Michael got up and strode away. When he reached his car outside, he let out a sigh of relief and smiled bitterly.
He finally understood why William could be so successful. William wasn’t afraid of anything and he knew the best way to deal with each person. However, he had too many worries. If it were not for William’s intervention, he wouldn’t have the heart to threaten Meadow and he would still be under her control.
Meadow could hear Michael driving off and she sighed as she looked at the mess on the ground. Then, she got up and went upstairs.
After she entered the bedroom and sat down, Azalea called her. “Meadow, the Floyd family found out that we plotted against Michael last night.”
“How does the Floyd family know about this?” Meadow asked in surprise.
“I don’t know. My aunt said that everything I discussed with you was recorded, and the Floyd family also played a video of me pretending to be drunk. My contract has been terminated by the Floyd family!” Azalea said depressedly.
Meadow was shocked and asked, “What? Didn’t your aunt give you a solution?”
“The Floyd family informed my aunt first, so she had no choice. She felt very humiliated and she asked me why I did such a thing very angrily. I thought of a way to push the blame to Abbie and I said that she caused everything. My aunt finally believed it. Meadow, what should I do now?”
“What a bad luck!” Meadow sighed. “Azalea, Michael just came back and threatened me that he would tell his grandfather if I caused a ruckus at the Clark family. He wants me to be driven out of the Davis family and he said that he would go abroad immediately. It’s useless to threaten him with Abbie.”
Azalea was extremely disappointed when she heard this. “What should I do now? My agent wants an explanation from me and I’m getting a headache. If I knew this, I wouldn’t…”
Azalea regretted plotting against Michael with Meadow, who was in deep trouble as well. “Don’t worry, let’s find another way.”
“What else can I do? I just told my aunt that I would stop working in the entertainment industry because I wanted her to believe me. I can’t do anything now. If she really finds me a job, what should I do? I don’t want to work!”
Azalea had a terrible headache. Meadow thought for a moment and said, “How about this? If your aunt really wants to find a job for you, you can propose to work in the Floyd family’s company and get an important position. Let’s wait and see what she says.”
“What? Meadow, are you kidding me? They would only hire graduates from famous universities, but I graduated from a random university. Besides, I can’t do anything…”
“This is just a stalling tactic. Propose this to her and see what your aunt will do. Do you really want to work in a lowly position like a clerk? She wants you to work, but she has to arrange everything for you, right? It will be different if she can give you an important position in the Floyd family’s company.”
Azalea felt that Meadow was dreaming. She didn’t have any capabilities, so how could she hold an important position in the Floyd family’s company?
But there was no other way now. She could only use Meadow’s idea to deal with her aunt.
However, Azalea did not want to give up the idea of slandering Abbie. “Meadow, you should also tell everyone that Abbie is framing me.”
“Don’t worry, I understand! There is no way back from this matter, so we can only push the blame to Abbie. Let the Floyd family investigate it. Abbie will definitely not admit it, but it doesn’t matter because we will definitely place the blame on her!”
Abbie was sweating profusely at the gym as she packed her things and went to take a shower. When she switched on the tap, the two women walked into the washroom while discussing, “Have you heard the rumours from last night?”
“Of course, Abbie is incredible. She actually did such a thing.”
“Oh, isn’t that usually the case between wealthy families? But her means are too vicious. Abbie probably wants to set up Azalea with that disgusting old man, right? Fortunately, they were found in time, otherwise, Azalea would’ve been harassed by now. Although she wasn’t hurt, her reputation was ruined because so many people saw her. It was said that Michael was also there. I heard that the Floyd family had terminated her contract on the spot.”
“She’s simply too vicious! She really did something like that. No matter what, Azalea has lived in the Clark family for more than ten years. Why would Abbie do such a cruel thing for a man? Isn’t she afraid of ruining her reputation?”
“What’s she afraid of? She’s the eldest daughter of the Clark family. Richard is protecting her and Azalea is a nobody. Who will stand up for her?”
The two women went to the other side while discussing. Abbie stood under the shower and heard the discussion clearly with a grim expression.
Azalea actually got involved in a scandal last night? Why didn’t Abbie know anything about this?
And why would she be suspected? She didn’t know anything at all!
Why did these people place the blame on her? Wasn’t the dispute between her, Azalea, and Michael always been hidden under wraps? How could it spread out?
If even the people in the gym were talking about this matter, did that mean that everyone else knew about it as well?
Who spread the rumours about her connections with Michael and Azalea? Moreover, she had never schemed against Azalea. Why did these people talk about her like this? It was so abominable!
Abbie quickly rushed out of the shower to see who the two women were, but she couldn’t find them anywhere.
Abbie was extremely upset, so she packed up her things and left the gym without even drying her hair.
When she got into her car, she grabbed her cell phone and glanced at the news. She thought that the rumours about Azalea would appear on the trending list, but it was nowhere to be found. It was really strange.
Abbie was going to call Valeria to ask about the situation. However, Michael called her before she could do that.
Abbie was extremely upset when she thought of the things she heard in the gym, so she directly rejected Michael’s call.
Michael called two more times and Abbie picked up the phone with anger. “Why did you call me? Didn’t I say that I don’t want to talk to you?”
“Abbie!” Michael’s voice sounded weak. “Where are you? Can I meet you now?”
“Just get to the point!” Abbie’s tone was very harsh, implying that she would hang up right away.
Michael sighed slightly. “I want to talk to you about last night…”
“Haha!” Abbie thought that Michael was asking her about Azalea’s matter, so she directly sneered and interrupted him, “What? Are you going to get even with me for your fiancee? Michael, it’s none of my business that something happened to your sweetheart and I have no interest in scheming against her. You’re asking the wrong person!”
