The Contracted Ever After (Cordelia and Ronan) novel Chapter 325

"Where?" Downstairs, in Ronan's car.

He was on the phone with Deanna. His deep and stern voice gave Deanna a start.

"Me? I'm about to go for an advertisement shoot."

"Forget about the ad. I've canceled it for you. From now on, Lumos Enterprises won't cooperate with your comeback. I'll have the PR Department retract all the articles."

"Ronan?" Deanna thought. Cordelia must have been sweet-talking him and spinning him stories.

Had she lost her children? Why else would Ronan be so angry? Deanna never imagined that Cordelia held such weight in Ronan's heart.

"What have you been saying to her?" Ronan interrogated Deanna.

"I... but I was just stating the facts."

"Facts? Did you deliver them? Do you even have the brains for that?" Ronan questioned rudely.

"I..." Being mocked by Ronan and referred to as dumb, made Deanna feel somewhat humiliated. "Remember when we used to..."

"Let the past be the past. If you dare do it again, your fate will be much worse than being betrayed by Samantha." With that, Ronan ended the call.

Deanna tried to call him back, but his line was busy.

He was on the phone with Mr. Robert from the PR Department, instructing him to retract all articles within five minutes. He ordered to notify all collaborating media outlets to remove all materials related to Deanna, leaving her vulnerable to attacks.

Originally, he wanted to use Deanna as a target for Samantha to continue attacking, but now... never mind.

...

After taking her medication, Cordelia felt much calmer. She quietly sat in the living room reading.

Soon, Brooklyn's Messenger arrived. [Cordelia, what have you been whispering in Mr. Evans' ear? He's canceled Deanna's comeback plan, retracted all articles, pulled all media content, and even canceled all future events. Given this pace, Deanna's downfall is imminent.]
