CHAPTER 77: AN ALLERGY TO THE RESCUE
Georgina looked at the crowd that had gathered due to the little girl’s scream and she just could not believe what was happening to her.
How do I end up with this act? Georgina questioned herself but she decided to brace herself because she knew she was going to need it
She was being set up by an upcoming actress? That was really a joke.
A joke that she does not know if she can laugh it out.
“Oh my goodness Jessie what happened to you,” Manager Bee asked, hurrying herself to the soaked girl.
I looked at her pitiful acts and it was really laughable that a caring Manager like her could betray her artist.
“What happened here Gina?” director Reynold asked and I noticed from his voice that he is mad but how am I going to explain to him that I also do not know?
The people around looked at Georgina that was standing not believing what was happening around her and they all looked at her with a look of disbelief not believing that she could stoop so low to bully an upcoming artist.
No one even waited for me to say something before they started judging me. Sinner judging a sinner.
“I know you are already big Gina but bullying upcoming artists like this is a preposterous act and maybe because you get married to a big shot that is why you think you are unstoppable, “Manager Bee says and I saw that what she says is already having an effect on people and I know that is exactly what she wanted to achieve.
She was going to get them to have a bad impression of her and too bad it was working because Georgina could already hear whispers from the people around.
But I would not say that it is whispers because I can hear them clearly, I mocked in my head.
“Can you please give me an explanation about what is happening here?” director Reynold asked again and I sighed heavily about what I am going to say.
I also do not know what is going on but who is going to believe me?
“I seriously do not know, “I say and hear surprised gasps from people and I know they are going to find it unbelievable.
Someone was pointing accusing hands at her but she was playing innocent.
“And you expect us to believe that?” producer Pedro asked and I know he does not believe it one bit because after he knew I was married to Bradley he has been acting indifferent towards me.
It was not my fault that I married a big shot.
“I seriously do not know how to explain this because I also heard her scream and then I saw her soaked with a strawberry shake but does not it also sound absurd to you, “I said and the whole crowd was silent looking at me, and also towards the crying girl.
Who were they going to believe? Her or the crying Cinderella?
“So you mean Jessie soaked herself with strawberry shake to implicate you”manager Bee asked and I nodded my head.
“Are you saying you did not do this?” director Reynold asked and I nodded my head. It looks like I will keep nodding my head if that was going to make them believe that I did not do it.
“Jessie, can you explain what happened, “producer Pedro asked glaring at me facing the girl that was on the floor and I sighed knowing I should not bother to waste my energy because the girl was a serpent.
“I walked up to her to tell her that she is my biggest idol but I got insulted because she says I am an upcoming artist and that I do not deserve to even be on the same set with her and she threw the drink she was taking at me,” she said, sobbing in between maybe to make her story plausible and I facepalmed myself on how her acting is good.
After the victim story, I do not think the people care about my side of the story because I can see them casting disgusting glances at me and some of them were whispering among themselves but I would not call that whispers because I can hear it.
“Did you admit that you threw the drink at her?!” the director yelled in between because he was pissed buy I could equally relate no one would want that kind of interaction on his set.
“That was not my drink, “I say because that was the only thing I could say at the moment and I wondered where Kira went.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“Then did I throw her the drink?” producer Pedro asked roasting me with his eyes I saw the Jessie girl and manager Bee exchange a look and I know these two set me up.
How was she going to clear herself up?
“She is telling the truth”I heard Bernard’s voice and I saw Kira walking behind them. After she saw the mess she immediately rushed to my side apologizing for coming late.
“What do you mean Bernard?” director Reynold asked and I also looked at him wondering what he meant by that.
“Georgina is allergic to strawberries so, why will someone allergic to strawberries have a strawberry shake with her, “Bernard says and the whole room fell into silence. I facepalmed myself on how I could forget that.
I am really allergic to strawberries but I forgot about it and then it clicked if I could forget that I am allergic to strawberry how could Bernard know of it.
“But how did you know I am allergic to strawberries Bernard,” I asked, facing him and I felt an emotion flash through his eyes but he was quick to mask it…..
What was that? I thought in my head because I have never seen anything that much complicated on Bernard’s face before but an allergy saved me?
