Chapter 41 Severing All Cooperation with the Davis Family
Seeing the rumors spring up everywhere, Mr. Scott looked awkwardly at Ethan.
“I’ll go take a look at the lounge. No one is allowed to go up.” Ethan said coldly.
After that, he left.
Everyone thought that Ethan, as an investor, only cared about the reputation of this film. After all, if this matter spread out, it would have a great impact on the follow-up broadcast of “The Grand World”.
Taylor clenched her fists. “No, I must ruin Kristen’s reputation today.”
“Mr. Wharton, why are you going up alone? This matter concerns Kristen’s innocence. We all believe that she and Mr. Thomas are innocent. If everyone doesn’t see it with their own eyes, we won’t let it go.”
After she had finished gathering her courage, Taylor followed him upstairs. The paparazzi whom Taylor had arranged to mingle with the staff followed behind her.
At this moment, Ethan couldn’t care about anything else. The most important thing right now was Kristen’s safety.
The door to the lounge was locked. Ethan didn’t have time to think before he kicked it open.
Looking over, he saw Kayes lying on the sofa. The loud noise seemed to have woken him up as he asked in confusion, “Mr. Wharton, Mr. Scott, what’s going on?”
Just when the paparazzi were about to take out their phones to take a photo, they were stunned when they saw this scene.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
There was only Kayes in the resting room. Kristen wasn’t there, nor was there any passionate scene.
Mr. Scott asked, “Mr. Thomas, why are you in the lounge? Have you seen Kristen?”
Hearing this, Kayes furrowed his brows and felt puzzled.
“Kristen? I didn’t see her. I drank too much just now and felt a little dizzy. I’ve been sleeping here all the time.”
Taylor didn’t believe her and glared fiercely at Flora. “Didn’t she see Kayes and Taylor enter the lounge with her own eyes? What’s going on? Kayes was drugged, how could he be fine? Where did Kristen go?”
Ethan was also confused and worried. He left to find Kristen. Everyone made way for him. At this moment, a woman came out of the stairs. It was Kristen who was walking slowly in her high heels.
Kristen smiled at him and Ethan let out a breath.
“Mr. Scott, I heard that everyone is looking for me downstairs. What happened?” Kristen asked with a smile and confusion.
“Kristen, where have you been? We’ve been looking for you for a long time.”
“I went to the back garden of the hotel. Sorry, Mr. Scott, what’s wrong?”
Seeing that Kristen had returned safely, Mr. Scott was relieved and told her about the ins and outs of the matter.
When Kayes and Kristen heard this, they felt astonished and shocked.
Kristen stepped forward, looked at the staff card, and said coldly, “You are Lynx Burty, right? When did you see me and Mr. Thomas enter the lounge?”
Faced with Kristen’s questioning, Lynx started to panic.
“I… I, maybe I saw it wrong.”
“Ah, basically all the ladies here are wearing dresses today, except for me. Are you trying to tarnish our reputation?”
Lynx clenched her sleeve tightly, and according to what Flora told her earlier, she said, “Yes, I intentionally framed you. I don’t like you, I hate you, and I want you to lose all standing and reputation.”
Upon hearing this, everyone began to discuss.
How could a hotel staff dare to frame her just because one did not like a person? People guessed that Lynx must have been ordered by someone to do so. The matter behind this was definitely not so simple. As for the mastermind, everyone looked at Taylor… she was the one who wanted to go upstairs just now.
“Call the police. Send her to the police station for investigation,” Ethan said coldly.
At this point, the matter was over. After taking photos, everyone left the hotel one after another.
Taylor had also left the venue. At this stage, she was indignant. “My plan was supposed to be flawless, but how did Kristen leave the lounge? Did she jump down from the third floor?”
However, Taylor was very cautious this time. She had promised Lynx that even if things didn’t work out, the Davis family would bail her out once she went to the police station. Lynx wouldn’t sell her out.
However, when she thought of the fact that Kristen was unaffected, she felt indignant! Jason sat beside him and recalled the scenes from before. He felt that it was very strange.
“Sister, don’t you think Mr. Wharton is worried about Kristen? Don’t you think it’s strange? We met them eating together before. Their relationship…”
Taylor paused, then coldly said, “That’s impossible. If there’s anything between them, it’s because Kristen seduced Ethan! Ethan is a businessman, he’s just worried that the news will affect the broadcast of Kristen’s TV series. How could he like a woman like Kristen!”
As soon as she finished speaking, she had self-doubt.
Their car had just passed through an outdoor parking lot near the hotel. Not far away, a man and a woman were embracing each other, as if they were saying something. They were Ethan and Kristen.
“Stop the car!” Taylor said excitedly.
Anna had just sent Kristen to meet up with Ethan when the two chatted for a while. Just as they were about to get into the car and leave, Taylor walked over aggressively.
“Mr. Wharton, you and Kristen? You two…” Taylor felt like she was about to collapse.
“Kristen is my woman,” Ethan said in a low voice, holding Kristen’s shoulder.
Hearing this, Kristen did not say anything else. She only hoped that Taylor would stop being unreasonable in the future.
“No… Impossible.” Taylor felt confused. “It must be Kristen who seduced Ethan!” She said reluctantly, “Mr. Wharton, Kristen and Kayes really have an ambiguous relationship. I saw it with my own eyes! She’s an impure woman. Don’t be fooled by her appearance…”
“Shut up!” Ethan said coldly. “It’s not up to you to judge what kind of person she is. From today onwards, all cooperation between TNK Group and the Davis Family will be cut off!”
After that, Ethan opened the door and left with Kristen.
“No, Mr. Wharton…”
Taylor caught up and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Jason hurried to support her.
“Sister, are you all right?”
Taylor clutched Jason’s arm tightly. Watching the car drive further and further away, her heart was filled with resentment, and she cried. “Jason, what’s so good about Kristen? Why does Ethan like her? How can’t I compete with her?”
Taylor clenched her fists tightly. She had thought that even if this matter did not succeed, she would not be affected. However, Ethan had severed all cooperation with the Davis Family for the sake of Kristen.
The projects that the Davis Family was working on with TNK Group were all major projects. Both groups would be greatly affected if this collaboration was terminated…
