Basically, since the opportunity to work with the TV station was extremely important to Narissa, Hallie had threatened her by saying that she wouldn’t let Narissa intern there if she didn’t go along with the plan!
Because of that, Narissa had no choice but to cooperate with her.
While Mila had indeed been somewhat angry with Narissa, after hearing her side of the story, she just couldn’t hold any grudges against her anymore.
After all, she couldn’t just put the blame on Narissa.
If Mila lost this position, sure, it would affect her job later on. However, she could still return to Mayberry where she still had her family and Gerald.
However, if Narissa lost the position, she would have nothing left.
‘If I were in her shoes, I would probably do the same thing, right?’ Mila thought to herself.
In the end, the true culprit of this entire fiasco was Hallie Yates. If she needed to hate someone, it should definitely be Hallie.
“I’m thinking of standing my ground against Hallie, Mila. I don’t want her to continue treating you like this!” huffed Narissa.
“Please don’t. It’s fine, I don’t blame you at all. I know that you’re having a hard time, but this matter is between Hallie and me. I won’t blame anyone else but her!” said Mila.
“Humph! How dare both of you talk nonsense! Stand still already!” said Hallie as she walked over to them, a smug smile on her face.
“Molly! Wanda! Stand here as well! We need more people handling the guests so I requested for two more hostesses!”
Hallie then glanced at Molly and Wanda as she stood by the entrance. By then, the VIPs had already begun showing up and they were all ready to greet them.
“William Rye, President of Yanken, has arrived!”
Following that announcement, a young man walked over like a superstar, surrounded by lots of people.
As he walked on, a flag representing the VIP was raised.
