The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 216

Chapter 216 

Mona was gasping for air as she could not breathe. “Calm down, Yara. Please calm down. Trust me. I had always had your best interest in mind...” 

She tried to take another breath and continued, “I really didn‘t expect the accident to happen, and I thought they‘d appoint you as their ambassador for sure...” 

Mona was taken aback by how strong Yara had become after gulping down a few glasses of wine. She was so terrified of Yara that she started trembling. 

“You have my best interest in mind?” Yara gave Mona a killer stare. “Do you know how hard I‘ve worked to get to where I am today? Because of this accident, I‘ve now become a laughing stock!‘ 

“Please, Yara. Stop. I can‘t breathe. Please. 

Yara ignored Mona‘s plea at first, but the moment her phone rang, she let go of her manager. 

The ring tone that Yara had set for the Bowers was like a wake–up call, and upon hearing that, she instantly backed off. 

Mona, who could now breathe, was relieved that the call saved her life. She almost thought she would die in Yara‘s hands. 

Yara took a glance at her screen and realized the caller was Kenneth. She immediately picked up the call. “Hello... 

She was all choked up and sounded aggrieved and vulnerable. She was not as aggressive as how she behaved when she was strangling Mona earlier. 

“How‘s your fever?” Kenneth was concerned about her. “You shouldn‘t have pushed yourself so hard when you‘re not feeling well.” 

“My manager was the one who made all the arrangements. I knew nothing when I was performing on stage.” Words were stuck in Yara‘s throat as she was trying to explain to Kenneth. 

She continued, “I only found out about the pre–recorded music when the string of the piano snapped. The mic that was attached to the instrument was not on at all. But still, it‘s my fault. Sorry to have disappointed you.”. 

Kenneth was not pleased when he found out what Yara did from the news, but after listening to her explanation, he decided to believe her. 

I‘m sure a girl like Yara, who was kind enough to assist me when I needed medical attention, would not resort to such a despicable act. Yara must have worked hard to put up a great performance, and it must be her manager who pulled the trick behind her back. If the accident didn‘t happen, she wouldn‘t have found out what her manager did as well. 

What? But I know nothing about medic!
