Chapter 76
Gina’s POV
I had already agreed to the terinination of my contract. Two days had passed, and things for me were not getting any better. All kinds of bad news keep coming.
I finally couldn’t bear to stay at home anymore. Today, I came to my studio with a sullen face.
After I became a star, I asked Harley to help me set up a studio. Of course, not all the employees were werewolves. I walked into the studio and saw all my assistants sitting there sighing.
“What’s wrong?” My heart sank. I had a bad feeling.
Harley walked out of his office with a bunch of contracts in his hand. “Gina, all your trips have been called off. And the talk show you were supposed to be on today had a last-minute change.”
“What? Then who will be the guest?” I felt a little unsteady on my feet, and I couldn’t help but hold the wall beside me. Coldness penetrated my heart. I tried to look at him with widened eyes. “Tell me!”
“Lorelei Pope.” Harley said.
I knew her. She belonged to Sunset Pack She set foot in showbiz because she saw the benefits I brought to my pack after I became a star.
But Blake didn’t treat Sunset Pack differently. Lorelei wasn’t very famous. She buttered me up at the mating gathering held in the Shadow Forest.
“Lorelei Pope? She is just a nobody. And she replaces me? Isn’t this simply a slap in my face? Are they trying to tell everyone that I am not even a B-list star? This is too much. Fuck! I want to kill them all!
Those bastards!” I swept everything on the desk next to me on the floor angrily, looking like I was about to eat someone alive.
“Why? Why did you do this to me? You made me one in a million and then destroyed me. Why?” I was miserable. I couldn’t stand it. I crouched by the wall, burying my head in my hands. I was about to lose it.
I was once a female star whose popularity was in full swing. When I was enjoying all the praises and applause, suddenly, everything was gone. It was unbearable. I even wish I were dead.
“Why don’t you tell me all the bad news? It won’t make a difference anyway.” I lowered my head, my voice numb.
Harley frowned and said with concern, “Gina, are you alright? Do you want to go in and get some rest? We’ll talk later.”
“No need. If I close my eyes now, I can see how miserable I will be. Harley, can you hug me? Please?” I looked up at his face in front of me. I suddenly felt that Harley was nice enough. I needed his hug.
It occurred to me that five years ago, I had a slight crush on Harley. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
When I found out that Catherine had a one-night stand with another man, I even thought about telling Harley about that. I wanted to know how much Harley would loathe Catherine after knowing that.
But Catherine was banished from the pack after that night. And the person who slept with her was King Blake.
Later, Elena secretly told me to replace Catherine with myself. I did, and King Blake made me a star. Then I forgot to tell Harley about Catherine’s one-night stand and didn’t get to know his thought.
Later on, I became more and more famous.
Besides, after I came across King Blake, I realized that no werewolf could surpass him
Besides, after I came across King Blake, I realized that no werewolf could surpass him.
Being King Blake’s lover would be good enough for me. But I could only regard him as my secret crush. Even so, my feelings for Harley had all gone.
I was pushed into a corner now, and it was Harley who was by my side and cared about me. It was only now that I found out that I used to have feelings for him. But later, I changed. My status blinded me. I was all over myself, and I forgot about it all.
Harley saw tears rolling down my cheeks. He looked like he was sad.
I hugged him tightly the moment he crouched down.
There was a bit of embarrassment on his face, and I found that he gestured to the stunned assistants next to us to ask them out.
The assistants were smart enough to go out quickly.
But as soon as they went out, one of them began to mock coldly outside the door,
I heard someone say, “Well, well. She did this to herself. Karma is a bitch indeed.”
“You’re right. She used to boss us around like we were dogs. No one will serve her anymore! Anyway, I’ll quit. This is a dead end.”
“Count me in. Who the hell can stand her bad temper?”
“She has reached an impasse now. And she still clings to Harley. Damn bitch! Poor Harley!”
“I think Harley was just comforting her symbolically. She used to throw tantrums at him all the time.”
“I hope that Harley will turn his back on her and leave her high and dry. I’m interested in seeing what kind of desperate moves she can make. Do you know that she used to point to my nose and call me useless?”
I trembled with anger at what they said, but I no longer had the strength to go out and quarrel with them.
I could only hold Harley tightly by his neck and cry out in the room, “Harley, what should I do? I’m at my wit’s end now. Can you help me?”
“Gina, I’m afraid you have to face it. This is no longer something that can be solved.”
“I’m sure there’s still a way. Didn’t you say last time that someone would support me if that was what I wanted? But I still don’t want to do that. No…” I cried sadly.
Harley felt the same, so, he continued to persuade me, “Gina, why don’t you take the opportunity to quit showbiz? It would still be better than being looked down upon.”
“I can’t talk myself into it. I like the sense of accomplishment that showbiz brings me. Harley, I don’t want to quit just like this.” I was telling the truth. speaking from my heart. I still wanted to make a comeback in showbiz.
Harley sighed helplessly. I knew these assistants would leave me sooner or later, but Harley wouldn’t. He was the Gamma of our pack. If I couldn’t become the Lycan Luna, being the Gamma’s mate would also be acceptable for me.
“Gina, I’ll get you a glass of water.” Harley suddenly pulled my hands away and stood up.
“No! I don’t want to drink anything now. Harley, do you know? I used to have a crush on you. You can tell, right?” I suddenly said something that made him tense.
