Chapter 380 Emergency

Even if Zayn Lee wanted to send his men over to deal with Lily Zimmerman, those people might not make it pass Khanh City’s border marker. Back at Lunar Mountain, Snow Fenner took a shower and changed into Winifred Zea’s clothes. She now looked like a freshly bloomed lotus, gracefully standing tall. “Snow, what exactly happened? Why did things suddenly turn out this way?” Winifred asked. Up till now, Winifred didn’t know the entire story. When Autumn Field had a contract signing with Brilliant Media for a few other artists, Winifred had been acquainted with Maxwell Douglas. Back then, Maxwell had left her a good impression and didn’t strike Winifred as a person who would do something like this. Snow’s mind was currently a mess, so she couldn’t properly piece the story together for a moment. Of the three of them, only Tyr Summers’ mind was clear. “It’s simple. Star Entertainment acquired Brilliant Media at a handsome price, and under the temptations of money, Maxwell tricked Snow. Snow is now considered one of us, and we’ve had more than a few feuds with Star Entertainment. After suffering a huge loss last time, they wouldn’t just let this go. Only, I never expected they would use such despicable methods against Snow either.” At this, Tyr fell silent for a brief moment before asking, “Right, the person whom I’ve beaten up didn’t seem like a regular person. He must be an expert from a prestigious family. Do you know his identity?” “Brother Tyr, do you mean the guy with a mountain goat tattoo on his face?” Snow asked. “That’s right.” Tyr nodded. Snow answered, “He’s one of the Quintus family’s Twelve Zodiacs, and they’re very famous in Astral Province.” “The Quintus family…” Winifred suddenly frowned. “Astral Province’s number one family, the Quintus?” After Autumn Field had entered Prime City, their next direction of development would be Celestial Empire’s southern region. Hence, Winifred had collected details on prominent families and large corporations in the south, and among them was information about the Quintus family. “Yeah.” Snow nodded. “That’s the most prominent family in the entire southern region. Why would Star Entertainment have the Quintus family as their backing?” At this, anxiousness flashed across Winifred’s expression. Although she only knew a small part of the Quintus family’s details, it was enough to terrorize her. They were, no doubt, an enormous tribe in the south. “It’s because Maeve Lee is the girlfriend of the Quintus family’s heir, Yulian Quintus. There’s news about them getting engaged next month, which means Maeve would probably become the Quintus family’s young madam in the future. This matter has long been spreading throughout Stellar City.” “No wonder…” Winifred was frowning harder. As Tyr watched Winifred’s anxious expression, he laughed. “I say, Sweetheart, what are you nervous about?” “But it’s the Quintus family of the south. Out of hundreds of elite families in the southern region, the Quintus family might be among the top five.” Winifred was right. The Quintus family was truly powerful in the south. Even the Southriver King, Carson Yorke’s Yorke family, was like a tiny boat compared to a huge ship like the Quintus. Tyr chuckled. “No matter how powerful he is, is he mightier than your husband?” “Uhm…” For a moment, Winifred was stunned. That was right. No matter how strong the Quintus family was, were they stronger than her husband? Tyr glanced at Winifred and Snow before saying with confidence, “Stop thinking about it. It’s late. Get some rest. As for what happens next, be it Star Entertainment or the Quintus family that makes a move, I’ll be here to take care of things.” And so, the three of them got ready for bed. Tyr wanted to sleep with Winifred but Winifred refused. She insisted on sleeping with Snow. Tyr felt helpless about it. It looked like for the next few days that of Snow’s stay here, Tyr won’t be having his wife. “Right. I have to settle Star Entertainment quickly so Snow can go home.” The next morning as the sky gradually brightened, Winifred was awoken by her phone’s ear-piercing ringtone. Last night, she had stayed up until three in the morning, chatting with Snow, so she wasn’t fully awake right now. Sliding her screen to accept the call, she placed the phone to her ear, and the news from the other end immediately jolted her awake. “What?” The person calling was from Autumn Field’s operation department. They were in charge of packaging and promoting their brand ambassadors like Snow and right now, they sounded extremely anxious. “President Zea, since six in the morning today, large volumes of negative news about Miss Snow Fenner have been blasted all over the internet. The web is now in chaos. A few of the topics have made it into Weibo’s top ten hottest search ranking and this is causing a huge effect on our Autumn Field brand. At present, our products are facing many demands of refund online.” Winifred gasped. “What kind of negative news?” “President Zea, please take a look at the internet. I’ve already contacted Mr. Henry Walker to get his help. This issue is still growing. If we don’t suppress it immediately, not only Miss Fenner’s entertainment career would be ruined, but Autumn Field’s efforts online would also be reduced to nothing.” The call ended, and Winifred’s heart felt conflicted. She couldn’t calm down for the longest time. Turning to look at Snow, Winifred was contemplating whether to tell her the news when she realized that Snow had woken up. Snow’s back profile was facing Winifred as she kept scrolling the news on her phone. Her tears had already drenched her pillow wet. “Snow, you’ve woken up.” Snow turned around, looking aggrieved and helpless. Staring at her, Winifred felt as if a needle had stabbed into her heart. When she looked at Snow now, it was like looking at a reflection of herself one year ago when she was bullied. Other than feeling lost and helpless, there was nothing else she could do. “Sister Winifred, all the news online is fake. I’m not that kind of person.” Snow finally couldn’t withstand the pressure and began wailing out loud. For a pure and disciplined young woman, this type of slander was most unbearable for them. Winifred hugged Snow and comforted her, “I know, Snow. I know you’re not that kind of person. Don’t worry. It’ll all be over soon. Your Brother Tyr and I will definitely regain justice for you.” Winifred wanted to let Snow sleep for a bit more. However, after such news, how could she go back to sleep? Getting out of bed, the girls quickly got dressed before knocking on Tyr’s bedroom door.
