Accidental love

Chapter 11 Confrontation

The next morning, Anna received a call from Lucy.

"Now the investors are asking Black to take full responsibility and the reputation of Brilliant Entertainment Company was damaged badly. Besides, Alice had to quit several scheduled programs because of the public opinion against her. Anna, you have gone through the first stage. Well done."

Lucy sounded very joyful. She had worked for Anna for a long time and hence hated it when those people achieved their purpose by hook or by crook long time ago. Now it was time for them to stew in their own juice.

Anna wasn’t surprised about this result.

"How about the third female role?" She had to fight for herself but she never wanted to make things diffcult for Director Bush.

"The result isn’t final."

"Good, Lucy. Stay low key recently. I’m afraid Black will find you trouble." Anna was more familiar with Black’s working style than anyone else.

She wouldn't be used as a pawn like a fool again.

Anna hung up the phone and smiled in relief, which was seen clearly by the man sitting opposite. "If you need me, you can always ask for help," said he.

"OK!" Anna was fully at ease with it. After last night, she didn’t treat him as an outsider.

Her answer made Jack very satisfied since he knew he had earned it himself.

"I'll go to the office for a meeting later. Take good care of yourself."

Anna responded with a smile. They were special to each other. They shared this tacit understanding and cherished each other, which was so precious and significant.

Anna looked at the clock. It was time for her to come on the stage. Otherwise, how could this show get more exciting and thrilling?

The superiority of the game must stay in her hands. Let's see how she turned defeat into victory! NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Just when everyone in Brilliant Entertainment Company was very busy finding her according to the order from Black swearing to find her no matter what, Anna took the initiative to appear before the company.

She looked so energetic and lively, wearing a neat denim dress and combing her hair in a simple ponytail. Then she came to Black’s office.

."Miss Anna!" Black's secretary was dumbstruck.

Anna looked relaxed like nothing had happened. She sat on the sofa as usual and looked at Black without saying a word.

"How dare you even come back? See what you've done!" Black shouted angrily.

He threw today's newspaper on the ground where the front page showed Alice spent a lot in buying the roles.

"Do you have any idea how much the company has invested in Alice? Can you imagine what a huge loss for our company if you don't prove her innocence?"

"Black, what are you saying? I don’t understand." Anna blinked her eyes innocently and made a confused look.

"Even Lucy is riding the high horse in front of me. Do you still want to play dumb with me? Is it fun? If you have trouble with me, you can tell me in advance. Why do you use such a dirty means to go against Alice, me, and the whole company?"

He was so angry that he just threw a series of questions and didn’t let her explain first. This reminded her of the past when he was also quarreling terribly with her for Alice. Back then, why couldn’t she see him through? It had always been Alice that he had cared about and protected most!

"Black, I really don't understand what you're talking about. We're getting married soon. Why will I hurt you and the company? It doesn't do me any good." Anna pretended to feel hurt with an innocent face.

"Okay!" Black took a deep breath. He couldn’t tell whether Anna was acting. "Then tell me, where have you been these days? Why can’t I find you after this audition scandal?"

Black looked into Anna's eyes as if he was going to eat her.

"I..." Anna coughed. "There were so many reporters in the small theater that day that I made great efforts to get rid of them. If I had come straight back to you, someone would have found you had something to do with this audition. I didn’t show up to protect you."

"Really? But you made me lose the upper hand in this case. Do you know?" Black was very angry. But he was afraid to say more malicious words. He had used Anna many times these years. Besides, he knew if Anna really turned against him, it would be a heavy blow to the company.
