“That voice… Doesn’t it sound like Chris’s voice? But isn’t Chris at home preparing my presents for when I’m out of jail? Isn’t he sleepless without an appetite for food? Maybe I’m mistaken…’ Charmine pondered.
Charmine cleared up the area after she had finished eating. It was late at night so she could not believe she would get another visitor.
Click, clack, click, clack.
The sound of high heels could be heard from a distance. She could also tell from the sound of the footsteps that the owner o f the shoes had a strong temperament.
The door was pushed open, and Charmine peered out to see a woman standing at the door, dressed in a burgundy dress suit. She had a full head of big curls and an extraordinary aura. She looked like an extremely capable boss lady.
It was Claire Eastly!
Charmine gave her a once over before ignoring her completely. Claire walked in and closed the door. She assessed the room with a strong look of disgust before saying, “I can’t believe that the big shot diamond boss has actually ended up in this place. Oh well, I’ve told you before that the entertainment industry is not as easy as you think it is.
“You were able to make your fortune in the business sector. However, now that you’re here in the entertainment industry without anyone to guide you, you can still be stepped on by others.”
Charmine acted like she had not heard anything and began to wash the exquisite food container. Once she was done, she used a tissue to dry her hands.
Claire could not believe that Charmine was still so arrogant even now. She was about to blow her top but restrained herself and said, “Charmine, to be honest, I admire you very much. All the past times you managed to reverse the situation left me astounded. If you were to sign with me, I can help you settle – all the problems you’re currently facing. I can also guarantee that you’ll make it big in the industry. How does that sound?”

Charmine tossed the tissue and walked to the bed to rest. She sat back and lazily leaned against the headboard. That indifferent, cool attitude… She was arrogant, aloof, and did not bother to pay Claire any attention.
At this point, Claire could not bear it any longer and started to yell, “Charmine, I’m talking to you right now! Are you · listening to me? You’re at the end of your rope and I came here to help you. How can you be so disrespectful!
“I’m telling you that apart from me, there’s no one else in this world who can save you. If you sign with me, you’ll have hit the jackpot!”
“Huh?” Charmine raised one eyebrow and looked at Claire before asking, “Who are you?”
‘Who are you? What’s this cutting remark? She’s unbelievable,
thought Claire. Claire had just spent all that time working her butt off trying to convince Charmine to sign with her and Charmine had no clue who she was!
Claire was fuming and felt like she was about to have a heart attack. She had previously spoken to Charmine over the phone. Charmine was disinterested and detached over the phone when she turned down her offer. She could not believe that Charmine was now acting this way right to her face! She was
the Queen of PR. Everyone in the industry recognized her, so how could Charmine not even know her name!
Charmine was doing this on purpose! Claire gritted her teeth and said, “Charmine, on what basis are you rejecting my offer? Don’t you know you’re about to be sentenced to jail tomorrow? You’ll also need to pay out so much money in compensation. Have you given a thought to how you’ll spend the rest of your life?
“If you sign with me, you’ll be the number one start of Hollyoak Entertainment. Not only will you be free of suspicion, but you’ll also be famous all across Burlington. If you insist on being stubborn and continue to persist in your ignorant state, the rest of your life will be spent in jail!”
“The air inside jail might be fresher than your Hollyoak Entertainment by several hundred times. Has no one ever told
you that your breath stinks?” Charmine said as she tossed Claire a look of disgust. She even moved closer toward the wall.
Claire was enraged and ballistic with anger! Her face twisted with rage, her hands clenched into tight fists as she glared at Charmine and asked, “Charmine, I’m asking you one last time, are you going to be an idiot or sign with me? Don’t forget that in everyone’s eyes, you’re done for!”
“It seems like your bad breath is really terrible and extreme. Here, you can have one of these!” Charmine picked up a strip o fchewing gum from beside her pillow and thrust it toward Claire. Her movement was speedy and vicious, astonishing Claire!
Claire tried to avoid her but did not move fast enough. In a flash, the chewing gum was shot straight into her mouth, causing her to gag.
“Oh!” She reached her hand in to pull out the gum and angrily curse Charmine. “Charmine, just you wait. I’ll be waiting full o f anticipation to see how pitiful you are tomorrow!”. After she finished saying that, she turned her heels and left. The entire detention room was filled with the loud sound of her high heels clicking
After she had exited the police station, she made a call and ordered the person on the other side, “Find me ten internet celebrities for tomorrow and make preparations for them to livestream the hearing! Also, get these things for me. I’ll make sure Charmine never recovers from this setback!”
