Tiana Thorne teased, "You'll know tomorrow."
May Sloane didn't ask further.
After hanging up, Tiana received a text from May, with one or two phone numbers on it.
She curled her lips into a smile, looking at the bustling streets outside the window, her smile becoming more enchanting.
Aiden Shaw, oh Aiden Shaw, how about I make use of you for a moment?
...
The next day.
At 8:10 in the morning, two pieces of news shook the entire entertainment industry, reaching the headlines of major platforms at lightning speed.
#Aiden Shaw acquires Pinnacle just for Tiana Thorne#
#Romantic tryst with Tiana Thorne in casting lounge, confirming relationship#
However, the subject of the rumors, Tiana Thorne, was still sound asleep, enjoying her beauty sleep and pleasant dreams.
A phone call woke her up.
She lazily turned over, not even opening her eyes: "Hello."
"Tiana Thorne... you're, you're finished!" May's voice was tearful.
Tiana turned over again, glanced at the time: "If there's something important, say it. I have twenty more minutes of beauty sleep left."
"Were you behind those headlines?"
"Hmm... not bad, it seems your crew isn't just a bunch of incompetents."
Such a big deal, yet Tiana was not hurried at all, as if discussing the beautiful weather today, and then nothing more.
But May was completely panicked, speaking with a trembling voice, "Oh my god! So it was you. Do you even realize who Aiden is? You've offended both Aiden Shaw and Grandmaster Shaw. Your acting career is basically over. Had I known you would do this, I wouldn't have given you the contacts even if I died!"
Tiana yawned, lazily asking: "So, are you dead now?"
"No."
"Then shut up and let me sleep for another eighteen minutes. Call me when I'm awake."
With that, Tiana hung up the call, switched to flight mode, and continued sleeping.
On the other end of the call, May felt utterly shocked hearing the busy tone.
This Tiana Thorne, just what is she?!
It's courting death to provoke the mighty Shaw!
Eighteen minutes later.
Tiana woke up, stretched lazily, picked up her phone, and used the mirror function to check her face.
She took one glance and was so startled she dropped her phone.
Who the heck is this?!?!?
What's up with the dark circles and the little pimples on her forehead???
Indeed, being the subject of headlines brought envy from the entire internet, and her looks had reverted to how they were when she just reincarnated, simply a doggone mess.
She must seize this opportunity; as long as there are fans who truly like her, her looks shouldn't continue to deteriorate. It's just a matter of how stunning she would become.
The results from yesterday's audition haven't been announced yet, and she, oh she, hates it when people make her wait.
Aiden Shaw's acquisition of Pinnacle and personally acting alongside her didn't exactly stir big waves; it's simply because Tiana Thorne's status in the entertainment industry is too low.
But she just doesn't like mediocrity, even daring to tug at the tail of the tiger, so what?
Therefore, she had to step on Aiden Shaw for some headlines.
She took out her phone, and the comment section of the headline news was exploding.
"Tiana Thorne, you don't need disc herniation, just break your spine already."
"Master of the art of judging bitches makes a visit."
"Grandmaster Shaw's bodyguards, carrying machetes, arriving at the battlefield in three minutes."
Within half an hour, the shares shot up to six figures.
As for comments, probably none went without attacking her; the effect seemed even better than she imagined.
She curled her lips into a smile, just about to call May, when May dialed first.
Tiana answered the call languidly.
"President Pace is furious; this time you're really finished."
"And what else?" She believed there couldn't be something so simple about this call.
