Chapter 358: Chapter 358: Official Girlfriend
She initially just wanted to see if there was any recent news.
However, the trending topic she scrolled to was "Justin Battleson and Charlotte," and she clicked in to see that photo.
She violently threw the red wine glass in her hand onto the floor.
The blood-red liquid reflected Evelyn Curtis’s distorted face.
Her eyes were blood-shot as she glared at her mobile.
The photo was not very clear, though Charlotte’s face was not captured, just by looking at the woman’s figure Evelyn could tell it was Charlotte.
However, the post stated: the two had gone to the BK Hotel together after having coffee.
There were also photos of Justin going in and coming out of the BK.
However, what they didn’t know was, when Justin went in, he was there to find Charlotte who was stopped by Jordan, naturally they came out together.
In the dressing room, items on the vanity table were flung everywhere.
Evelyn Curtis had a pale face, and her eyes were full of anger.
She spoke through gritted teeth: "I warned that bitch long ago; she dared not heed the warning! Now she has made such a mess, and the whole entertainment circle is laughing at me."
The Evelyn Curtis in the mirror was disheveled, with a fierce expression, a far cry from the kind and gentle image she portrayed in front of the cameras.
Lucy shyly watched Evelyn Curtis from the corner, too scared to approach.
Every time something like this happened, she was always the one to bear the brunt.
She was just a small assistant, earning the lowest wage, doing the most thankless jobs.
"What are you staring at, come clean up," Evelyn Curtis randomly threw a makeup compact, hitting Lucy square in the face as she sharply ordered.
Lucy subtly rubbed her bruised forehead and ran up to clean up, her face filled with resignation.
Looking at the submissive Lucy, Evelyn was reminded of her desperate acts in front of Justin.
The angrier she thought, the more she wanted to smash her phone into Lucy the next second.
The dressing room door was pushed open with a "click."
Manager Grace Williams walked in with a notice.
She frowned as she took a look around the messy room. After seeing the furious Evelyn Curtis, she understood the situation.
She calmly signaled Lucy to leave and glanced at Evelyn Curtis with a sense of resignation.
Grace Williams spoke coldly: "Just because of a trending topic, you’ve made such a mess. Luckily, Lucy is one of us. Otherwise, if someone with ulterior motives saw you like this, you’d have to deal with all the ensuing scandals."
Evelyn held her breath, not daring to lash out in front of Grace Williams. She swallowed hard.
All she could say was "Sister Lily" without any follow-up.
"Come over here." Grace Williams pulled out a chair for Evelyn to sit on.
Grace made her look at herself in the mirror, stooped down and whispered in her ear.
"Evelyn, as the artist I brought up, you should understand how the entertainment industry works. Regardless of whether Mr. Battleson acknowledges it or not, you are supposed to be his legitimate girlfriend."
"Whether the news is true or not, it doesn’t really matter."
Hearing this, Evelyn lost her cool once again.
"Doesn’t matter? This topic is trending heavily, how can it not matter?"
Seeing Evelyn like this, Grace Williams only thought her as dumbfounded as a pig.
"If I were you, I would stay calm right now, control my emotions, and not lose my temper."
"I’ve scheduled a public announcement for you. You need to post on your social media later. The more unfavorable the environment, the more you need to show your strength. Only in this way, can the public side with you."
As she said this, Grace straightened up and began to help adjust Evelyn’s curls.
