Hollett, they said it's Rose who wanted to teach Ms. Yeanisky a lesson.”
Sylvester looked at Rainie, who was still trembling in fear beside him. He hesitated momentarily and got out of the car to talk to the bodyguard.
After the two of them walked further away from the car, Sylvester said, “Then they must know where Rose is hiding now.”
“Yes. They do. She's in a hotel in the east side of the city.”
The man sighed.
“Luckily, I sent someone to watch you, or you'll be ruined tonight.”
“Good. Since she sent two men to violate Rainie, I'll send her twenty. Make sure they treat her well. After that, make sure to publicize this matter and let everyone know about her excellent performance.”
“Yes, sir.”
After giving the order, Sylvester went back into the car.
“Sylvester... could you send me to Angie's?”
Angie was Rainie's manager, so it should be safe for Rainie to go to her, but Sylvester was still worried.
“But your ankle's hurt. How about you go over to my place?”
Rainie wanted to turn down his offer, but when she saw how concerned Sylvester was, she felt assured and changed her mind. “All right, then. Thanks.”
“Don't mention it.”
Sylvester was more than happy to have her at his place.
Meanwhile, the internet was taken by storm after someone claimed that Artemis was about to hold a press conference to officially announce his relationship with Zoey, the daughter of the Shurmer family.
At first, everyone was talking about Artemis' scandal with his sister-in-law, but when news about the press conference spread, the center of public attention changed.
Numerous comments emerged on the internet.
Whoa! Did he cut ties with Bailey?
I thought Armetis would give up his reputation for her, but in the end, he's turning his back on her.
Well, all men are the same. They're worse than animals.
Poor Bailey. She got ditched just like that.
I'm looking forward to the press conference. I wonder how Artemis will publicize his relationship with Zoey.
