Chapter 235: Chapter 235: Joanna Ramsey Was Beaten
Brocade City Grand Hotel.
Mason Bennett still had a meeting to attend, while Bella Green snuck to the hotel first, sitting alone in a private room, looking frustrated.
Thinking about the man’s domineering and non-negotiable one-week deadline he gave her, her teeth itched with anger.
The most annoying part was that after saying this, the man added another sentence.
He would only accept an agreement as a result of her consideration.
Screw that, then what’s there to consider?
Just as she was brooding, there was a knock on the private room door. Bella got up to open it.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Fiona Grantham and her assistant, that woman named Nancy Lowe, standing outside.
Bella raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Why is the movie queen here so early?"
Fiona looked at her, her mind recalling the phrase on Weibo, "My brother already has a girlfriend," and she felt a blockage in her chest.
But she smiled and said, "Mason said there’s another meeting at the company, so I sent Aaron to pick him up."
Mason, Aaron.
Just these terms already gave her a warning. Was this to show she had a closer relationship with the two brothers?
"Bella, Bella!!" Suddenly, a soft, childish voice echoed loudly.
Bella looked at the girl wearing a pink hoodie dress and couldn’t help but smile, waving at her.
"Wow, Brother Mason is so generous, inviting us here for a meal." Joanna Ramsey immediately ran to Bella’s side, holding her arm and said with a grin.
Fiona looked at the girl who suddenly appeared, her brows furrowing slightly. Her intuition told her this must be the ’Boyfriend of my brother’ girl.
"Do you know where this is? Shouting around, having no manners at all." Nancy Lowe, standing behind Fiona, said disdainfully.
Her voice was not quiet, and at such close proximity, Bella and Joanna could hear it clearly.
The smile on Bella’s lips faded instantly, and Joanna wasn’t pleased either. She looked at Nancy, then at Fiona, and smiled again.
"Oh, I was wondering who it was. So it’s the movie queen. How about the big gift you received today? Satisfied?"
Fiona’s face flashed with a touch of anger. Was this girl openly challenging her?
Nancy heard this and looked at her, then at Bella’s intimate appearance, immediately guessing something.
"So it was you who posted those things online slandering Phoebe?"
"What do you mean slander? What, dare to do but don’t dare to admit? Can you say the person drinking in the photos isn’t Fiona Grantham?" Joanna snorted coldly, her face full of contempt.
Fiona felt her body sway at this, her face paling a bit more.
In the early years, without fame or opportunities, she indeed had dinner with producers and directors several times, but nothing happened.
But those photos were hard to make people believe they just purely had dinner,
Fortunately, Mason Bennett had long known and believed in her, so she didn’t mind as much. But being ridiculed face to face like this, she felt humiliated.
"I warn you not to talk nonsense." Nancy took a step forward, glaring angrily at Joanna, pointing at her with an unfriendly expression.
Joanna, though small, had a big temper. Being pointed at like this, she got angry immediately.
She raised her hand and slapped away the hand pointing at her with a smack.
"Just because you’re loud doesn’t mean you’re right? How am I talking nonsense? Bullying Bella and pretending to be innocent online, isn’t that disgusting?"
"Little girl, if you’re not speaking the truth, don’t talk nonsense, or it’ll easily bring trouble to yourself." Fiona’s voice turned colder, issuing a warning.
"The truth is you’ve acted like a bitch and now want a monument. Let me tell you..."
"Smack..."
A sudden, loud slap landed without warning, knocking Joanna off balance, causing her to fall backward.
