Chapter 1843


    Leighton’s eyelid twitched as he ignored Nicole’s absurd usations. The reporter attempted to extract


    more information from him. However, Leighton remained tight- lipped, only responding to questions


    rted to the movie. The journalist had no choice but to steer the conversation back to the film.


    After a while, the interview concluded. Leighton walked over to Ste, saying, “Hey, let me head to the


    restroom, and we can grab a meal togetherter.”


    Felicity seized the opportunity to get an autograph and gave him a thumbs-up.


    “You did great, Leighton!”


    Leighton chuckled and headed to the restroom. Ste and Felicity sat in the lounge, waiting for him.


    Shortly after, Nicole entered, handing them each an orange. She winked and said, “We’re at a movie


    press conference, yet the lead actor is sitting in the audience?”


    Ste chuckled and joked, “That’s because I don’t want to be overshadowed by your radiance on stage.”

    Nicoleughed, “Well, aren’t you sweet? Why did you quit The Enclosure?”


    Ste smiled and replied, “I decided to inherit the family business.”


    Nicole was stunned to hear that. “I think you should reconsider; the script is really good,” she sincerely


    advised her.


    At this stage of her career, Nicole had countless opportunities at her fingertips.


    However, Ste required a standout film to elevate her visibility as a rising neer striving to make


    her mark in the industry.


    Ste shook her head and exined, “I can’t shoot for the time being due to my health. Besides, I’ve


    invested money into this. It’s only best that you y the role.”


    Surprised, Nicole chuckled, “Ah! Forgive me, sponsor.”


    Steughed, thinking that Nicole was an interesting person.


    After Nicole left, amotion broke out outside. Felicity and Ste exchanged nces and got upto


    investigate.


    In the corridor, a well-dressed woman was pulling Nicole’s hair, cursing, “You shameless slut! How could


    you seduce your own brother?!”


    Nicole’s face turned ugly as she grasped the woman’s wrist, sternly saying, “You lunatic, let go of me!”


    Instead of releasing her grip, the woman raised her handbag and swung it at Nicole’s head.


    “How dare you bask in glory on stage, pretending to be a decent person?! Do your fans know what kind


    of person you are in private?”


    As the woman spoke, she shouted to those around, “Are you aware that this actress leads a more


    interesting life offstage than the roles she ys? She seduced her own brother and is also attracted to


    women! She even took indecent photos for fame. She acts all innocent on the surface, but in reality,


    she’s just a slut!”


    People are drawn to drama, especially when it involves the humiliation of someone’s dignity. The


    rtively narrow corridor soon became crowded with curious onlookers.


    They were there for the show. Not a single person stepped forward to intervene except for Nicole’s


    assistant.


    The woman lost control, repeatedly striking Nicole’s head. As the assistant tried to help, she was shoved


    to the ground, narrowly avoiding hitting her head on the steps.


    Ste frowned, ready to step forward and assist, but Felicity quickly stopped her and said, “Don’t be


    reckless. Keegan will kill me if something happens to you!”


    Rolling up her sleeves, she added, “I’m going to ensure justice is served.”


    Before Felicity could reach the scene, Leighton suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the woman’s


    hand.
