    Chapter 3369 A Rare Showdown


    Jacinta gnashed her teeth together, and her blood boiled with anger when she witnessed Megan


    receiving Pierce’s recognition.


    How can Megan be better than me? She deliberately twisted my words and even called out my name.


    Damn her! That arrogant and conniving b*tch should just die!


    Pierce had long since grown irritated with the way Jacinta kept prattling non-stop, and the impatience


    lining his features became all the more prominent.


    He lifted his gaze and looked across the distance. To him, although Jacinta looked exquisite with her


    wless makeup, she was nothing but a rabid dog out to bite anyone who passed by. It seemed like


    she wouldn’t rest until she bit Megan to death.


    “Jacinta, you need to know when to quit. If you don’t even know something so basic, the connections


    you’ve umted in the entertainment industry over the years might very well be destroyed one day.”


    This was Pierce’s heartfelt advice to her, but to Jacinta, it sounded more like he was deliberately


    humiliating her.


    She balled her fists by her sides, then pointed a finger at Megan and turned to look at Pierce. With a


    sneer, she said, “Mr. Hughes, you don’t need to worry about me, but I must tell you. It won’t be easy for


    The Royal Wife to be a hit with this woman onboard your team!”


    After spitting out these harsh words, Jacinta swiveled on her heels to leave, but Megan would never let


    her off so easily. No matter what, she was going to announce the final results of thepetition to her.


    Hence, she called out, “Ms. Twinkle, don’t you want to know thepetition’s final results? This is a


    rare showdown between the two of us after all.”


    Jacinta wasn’t the slightest bit inclined to know the results because she knew full well who the people


    seated here were going to choose. In spite of that, there was no way she would admit that fact out loud.


    Hence, she simply decided to leave to avoid hearing the results.


    “You vited the rules first. There’s no way I’ll acknowledge the results of thispetition.”


    Megan studied her determined attitude and mentally scoffed. Wasn’t she oh-so eloquent earlier? Why


    does she lookpletely defeated now?


    With a disdainful sneer, she ignored Jacinta and turned to dere in a loud voice, “Regardless of


    whether or not Ms. Twinkle acknowledges it, the show must go on. Not to mention,” Turning back to


    Jacinta, she continued, “Except for you, no one else here has expressed their objection, so I think the


    results of thispetition should be announced no matter what. What do you all think?”


    Judging from Jacinta’s reaction, everyone knew the reason she strongly refused to acknowledge the


    results. They also knew that Megan was borrowing their support to knock Jacinta down a peg or two.


    Some of them were reluctant to be brandished like a weapon by Megan, but with Pierce openly


    protecting her, they were aware that one wrong word from them could mean the end of their careers.


    Everyonemented silently. It seemed like the two sisters were going to dominate half of the


    entertainment industry from then on.


    They were caught between a rock and a hard ce, but they would rather get on Jacinta’s bad side


    than Pierce’s. Hence, everyone yed along with Megan even though they felt aggrieved.

    Seeing everyone nodding their heads, a content smile formed on Megan’s lips and she said, “Alright,


    then. Let’s vote by a show of hands. Please raise your hand if you think Jacinta’s acting was good.”


    Suddenly, the ce plunged into pin-drop silence. Everyone exchanged nces, but no one felt that


    Jacinta’s acting skills were better than Megan’s.


    “Wow, no one?” Megan emphasized on purpose.


    With her back facing everyone, Jacinta’s face instantly turned ashen.


    The reason she hadn’t left yet was because she still harbored a sliver of hope. If the difference was


    only a couple of votes, she could still stand tall before Megan and admonish her for disrespecting a


    senior in the entertainment industry. After all, it was a man she portrayed. Hence, it was a trickier


    character to y.


    However, no one in the audience raised their hands to vote for her. In a state ofplete disbelief,


    Jacinta whirled around to re at everyone. The resentment in her eyes could almost burn a hole


    through them.


    Everyone was so startled by her gaze that they looked down and nursed their respective drinks, not


    daring to meet her eyes at all.


    Those present were all famous actors. Although it was almost the end of Jacinta’s golden era, her


    poprity back then was very high, and she was even considered a big hit at that time. Thus, they


    couldn’t afford to offend her.
