Chapter 63 Threats

"Of course, if you don't know how to behave, don't blame me!" Holly declared with a flick of her nails. "I couldn't care less if this little studio goes bankrupt!"

The threat hung heavily in the air, and Ranita felt the weight of the situation.

"Miss Stuart, your words are harsh! Even though you're a new shareholder, you should only be on equal footing with Ranita. Taking her office and demanding her to kneel? Who do you think you are?"

"I'm addressing Ranita, and I see no reason for your interruption," Holly replied coldly, casting a frigid gaze at Olivia. "You're fired!"

"I... I'm Ranita's assistant, not yours. You have no authority to fire me!" Olivia retorted.

Olivia had been by Ranita's side for a long time and was exceptionally skilled at her job. Ranita, naturally, came to her defense. "Holly, Olivia is my personal hire, and I pay her salary. You have no right to fire her!"

Holly was taken aback momentarily but quickly regained her composure. "Fine! Are your people off-limits, then?"

Ranita felt a rising sense of dread. Holly's deliberate provocations filled her with anxiety. The ongoing project was already an exhausting ordeal, and with daily studio troubles, Ranita felt overwhelmed.

After venting her frustrations, Holly departed triumphantly, leaving a tense atmosphere behind.

"Oh, and by the way..." Holly paused as she reached the door, turning back toward Ranita with an air of arrogance. "Do you know what my brother is doing now?"

"He's helping Shannon choose a dress! Tomorrow night at Boulderland Mansion, there's a welcome party for Shannon, and my brother truly cares for her."
