Chapter 25 Day of Reckoning

The other guests were also interviewed.

Only Gianna had nobody bothering to interview her.

She pushed herself in front of the camera. “This experience taught me so much. I want to thank Amelia for taking care of me and the other guests too. Our time together was absolutely unforgettable.”

But the audience wasn’t buying it. “Fake” kept flooding the live chat.

They were talking about Gianna.

The moment Gianna stopped talking, reporters shared knowing looks. They clearly weren’t impressed by her obvious attempt to steal the spotlight.

“Can Gianna please stop riding on Amelia’s coattails? All she did was fake being her friend.”

“Right! Did she forget how she bad–mouthed Amelia behind her back?”

“Seriously, how can she mention being taken care of? Who abandoned their teammate during the storm?”

She walked over, holding a wine glass.

“What do you want? Amelia’s tone was icy.

Gianna pretended not to notice her cold shoulder, smiling sweetly. “Marcelo just called. He wants us to come home after the Party”

I have other plans tonight. Amelia flatly refused.

“Amelia, Marcelo wants to discuss your contract. You won’t refuse, will you?” Gianna emphasized the word “contract.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll go back tomorrow. Amelia replied indifferently.

Amelia stepped dosen unna, cut the act! You know exactly what you did on that island. Your day of reckoning is coming. It’s just not today?

Hearing this, all the caller dined from Gianna’s face. Amelia smiled coldly, but her eyes were like ice.

After the celebration wrapped up. Amelia walked out of the hotel.

Jeremy’s black Maybach was painted meatby. Seeing Amelia approach, he opened the car door.

Amelia smiled and nodded. “Thanks, but you really didn’t have to pick me up.”
