Chapter 131
Chapter: 131 She turned to look at Adrian and forced an apologetic smile. She hadn't intended to meet anyone from the BRD Group, especially Adrian, of all people. @
The awful scene from that day was still vivid in her mind. Even though no one held her accountable for it, she did tase their boss. She was still worried. If it hadn’t been for Jasper, she would have gotten as far away from these people as possible.
Ariana paused, looking at Adrian. She expected Adrian would at least be polite enough to break the ice and ease the awkwardness, despite the conflict they had between’ them.
However, to her surprise, Adrian barely glanced at her and strode off quickly as if she wasn’t there at all.
Hidden amid the crowd, Jasper breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this interaction. When the others left, he approached Ariana and taunted her, “Well, well. It's obvious he wants nothing to do with you now. | told you to keep a low profile. You know Adrian’s stature. He was playing you. When he finally got tired of you, he dumped you and got engaged to another woman. You should have been smarter. You should have seen this coming.”
Ariana pretended she didn’t hear him and remained silent, ignoring Jasper.
She did feel a little depressed. It seemed she was on the BRD Group’s blacklist for tasing Holden. She was afraid that it might affect Sarah’s career negatively-all because of her.
On the other side, Adrian had walked out of the studio as quickly as he could. Phew, that was close. He nearly reached out to steady Ariana when she fell, but fortunately, he managed to restrain himself. @
His expression darkened when the ridiculous rumor about him and Ariana crossed his mind. He had no idea which idiot made it up.
For the past several days, Theodore had been in an irritable mood and had been picking on him.
If he didn’t keep his distance from Ariana, he could end up losing his position. He’d better stay well away from her in the future, lest his boss got jealous and took it out on him again.
Josh followed closely behind Adrian. He observed Adrian’s heavy expression and could only assume his conjecture had been correct. @
Adrian wanted Sarah to be on the show. Josh didn’t know the reason why, however, until he heard the rumors that were circulating.
The entertainment industry was complicated, and sometimes one had to get their hands dirty. It was a normal occurrence to discover someone had traded sexual favors to get what they wanted. @
He had underestimated the manipulation of Sarah’s agent, who managed to get Adrian into bed in a short time. @
But judging from the brief exchange just now, it seemed the agent was out of Adrian's favor. Had Adrian truly abandoned her? Rumors were flying and becoming more and more outlandish. It was hard to tell what was true or not. After considering it for a while, Josh decided he had to obtain more information before he came to a conclusion. @
When they arrived at the meeting room, Josh decided to take action. He glanced at Adrian and asked tentatively, “Should we focus our attention on Sarah on the show?” @
Ariana was Sarah’s agent. If Adrian agreed to this suggestion, it would mean he did have feelings for Ariana.
Josh considered his question and was quite pleased that he thought of it.
Adrian paused and looked sideways at Josh who had a cunning look on his face. Adrian could see through him instantly.
He smiled wryly and replied, “There’s no need. We don’t play favorites.”
Theodore had ordered him not to make any exceptions.
