Chapter 556

Meredith led the opposition, shouting, “No way! Our routine is a group dance. Missing one person means we have to rearrange the positions. With just ten minutes left to the party, we don’t have tfor that. Moreover, going on stage with a messed–up routine will surely be embarrassing.”

“That’s right! It’s better not to perform at all than to ruin our image!”

“Absolutely! Ms. Lawson, please help us!”

After contemplating for a while, Sheena called their manager, Jaime, aside for a private conversation.

“How much did you negotiate for the appearance fee with the Upton family for this event?”

Jareplied, “The Upton family was generous, agreeing to 7.5 million. If we breach the contract now, the penalty is ten times that amount, totaling 75 million. Ms. Lawson, please reconsider!”

Sheena scoffed. “I’m not trying to breach the contract. Does Katie think she deserves my money?”

Japuzzled, “Ms. Lawson, what’s your plan?”

Without answering. Sheena stopped a servant passing by in the hallway. “Get Katie here. I need to discuss something with her in person.”

The servant hesitated, saying, “The party is about to start, and she’s probably in her room doing touch– ups. She’s not receiving guests.”

“Tell her that if she doesn’t come, I’ll announce in front of all the media and guests that the party will be delayed until she decides to cand resolve the issue.”

Forced delays were a significant taboo, and the servant was intimidated by the sternness in Sheena’s eyes. Hence, she quickly ran upstairs.

Within a few minutes, Katie cdown.

Then, she asked in an irritated tone, “What’s the matter?”

Jastepped forward to explain, “Ms. Upton, one of our team members‘ Costumes got damaged, and we can’t proceed with the performance. As the costwas provided by your side to match your party theme, could you please allow them..

Interrupting Jaime, Katie scoffed. “These costumes were custom made, and voe handed them to you well in advance. You ruined one, and now you have the nerve to cto me?”

She snorted and looked at Sheena provocatively, “if they can’t perform, just leave my house and pay the penalty for breaching the contract,”

Jaime, unable to handle the situation, looked to Sheena for assistance

Sheena chuckled and threw the pile of torn fabric onto Katie.

Katie was instantly angered and backed out of the way. “Sheenal Do you even know how expenses

this gown is? If you ruin it, I won’t let you off!”

Sheena’s smirk deepened, her tone dripping with sarcasm as she responded, “Oh, it seems you’re aware that this performance costgot splashed with red ink.”

Katie was stunned but quickly regained her composure. “Why would I know about that? Even if it’s not stained with red ink, it’s still filthy and beneath me!‘

As she spurted the last few words, she gritted her teeth, her gaze vaguely pointing toward Phoebe.

Sheena frowned, uninterested in further argument. Instead, she raised her phone to Katie’s eye level.

She showed a video of all the members surrounding the damaged costume, acting helpless and distressed according to Sheena’s prearranged script.

Katie was puzzled. “What are you trying to say?”

Sheena smirked, “With only ten minutes left until their performance at the Upton family’s party if the Upton family doesn’t send the replacement costume, this video will be broadcast on the large screen in the garden and will appear online overnight. I’ve even had a little essay written, subtly pointing fingers at the Upton family.”

Katie scoffed. She was not afraid at all.

Destroying Phoebe’s costwas just an appetizer, and the main event she prepared had yet to come.

After all, Katie had celebrated tons of birthday parties, and she was getting bored of it. In truth, she planned to use this birthday banquet to settle scores with all the people she despised.

That would be the true payoff to her planning!

“Sheena, you underestimate me. Do you think I care about these things? So what if the Upton family’s stock market wavers for a few days? If the Upton family loses smoney, we’ll just make it back in

the future!”

Chin slightly raised, Katie continued with a triumphant tone, “After all, the costwas provided by my people. If they can’t protect it, it’s their problem. If you don’t want Phoebe to embarrass herself on stage, just breach the contract!”

Sheena narrowed her beautiful eyes, observing Katie’s reaction.

Compared to half a year ago, Katie seemed more cunning this time.

Was someone advising her behind the scenes?
