The Mysterious Billionaire and His Substitute Bride

After the PR department weighed both the pros and cons, they discovered that Emani was in a fix and that it would be hard to
get her out of this situation. Since she had offended someone higher-up, it was not worth it to have the entire company go down
with her.
Even though she was a popular actress now, they had no other choice but to let her go. Furthermore, newcomers came into the
industry every day. They could always cultivate a brand-new star after her.
The company had given their final decision to Ruby, who was Emani’s agent.
“Ruby, did you hear from them yet? What did they say? Just say the word and I’ll hold a press conference to clarify the whole
matter.” Emani’s eyes were still swollen from all the crying.
Ruby let out a long sigh. “You’re in a lot of trouble now. Everyone is talking about you. After careful discussion, the company has
decided to terminate its contract with you. You happened to start the whole thing, Emani. It’s best if you just walk away right
now.”
Emani was shocked to hear that. “So you’re saying that you’re going to dump me?”
Ruby said with indifference plastered all over her face, “Emani, just look at yourself and the mess you’ve gotten yourself into.
How do you expect us to save you now? When you signed the contract with the company, you promised you would maintain a
good image. You brought everything upon yourself today.”
After that, she walked off with the contract and left. After the PR department weighed both the pros and cons, they discovered
that Emani was in a fix and that it would be hard to get her out of this situation. Since she had offended someone higher-up, it
was not worth it to have the entire company go down with her.
Emani was feeling so emotional that she was on the cusp of breaking down. She sat there in her seat in a daze for a long time
and decided to call Ritchie for help.
She believed that Ritchie would help her out in her time of need. After all, it was him who asked her to frame Janet and who
promised to make her more famous after she did that.
However, as soon as Ritchie answered her call, Emani heard him say with a sigh, “Emani, how dare you call me right now? I
heard you did so many bad things. I have to say, I happen to be very disappointed in you.”

Emani was at a loss for words. “Mr. Lester, it goes without saying, I didn’t mean for any of this to happen. I had no idea Kirby
would leak all that news about me. They should’ve been hidden well. Mr. Lester, please help me out this one time. After this, I’ll
be all yours for the taking!”
“Unfortunately, I don’t need you anymore, Emani. You brought this to yourself. There’s nothing I can do to help you out.” His
words were cutting and ruthless. After that, he hung up the phone before Emani could say another word.
Emani stared at the blank screen in utter disbelief, her beautiful eyes opening wide. She clenched her teeth tightly and said,
“What a bastard!”
While cursing him, she kept calling Ritchie but was not able to reach him again.
Obviously, she had been blocked by him.
Later, Lester Silk Fabric issued a statement that they had terminated their contract with Emani because of her immoral behaviors
earlier.
After she was sent home by her assistant, Emani was so enraged that she took out a bottle of red wine from the cupboard,
opened it, and gulped almost the entire bottle down. The dark red liquid leaked out of the corner of her lips and stained her
dress.
Emani was kneeling on the ground, her eyes bloodshot as she cursed, “Those righteous snobs! When I was famous, everyone
came to bask in my light. Now that I’m down and out, no one is willing to even help me!”
Her assistant listened without saying a word. Things had always been this way. Everyone in the showbiz happened to be a snob.
She then directed her next words to Emani, “Emani, it’s required that I take all the clothes, bags and accessories back. All these
items belong to the brand companies, who are asking us to return them.”
“Take them and leave immediately!” Emani glared daggers at her and shouted out loud.
Not only was her reputation destroyed and that she had been abandoned by everyone closest to her, but she also had to pay a
huge penalty. She was about to break down very soon.
The assistant left Emani’s place with the clothes and other things in her arms. After she closed the door behind her, she looked
at Emani again and what she saw made her very sad. It was like she was looking at a rose that had just withered.
