Chapter 167: Chapter 167
Ariana Lynch was filled with questions, feeling that there were so many aspects of Quinn Lockwood now that were different from what she understood; things were increasingly out of her control.
Her hand holding the bow tightened forcefully, her fingertips turning a bit white.
The final PK result was naturally Quinn Lockwood’s victory.
Seeing her looking so modest and shy, Ariana couldn’t help but recall her expression when dining with Jonah Hansen, and a surge of anger flared up in her heart.
"Don’t get too conceited, you won’t get the glory, fame, or Jonah Hansen," Ariana pretended to hug Quinn Lockwood, whispering these words through gritted teeth by her ear.
Quinn Lockwood subtly dodged, looking innocently at Ariana, her voice sounding choked: "Ariana, you’ve really misunderstood. I was drunk that day and didn’t know anything. When I woke up, I saw Mr. Hansen next to me putting on his coat. I..."
Quinn Lockwood’s hand unconsciously clenched the clothes at her chest, her blushing face extending to her neck, her almond eyes misty, as if she couldn’t hold back her tears.
"Damn it! You bitch." Ariana burned with anger, her features twisted together as if wanting to devour the person in front of her whole. She reached out and grabbed Quinn Lockwood’s collar tightly.
"How can you be so shameless? Even foxes aren’t as sly as you, pretending to be pure even when it’s all broken !" Her usually gentle voice turned harsh and coarse, eyes blazing like a crazed monster.
The nearby staff, sensing that something was wrong, quickly stepped forward to pull Ariana away, though her grip on Quinn Lockwood’s collar wouldn’t relent.
Ariana wished she could strangle Quinn Lockwood right at that moment.
"Ariana, I haven’t done anything wrong. Why are you saying this about me?" Quinn Lockwood’s eyes were completely red, large tears rolling down her cheeks, her thin pale shoulders trembling, reducing her to a pitiful, sobbing state.
The commotion attracted other staff and program guests, as well as tourists nearby eager for the spectacle.
They had never seen celebrities fight before.
"Quick, take pictures, take pictures! Gentle goddess Ariana Lynch is swearing, and so offensively!"
"Tsk tsk, shows how deceptive appearances can be, the contrast is just too great."
"Look at how Savannah Lowell was bullied, really pitiful."
The crowd discussing grew larger, forcing the program team to enlist the amusement park manager and security to intervene.
Fortunately, Quinn Lockwood and Ariana Lynch’s PK had ended, and they only needed to wait for the other groups to finish recording.
By that evening, headlines of Ariana Lynch’s image collapse were firmly atop the trending list.
Watching the video of her being vicious and aggressive left everyone stunned, prompting them to express regret for misplacing their admiration.
Meanwhile, Quinn Lockwood garnered a bunch of real fans with her extraordinary intelligence and honest, sunny personality.
Especially after watching the episode of the survival in the wild program, many hailed her as the ideal "boyfriend."
Female fans vowed to marry a man as responsible and accountable as Quinn Lockwood in the future.
Thus, The Sunsets, the fan legion for Savannah Lowell, was officially established.
Upon hearing of Ariana Lynch’s verbal assault on Quinn Lockwood, Elias Sinclair sensed something was off and instructed Kevin to contact Jonah Hansen, expressing interest in working with the Lockwood Group to produce a TV drama.
Receiving the call, Jonah Hansen immediately rushed to The Sinclair Group.
After all, the opportunity to collaborate with such a renowned top-tier international company was a dream come true, something that would make one smile even in their sleep.
Jonah Hansen was sitting in Elias Sinclair’s office, inexplicably feeling the pressure making it hard to breathe.
"Here’s the script outline, take a look." Elias Sinclair handed a document to Jonah Hansen, his gaze upon him carried scrutiny.
Holding the document, Jonah Hansen was filled with irrepressible joy, barely maintaining his noble and gentle image in front of Elias Sinclair, or he’d be laughing out loud already.
"Mr. Sinclair, if this drama is produced, it will definitely top the charts." Jonah Hansen’s lips curled slightly, showcasing a refined and elegant demeanor.
Elias Sinclair slightly arched his eyebrows, his evenly jointed hand slowly raising to tidy his collar: "Who do you think is more suitable for the female lead, Ariana Lynch or Savannah Lowell?"
Surprised that Mr. Sinclair would ask his opinion, Jonah Hansen was momentarily stunned before starting to ponder.
It seemed Mr. Sinclair wasn’t as decisive and aloof as people said.
As for the choice of the female lead... it certainly wouldn’t be Ariana Lynch.
Initially, Ariana Lynch rose to fame swiftly with the backing of The Lockwood Family, with numerous resources queued up for her without competition.
Someone as ambitious as Jonah Hansen wouldn’t allow Ariana Lynch’s career to develop beyond his control.
If he could successfully collaborate with The Sinclair Group this time, more companies would line up to sign with him in the future, making it much easier for him to control Ariana Lynch’s career.
Thinking of Quinn Lockwood’s stunningly beautiful face and gentle, captivating nature... a restlessness bubbled up inside him.
"I think Miss Savannah Lowell is very suitable." Jonah Hansen handed the document back to Elias Sinclair, maintaining a courteous demeanor. Read complete versıon only at NoveIꜰire.net
Elias Sinclair’s deep eyes slightly narrowed, carrying an ambiguous gleam, his voice turning chill: "Oh? It seems Savannah Lowell’s popularity is indeed soaring lately."
Jonah Hansen, thinking Elias Sinclair agreed with him, immediately echoed: "Yes, recently Miss Lowell is quite popular. I heard her followers on X have surpassed twenty million."
"Collaborating with her would only enhance the success."
As Jonah Hansen mentioned Quinn Lockwood, his smile widened, and his eyes sparkled with anticipation, while Elias Sinclair’s gaze grew increasingly profound.
Seeing Elias Sinclair’s stern demeanor ignoring him, Jonah Hansen assumed he had other matters to attend to, exchanged some pleasantries, and then left the office.
Having returned from the crew, Quinn Lockwood came to the company to deliver the upcoming schedule to Elias Sinclair, but unexpectedly saw Jonah Hansen on the first floor, promptly ducking into a corner.
She feared she couldn’t resist kicking him a few more times.
Entering Elias Sinclair’s office, Quinn Lockwood wore a dark expression like someone owed her millions.
"Why is Jonah Hansen here?" Just thinking of that face made Quinn Lockwood’s teeth itch with hatred. Suppressing a strong surge of bitterness, her tone still carried a sense of gloom.
