After Jenna and Kamryn left the police office, the director called them many times, asking them to return to the set.

Although Jenna signed the mediation agreement at the police office, she clearly didn’t want to fulfill her promise. She was leaving with the excuse that she needed to do her makeup for shooting.

Seeing that, Kamryn cleared her throat and reminded Jenna, “Did you forget something, Jenna?”

Jenna looked back and saw Kamryn’s eyes burning with determination. Obviously, Kamryn didn’t want Jenna to go!

Jenna looked around and saw a lot of people nearby.

She walked over to Kamryn and pulled her aside.

“What exactly do you want?”

“It’s simple. Apologize to me in front of the entire

and

www pay me for my emotional damage as per the mediation agreement.”

Jenna snorted disdainfully and said, “You only want 4,000 dollars. So that’s what you’re worth. How about this? I’ll give you 20 thousand dollars, and I won’t apologize.”

“An apology is inevitable! Otherwise, I’ll resort to the law and the press.”

“You say you’re gonna sue me for damage to your reputation, and I’ll take that. But the press? You think those reporters are gonna listen to a nobody like you? Or do you think the public will take your word or mine?”

Kamryn said with a smile, “The press won’t take my word, but I’m sure they’ll be very interested in your family scandal. I don’t mind telling them how you went from being a mistress to Mrs. Sexton.”

Jenna looked daggers at Kamryn.

But there was no fear in Kamryn’s eyes.

A moment later, Jenna snorted and said through gritted teeth”

After that, she told Mareli to gather the crew.

The crew was waiting for Jenna to shoot. She had some say on the

set.

After a while, everyone was there.

In front of everyone, Jenna said reluctantly, “There was an accident today. I’m sure you’ve noticed that I’ve just been summoned by the police. Because of some misunderstanding, I said something hurtful to my assistant Kamryn. I sincerely apologize to her here!”

As Jenna spoke, she bowed deeply to Kamryn.

Jenna had a brilliant way of handling a PR crisis.

She either didn’t make a fool of herself, or she apologized gracefully and “sincerely“.

Those who weren’t involved didn’t understand what was going on, but what they saw was a big star swallowing her pride and apologizing to her assistant for a minor mistake.

Jenna was an A–lister actress, but she apologized to a

nobody in front so many people.

No one cared what Jenna had done wrong. All they knew was that the assistant had made the big star bow to

“Oh my god, Jenna’s so nice. She apologized to her assistant so sincerely!”

“She’s not eye candy. She not only has good acting skills but also a great personality!”

“She deserves to be Mrs. Sexton. She’s well–educated!”

Jenna smiled contentedly.

her.

She had a quiet smile on the outside but a sneer on the inside. “Kamryn, you thought you were gonna embarrass me by making me apologize to you in front of all these people?

They’ll only praise how well–mannered I am as a superstar.

No one will care what I apologized for.

No one cares!”

Soon, people started gossiping about Kamryn.

“Who is this assistant?”

“I’ve seen her before. I think she’s worked

“The imitations nowadays really look like the real ones! If we’re not careful, we’ll be fooled by the fake!”

Kamryn heard them talking in whispers.

Their mocking, sarcastic comments jarred on her nerves.

Right at that moment, Mareli suddenly rushed up to Jenna and said to her, “Jenna, you have a visitor!”

“Who is it?”

“Your dad!”

The director’s face suddenly lit up at that. “It’s Mr. Ramsey!”

Kamryn stiffened with shock.

Footsteps sounded behind her, followed by a familiar voice she hadn’t heard in a long time. “Jenna.”

He called Jenna affectionately and tenderly. His sonorous voice was simply the epitome of paternal love.

Once upon a time, he had called Kamryn the way he called Jenna.

Kamryn turned around and looked the middle–aged man straight in the e Bruno Ramsey.

The one who married another woman not long after her mother passed away;

The one who cruelly kicked her out of the house.

The man pretended to love and respect her mother, but in fact, he had been cheating on her for years. He had a daughter about her age.

When Bruno saw Kamryn, he just glanced

It was the first time they had seen each other since she left home.

When they met again, they were like strangers. She could read his mind from his eyes. Apparently, in front of outsiders, he was reluctant to recognize her and even saw her as a disgrace.

He walked up to Jenna, put his arms around her 5 dersi

“Dad, I’m in the middle of shooting. Don’t disturb my work, okay?”

The director walked up to Bruno and said flatteringly, “Mr. Ramsey, I didn’t get a chance to thank you last time! If you hadn’t made an additional investment, God knows when we could have officially started shooting!”

The TV series had several investors. Before shooting started, one of them broke the contract. When Bruno learned the news, he immediately made an additional investment so that shooting could start on time.

Bruno curled up his lips. “I did it for my daughter’s sake. She begged me. If you have anyone to thank, it’s her!”

Jenna asked Bruno, “Dad, why are you here>”

“Wyatt said you’ve lost a lot of weight on the set lately, and you seldom go back home, so I came to see you!”

Kamryn couldn’t bring herself to listen any longer, so she turned to leave in a hurry.
