My Bossy CEO Husband

Meanwhile, on the other side of the city, Eris had just barely escaped from the reporters who were out for her blood when she
received a call from her agent, Kate.
She was sitting inside her fancy sports car at the time, but no luxury could keep her fingers from trembling as she answered the
phone.
As soon as the call connected, Kate's angry voice came over the line.
"Eris! Tara has seen the press conference.What the hell is wrong with you? Do you know how badly this is going to affect us?"
"Kate..."
"Cut the crap already and just listen! Tara wants you to come to the company immediately!"
Kate then ended the call without even waiting for a response, Eris could only stare at her phone in horror, and she stayed that
way for several minutes.
Her face filled with malice.Her parents were about to be put to jail.Her reputation was ruined.She had never imagined herself to
be in such a disreputable position as she was currently in.
Never! Eris gripped her phone tighter, almost crushing it in her anger.
But she quickly collected herself and revved up her engine.She still had matters to deal with.
Twenty minutes later In Starlight Media When Eris arrived, her colleagues and several other celebrities were huddled in groups.
They muttered among themselves, eyeing Eris and pointing at her as she walked by.
"What do you think you're looking at?"
Eris snapped at them through gritted teeth.
Being the most successful star of the company, coupled with the influence of her rich and powerful boyfriend, Eris always looked
down on everyone else It was precisely because of this that most of the female celebrities in the company loathed her.
"Humph! You're still acting cocky after all that you did? Do you honestly think you're still number one around here? What a joke!
You only seem nice on the surface, but you're a vicious snake through and through! No matter how good your disguise was, your

ugly personality still came out in the end!"
"How true! To think that she had the gall to play the victim after stealing her sister's boyfriend...What a load of bullshit! She's such
a disgusting woman!"
"If I were in her shoes, my conscience would never allow me to go out.What is she even doing here? Shame on her!"
Eris stopped her pace and glared at them.
They weren't even trying to lower their voices! Her hands clenched into fists at her sides.
"Oh, no.We have to leave quickly, girls! We can't piss Eris off.If something bad happens now, she might manipulate things to put
the blame on us."
"Yes, yes, you're right.She is good at playing the victim, after all.Come on, let's get out of here."
"Let's go!"
The girls scurried off, but not before sneering at Eris one last time.She cussed to herself.
Once she got out of this situation and made a comeback, she would make those people pay the price for mocking her.
Eris stomped over to the elevator with a thunderous expression.
On the sixteenth floor At the CEO's office The elevator doors opened to Kate, who had been waiting in the lobby for quite some
time.
Kate had short, sleek hair, delicate makeup, and red lips.She was wearing a black suit that tapered perfectly to her figure,
making her appear all the more imposing.She had her arms crossed over her chest, looking annoyed and impatient.
The moment she saw Eris, her scowl darkened.
Eris looked like an utter mess.Her white dress was dirty, with puffs of dust coming out of the fabric when she moved, and her
long, black hair was disheveled.
Her face, too, looked pale and lifeless.
"Kate..."

"Tara has been waiting for you for a while,"
Kate cut her off before walking straight to the CEO's office.
Eris had no choice but to shut her mouth and follow.
The only sound in the room was the steady click-clack of Kate's heels as they hit the tiles, and it sounded very ominous to Eris
for some reason.
"Tara is furious.You'll have to explain matters to her yourself, Eris."
"Kate..."
"Oh, and by the way! Carter called just now.He told me you haven't been feeling well recently and asked for several days off."
"I'll go to the set tomorrow."
Kate looked back at her and narrowed her eyes.
"What's wrong?" Eris asked nervously.
"Carter said that you should rest at home for a few more days.As for work, there’s no need for you to rush or anything."
Eris' heart skipped a beat.
‘What does that mean? Are they telling me to stop working?’
"As for the project we've been working on recently, the one that wanted you to endorse...well, that's been canceled."
"What? But haven't we already signed the contract?"
"Please don't interrupt me when I'm speaking!" Kate barked at her.
"It doesn't end there.All previous endorsements you've done and the campaigns you've attended are now being pulled out of the
media.This should come as no surprise, as the public have lately been cracking down on celebrities with scandals and criminal
records.That's why variety show episodes that you've appeared on are also deleted."
Eris felt cold all over.She forgot about her lofty attitude and reached out to Kate to try and plead with the latter.

"What are you doing?"
"Kate, you've been taking care of me since I started my career in the entertainment industry.We've been working together for
three years.Didn't you also manage to advance your career because of me? It's thanks to me that you are now a top agent in the
company.Besides, we're also friends in private, aren't we? Please help me this time!"
"Friends?"
Kate echoed with disdain.
"You did nothing but berate me in private.Do you remember when my son was hospitalized because of a fever last time? I had to
rush home to take care of him, and what did you do? You cursed at me, at my son, even going as far as saying that you hope he
dies! I have no need for friends like you." Eris’ nails dug into her palms as she clenched her fists in anger.
‘Ana! Damn her! It must have been her, that blabbermouth! She was the only one there to hear my complaints!’
"Kate..."
"I can't help you!"
Kate snarled at her and rolled her eyes.
"Like I said, Tara has been waiting.It's about time for you to go in."
I Eris hadn't even noticed that they had already reached the door of the CEO's office.
"Why are you still standing there? How long do you plan to make Tara wait?"
Left without any other choice, Eris took a deep breath and turned to face the music.She knocked on the door in quick, short raps.
"Come in!"
Eris swallowed the lump in her throat, then pushed the door open.
Tara was the CEO.
She had taken over the company since divorcing Wesley.She was over 40 years old, had a slender figure, and a sharp bob
cut.She was the perfect image of a capable businesswoman and an accomplished socialite.

It was also worth noting that her father was a member of the city gangs, so she had an inherently strong aura.
Today, she was dressed in all black.As soon as Eris stepped food inside the office, Tara's laser gaze focused on her.
"Tara..."
Eris muttered, lowering her head in a mixture of fear and embarrassment.
Tara leaned back in her chair and declared, "Starting tomorrow, you no longer work in this company."
Eris looked up then.
"Tara!"
Tara's own marriage had been ruined by infidelity.
As expected, she hated women like Eris more than anything.She had seduced and stolen a committed man from her sister.
This was even more disdainful than anything Tara could imagine.
"Tara..."
"I watched the whole press conference."
Tara turned the computer on and cocked her head at Eris.
"The evidence and witnesses were all presented.Your scandals have been confirmed, and your image has been permanently
damaged."
"Tara, I know that the scandals are going to have some pretty disastrous impact for now, but surely, we can still save my
image..."
Eris ran over to the desk and began to beg.
"Tara, I am the most popular and profitable star of the company.Please help me! Please, just this one time..."
Tara scoffed and shook her head.
The last thing she needed was money.

She had always done whatever she liked.
That was why she stood her ground and refused to give the company to Wesley when they divorced.
Even then, the company was just a source of amusement for her, a way to pass the time.
There was nothing Eris could offer her, let alone try to bribe her with.
"Your contract with the company is for five years.There are less than two years left before the contract expires.You can stay until
then if you want, but we won't be arranging any work for you anymore!"
Eris' legs gave out, and she crumpled to the floor.With this, Tara was effectively banishing her from the entertainment industry!
