Chapter 261: Slap on Her Face

"Uh, Miss Therese..." One security personnel spoke up on behalf of his team. "Can we confirm this issue first to the staff who escorted them here? As you know, she might be a special guest."

Therese narrowed her eyes in a grimace. "I’m not asking for your opinion. You were summoned here to escort them out. No need to wait for confirmation."

"Letting them in is a huge mistake. They don’t belong here. Is she even an artist here?" Therese continued mocking Athena and Lanny.

Lanny couldn’t stand hearing those insults so she spat back at her. "Hey, Bitch! For your information, the management of YD Entertainment is the one who begged my artist to sign an exclusive contract with them! Of course, she is now an artist here!"

Therese raised her eyebrow, pursing her lips in annoyance.

"Oh, really? Then call the management. Let me see if you are telling the truth."

The guards just exchanged anxious looks at each other. They even scratched their heads as they didn’t want to offend both ladies.

"I think I recognize her," Therese’s personal assistant whispered to the manager. "She is known as the Masked Singer, Athena."

Therese’s manager was taken aback for a moment. She heard of that name before.

’Oh right! The Ye-tube sensation. I remember her. But she’s not from this country. Why is she here? Are they telling the truth? She already signed a contract here at YD Entertainment. I thought she was an independent artist who doesn’t want to sign any exclusive contract!’’

This time Therese’s manager approached her artist. "Therese, calm down. She’s not an ordinary artist." She warned her.

But Therese was stubborn enough to listen. She just glared at her manager, making her shut her mouth.

’She is famous worldwide,’ The manager added to her thoughts, not voicing it out loud.

"What are you still waiting for? Call the management now!" Therese continued challenging Athena and Lanny.

Just when Lanny was about to call Timothy, he suddenly stepped into the VIP lounge together with his secretary.

"What’s going on here, guys? The VIP lounge is so crowded today." Timothy’s cheerful voice caught everyone’s attention.

"Mr. President!" Therese immediately ran into him. "I’m glad you are here!"

Therese rejoiced inwardly. She thought she would be able to humiliate Athena now since her strong backer arrived. She was confident that Timothy would support her since she was his favorite artist. Aside from that, they also had this special relationship as ’Fuck Buddies’.

Meanwhile, Timothy was puzzled as he sensed the heavy tension inside the room.

"Why are you here?" He asked the security personnel.

Even before they could answer him, Therese spoke up.

"Mr. Wilson, I called them. Some people entered the wrong room. And they were so arrogant when I asked them to leave. I already explained to them that this VIP lounge is exclusive only to selected artists of YD Entertainment." Therese anchored her arms around his elbow, deliberately pressing her breast on his body. She was using her beauty trap to make Timothy listen to her concern.

Athena could only shrug her shoulders while taking a deep sigh. She felt like she was wasting her time there.

Timothy glanced at Athena worriedly. He could tell that she was no longer in the mood. She didn’t even take a glance at him as if she was ignoring his presence.

"Lanny, I guess we should leave now. We can reschedule our meeting for some other time." Athena walked past them, not looking back.

"Hey! Where are you going? Aren’t you going to apologize? You trespassed on this VIP lounge that doesn’t belong to you. Now that our Big Boss is here you decided to run away!" Therese chased after Athena, grabbing her elbow even before she could go out of the room.

Lanny slapped Therese’s hand off Athena. "Don’t touch my artist! Apologize your ass!"

This time Timothy intervened as he stepped forward, separating Lanny and Therese.

"Calm down, Ladies. Let’s talk. I guess there is a misunderstanding here." Timothy smiled awkwardly, trying his best to pacify the situation.

Timothy turned toward Athena with an apologetic look in his eyes. "Miss Athena, Apologies for keeping you waiting. Our meeting was extended for half an hour so I arrived late."

Therese was shocked when Timothy humbled himself in front of Athena. He was the President of the company but he appeared to be trying to appease Athena.

With a deep frown on her face, Therese questioned Timothy. "Who is she?"

Timothy shifted his gaze from Athena to Therese. "Oh, right. I should introduce you to each other since starting today the two of you will work together for the upcoming big concert."

"Therese, this is Athena, the Ye-Tube sensation. She is known as the Masked Singer. Athena, this is Therese, our super idol of YD Entertainment. I know you will get along well since both of you love music."

"And by the way, she didn’t trespass here. I specifically asked them to stay here as they waited for me." Timothy finally cleared the misunderstanding.

The guards could finally sigh in relief. They were glad they didn’t kick Athena out, or else, they would be in trouble.

On the other hand, Therese clenched her fists in annoyance. ’She is just a newly signed artist. How could they let her stay in the VIP lounge? This is so unfair.’

Therese let go of Timothy’s hand while pouting her lips. She continued glaring at Athena.

"Mr. Wilson, I think Miss Therese should apologize to us for accusing us." Lanny firmly said, crossing her arms over her shoulders. It’s time to strike back.

"Huh? Why me?" Therese burst out in fury.

"Because you offended us," Lanny replied matter-of-factly.

Timothy felt alarmed. He didn’t want this misunderstanding to escalate further. Athena and Therese should cooperate with each other since they are going to work together in the upcoming concert.

"Miss Lanny, I–"

"No, Mr. Wilson. Athena and I will only stay here if this woman apologizes to us. What is your stand about this?" Lanny put pressure on Timothy. She was trying to check whether he would support Atheba or support Therese.

To her surprise, Timothy didn’t hesitate when he said, "Therese, go and apologize to them. Now!" It was an order from the President of the company.

Therese’s jaw dropped and her eyes widened in disbelief. She didn’t expect that Timothy would choose Athena over her.

’Damn you, Timothy! You are a traitor! No fucking for the whole month. Let’s see if you can endure it! That will be your punishment for me.’

"Therese!" He urged her again when she remained silent. "Don’t make me repeat myself." Timothy used his authoritative voice.

Therese had no choice but to obey Timothy. Though she was reluctant to say sorry, she apologized to Athena.

"Forgive me for treating you that way. I’m just tired from my trip so I was triggered. I got so emotional." Therese lowered her head to hide her disdain.

Athena could tell that she wasn’t sincere but she decided to ignore her.

"Alright, let’s proceed to our meeting now. Therese will be joining us. Since this is our preparation for Athena’s first concert here. And Therese will be your performer guest." Timothy informed them.

’What?! It’s her concert, not mine?!!’ Therese felt like she was slapped in the face.
