Chapter 145: Desperate Hours

Emily was in a state of panic.

“Vincent…”

“Emily.”

When Vincent looked at Emily, there was no longer the indulgence he once had in his eyes.

“I’m really annoyed right now. I’m leaying. You can take a cab by yourself.”

This had never happened before. She felt that something was slipping away from her.

At this moment, Holly was also furious.

“Weren’t we assured that everything was foolproof?”

“What is it now?”

“Are you playing me?”

Taylor felt helpless. “I just sent someone to check, and the makeup artist is missing.”

“What about her daughter?”

She was saved by someone.”

Holly was so angry that she almost flipped the table.

Bryony stumbled over. Her face was full of pleading.

“You must help me.”

Holly disdainfully pushed her away. “Get lost!”

Bryony was thrown to the ground, and the reporters quickly took pictures.

Holly didn’t even bother to avoid them.

Because she knew very well in her heart.

They wouldn’t dare to publish.

The Campbell’s legal team wasn’t to be trifled with.

Holly didn’t want to waste any more time here. She walked outside.

Angela watched her walk away and then walked over to Taylor.

“Don’t take it to heart. That’s just how she is, arrogant.”

Taylor said, “Sandra is weird.”

She tried to suppress her anger.

In front of her best friend, she didn’t want to get angry.

“Every time I try to scheme against her, something goes wrong.”

“Angela, is she really just a country girl?”

Angela nodded.

“She hardly left the village and didn’t have phones.”

2/3

Taylor found it hard to believe. “If that’s the case, she should be like a fool.”

How could someone who hasn’t had contact with the outside world for twenty years be so familiar with these big shots?

She looked towards Lawrence.

Lawrence was talking to Mason, seemingly satisfied with Mason’s performance.

“Let’s investigate further. I always feel that something is not right.”

Angela, thinking about recent events, also felt that something was off.

“Alright, I’ll talk to my mom and ask her for help.”

Taylor nodded.

If Debra was willing to help, it would be more effective.

Lawrence was congratulating Mason on being selected.

Originally, Mason was just a substitute, but because of his outstanding performance just now, he secured the role.

Meanwhile, Vincent, who had always been favored, became the substitute.

Mason was overjoyed, but Vincent was on the verge of depression.

Before leaving, Vincent passed by Mason.

He heard Mason said, “It’s all thanks to Sandra. Without her help, I wouldn’t be here now.”

Lawrence said, “Indeed.”

Mason smiled bitterly, “If it wasn’t for her guidance, which enhanced my mental resilience, I wouldn’t have passed Lisa’s test.”

Lawrence said, “That’s just how she is, always looking out for you, yet never vocalizing it.”

Lawrence realized that Vincent was standing nearby. He couldn’t help but let out a cold snort and continued, “It’s a pity that some people have treasures in their hands but fail to notice.”

Vincent’s face instantly darkened.

He wanted to retort. However, as he opened his mouth, he found himself at a loss for words. Taking a deep breath, he turned and walked away.

His assistant felt a stifling atmosphere in the car.

“Vincent, there’s something I want to tell you.”

“Go ahead,” Vincent replied, forcing down his anger.

The assistant said, “I just heard that Sandra went to the technical forum.

“P

Vincent didn’t say anything.

Before, he would get irritated and reprimand the mention of Sandra’s name.

The assistant continued, “Now, the Cooper is already at a disadvantage. I know you’re acquainted with a big shot who might be able to help Sandra out. If you help her this time, she’ll definitely return the favor. We all witnessed how Lisa stood up for her on set. She can get that role for you.”

Vincent said, “Contact him.”

The assistant smiled.

After making the call to the big shot, the assistant suggested, “We’re quite close to the technical building now. Should we go take a look?”

Vincent closed his eyes to rest and didn’t respond.

The assistant took it as approval and drove towards the technical building.

The members of the Cooper’s technical department were anxious.

The other team sneered,

“That’s all you got? You’ll be easily crushed.”

“Before we came, people warned us to be careful of you guys, but it seems we have nothing to fear.”

“Are you all just rookies? Our big shots haven’t even made a move, yet you’re already lost?”

“There used to be a formidable person named Earl, why isn’t he here?”

Charles was already sweating.

Her laptop was also hacked by opponents.

She frantically typed on the keyboard, but couldn’t produce any code.

Although Stacy was still persevering, her screen was also displaying some garbled characters.

Even if she tries hard to eliminate them, it’s not working.

If she still can’t find a way to deal with it, this core equipment under her control will be invaded by

opponents.

By then, they will be declared defeated!
