The Divorced Billionaire Heiress novel Chapter 2565

After Ivan found out about Lara, he was obliged to help.

That was because it was not all smooth sailing when Ivan first started out in the entertainment industry. Back then, he wanted to bribe the director so that he could be the male lead in a TV show, but the original female lead resigned decisively when she heard that Ivan was the male lead.

This incident hurt Ivan’s dignity.

Back then, when Lara found out about Ivan, she took the initiative to ask the director for the female lead role, which saved Ivan from embarrassment.

Since then, the two became close friends.

Thus, Ivan came forward to help when Lara was bullied.

That was why he was hostile toward Selena, who bullied Lara.

Ivan only took the initiative to talk to Selena and praised her just now because he wanted to get to know her. Why was she such a snob?

Lara quickly stepped forward and grabbed Ivan’s arm.

“Ivan, calm down. You’ll scare Ms. Nelson.”

“What are you afraid of? Will she dare to treat me the way she treats you? Even if Eric is here, he won’t go against the Caldwell family just to please her. She only dares to bully you because you don’t have a backer. Lara, don’t be afraid. If she doesn’t let you go this time, I will start my own company and let you be the female lead. I’ll make up for all the resources that Eric took from you.”

Lara looked at Ivan gratefully and choked up slightly.

“Thank you, Ivan.”

Before Ivan could comfort her, Selena could not help but laugh.

“If I had known this was your purpose, I would’ve cooperated with you. You just want a rich fool to back you up, right? You even acted for this rich fool. Lara, it’s a pity that you didn’t win the Best Actress Award. Your purpose isn’t to apologize, but to find a successor, right?”

Selena spoke too bluntly, which hit the nail on its head.

Lara’s face turned pale with a bit of embarrassment and grievance. She looked like she was on the verge of crying.

Ivan understood what Selena was saying, but he did not believe in her nonsense.

“Don’t try to sow discord between us. I can tell that Eric must have been befuddled because of you. At first, I didn’t want to tell you for fear of hurting your feelings.novelebook.com Don’t you know why Eric came here today?”

Ivan had a smug look on his face.

The mockery in his eyes was undisguised.

Ivan wished he could peel off Selena’s skin little by little so that he could see her panic and fear. Would she still be so stubborn then?

Lara, who was beside him, could not help but step forward and frown.

“Stop talking. It’ll hurt Ms. Nelson’s feelings.”

Lara’s pretentious behavior was annoying and ridiculous.

Selena did not know how such a middle-aged actress could be such a fake b*tch.

Perhaps Lara was the original fake b*tch.

Lara and Ivan pushed their narrative.

Ivan was unreconciled when Lara said that, so he wanted to see Selena’s downfall.

“Hurt her feelings? It’s about time she knows that she’s not the best person out there. Ms. Nelson, you shouldn’t take a man’s word so sincerely. Don’t you know that Eric is just playing with you? The purpose of today’s banquet is to set up my sister with Eric.”

Seeing Selena’s slightly frozen mouth, Ivan became even more smug.

“By the way, don’t you know who my sister is? You should have heard of Taylor Caldwell, the heiress of CK Corporation. Her net worth is at the top of the Forbes list. A sl*t like you who asks for money after you sleep with Eric certainly can’t compare to her. So, I suggest that you know your place. novelebook.comDon’t think that you have all the power just because you’re with Eric. Eric is not a fool. Did you think Eric regretted Nicole leaving back then because of love? It’s only because he couldn’t stand the thought of losing the power that the Stanton family could bring him. Has he ever talked to you about marriage after dating you for so long? I doubt it. In the end, Eric will only marry a woman from a well-matched family, which is my sister, Taylor.”

The arrogance and smugness in Ivan’s eyes were obvious.
