Chapter 48


    Chapter 48 Tit for Tat


    “But what?” Elspeth was intrigued.


    Abbie looked around. Only after making sure that no one paid attention to them did she lean over and


    whisper, “But the TV host is ke’s diehard fan. You previously shot that intimatemercial with him,


    so I bet she will attack you instead.”


    When Elspeth heard this, she didn’t think it was something to be wary of. On the contrary, she looked


    forward to the afternoon interview. “Alright then. Let’s see how she will attack meter.”


    Sure enough, a TV host came to the office to interview Elspeth at 3.00PM. She was wearing a tight-


    fitting professional suit that wrapped around her curvy and slender body snugly. It was an enticing


    sight.


    The male employees in thepany stared at her in awe, hoping that she was there to interview them


    instead.


    The host sashayed, swaying her body as she went. The minute she saw Elspeth, she felt a strong


    sense of intimidation. She’s so gorgeous! Her face and facial features are so exquisite, and even her


    hair carries a touch of elegance. So, this is my rival in love…


    “Hello, my name is Lenora Owen, and I’m the host of the local TV station.”


    “Hello.” Elspeth nodded at her with a smile. “I’m Elspeth Lynwood.”


    Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    “Without further ado, I’ll start the interview right away.” Lenora nced at the cameraman on the side


    and signaled him to turn on the camera.


    “Ites to my attention that you don’t know the patient. May I know why you decided to save thatdy


    at that time?”


    “I was bored and just happened to witness her copsing,” Elspeth answered without hesitation.


    “Did you ept thedy’s thanks and money after that?”


    “She did thank me, but I didn’t ept any money from her.”


    “Don’t you want any mary reward from her?”


    Elspeth looked at her aggressive stance and knew that this was her so-called attack. So, she changed


    the subject and asked, “Will the government give a mary reward for the citizen’s bravery?”


    “Of course!” Lenora secretly mocked Elspeth for being petty while donning a professional smile on her


    face. “In fact, it’s quite a lot of money too!”


    “If I ask other questions, you’ll be able to answer me, won’t you?”


    “Certainly!” Lenora was highly confident.


    “When exactly will the money be paid out?”


    Lenora had never considered this question. A qualified host would not allow the interviewee to divert


    the topic of discussion to this area, but she had asked unprofessional questions in order to humiliate


    Elspeth. Much to her bewilderment, Elspeth picked on her weakness. What a smart b*tch.


    Her expression changed slightly. “I’m not so sure about that.”


    Elspeth feigned confusion and puzzlement. “What? Didn’t you say you could answer me on everything?


    So, why can’t you answer my question? Are you a newly appointed host?”


    “I—” Lenora was rendered speechless, and her expression turned slightly gloomy.


    “The government rewards 1,000 dors per person for their bravery and righteousness, but I have


    enough money to go by, so I won’t do a good deed deliberately for 1,000 dors. Also, Miss Owen,


    please rehearse before the next interview. Don’t embarrass yourself.”


    Then, Elspeth turned to the cameraman and raised an eyebrow. “Please edit this scene out of the


    footage. I don’t want Miss Owen to be humiliated.”


    Lenora’s face flushed red due to rage, and she almost couldn’t control her temper.


    The cameraman awkwardly mumbled, “B-But this is a live broadcast, not a recording.”


    “Hurry up and shut it off! Can’t you see how mad Miss Owen is now?”


    Lenora suddenly came to her senses and realized that this was a live broadcast. She swiftly regained


    herposure and apologized, “I’m sorry. I made a few blunders earlier, so I wasn’t pleased with


    myself. Please forgive me. Well, that’s it for today’s broadcast. Miss Lynwood, thank you for the


    interview. We’ll see you again next time.”


    Then, she winked at the cameraman, signaling him to turn off the camera immediately.


    On the other hand, Elspeth stretched her bodyzily. “Is that it? I’m going back to work now.”


    “Wait a minute! Why did you humiliate me just now?!” Lenora’s face turned nasty, and her gentle


    demeanor was thrown out the window.


    Elspeth was dumbfounded. Is she actually trying to shift the me right back to me?! “Miss Owen, I


    think you knew very well why I said those things.”


    Lenora scowled. “You’re not stupid, after all. Alright, I’lle clean to you since you know it all. But, I’m


    warning you to keep a distance from ke. This is yourst chance, or I won’t let you off the hook!”


    “You honestly read too much into things, Miss Owen. ke and I are just friends.”


    “You’re bluffing! Will friends shoot ads as a couple? Drop your act already! If I catch you seeing ke


    again in the future, you’re so dead.”


    Elspeth simply cast an indifferent nce at the camera and smirked. “By the way, there’s something I


    forgot to tell you. I think your camera is still on.”


    Lenora froze in horror. Then, she turned to look at the camera, and her face turned stark white when


    she spotted the shing red light on the camera. Did everyone hear what I said?! Everyone heard my


    undisguised love for ke and my vicious threat to Elspeth!


    A horrified Lenora surged forward to turn off the camera before turning back to re at Elspeth. “You


    did this on purpose, didn’t you?! You knew that the camera was still running, so you wanted to


    embarrass me!”


    Elspeth shrugged and smiled indifferently.


    Due to Elspeth’s poprity, many people watched her live interview. At this point, although the camera


    was turned off, they knew what had happened. As a result, Lenora’s reputation was utterly ruined.


    ‘Look at your favorite host! Haha, she always wears that gentle and soft-spoken appearance. This is


    new!’


    ‘She’s so petty! Oh my, she’s disgusting.’


    ‘I want to puke! How dare she like ke?! Does she think ke will like her back?!’


    ‘Elspeth is so dashing! ‘I have enough money to go by’! Wow, she’s so cool…’


    The embarrassed Lenora didn’t want to stay there any longer. Since Elspeth disregarded her


    thoroughly, she wiped her tears in agitation and left with the cameraman.


    Elspeth shook her head as she watched her leave. Then, she remembered that she needed Callum’s


    signature on one of her documents, so she took the documents and went to his office.


    “Callum, I—” Before she finished, she spotted Callum’s phone on the table, and on the phone screen


    was the live broadcast that had just ended. She smiled brilliantly. “Aw, you watched my interview! Do


    you care that much about me?”


    As soon as she said this, he quickly shut down the website and said faintly, “It popped up by itself.”


    “Wow, your phone is quite user-friendly.” She smiled ambiguously. “What did you think about my


    interview?”
