Another person sneered, "Even a fool can see Valeria Johnson doesn’t like this assistant!"
"Why is that?"
"Why else? The last thing a star wants is for her assistant to look better than she does! Valeria Johnson, with her ticulously applied makeup, can’t compare to Assistant Morris’s natural beauty! Tsk tsk, beautiful girls really do attract jealousy."
"Being pretty doesn’t asure up to Valeria Johnson! Not only is Valeria Johnson a popular star, she might also be our future Boss Lady!"
"Co on, I think President Seys has better taste, right? With such a lousy personality as Valeria Johnson’s, marrying her would be a disaster! Our President, the male god, would be bound for lifelong misery!"
"Why else would Era promote Valeria Johnson so much? It’s all because Valeria Johnson cozied up to President Seys!"
"Damn, Valeria Johnson’s life is so good — she’s a top star, and maybe she’ll even be our Boss Lady at Era in the future. Why is there such a big difference among us won?"
"Yeah, I envy Valeria Johnson too, but what can you do when she’s more beautiful than we are?"
"Speaking of looks, she’s truly no match for Assistant Morris. Valeria Johnson’s appearance is all due to her makeup, whereas Assistant Morris’s charisma and looks far surpass Valeria Johnson. Hey, do you think Assistant Morris might be Valeria Johnson’s romantic rival? Rival lovers always go at each other’s throats, right?"
"You’re overthinking it! How could a little assistant be a rival to a big star? What kind of blind man would ditch a celebrity like Valeria Johnson to choose a re assistant?"
"But the assistant is beautiful, has the looks — tsk tsk, that pure appearance, if I were a man, I’d definitely choose Assistant Morris!"
.....
Only after the gossiping voices outside faded did Ariel Morris erge from the bathroom stall. She walked to the sink to wash her hands, her expression calm, as if she hadn’t taken the gossip to heart. Yet, her eyes seed slightly vacant, betraying her inner turmoil.
Her heart was unsettled.
Valeria Johnson is the future Boss Lady of Era, Arlo Seys’s wife?
Thinking about it, her heart began to feel a slight ache, then unraveling like silk strands, it pulled more intensely, deepening the pain.
After washing her hands, Ariel Morris turned to go back to work. Just as she turned, a pale hand swung sharply towards her.
Ariel Morris just ca back to her senses, not even having ti to dodge, before a loud slap landed squarely on her left cheek.
She raised her eyes, defiantly glaring at the person who hit her, a fla of anger igniting within her.
"Valeria Johnson, what the hell are you doing?!"
Valeria Johnson looked coldly at Ariel Morris, recalling the gossip she heard monts ago about her being less attractive than Ariel Morris, feeling incredibly bitter and angry, she ca over and slapped Ariel Morris’s pure face.
Even after slapping once, Valeria Johnson still felt unsatisfied, raising her hand to strike again.
Her hand swung just inches from Ariel Morris’s cheek before being caught firmly. Ariel Morris grabbed Valeria Johnson’s wrist, her tone icy: "Valeria Johnson, you only got the first slap because I was distracted! And now, you want to lay a hand on ? Dream on! Let tell you, if we actually fight, even two Valeria Johnsons wouldn’t be able to beat !"
"Don’t think Ariel Morris is soone easy to bully! If you don’t believe , bring it on! See if I can’t beat you black and blue, keeping you off the screen!"
"You dare! Ariel Morris! Just try being arrogant!" Valeria Johnson shouted, struggling to free her wrist.
Ariel Morris sneered, looking at Valeria Johnson, tightly clenching her wrist, exerting pressure to prevent her from breaking free.
