The True Heiress Slays (Quiana) novel Chapter 46

Chapter 46

“People will do anything to get ahead,” another voice chimed in.

“I was starting to give Quiana some credit, but this?” someone else added.

“Quiana’s not one to play nice,” someone muttered, recalling past incidents.

“Quiana? She’s not exactly new to rough stuff. Remember that time she hit someone with a bottle! Now she’s messing with boiling water and Evelyn. What’s her limit?”

The staff murmured, their words laced with skepticism. Alina’s defense of Quiana was met with doubt. Quiana’s recent past had been marred by controversy.

Winona seemed to have taken a punch to the gut, reeling back with a look of utter disbelief. “Quiana, what’s going on! Did I do something to make you want to take me down?” she questioned, her voice wavering, framing Quiana as the vengeful one

Jill was on the ground, her fingers gripping Quiana’s pant leg, her voice trembling with fear. “Quiana, you told me to do it. You promised me thirty

grand once it was over!!

Quiana’s face was unreadable, her eyes as frosty as a winter morning “Evidence?” she challenged.

Jill was at a loss, her mind racing. “Evidence she echoed, panic setting in. “You brought me in last minute, told me to switch the water, and now you’re saying I’m sefting Winona up? Quiana, you can’t just leave me hanging…

The onlookers were murmuring, their gazes at Quiana a mix of scorn and disdain.

“Quiana had

had that video ready to roll; she must have planned this” someone muttered.

“Who does she think she is, being so vicious?” another chimed in

“Mr. Camer, you can’t keep someone this ruthless on the crew, someone else pointed out

Winona was on the brink of collapse. “Quiana, what have I ever done to you?” she asked, her voice barely holding,

“I trust Quiana, this isn’t her style” Evelyn insisted, her voice tight with pain

“You brought her in, and she tried to sabotage Winona and hurt you. And you’re still defending her?” someone accused Evelyn.

“Yeah, if you keep this up, she’ll hit you again, another warned.

A shout cut through the tension. The ambulance is here” And with that, Evelyn was hurried away, the scene left in disarray.

Quianu’s face was a picture of nonchalance, her eyes locked on Jill with an icy stare. A wry smile twisted her lips. “You’re a smart cookie, but you’re barking up the wrong tree.”

Jill’s eyes darted around, confusion written all over her face. “What are you talking aboutk

With a swift tug. Quiana freed her pant leg from Jill’s clutches and turned to a camera operator standing nearby. “You got all that on camera, right?”

The camera operator, caught off guard, gave a quick nod

A smirk danced on Quiana’s lips, her eyes gleaming with defiance. “My lawyer will be in touch.”

A snide laugh echoed through the room. “A lawyer?” someone mocked. “Quiana, you can’t be serious”

Do you really think sending out a few legal letters is going to make us back down” another voice chimed in

“You should be thanking your lucky stars Winona isn’t slapping you with a lawsuit someone else added.

Winona, her eyes rimmed with red, spoke up, her voice soft but trembling “Quiana” she pleaded, “Just tell me what you want. If it’s about more screen time, I can talk to the director for you. But why go to such lengths to set me up“”

Quiana let out a dry laugh, her voice laced with scorn. “That was some performance. Put that into your acting, and you might just take home a trophy”
