Chapter 1537
Winona narrowed her eyes. “A meeting isn’t necessary. If you have something to say, say it on the phone p>
Shifra started crying again, her sobs soft and pitiful.
Winona wasn’t buying it. She said bluntly, “Sorry, I’m busy. I don’t have time to listen
to you cry. If you want to cry, call Keaton and let him listen p>
Shifra sniffled. “Winona, I was wrong… what happened today, it really was on purpose. I was just p>
Shifra then repeated the same story she had told Keaton.
Including all the hardships she had endured for her dream.
“I’m so sorry, I was wrong. Can’t you forgive me? I’m young and I was foolish p>
Winona’s reply was swift. “No p>
Shifra was stunned. p>
Winona said, “I don’t care if you rode Keaton’s coattails to get some buzz, but now you’re trying to ruin me. Why would I forgive you for that p>
“Go do your livestream and set the record straight. Once you’ve clarified everything, we’ll be even. And for Keaton’s sake, I won’t sue you p>
Shifra pleaded, “I know I was wrong, but I can’t go public! It’ll ruin me. This career is my entire dream she choked out between fresh sobs p>
Winona was completely unsympathetic. “The entertainment industry is your dream, but my acting career is *my* dream. If you don’t clarify this, you’re destroying my dream. I’m not going to sacrifice myself for you. I’m no some martyr p>
Seeing that Winona wasn’t giving her an inch, Shifra choked out, “But Winona, think about it. If I do clarify, will anyone even believe me p>
“They’ll just say you forced me to do it, that I was scared of you and that’s why I was willing to throw away my future to apologize on a livestream p>
Winona gave a cold laugh. “Shifra, I’m several years older than you and I’ve been in this business for a long time. I’ve seen more than my fair share of manipulative little actresses who play the victim. Don’t even try those pathetic little tricks on me p>
“Either you set the record straight publicly, or you can prepare to be buried in lawsuits p>
Shifra gritted her teeth. “Winona, I’m Keaton’s girlfriend, you p>
Winona cut her off. “Don’t bring Keaton into this. He’s already spoken to me. The issue between you and me has nothing to do with him p>
Bet
“But I will give you one piece of advice, for his sake. It’s not easy to get into a dance academy. Don’t throw your éducation away over this p>
With that, Winona hung up.
Shifra gripped her phone, her breathing ragged with anger.
“Bitch p>
After cursing viciously, she thought for a moment, then made a call.
“I’m going to do a livestream in a bit. I need you to get some people to steer the narrative p>
After laying out her plan, Shifra started the livestream.
Without washing her face, she went live with her red, swollen eyes, looking pitiful and wronged.
“Hi everyone, I’m Shifra. I want to make a public clarification… The
things said today werent frenet
deliberately hurt Winona because was jealous… It was all my fault p>
Before her stream even ended, people started steering the narrative in the comments:
“Shifra must have been forced to do this, right? She’s ruining her own future p>
“This is so obvious. Winona is just making Shifra the scapegoat to protect her own reputation p>
“Wow, Winona is ruthless. The
moment she’s in trouble, she throws
her
to completely destroy Shifra p>
Salled, friend under the bus
The viewers looked at the sobbing Shifra, then at the comments.
For a moment, no one knew what was real and what was fake.
