Chapter 2267


    Chapter 2267


    Diana’s words were anything but polite, and they were clearly getting under Corben’s skin.


    She really saw herself as a big shot, but she was just a small-time actress.


    “Corben, how can you abandon me at a time like this?


    When we signed the deal, you said I could bring in so much profit for thepany and create so much


    value. My fan base has grown massively. Can’t you see that? You can’t do this to me!”


    From N?velDrama.Org.


    Corben leaned in closer to Diana. “Of course, I can do this to you. You’re just one of the many actors


    under my management. Sure, your fan growth is quick for a neer, but have you given a thought


    about Ivy? You’re not even in the same league as her. You’re from the same batch of new actors, and


    whenpared with Ivy, your progress doesn’t count for much.


    And what about all the trouble you’ve stirred up? Once your fans find out, don’t you think they’ll


    unfollow you in droves? Don’t fool yourself into thinking they’ll be loyal to you forever.”


    Corben dusted off his jacket, no longer wanting to engage with this madwoman.


    He turned to leave, and Diana was left clinging to the railing, reaching out and calling after him,


    “Corben, you can’t leave! Come back! You can’t give up on me!”


    “That Ivy, what’s she got that I don’t? I can surpass her easily. You’ll regret dropping me, Corben, you’ll


    see!”


    But Corben did not look back.


    Diana iled about for a while until only her echo answered her, then she slowly copsed.


    She could not believe that Ivy hadpletely ruined her bright future!


    “Ivy, you just wait. I’ll make you pay! Even if I die, I’ll haunt you forever!”


    When the officers thought she had calmed down enough to give her statement, she was still sullen.


    “Diana, as you can see, nowyer will make excuses for you now. We advise you to answer our


    questions truthfully; it might earn you some leniency.”


    Diana’s struggle was futile this time; no one would bail her out now that she was a spent force.


    “Diana, please detail the process of your crime that day.”


    Her head, which had been bowed, suddenly lifted as she looked at the officer and let out a coldugh.


    “Are you telling me you can’t find out if I don’t confess? How useless can you be?”


    The officers taking her statement were a bit miffed, surprised she was still defiant and uncooperative.


    “Why would you think we haven’t looked into you? Taking your statement is just part of our job. Diana,


    you’re under arrest now. I hope you’re not so arrogant as to think you’re smarter than modern


    investigative methods.”


    In fact, they had already traced the purchase records of the rope and her motive for the scheme.


    It turns out Diana was not exactly Miss Popr on set.


    Their inquiries revealed that most crew members had a low opinion of her, especially after her actions


    had tarnished the entire production with usations of bullying.


    Balfour observed from the sidelines as Diana stubbornly refused to face reality.


    She was more cold-hearted and ruthless than he had imagined. He didn’t want to think _about what


    might have happened if they hadn’t caught her this time, whether Ivy would still be lucky enough to


    escape from her clutches next time.
