I Want a Divorce Every Day, But the Superstar Says No-Chapter 94: Liking Someone Doesn’t Make You Inferior
No matter how these two try to shirk responsibility, Isla Firth cannot escape being charged with instigation.
The other two friends of Isla Firth feared getting implicated, so when Quiana Sutton passed by, they slightly lowered their heads, hoping to reduce their presence.
The police promptly took Isla Firth and Victor Miller away, which alarmed the hotel, as the theft of the Universal Card was due to their improper safekeeping.
Staff were restructured immediately, and after the adjustments, Lantine Hotel became the most reputable hotel in the Capital City industry.
Of course, that’s all in the past.
...
The director worried Quiana Sutton might be affected by the incident with Isla Firth and Victor Miller today, so he gave her a day off.
Though he didn’t really believe that.
Considering how Quiana Sutton calmly beat up Victor Miller at the door and justified it as self-defense, subsequently sending him to jail as a cold-blooded person — it’s hard to believe she’d be in poor condition.
But since Mr. Landon had given instructions, the director dared not disobey.
With a conciliatory smile: "Miss Sutton, how about resting on set today and shooting others’ scenes for now?"
She had no objections.
Simon Storm didn’t stay at the hotel yesterday; he only heard about this incident after arriving on set.
His face was furious, his voice harsh and intense:
"Those two deserve to die."
A sudden voice inserted:
"Uncle, no need to worry, those two will face the consequences."
Simon Storm glanced with cold indignation at Durrell Landon, who had appeared beside him, his expression growing chillier:
"I don’t deserve to be called uncle."
He subtly blamed him for letting Quiana Sutton encounter such an incident.
Durrell Landon handed Simon Storm a USB drive and spoke gently: "Would Uncle like to take a look?"
Simon Storm’s gaze fell on the USB drive: "What’s this?"
"The surveillance footage from this morning."
Simon Storm took it without hesitation, but added firmly:
"Durrell Landon, taking this doesn’t mean I’ve accepted you, I won’t acknowledge your identity right now."
Durrell Landon chuckled lightly: "Then I’ll try hard to earn Uncle’s acknowledgment that I am Cece’s only husband."
Simon Storm snorted coldly but said nothing more.
Both their gazes swept over to Quiana Sutton, who was basking quietly under the shade nearby.
Unintentionally, their stern expressions softly dissipated.
...
Miranda White now seemed like a newly-hatched chick, developing an attachment, and went to Quiana Sutton after finishing her scene, carefully asking: "Miss Sutton, could I call you Sister Cece in the future?"
Quiana Sutton pinched her brow slightly, wanting just a quiet rest.
Before she could respond, Joseph Grant hurried over after filming, trying to hang around Quiana Sutton.
Seeing Miranda White monopolizing Quiana Sutton and blocking him, he was displeased.
"She’s not yours alone, why can’t I get close?"
Miranda White earnestly declared: "Just because I like her more than you do. Even if you do get the person, you’ll tire of them in less than three months, but I never will."
Joseph Grant: "..."
He never considered having so many ex-girlfriends problematic since it was always consensual, and he treated them generously, never speaking ill of them, leading him to believe switching girlfriends every three months was normal.
Yet, hearing Miranda White voice this issue before Quiana Sutton, he suddenly felt discomfort.
He used to be a jerk, but that didn’t mean he couldn’t genuinely like someone.
"If that’s the case, let’s see who really likes her more."
Miranda White: "How do you suggest we compete?"
Joseph Grant: "OK! Magazine’s cover with her, link opens at six tonight; whoever buys more proves their affection."
"No problem, I accept the challenge."
The magazine link allows one ID to purchase a single copy — buying more requires mobilizing more people to purchase.
Joseph Grant immediately forwarded the link to his buddies.
[Guys, stop sleeping, hurry up and help me buy the magazine, I’ll treat later.]
His buddies sent three question marks, eventually one couldn’t help asking,
[Joseph Grant, if your account is hacked, blink twice.]
Joseph Grant furiously replied:
[I’m fine, hurry and buy the magazine.]
[Also, not only should you buy, forward the link to your subordinates to let them buy too.]
[This is abusing power, if your dad knows, he’ll skin you alive.]
[My dad should be glad I’ve finally found someone willing to settle down.]
His buddies were shocked again.
Joseph Grant used to directly give money to girlfriends; it’s the first time seeing this magazine purchase tactic.
They opened the link, realized vaguely the cover person seemed to be the one who previously saved Joseph Grant during a variety event.
They vaguely recalled the photos were trending not long ago, the designer publicly asked Quiana Sutton to model after being mocked — and overnight, she gained hundreds of thousands of followers.
Of course, it was once ridiculed as the studio buying fans, not genuine ones.
This led to a wager online —
betting on magazine sales of Evelyn Windsor vs. Quiana Sutton within minutes.
However, most believed Evelyn Windsor would win.
With Evelyn Windsor having been in the industry for years, she has many loyal fans, while Quiana Sutton’s fans are mostly appearance-based.
Magazine sales traditionally rely on loyal fans’ willingness.
They didn’t expect Joseph Grant had become Quiana Sutton’s loyal fan.
A few teased:
[You’ve really changed, from predatory to gentle? Start adopting a pure approach?]
Joseph Grant ignored them, only replied:
[If done well, I’ll treat; if not, I’ll settle accounts with you.]
...
Miranda White also forwarded the link to her friends, asking them to help buy the magazine.
Her friends were equally shocked:
[Blink twice if you’re kidnapped.]
[Didn’t you say you disliked Quiana Sutton the most? And now you’re actively pushing her magazine sales?]
Miranda White became anxious:
[Don’t mention this again, from now on, I’m her loyal fan.]
They were curious:
[In a day on set with her, she made you a loyal fan? Does she have some magic?]
Miranda White couldn’t pinpoint the magic, only recalling how captivated she was when Quiana Sutton defended her, unable to look away — Joseph Grant never gave her that feeling.
Suddenly, she found Joseph Grant a bit foolish, his infatuation blinded him earlier, now wishing to erase that dark history.
[Anyway, I beg you guys, I’ll treat you dinner later...]
