Chapter 276: I’ll Always Be There For You
Lucas couldn’t believe that the meek and mild mannered Brooke had it in her to threaten someone. Not just anyone, Damien of all people.
"Oh? And what makes you think you can touch me? In case you didn’t know this, I’m the number one actor in this country, you’re lucky you get to breathe the same air as me." He lashed out, still highly offended over her words.
But Brooke threw all caution to the wind. "I am not making a joke. You know what I’m talking about all too well. Do you really think that I’m not capable of making your life difficult? Especially with the name backing me up?"
Lucas and Damien knew exactly who she was talking about. The Grayson family.
"You think I’m afraid of them-"
"I know you are." She corrected him. Frankly speaking, she was too, Thane’s family was not one to make an enemy out of. Thankfully, she had Thane to back her up.
She rephrased her earlier claim, "In plainer words, Damien. If you drop out and cause any more problems for me, I’ll make it so that every single movie you’re in, has the Grayson name as a sponsor. Every single lead role you’re given, will be determined by me. If I say the word you won’t get anymore work, and you know I’m not bluffing."
"Brooke, you’re taking this too far!" Lucas protested, but she stood her ground.
"I wouldn’t do this if I wasn’t desperate." She turned to Damien, "I’m not asking you for much, all I want is that you hold off dropping out until all hope is finally lost. Once there’s no salvaging this movie, I’ll leave this film by myself, before it ruins any of your reputation." she promised, her eyes laced with fierce determination.
Damien bit back a slur. Not only did this woman pretend to be a pushover, but she also was somewhat worse than Cassie. At least, Cassie was talentless with no real backing, but this vile woman had one of the most influential families at her beck and call.
