''Listen to me. Here in Janice, we don't treat people based on what or who they are. Right now, you're just interns, and you don't have to act so arrogant to your colleagues. If you want to be bossy, then you might as well go and work for your rich parents. I don't care which family you're from and I don't usually meddle in people's affairs but you two really bring out the worse impression in me. if you continue this way, then, I can assure you that it won't be for long before you leave Janice''

''Amy, we…''

''Leave my office'' Amy cut Dindin short and turned her face away. The two turned and left the office.

Matt stood outside the cloakroom waiting for Lucy as she went in to change. When they door opened and Lucy walked out he straightened himself and asked, ''are you alright? did you get hurt anywhere?''

''No, it was just a little hot but I am fine. Thank you and I'm sorry that you had to see that.

Matt smiled. ''It fits you well. You and Amy are the same size. That's a relief''

''Are you not going to ask me what happened or do you believe what those two said about me?'' Lucy pouted her lips and looked at him innocently.

''I don't need to ask. You were bullied and I feel bad that I couldn't help you'' Matt said and stepped closer to her. he tugged back her wet hair into her ear and she blushed.

''You did help me. You brought me to change and you waited for me'' Lucy said bashfully.

''Are you always bullied by them?''

Lucy shook her head. ''No, do I look weak to you?''

''No, you don't. And you did well by pushing her onto the floor. next time, aim for her ankles, it will hurt even more if you hit her there and she falls. It will be better if you can beat her when she is alone. Just hit her enough to teach her a lesson but be careful to leave out her vital points. I will take care of the CCTV for you'' Matt said and winked at her. Lucy looked at him and smiled.

''I didn't peek you for someone who would say such a thing? You look so principled''

''I don't usually say that but, you're my girlfriend, remember? I have to be a supportive boyfriend. I don't beat women but I will support my girlfriend if she wants to beat her fellow woman''

''Oh, I see'' Lucy chuckled and her stomach growled making her blush.

''You must be hungry?''

''I didn't eat before those girls confronted me''

''Let's go. We will eat together''

Eunice walked into the Seven Stars hotel hurriedly and stopped in front of the receptionist.

''Where is your manager?'' she asked the receptionist in an impatient tone. She was angry and felt frustrated. The number of the manager that her assistant had given her went through but no one answered her numerous calls. She was here to find answers for herself.

The receptionist seemed to have recognised her so she replied in a professional manner, ''I'm sorry Ma'am but the manager is in a meeting right now. He can't meet with you''

''I saw his car outside when I was coming in. did he tell you to send me off with such a lousy excuse? If he had the guts to cancel my wedding reception, then why doesn't he have the guts to meet me and explain things clearly. I am Eunice Gardener; does he not know the consequences of cancelling me?'' Eunice said loudly making people look at them.

At the hallway leading to the reception, Mikael walked out of the elevator with the said manager of the hotel. They were chatting when they heard Eunice's loud voice and turned towards the reception.

''What is going on here?'' Mikael was the first to ask when they got there. The receptionist turned and greeted Mikael before she started to explain the situation.

''President Sun, Miss Eunice here wants to meet the manager but I told her he was in a meeting but, she didn't want to believe me. she started to create a scene here.

Eunice's eyes lit up when she saw Mikael. She straightened herself and stretched forth her hand. Mikael Sun, I am Eunice Gardener. We almost acted in a drama together before it didn't go through''

Assistant He who was behind them got in the middle of them, preventing Eunice from shaking Mikael's hand. His actions made Eunice's smile turn stiff and she took her hand away.

''Miss Nelson, I already informed your secretary that we wouldn't be hosting your wedding anymore. And we will pay all the compensation there is. I already issued a check of the double of the amount you paid to our hotel. Why are you here to create trouble when we are all busy people?'' the manager asked as he looked at Eunice with an unpleasant gaze.

''What are you saying? The wedding is just two weeks away. All my guests know that we are having the wedding here. May I know why you suddenly changed your mind? There must be a reason why you suddenly decided to cancel me''

Mikael suddenly chuckled making her turn to look at him. he looked up, meeting her gaze and asked, ''Eunice Gardener, right? So, you're the one who bullied my sister in law?''

''Your sister in law? I don't understand what you're talking about'' Eunice seemed pretty confused for a moment.

''Natalia Jun. You spoke harshly to her and even condemned my late brother. What gave you the guts to do that to her?''

Eunice chuckled. She couldn't believe she was answering questions about Natalie Jun. ''Natalie is my best friend's daughter. She did something and I just scolded her a little. Did she say that I bullied her? All I did was to scold her a little and she came to tattle to you?'' Eunice asked proudly. Until now, she still didn't see anything wrong with what she did. She was unrepentant.

''No, but, she is my family member and you had no right to scold her. From what I know, she has no relationship with the Song family, so scolding her on behind of your best friend is ridiculous and I find it offensive. No one has the right to bully or scold Natalie. Worst case scenario, she should be the one doing the scolding and bullying''

''What?'' Eunice's face turned ashen as she looked at Mikael. She couldn't believe there was such a person in the world.

''I am the one who cancelled your engagement with this hotel''

''Why?'' Eunice clenched her fist tightly. She was trying her best to keep her cool.

''Because this place is mine and you are paying for bullying my family. Do you understand it now? Oh, right, I forgot something else. The chef, designer, and the wedding planner were all stopped by me'' Mikael smirked and walked away.

Eunice's legs turned jelly and she held onto the table to support herself. Her face was pale.

'What just happened here?''

''Miss Eunice, I'm sorry but you have been blacklisted as of now in this hotel'' the manager said and also walked away.

Eunice shook her head. she couldn't believe what just happened. ''What? Hey!'' she screamed.

At the CEO's office of the Empire Entertainment building, Lin Yan sat on Luis' laps. She caressed him as they chatted.

''Luis, I heard a contract came from Sun Group? They are looking for a spokesperson''

''Yes. I already asked Ana arrange a meeting with the CEO. I will go with you when is settled''

''You mean, I can go with you and meet with Mikael Sun myself?''

''Sure, my love''

''Luis, you're really my sunshine. This time around, I really owe you. Now that Alice is gone, I can relax because I won't have her sabotaging my every move'' Lin Yan snuggled on his neck, exposing her cleavage to him. her eyes held a sinister thought behind it. Something Luis could never have thought of. She was only using him to get to the real deal.

Her main target has always been Mikael Sun. they have never worked together but since she saw him at the Global City Awards where he presented her with the best supporting actress award, she had started to covert him for herself. She wanted him and now that she was going to be their spokesperson; she was going to get a chance to be together with him. There will be more opportunities for them to be together in the future. The future was starting to get brighter for her.

''Have you finished the shoot with Your Beauty?'' Luis asked and kissed her face.

''Yes. But, I heard that Janice is about to proceed with their last round of interview for the company's spokesperson. What are you going to do about Alice?''

''Yes. Alice already passed the second round, but, since she is no longer a part of Empire, I was thinking of letting you go in her place''

''But, didn't she go there without the company's intervention?''

''Yes, but, that bitch needs to learn some lessons''

''Mm, I'm up for that'' Lin Yan smirked she was determined to destroy Alice and take everything that she had. She had always been jealous of Alice and how much she had gained throughout the years.
