Elder Kinston's Exclusive Sweet Wife-Chapter 859 - 895: Unfair

"Since overthinking leads to hesitation, why not simplify your thoughts? It might better align with your true intentions," Mabel Quinn suggested, offering her advice. Ultimately, though, it was up to Alice Conley to consider.

Alice Conley showed a thoughtful expression, and Mabel Quinn didn’t continue the conversation, instead saying, "Alright, tomorrow is the press conference. Let’s double-check if we have everything prepared."

"Okay," Alice agreed, and the two of them threw themselves back into work.

After all, this press conference was really important for them!

On the day of the press conference, Mabel Quinn and Alice Conley arrived at the venue early in the morning. As they entered, they coincidentally saw Indigo Quigley entering the conference hall.

Upon seeing them, Indigo’s expression immediately turned resentful, especially when her gaze landed on Alice, it was full of jealousy.

She recalled the day Alice had gotten into Dorian Howards’ car, while she herself ended up in a forced situation with that reporter Finn in bed! It was so unfair!

She thought sleeping with him would settle the matter, but Finn had secretly set up a pinhole camera, recording their entire encounter, and demanded 3 million as ransom for the video.

million wasn’t an amount she could casually take out; she didn’t have that much cash on hand. If she asked her family for money, it would inevitably lead to their suspicion. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

So, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and sell some of her jewelry to scrape together the money to retrieve the video.

And all of this was instigated by Alice Conley and Mabel Quinn!

At this moment, Indigo was channeling all her anger onto others, forgetting that all of this stemmed from her own actions.

"Mabel, did you feel like Indigo gave us a really venomous look just now?" Alice said.

"It did feel that way," Mabel nodded, "Be careful later, in case she tries to pull something."

"Okay," Alice agreed.

At 10 a.m., the press conference began. Thomas Quinn, Alessia Quinn, and the lead actors and directors of the three films attended, responding to various questions from reporters.

However, Alessia couldn’t muster a smile. To her, it was a kind of mockery. She had put a lot of effort into this press conference, but now, the spotlight was on Thomas. The microfilm that he and Mabel collaborated on got the popular rising star Lucas Finley as the lead, naturally drawing more media attention.

Reporters continuously asked questions about Thomas and Mabel’s microfilm, while on her side, even with a microfilm and a TV series that had been filming for a month, and even with a preview played, few reporters were interested. In contrast, they only had a few posters.

Yet, despite the frustration within, Alessia had to maintain a gentle demeanor in front of the reporters, keeping a smile on her lips.
