The Million-Dollar Heart

Chapter 743

Vivienne had a rendezvous with Kala at the film set that afternoon.

When Vivienne and Percival arrived, Kala had just wrapped up her scene.

The set was bustling, not a place for quiet talks.

Their agent herded them into a trailer to have some privacy and then excused herself.

"Well, well, well, if it isn't Kala, still shameless as ever, cozying up to Ms. Hawthorne," sneered a voice laced with sarcasm.

Before the trio could even begin their chat, Ramona's mocking tones filled their ears.

The agent, blocked by Jackson at the foot of the trailer, watched as Ramona, swaying her hips, sauntered up the steps, her bewitching eyes scanning Percival.

But the man's gaze remained unflinchingly on Vivienne.

Ramona's face twitched, "Ms. Hawthorne, I thought you were smarter. Keeping a ticking time bomb so close, providing her resources, I guess Mr. Ellington isn't that important to you, is he?"

Vivienne, seated comfortably, didn't bother to stand. She looked towards Kala, "Who is this? You've got such ill-mannered extras on set?"

Before Kala could respond, Percival peeled an orange and handed it to Vivienne, "Showbiz is full of stars throwing their weight around. No surprise there, seeing an ugly duckling like her." Vivienne was known for her ability to infuriate people.

With Percival's help, even if Kala didn't like Ramona, she couldn't help but feel a twinge of sympathy for her.

Why did she have to come at this moment of all time? Against these two, even Scott would be no match.

Ramona? Mere chaff!

as soon as Percival finished his comment, Ramona's face flushed a mix of red and purple, her eyes blazing. "I did it for your own good, Ms. Hawthorne. You ungrateful... How can you talk to me like this? Don't you
