Demon CEO's Hidden Love: Mr Grayson Stole Me From My Abusive Husband Chapter 323: A Ruined Endorsement Deal

Thane got the feeling that Brooke was keeping sothing from him, hence, now more than ever, he refused to leave, and waited to see what exactly was happening.

"Go in, Brooke. I’ll wait outside." he told her, standing his ground.

Brooke’s chest tightened as she stepped down from the car, she kept looking behind her, looking for Ethan, her heart a racing ss.

"I an, if Thane stays in the car, and I have Ethan et from the back area, they might not cross paths." she convinced herself, pulling her phone out to call him and relay the change of plans.

Unfortunately, as she dialed his number, a car swerved over, senselessly, bumping into the back of Thane’s car. Brooke swallowed when Ethan stepped out of the car and rushed over.

He was however cut short in his tracks, when Thane opened his car door, hitting him in the face with it!

"Son of a bitch!" Ethan cursed, cupping his nose.

Thane stepped out of the car, Brooke went to his side, "Thane, let’s go-" she tried to persuade him, but her husband did not move.

Hearing her voice, Ethan stood up straight and focused his attention on her. "Brooke? What the hell-" he was saying, up until he noticed the man she was standing next to.

He pointed at the both of them, in disbelief, "Brooke, what the hell are you doing with this bastard?!" he yelled at the top of his lungs.

Aaron was in his trailer with the director, when the assistant director ca in, a hot ss, "There’s a scene happening outside!" Mona announced, driving them both into motion.

They both got up and went outside to check, wondering if so extras were having a fight, or so of the staff had gotten into a heated argunt, normal things to expect on set during filming.

Little did they expect to see Brooke standing in-between two n, a frightened look on her face. As they got closer, Aaron was the first to notice one of the n was Ethan Halton!

"Brooke! Do you think you can cheat ?! How dare you?!" He raised his hand, aiming to strike her.

In a quarter of a second, Aaron was in front of Ethan, and landed a harsh blow on his face, cracking his nose.

Ethan fell to the ground, but he quickly got up, he tried to return the punch, but the security team quickly intervened, protecting the male lead.

"Let go! Brooke! How many n did you charm? You cheating slut!" he slurred as they tried to drag him away.

"Hand him over to the police!" Aaron ordered the security guards.

They quickly obliged, dragging him away. The spectators had their phones out, filming the entire thing.

"What does he an by cheat him?"

"Just who is Brooke to Ethan Halton?"

"Why did Aaron step in like that? Are they together?"

Brooke looked around her, the focus had quickly shifted towards her and Aaron, and it gave her a sickening feeling in her stomach.

She looked at Thane, who seed paler?

Was it the crowd?

Had he been overwheld?

She tried to et him, but Aaron held her by the wrist, "Co with ." He said, he leaned in, "We need to talk."

Brooke protested, alternating her gaze between him and Thane. Why wasn’t he saying anything? Why was he just standing there silently?

"Don’t make a bigger scene," Aaron whispered loudly, "Shit has already hit the fan." On cue, the director walked over to them, with two security guards in tow.

They walked past Thane, and led Brooke away from the crowd.

She turned to Thane, but he gave her a reassuring smile, and whispered for her to go with them.

Her heart sunk.

She didn’t know why, but she felt like she was walking away from sothing she wouldn’t be able to return to...

The news spread like wildfire!

Naturally, Ethan was out of prison in less than an hour, but the dia was hot on his tail, with so low grade gossip magazines waiting at his company.

To make matters worse, Cassie got the short end of the stick after the news got leaked.

"What the hell?! How could you cancel this endorsent?!" She scread over the phone, her eyes fuming.

She waited for the person on the other end to speak, but they instead ended the call.

"Hello?! Hello?!!" Her frantic calls t no response.

"Damn it!" She slapped her phone on the counter.

"That bastard Ethan! What the hell was he thinking?!" Cassie panicked. "This is the number one maternal brand! The best in the country! I was supposed to be the face of their new product! How dare he ruin this for ?!"

Hannah rushed to her sides, and gently rubbed her shoulders. "Ma’am, you have to calm down, all this stress isn’t good for the baby."

Cassie slapped her hand away, "Screw the kid!" She ran her fingers through her hair. "I don’t care if he ets with that bitch, but I draw the line at my work."

Hannah nodded, "But what do you think ma’am? Why would Aaron take Brooke’s side like that?" She pointed out, fishing for Intel.

Cassie shook her head, "I don’t care about them. Brooke has always been a worthless whore."

"Then, what about him?" She turned on her phone and showed her a picture of another man standing next to Brooke. "Who is this man?"

Cassie glanced at the picture, only to have her jaw drop. "The Grayson heir?!" Her mind swiftly flashed back to the audition, the one where the Grayson heir carried Brooke outside.

She yanked the phone out of Hannah’s hand, "That leech!" She cursed, she zood in on his face, "She really is amazing! Is there any man she can’t trap?!"

Hannah feigned surprise. "This is the Grayson heir?" She gasped.

But Cassie was in too much of a shock to notice. She bit her nails, her eyes darting around. ’This is bad. If things continue like this, that bitch will really take everything away from .’

Shaking her head, she reached for her phone, "Get out! I need so ti to think!" She chased Hannah out.

"Of course, ma’am." She replied, then obediently stepped out of the room.

Once she heard the door shut, Cassie opened a chat window, she stared at the last ssage sent.

C: Thank you for the endorsent deal! I knew I could count on you.

Mr X: When are you breaking off your engagent to Ethan? You promised you’d beco my exclusive woman.

Cassie frowned at the ssage. She had planned to leave it on read after getting the brand deal. Little did she expect to run into trouble just hours after she got what would’ve been a huge boost in her stagnant career.

Taking in a deep breath, she glided her thumbs, and cooked up a reply.

C: I promise, this will be the last ti. If you can do this one thing for , I swear I’ll call off the wedding....
