In the buzzing world of the entertainment industry, rumors had long swirled that Ramona's meteoric rise to stardom wasn't without the help of some shady dealings. But Kala, with her own history as a fan favorite, never bought into the gossip. She knew all too well how vicious whispers could trail a successful woman.
However, when she overheard Ramona trash-talking Vivienne, the scion of a respected entertainment dynasty, her blood boiled. Kala's patience snapped as Ramona's sneering remarks about the Brooks family hit too close to home. Before she knew it, a sharp retort lashed out from her lips.
Ramona's face cycled through a spectrum of anger, embarrassment, and indignation.
Kala, her own temper flaring, nearly apologized, but the words froze on her tongue as she stared into Ramona's twisted expression of fury.
"Oh, you've really done it now, Kala!" Ramona seethed, her delicate features contorting.
No wonder Kala and Vivienne were buddies-birds of a feather flock together!
"You want to slander me? You're going to pay for that!" Ramona yelled inside when her hand shot out, grabbing Kala's wrist and attempting to hurl her down the trailer steps.
"Ramona!" The urgency in her agent's voice was clear as he raced to intervene.
