Demon CEO's Hidden Love: Mr Grayson Stole Me From My Abusive Husband
Chapter 44: An Identity Revealed

Chapter 44: An Identity Revealed

Brooke was immediately turned into the subject of ridicule upon Cassie falling to the ground. The staff working at pocket change finally stepped in and rushed to help Cassie off the floor.

"Ouch, my foot, I think it’s broken." She cried out loudly.

But the people helping her saw nothing wrong with her leg, but then again they couldn’t dare to say something like that.

"Someone call an ambulance-"

One of the fans who came for the audition lunged at Brooke and pushed her back fiercely, "Are you crazy?! Why did you attack her?!"

The rest of the fans followed suit and encircled Brooke, shoving her around in a circle, throwing slurs at her.

"Stop it! I didn’t do that to her-"

"So? Are you saying she threw herself down?! Do you even hear yourself?!" One of the fans cut her off, "Admit it! Someone call the police!"

"I heard some sirens outside, let’s get them to take her away!" Another fan suggested, then grabbed Brooke by the wrist, "You’re going to jail bitch!"

But Brooke retracted her grip, "I’m not going anywhere, I did nothing wrong!" She announced loudly, "But all of you certainly will be going to jail for assaulting me! So I dare you to try touching me again!"

Cassie inwardly scoffed, ’This bitch, when did she learn to talk back?!’ She took a good look at her sister who was no longer using crutches.

’What? When did she start using that leg? Don’t tell me this bitch was just pretending all this time? Just to get Ethan’s pity?! This bitch!’ she grinded her teeth when some of the fans backed off.

*Cough*

She coughed, drawing attention to herself, "Please, no one should fight anymore, I’m the one who went to her first." She started shedding tears. "I don’t want any of my fans to get hurt, I wouldn’t be able to bear it."

Brooke rolled her eyes, she had forgotten just how annoying to look at Cassie was.

"Really? Then why are you even here? This is an audition for a role you rejected, what are you doing here?" Brooke crossed her hands over her chest.

Cassie frowned, ’How did she know that? That information hasn’t been published yet.’

She quickly replied, "I saw you on the Livestream and wanted to apologize for what I did. I never wanted everyone to hate you, I was just afraid...afraid you would hurt me again. I’m allowed to act out because of fear, aren’t I?" She cried even harder, using the staff as crutches for a leg that wasn’t even broken.

"But Brooke," she sniffled, "How did you know I rejected this role? It hasn’t been made public yet." Cassie asked, turning the conversation around.

Before Brooke could say a word, Cassie went on, "D-Don’t tell me you’re still stalking me? Who is it? Who in the agency is telling you things about me?" She whispered loudly. "What do I have to do to make you forgive me?" She begged, earning sympathy from even the people holding her up.

She broke out of their hold and started limping towards Brooke, then she intentionally fell in front of Brooke, and began to cry, holding onto the leg that she had broken when they were children.

Mocking Brooke.

"Let me go!" Brooke yelled, only for a fan to yank her hair from behind and toss her to the ground!

The rest of the fans circled around Cassie and tried to get her off the ground.

As they helped Cassie off the ground, she stole a quick glance at Brooke, who struggled to get up, and when no one was looking she lifted the corners of her mouth into a sadistic grin.

"Bitch." She mouthed, then shifted into her crying face in seconds.

Brooke bit her lip in anger and tried getting up, but the fans kept kicking her down, despite the staff trying to separate them from Brooke.

Brooke covered her face and closed her eyes painfully, as all she could imagine was Ethan’s fists cracking punches at her. She was on the verge of having a panic attack, when all of a sudden they stopped attacking her.

"Who is that?!"

"Is he an actor?!"

"Somone quick search him up!"

Brooke held onto her stomach, as she slowly opened her eyes to see a tall figure approaching her, parting the crowd around her.

She blinked twice, and tried to get out of the way, but found a hand stretched out to her. She raised her watery gaze from the hand to its owner, who had his intense gaze fixed on her.

"Mr..."

Thane cut her off by taking her by the hand and helping her off the floor. Brooke’s heart pounded ferociously, as she stole glances at him, wondering if she was dreaming the whole thing.

Cassie frowned. ’What is this handsome man doing with Brooke? And who is he?’ she got her answer when the president of the company, Lucas Slade rushed in, along side the director.

"Mister Grayson! Please forgive us for not sending a car to receive you!" Lucas announced, exposing Thane’s identity to everyone present.

Cassie looked as pale as a sheet of paper. The man hugging her miserable sister to his side was the aloof Grayson heir?!

She tried rushing over to him, but the fans held her back, ensuring she didn’t harm herself.

Thane sent a sharp glare at the president, "Is this how your company handles things? If I had known, I wouldn’t have invested my money into this film." He announced, stunning everyone.

Cassie nearly fainted. ’What? The Grayson heir is investing in this film?’ she balled her fists and kept her glare fixed on Brooke, who clutched onto the heir like a leech.

The same way she latched onto Ethan!

’How does this ugly bitch keep getting lucky?!’ she gritted her teeth, fighting the urge to pull Brooke out of Thane’s grip.

"Please forgive my negligence! I just heard about what happened outside! I promise to compensate you-" the president tried to apologize but Thane wasn’t having it.

"Today’s auction is over!" Thane announced in a loud voice and then turned to leave.

One of Cassie’s fanatics who didn’t understand what was going on, reached for Brooke, and tried to snatch her away from Thane’s side.

"You crazy bitch! Don’t think you’re off the hook-" she yelled, charging towards Thane’s direction with a crazed look in her eye.
