Chapter 988: Chapter 988: The Same Goal_1
They all gathered around directly.
As for Heather Harrison and Ginny, they sighed with relief, as long as the fire didn’t spread to them, anything was fine.
Just as Sunny Lee prepared her wording and intended to continue speaking, another bright and beautiful face suddenly appeared on the camera.
Facing the numerous flashing lights, Lucy Taylor responded as usual, her tone steady, "The speculation about ostracism is just conjecture by those with ulterior motives. Hannah isolating the whole group by herself, don’t you think that’s laughable?"
Christopher Lee quickly agreed, "Yeah, yeah, it’s really far-fetched. Hannah is very nice, you know."
She smiled sweetly, her words immediately becoming more persuasive.
Sunny Lee, on the other hand, felt incredibly awkward, watching the two of them control the situation, her gaze constantly lingering on Christopher Lee.
What came to mind, however, was Tiffany Lynch’s words, "Look at you, how pitiful you are. Whether it’s Lucy Taylor or Christopher Lee, whoever gets involved with Hannah Winter fares well. Tell me, if you hadn’t fallen out with Hannah Winter before, you might have become famous by now. It’s all self-inflicted, you deserve it."
Outsiders might not know, but their group members were well aware that Christopher Lee’s first script came recommended by Hannah.
If it hadn’t been for her fallout with Hannah that gave Christopher Lee the opportunity, that role would have been hers.
And now, she would be the one in the spotlight.
Sunny Lee lowered her head, her gaze fell, lips tightly bitten.
As the interview neared its end, someone in the crowd shouted, "Tiffany Lynch is here," and most of the reporters hustled over.
Finally, this place cleared out.
Only then did Lucy Taylor turn her head to look at Sunny Lee standing behind her, her eyes already devoid of previous anger and disappointment.
Perhaps it was because of the experiences she’d had during this time, having realized how precious the opportunity to stand on the stage is, she didn’t wish to waste any more effort on a friendship that had already been lost.
But to Sunny Lee, she still wanted to say, "Hannah used to treat you well. No matter what, you shouldn’t have slandered her so carelessly."
Sunny Lee clenched her fingers and dared not look up, only sneering back, "What have I slandered her for?"
Christopher Lee frowned slightly, probably not expecting such a drastic change in Sunny Lee since they last met, giving off a rather dark and negative vibe.
Lucy Taylor didn’t find it strange, but she felt somewhat sighful in her heart, "You know what you mean, but netizens are right on one thing, you use the money Hannah shared with you for all sorts of trips, and then turn around to smear and insinuate against her, that behavior is truly disgusting."
"I am disgusting?" Sunny Lee looked up, her eyes moist and pointed at Christopher Lee, envy in her eyes, "Why don’t you say she’s disgusting? If I hadn’t had a fallout with Hannah, how could she have had the chance to get involved? Isn’t it all about taking advantage of Hannah Winter’s popularity and traffic to want a piece of the action?"
Christopher Lee forcefully retorted, "What does it matter what my motivation was? At least I haven’t done anything to betray Hannah. Not now, not ever. You’re just jealous."
Jealousy.
Those two simple words completely shattered Sunny Lee’s defenses.
But how could she not be jealous?
Hannah Winter was so lucky, there were plenty of talented and good-looking people, but it was she who became famous, it was she who was adored by the movie star.
Why?
