Chapter 166


    Hal was livid as he looked at the reporters in front of him, “When I asked you guys toe gossip


    hunting before, you weren’t like this. Now that you’ve taken my money, you want to ck off?”


    The reporter replied, “But you never said we were to shoot Ms. Irvine! You didn’t specify who the target


    was!”


    Seeing how afraid they were of Astrid, Hal was confused. After all, the media reporters he had hired


    were big shots, how could they be so scared of Astrid? Before he could figure out why, the reporters


    were already packing up to leave.


    “You reporters love gossip, don’t you?” Hal growled, “She’s just a small–time star, what are you so


    scared of?”


    “A small–time star?” a reporter was taken aback, “She’s our boss!”


    “You want us to expose our own boss? Are you trying to get us all fired?”


    Boss?


    DreamScape Entertainment had nurtured countless entertainment journalists, fifty percent of the


    famous ones in the industry worked for thepany.


    He had invited them because of their influence in the entertainment industry to shoot Astrid!


    Who would have thought, they would tell him that Astrid was the boss of theirpany!


    Hal refused to believe it, “You guys are bullshitting, I’ve checked yourpany, the legal representative


    is named Aaron!”


    The reporter exined, “During our financial crisis a few years back, Ms. Irvine bought ourpany.


    Aaron is Chad’s real name, he’s just the acting legal representative. The real boss is Ms. Irvine, she

    just didn’t want us to disclose her identity!”


    Hal was furious. He knew Astrid liked to invest inpanies and even had her own. But he never


    expected Astrid to have bought DreamScape Entertainment! Gracie called again, Astrid didn’t want to


    be around Hal any longer, so she bypassed him to leave.


    The reporters moved aside, Hal coldly said, “I won’t let go. I know your rtionship with Elio is fake,


    I’ve already checked, you’re not even married!”


    Astrid scoffed, “Just because we’re not married now doesn’t mean we won’t be in the future, Hal, I


    won’t give you any chances!”


    “Elio may not be perfect but he doesn’t do things that disgust me, he doesn’t force me to do things I


    don’t want to, he would change for me, he respects me, is willing to protect my dreams with me, unlike


    you, who only wants to keep me as a ything!”


    Hal waspletely taken aback.


    Many pursued Astrid but none had received such high praise from her.


    She was still moved.


    Elio.


    Hal watched Astrid’s retreating figure, his expression was very cold.


    Before she got to the set, Astrid texted Chad, “Hal paid a bunch of reporters from DreamScape


    Entertainment to shoot me today, they’re our people, but I’m worried someone might defect, handle it.”
