Doted by Many: I became the Top-Tier Celebrity!-Chapter 380 - 379: I Gave You a Chance

Gwen Boyce has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and aside from the first couple of years after her debut, this is the first time she’s been rendered speechless.

Tiana Thorne narrowed her eyes slightly, "I don’t like to be interrupted when I haven’t finished speaking. Besides, I already gave you a chance."

Jeff Lee could only feel that her aura was too strong. Ever since coming into this room, she wore a captivating smile, yet exuded a soul-stirring presence.

Tiana Thorne turned her gaze to him again, "Jeff, isn’t it strange that Miss Lee used to constantly ask about the entertainment industry, but hasn’t asked at all lately?"

Jeff Lee frowned; indeed, it was somewhat abnormal.

When it came to matters concerning his daughter, Jeff Lee’s demeanor softened a bit, "Miss Thorne, just say what you have to say."

Gwen Boyce’s heart suddenly began to race, both anxious and uneasy.

Tiana gave her a glance, catching the panic in her eyes, and slowly curved her lips, "Miss Boyce should know more about this matter."

"Tiana Thorne, don’t spew nonsense while I’m under the weather," Gwen responded coldly.

Tiana retorted, "I don’t have a bloody mouth, how could I be spewing nonsense?"

Gwen usually dealt with people who paid special attention to their image, but Tiana was the sole exception.

As if she were not part of the entertainment circle, her behavior was more like that of a hooligan or a small-time crook.

Her usual sharp tongue was now unable to find any words, her intimidation tactics vanished.

"On the 17th of last month, Miss Lee said she went on a group tour for a week. Was she really with a group, Gwen, you should know better than anyone else."

This time she directly addressed Gwen, unwilling to even offer her the slightest superficial respect. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Gwen’s face changed immediately, it wasn’t clear, but some oddities were apparent.

Jeff Lee frowned, "What is going on exactly?"

"Miss Lee likes Julian Eames, isn’t that something you should have known?"

Jeff Lee nodded, "I know."

Once, she asked him to make an introduction, but how could a playboy like Julian Eames like his daughter?

He refused with various excuses.

"You thought that refusal would prevent any incident, but you overlooked that Gwen Boyce is a first-rate star."

Once, while Gwen was filming, Sarah Lee came crying because Julian Eames was rumored to be involved with a newly debuted female artist.

Sarah wanted to know if the rumors were true.

Gwen checked and confirmed that it was indeed true, Sarah cried hard, and it was at that moment Gwen learned of her affection for Julian Eames.

That very day, Gwen stretched her claws toward her.

Gwen entered the entertainment circle as a fangirl; during college, she liked Ken Wyatt and wanted to be his wife.

But she was a step too late; by the time she established herself in the industry, Ken had married and was blissfully happy with his wife.

The whole entertainment circle blessed them, except for Gwen.

She worked so hard, just wanting to marry Ken Wyatt, how could she allow someone to take her man away?

Gwen became a tool to snatch men.

Ken Wyatt’s agent Kevin Rowan was her good friend, and every time she visited Kevin, she would bring Sarah Lee along.

She told Sarah that Kevin and Julian Eames were from the same company, and Kevin knew some things about Julian.

Sarah completely trusted Gwen and never doubted anything.

Through their interactions, Kevin developed a lust for Sarah.

This was also part of Gwen’s plan.

Desperate to marry Ken Wyatt, Gwen stopped at nothing, drugged Sarah, and then summoned Kevin to accompany her.

Kevin, half pushing, half embracing, ended up spending a night with Sarah in a hotel.

A lone man and woman, with one drugged, naturally lost control in a night of chaos.

Kevin did not know that Gwen had installed a camera in the room that evening, recording everything that happened.

Early the next morning, Kevin made his proposal: he would make Sarah his mistress, cherish her for life, but if she made a fuss, he would send her off with money.

But things were far more complicated than he thought.

Before Sarah awoke, Gwen came and told Kevin he had slept with Jeff’s cherished daughter.

Kevin realized he had been set up.

If Jeff knew about this, the consequences would be dreadful.

Only then did Gwen reveal her purpose: merely to be with Ken Wyatt, proposing a deal with Kevin to find a way to make Ken fall for her, while she would weave a dream for Sarah, making her falsely believe the man she spent the night with was her beloved Julian Eames.

With things as they were, Kevin genuinely liked Sarah and reluctantly agreed to the dirty transaction.

And poor Sarah remained oblivious to the truth, enjoying herself, thinking she was in love.

Afterwards, Gwen and Kevin struck a deal: he would persuade Ken Wyatt to star in a romance film with her, featuring kissing and bedroom scenes, and she would have Sarah accompany him for a week.

The cooperation was agreed upon, and Jeff also supported it, but who knew it would be so sordid behind the scenes?

Sarah claimed she was going on a trip, when she actually went to Azurea.

To keep things from exposure, Gwen lied to Sarah, saying Julian Eames didn’t like lights in these matters, nor would he speak, she just needed to appease him.

Sarah thought as long as she had his body, eventually she’d win his heart, so she agreed.

Even now, Sarah remains unaware this was merely a ruse, indulged in sweetness, naturally she no longer frequently approaches her father asking about things in the entertainment circle.

After recounting all this, Tiana was silent.

Sarah is a foolish girl, yet a courageous pursuer of love; she should have been respected, but her fate led her to Gwen, a venomous woman.

Jeff Lee’s eyes had long been flushed with anger, his fists clenched, yearning to tear Gwen apart.

Gwen’s face turned pale and translucent, as if her skin had been stripped away, rendered transparent, not daring to meet Jeff’s eyes.

Tiana recounted so meticulously as if she had been present, observing everything as it unfolded.

Gwen panicked, "Sarah and I are as close as sisters, how could I possibly treat her like this? How dare you malign me? What evidence do you have?"

"Isn’t the video that destroyed Miss Lee’s reputation enough as evidence?" Tiana asked nonchalantly.

Jeff’s final hope crumbled, his eyes filled with tears, the redness overwhelmed the whites, tears threatened to turn into blood, his body shook, if not for his nails digging into his palms, he was on the verge of fainting.

He looked at Gwen, unable to utter a single word, but his overwhelming sorrow weighed heavily upon the room.

At last unable to hold back, a tear fell, his voice was hoarse, "Gwen, is what she said true?"

Gwen was suddenly at a loss; she’d never seen Jeff so enraged, and hurriedly shook her head, all semblance of composure dissipated, hastily trying to explain herself, "Jeff, I’ve been with Sarah for nine years, our bonding is great, she’s speaking nonsense and trying to sow discord!"
