“Darryl Darby!”
Finally, Walter snapped back to his senses. He looked at Darryl in shock and fury. “So, you’re the Elysium Gate’s Sect Master. We have no feud with each other, so why did you slap me?”
Walter scanned his surroundings and yelled, “Even if you’re the World Universe’s hero, you can’t just slap anyone. How unreasonable!” The man spoke as if he were the righteous one.
Wow!
The entire crowd erupted into a heated discussion.
“Well, Boss Walter is not wrong.”
“As the Elysium Gate’s Sect Master, he had hit an ordinary person—isn’t that considered as bullying?”
“He’s just doing as he pleases—how lawless!”
They continued to make comments about Darryl. Even though he had made huge contributions to the World Universe and deserved to be respected, he was wrong to hit Walter without reason.
“Why did I slap you?” Darryl sneered. “Walter Hart, as the president of an entertainment company, you used your powers to bully your female celebrities. You threaten to ruin their careers to get them to do what you wanted. You’re a scumbag—don’t you think you deserved to be slapped?”
Wow!
The crowd erupted into another uproar; many looked at Giselle and Lana, who stood behind Darryl. They suddenly realized something.
It looked like Darryl was there to stand up for Giselle and Lana.
“I—”
Walter’s face blushed. He opened his mouth, but he did not know what to say.
He knew that he was in the wrong.
Walter was too vicious. He knew that Giselle and Lana would not dare show the proof, so he had acted boldly. It was true—those who were cheap and vulgar were also invincible.
When he realized that Giselle and Lana hesitated to show the messages, Walter said arrogantly, “If they can’t show us any proof, what do you have to say, Master Darby?”
Woo!
Darryl took a deep breath as he looked at Walter coldly and said, “Walter, whether or not there’s any proof is not important right now. You killing Giselle and Lana’s career is the hard truth.”
Walter shrugged. He smiled slyly and said, “Master Darby, you can’t blame me for that. When they signed with my company, I arranged a new movie for them, but they rejected it. They were not willing to go according to the company’s arrangement. If I don’t freeze their careers, then whose should I freeze?”
“You’re lying!”
Giselle was enraged. She immediately said, “No one would act in that film. It’s—”
She stopped halfway; she could not continue with her words. She trembled violently; her exquisite face looked furious and embarrassed.
