Chapter 519 Jolin chuckled, "Leah, you're not fat at all. Girls should be just like you. Being too skinny wouldn't be good for health and childbirth. When | pick a daughter-in-law | would never choose a skinny girl. We, the Hawthorne family, are counting on Avery to carry on the family line." Upon hearing this, Leah flashed a grin and took a hearty bite of her roasted chicken.
Delicious! Aurelia, after taking a bite of her steak, spoke slowly, “These days, the paparazzi are overly hyping your love life, most likely paid by the Bottorff family. They're trying to divert the public's attention and downplay Karin’s issues.” As she was speaking, the doorbell rang. The servant went to answer it. It was Arnold.
William, thrilled, jumped off his chair and ran toward him, "Daddy!" Arnold picked him up, lovingly kissing his little cheek.
Zack quickly instructed the servant to prepare an extra set of cutlery.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtArnold waved it off, "No need, Zack. I've already eaten.” "Then have some dessert, and it's your favorite." Jolin had the servant bring out the dessert and serve him a bowl.
He put William back in his chair, allowing him to continue eating, and sat down beside him.
"Today, Mr. Bottorff from Starstruck Entertainment came to see me: Aurelia knew Mr. Bottorff would go to him.
“We were just discussing Karin's issue, how does Mr. Bottorff plan to resolve it?" Arnold said, "He proposed to transfer a major IP to Serenity Films, in exchange for Avery dropping the issue with Karin, asserting that Leah was the first to trip Karin and that Karin merely lost control and hurt her." A spark of anger flashed in Avery's eyes, and he asked, "Did you agree?" “Of course not. Leah is your assistant, and this matter is for you to decide,” Arnold said.
"It's outrageous that she wants to shift the blame after going crazy. She must publicly apologize to Leah’ Avery was indignant, and he would not let Leah be wronged, whoever hurt Leah was unforgivable.
Aurelia glanced at Leah, "Leah, what do you think?" Thinking of Avery's staunch defense of her, Leah's heart warmed, "I'll follow Avery's decision." Arnold stroked his chin, revealing a hint of ruthlessness, "Actually, I've already decided to directly blacklist Karin" Avery felt the same way.
If she sincerely apologized and begged Leah for forgiveness, there could be room for negotiation. But with this attitude, they could only ask her to leave the entertainment industry.
Aurelia was clear, Karin would never come out and apologize. In the entertainment industry, a reputation was everything.
Apologizing was useless. The moment she admitted to hurting Leah without cause, her career was over.
She could only insist that Leah tripped her, causing her embarrassment and her outburst of anger was a result of being upset, only then could she have a glimmer of hope.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOn various online platforms, the internet mercenaries employed by Starstruck Entertainment were busily defending Karin, constantly highlighting her various acts of goodwill, such as donations and advocating for justice.
[I'm a bystander. If | were trapped in such an important event, and my dress was dirtied, | think anyone would be upset. If it were me, I'd be furious too.] [People are not saints, who can be without fault. It was Avery's assistant who made the mistake first, they should apologize first.] [Avery's assistant is very arrogant, and I've seen it myself. Always stirring up trouble, then playing the victim, it's totally unacceptable, | feel sorry for Karin.] This series of manipulative operations thoroughly infuriated Avery's fans, who began digging up dirt on Karin.
When Leah saw the timing was right, she had Abe expose all of Karin's dark secrets.
Karin bullied at school and led to a victim losing his hearing. She slapped a female actress on set, forcing her to kneel.
Pictures and proofs were provided.
Karin successfully made the headlines.
Public opinion quickly sided with one party, "Get out of the entertainment industry, Karin!" “Karin is just arrogant because she knows she has her father's support. She must have thought it was just a staff member, not taking therm seriously, wanting to take out her anger on someone. Little did she know, that person was Avery's assistant.” "Like mother, like daughter. Her mother was a mistress, and what good can come from a mistress's child?”
