Chapter 155
Chapter 155:
Finley was efficient. Soon, the diamond button was found in the sewer.
“Annabel, is this the button?” Finley carefully handed the button to Annabel.
“Yes. This is it.” Annabel took the button and showed it to the crowd. “The buttons produced by Leo Studio have logos on them p>
The logo could be discerned at a glance, but the button itself had been submerged in muck for so long that it was no longer usable. What a pity.
“Anything more to say?” Annabel’s question was sarcastic and rhetorical. “If your agent didn’t see you flush this, how did she know what happened p>
Annie went pale, too ashamed to defend herself.
Annabel addressed the crowd seriously. “Now that the missing button has been found, the truth is clear. Annie, I don’t know why you did it, but know that Benton Group won’t cooperate with you anymore p>
“What? You’re terminating my contract?” Annie’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“Yes.” Annabel nodded. “As Benton Group’s spokesperson, moral character is considered a top priority. We would never consider hiring a person with such poor moral standards as a spokesperson. And so, on behalf of Benton Group, I declare that our contract with you is officially terminated p>
“You have no right to terminate my contract.” Annie looked pitifully toward Brett, pleading for help.
“Honey, say something. You know I’ve always wished to be a spokesperson for Benton Group. You’ve promised me. Now, stick to your word.” Annie realized that Brett was the only one she could count on.

Brett turned around and walked out of the studio. He no longer wished to see Annie again.
“Listen to me. I didn’t mean it.” Seeing how furious Brett was as he left, Annie ran to catch up with him.

However, Annabel stopped her in her tracks. “Annie, aren’t you going to apologize to me for what just happened p>
“Apologize? To you?” Annie was livid. She clenched her fists tightly.
If it wasn’t for Annabel, how would she ever have ended up making a fool of herself in public today?
Did Annabel want her to apologize? No way.
The very next moment, two men’s voices, cold and fierce, loudly shouted in unison, “Apologize to Annabel p>
It was Rupert and Rory.
Annie’s expression changed. Why was everyone defending Annabel and not her?
She had already angered Brett. She could not afford to offend Rupert and Rory too.
Annie turned to Annabel and said through gritted teeth, “I’m sorry. Is that enough? Can I leave now p>
But Annabel didn’t budge. “Please remove your dress first p>
Annie glared at her before making a beeline for the fitting room, where she reluctantly undressed. Once that was done, she chased after Brett. “Honey, wait for me p>
