Vengeful Hearts Return Novel by Susan Clyde

The next day, Shawn unexpectedly received a call from Claire. He was quite surprised and only understood why she had called after answering it.

Shawn did not like Sarah, especially now when she was being heavily criticized. He was fully aware of how much trouble Sarah was in. Besides, Dylan also disliked her intensely.

Moreover, Sarah still had a contract with another company. If Shawn signed her on, he would have to pay a hefty penalty. Even if they did, her tainted reputation made her a risky investment. Shawn was a businessman, not a philanthropist.

However, it was difficult to refuse Claire’s direct request.

Sensing Shawn’s hesitation, Claire softened her tone. “Shawn, please do this as a favor for me. Don’t worry about the penalty fee. Sarah will take care of it herself. But please give her some extra attention. After all, you and Dylan grew up together as close friends, and Sarah and Dylan are bound to get married eventually.”

Claire’s words made Shawn’s heart sink. He couldn’t understand why Claire insisted on marrying Sarah to Dylan. But given the circumstances, Shawn couldn’t refuse her.

Shawn could only reply, “Claire, I can sign Sarah on, but I can’t guarantee anything beyond that.”

The next morning, major news outlets reported that Sarah had signed with Winter Entertainment. She even held a press conference to announce it. However, within half a day, news broke that Elizabeth, Winter Entertainment’s top actress, was leaving the company.

Two hours later, an insider from Winter Entertainment leaked information claiming Elizabeth had fallen out with Winter Entertainment because she was jealous of Sarah and that Shawn had threatened to blacklist her.

Sat, Aug

Although Audrey knew this wasn’t a big deal for Elizabeth, she still sent her a message. [Are you okay?]

Elizabeth was seemingly not busy and quickly responded: [What Are you going to invite me for a drink?]

Audrey: [Sure, let’s find a place. I’ll keep you company.]

Audrey didn’t know much about Elizabeth and Shawn’s relationship but knew they had been entangled for a long time. Shawn, known for his playful nature, probably wasn’t serious about Elizabeth. It surprised her that they had stayed together for so many years.

Elizabeth agreed readily.

Not being familiar with Northville, Audrey thought for a moment and sent a message to Jessica. [Are you free?]

[Just got back. Want to meet up?] Jessica had just returned from a trip abroad.

[Yes, I’ll send you the address.] Audrey added a GPS location.

Before heading out, Audrey accompanied Brian and put him to bed first.

The three women met at a bar. When Audrey arrived, Jessica and Elizabeth were already there. Raising her eyebrows, Audrey sat opposite them.

“I didn’t expect the famous Python in the underworld to be the celebrated actress in the entertainment industry,” Jessica remarked, raising an eyebrow.

“I was surprised too,” Audrey had always assumed Python was a man.

“Are you really leaving Winter Entertainment?” Audrey asked Elizabeth.

Elizabeth looked at Audrey teasingly. “Yes. Do you have any recommendations for where I should go?”

Elizabeth was always well–informed, which was why Audrey looked for her to help find her brother in the past.

“Star International welcomes you.” Audrey would love to have such a valuable asset in her entertainment company. Losing Elizabeth would be a significant blow to Winter Entertainment.

Elizabeth had already guessed Audrey had a close relationship with Star International. Hearing this, she smiled. “Here’s to our cooperation.”Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Winter Entertainment will be furious.” Jessica couldn’t help but remark, looking at them.

Winter Entertainment had made Elizabeth a star, only for her to end up with a rival company.

“What about you and Shawn?” Audrey asked Elizabeth.

“We broke up.” Elizabeth looked indifferent, showing no signs of sadness.

“Congratulations.” Audrey raised her glass in celebration. Since she couldn’t drink alcohol as she would get drunk easily, she held a glass of soda instead.

“Congratulations on your freedom” Jessica also raised her glass.

“Thanks.” Elizabeth smiled, exuding a lazy yet charming demeanor. Even Jessica, a woman, couldn’t help but cluck her tongue in admiration. With Elizabeth’s alluring looks, it was no wonder why she did so well in the entertainment industry.

The next morning, Star International’s CEO Rafe Moore personally received Elizabeth with his assistant. Photos of their meeting quickly spread online, shocking everyone.

Elizabeth had just faced a blacklist from Winter Entertainment but now she was welcomed by Star International, with the CEO himself receiving her. The news of Elizabeth joining Star International swept across the internet.

Shawn nearly exploded in fury when he heard the news.
