Veronica was ultimately still wary of Olivia, so she pursed her lips and explained, “You’re always flirting with him,
and that makes me uneasy.” “Do you think it’s okay to slander me just because you feel uneasy?!” “I was only
ranting. Must you make a big deal out of it?”
“Why should I be the subject of your ranting? Am I in the wrong when you’re the one talking behind my back?!”
Olivia sneered. “You have some nerve calling him your boyfriend. Just because you two f*cked doesn’t mean he’s
your boyfriend. Has he ever called you his girlfriend?”
Veronica flew into a rage out of humiliation at once. “He might have never called me his girlfriend, but he has never
admitted you’re his either!”
“Do you actually think he’s my type?” Olivia snorted disdainfully. “Call him and tell him to come over now.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNaturally, Veronica wouldn’t do it. Even if Avery were on her side, he couldn’t openly take sides on set either.
After all, he said their relationship was to be kept a secret. Seeing that Veronica remained still, Olivia nodded and
said, ‘If you’re not going to call him, I will”
With that, she pulled her phone out and called Christoff, telling him to come over to Savannah’s green room as
soon as the call went through.
Terrified, Veronica tried to scurry away but was caught by Olivia at once. “Where are you going? Weren’t you acting
tough just moments ago?” “Let go of me!” Veronica struggled.”What’s wrong? Scared that your boyfriend won’t
side with you?”
Christoff entered the green room just then, but before he could make out what had happened, Veronica threw
herself into his arms and whined, saying, “Avery, I wasn’t trying to talk behind Miss Maxwell’s back. Savannah and I
were just talking.”
Much to her dismay, he shoved her away disdainfully and looked toward Olivia, asking, “What’s wrong?”
Olivia glared daggers at him in response. “Your girlfriend here insulted me and said that we flirt with each other all
the time. You’d better clarify who’s the one who won’t take no for an answer now!”
Christoff turned grim in an instant, and his usually grinning lips were now tightly pursed. His gaze, too, was
enveloped in malice, and a terrifying aura surrounded him as well.
“Girlfriend? Whose girlfriend are you? Who are you to insult her?!” Christoff enunciated as he questioned Veronica,
making her apprehensive. She had never seen him so vicious before. She wanted to bury her face in his arms, but
her legs went weak, and she stood frozen in place. “N-No, I didn’t mean it… I-I…” she stammered. “Olivia… She
overheard me-”
However, before she could even finish her words, Christoff clamped her jaw ferociously and sneered. “You sure
know how to flatter yourself. You, my girlfriend? Who do you think you are?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmVeronica tried to explain herself, but her jaw. was literally clamped, so all she could do was keep her mouth agape
silently while bearing the pain of him crushing her jawbone. Tears rolled down her cheeks, and only she knew
whether it was from the pain or sadness.
Meanwhile, Olivia gazed at Veronica and said, “Your boyfriend and I were, are, and will always be in one
relationship-that of enemies. If it bothers you so much that he flirts with every other woman, I’d suggest you keep
him in line and stop him from harassing anyone else. People find him exasperating too!”
With that, she left. As for how Christoff would deal with Veronica, that wasn’t her business. After she left, he shoved
Veronica away, then pulled a handkerchief out and slowly wiped the hand he had clamped Veronica’s jaw with.
Veronica, on the other hand, stood up and latched onto Christoff, apologizing, “I’m sorry, Avery. I didn’t mean to
reveal our relationship.”
