Chapter 251


    The next morning, Charmine received a call from Eric.


    “HollyOak terminated their contracts with a few artists, including Scarlet. They all want to meet you, and


    they need your signature. Since their terminatingpensations are suchrge sums, and all of them


    are top supermodels in their own rights, the assistants couldn’t even make them go away.”


    “Alright,” answered Charmine, “I’lle over.” Charmine turned to look at the bed and gazed at both


    Anthony and Chris, fast asleep. Perhaps they fell asleep ratherte. Chris did not wake up early to


    paint; he slept soundly in the middle while Anthonyid t on the inside of the bed. Two figures-one


    big, the other small—with skin that glistened like jade carvings. A warm smile appeared on Charmine’s


    lips unknowingly. Charmine got off the bed carefully as she did not want to wake them up.


    Not long after she left, the phone on the bedside vibrated. Anthony opened his eyes to see a message


    popped up on his phone.


    [Hello, Mr. Bailey. I’m Tiffany Jordan. I’d like to tell you about what happened five years ago. I’m


    guessing Charmine wouldn’t tell you? That’s because she wanted to handle it herself. She’s always


    been so independent, never wanting others to help her. However, Julian had been crossing the line


    lately. Not only did he leave me, but he even tried to threaten Charmine with what happened five years


    ago so she’d marry him. The evidence consists of something that agonizes Charmine, and it could


    even make her do things she’s unwilling to do. If Julian reaches his limit, he might want to take down


    Charmine with him,pletely destroying her.


    Only you can save her. I’ll be waiting for you at Green Café at 2pm.]

    Anthony’s gaze darkened. He did not want to get involved with Charmine’s secret, but as he read


    Tiffany’s text…


    Was the incident happening five years ago so serious?


    It seemed that he had to figure it out. He pulled up Luke’s contact and ordered, “Clear up my schedule


    in the afternoon.”


    Meanwhile…


    When Tiffany made sure that Anthony got her text, she prepared herself in delight. She was officially


    discharged from the hospital, and although her hair was shaved, it was only a patch a t the top of her


    head. Topped with a wig, the scar would be as good as gone. Moreover, with the perfume in Tiffany’s


    possession, Anthony would surely sleep with her!


    Developed by an expert, the perfume-once spritzed-would erase a person’s self-control and make them


    do things against their will. Since Julian ditched her, Tiffany had to find herself a


    new suitor. If a woman who had given birth could sleep with Anthony, so could she! Whatever


    Charmine could get, so could she!


    Once she bedded him, she could at least get hold of arge sum of silence fee with the evidence at


    hand, even if Anthony did not want her. If Drake Jordan would not give her the family shares, she could


    buy them with her money and take charge of the shares entirely. She had to b e in control of Jordan


    before Charmine exposed her.


    Also…


    She reached out to touch her stomach; she happened to be in her fertile phase at that moment. If she


    could be impregnated with his child, so what if the Jordans despised her? She would not have to worry


    for the rest of her life! With that, Tiffany picked out her outfit with eagerness.


    Charmine arrived at RisingHawk, with only Scarlet in her office. A mild-natured woman, Scarlet was


    HollyOak’s second most-treasured artist. She was soft-spoken as well, and it gave one the impression


    that she was akin to a moonlight’s soft glow.


    s, Hollyoak promoted her as a foodie. No matter what events she participated in, Scarlet had to eat,


    eat, and eat some more to gain ‘likes’ from the audience and make them like her character. Although


    Scarlet hated that persona, she had no choice but to obey the authority of thepany. With this set-


    up character, she won Most-Likeable Supermodel Award, and thepany she represented won the


    support and likes of the customers. Last year, she received the ‘Most Commercial – Valued’ award, and


    this year, she won the ‘No.1 Supermodel’ award.


    Charmine looked at her with suspicion. “Why are you here? Have you managed to terminate your


    contract? Is HollyOak willing to let you go?”
