Chapter 27


    Chapter 27 The Spencers Bankruptcy


    Inside the karaoke private room.


    Crash! The table’s wine bottles, sses, fruit tes, and pastries were swept to the floor, creating a


    mess.


    Mnie was taken aback by Stephanie’s furious outburst and stuttered tofort her, “S–


    Stephanie, I’m sorry. I am the one who caused trouble for you. But I did it for your good because I


    wanted to help you. Who knew Milly, that b*tch, still had a trick up her sleeve.”


    Mnie genuinely considered Stephanie to be her close sister. When she heard Stephanie’s


    comint, she didn’t hesitate to stand by her side, treating Milly as theirmon enemy.


    In reality, she had no personal grudge against Milly.


    However, seeing Stephanie being forced to apologise in front of the entire school because of her,


    she felt even more guilty. She forgot that she could have simply ignored the whole situation.


    Stephanie took several deep breaths to suppress the urge tosh out.


    This Mnie, she’s just a fool. Apologising in front of Milly was one thing, but she dragged me into it


    and made me apologise in front of many people. She’spletely ruined my reputation!


    If my parents and brothers found out, they would look down on me. Then, everything I had


    aplished in the Buts would go to waste.


    But now she couldn’t break up with Mnie. After all, the only pawn she could use now was her. If


    Mnie didn’t help her, she would be too weak against Milly.


    “It’s okay. I was just too angry just now. I didn’t expect my sister to be so heartless, not even willing


    to let me go, so I made you suffer with me. I’m sorry, Mnie, it’s all my fault. Stephanie pursed her


    lips; her eyes were red, and her voice choked with sobs like a pitiful little victim.


    When Mnie saw her like this, her sense of justice returned. She rolled up her sleeves angrily.


    “Stephanie, you are really too kind. She bullies you so much, but you still call her sister.”


    Obviously, she had forgotten that they were the ones who started the trouble on purpose.


    Stephanie sniffed, her tone filled with despair, “Everyone in the family likes my sister. She is


    outstanding and has now ranked first in the whole grade. I am definitely no match for her. My sister


    dislikes me, so I dare not say anything.”


    Mnie felt heartbroken when she heard Stephanie’s pitiful voice.


    Initially, she envied Stephanie for being born into the Buts, with six brothers who treated her like


    at little princess. But now it seemed that she also had a lot of worries and was very cautious.


    It’s all because of Milly. Stephanie wouldn’t have suffered so much grievance and hurt if Milly hadn’t


    returned!


    No, I have to help Stephanie.


    She suddenly thought of something and excitedly leaned in front of Stephanie, saying, “Stephanic,


    I suddenly remembered something. You can definitely outshine your sister in this matter. Your


    parents will be proud of you because of this.”

    Stephanie raised her head, which was hanging low, and asked anxiously. “What is it?”

    Mnie continued, “A few days ago, I heard someone telling my dad that Director n Hawkins is


    coming to our school to select a supporting role for his new movie. The role requires a girl who can


    do ballet. Stephanie, you have learned ballet before and have reached level nine. You are also so


    beautiful. He will definitely choose you.”


    Stephanie’s eyes lit up with joy as soon as she heard this. She instantly became excited.


    Director n Hawkins, a big shot who has won numerous awards from significant directors


    domestically and internationally. Every movie he directs bes a hit, and many celebrities are


    willing to be a cameo


    in his films.


    Moreover, he has produced countless award–winning actors and actresses.


    If she could be chosen, it would bring great honour to the Buts.


    “Can we trust this news? There are so many aspiring actors who would love to work in Mr. Hawkin’s


    films; how is it possible that they haven’t found a suitable candidate? Stephanie questioned.


    Mnie quickly exined, “I’ve heard that the requirements for this role are rigorous. The character


    must be innocent yet worldly–wise, as well as be proficient in ballet. Many female stars in the


    entertainment industry have already been eliminated based solely on the first requirement. I heard


    that Mr. Hawkins has been looking nationwide for this role.”


    “So, this news is definitely urate. They will visit our school in a few days; the principal has


    already given approval. My dad happened to kдetivare fal denting’s assistants and since I attend


    Crestwood High, I thought I should inform you. You should start preparing now. Stephanie, this time,


    you will definitely outshine Milly!”


    updates?


    You will be notified for the updates


    Stephanie’s eyes lit up with determinof the Stovely bucher finding ppress the excitement in her


    heart.


    Despite being adopted by the Buts, her parents showered her with love and attention, focusing


    on all aspects of her upbringing, including etiquette, social skills, and various talents.


    One of these talents was ballet, which was the skill she had been training in for the longest time and


    excelled the most. She also had already passed level nine!


    As for Milly,ing from a humble background, she was fortunate to have enough to eat, let alone


    afford ballet lessons.


    This time, Stephanie was eager to see what Milly could bring topete with her!


    Upon entering the house, Mnie was stunned by a sudden p.


    She suffered a brief deafness in her left ear.

    As soon as she looked up, she saw her father, Jeff Spencer. His sleeves rolled up, and his face


    flushed with anger. Despite being restrained by her mother, Emily Shaw, he still attempted to strike


    her again. “You ungrateful child! You still have a face to go home! I’ll teach you a lesson today!”


    Emily’s eyes were red from crying, but she felt heartbroken witnessing her daughter being hit


    “Mnie, be obedient. Go upstairs and rest.”

    Mnie, stubborn as ever, stood her ground with a swollen left check, refusing to budge. “Dad,


    what’s gotten into you? Why did you hit me out of nowhere?”


    “What’s gotten into me?” Jeff’s chest heaved with anger as if he would lose his breath in the next


    second. He stretched out his trembling hand, pointed at her, and continued, “It’s all because of you.


    Our family’spany ispletely ruined. That was the life–long efforts of your grandfather and


    me! Now, everything is gone, no money, no projects, nopany, nothing.”


    After saying that, he crumpled onto the carpet, sobbing uncontrobly.


    It was the first time Mnie had seen her father in such a state. In her memory, he was a


    sessful and charismatic businessman, always witty and charming. But today, he appeared lost


    and broken, consumed by despair.
