Chapter 1960: Warning from Power

"Abby..." Tess approached the girl again, asking with concern and pity, "How are you? She didn’t hit you too hard this time, did she?"

Justin Kingston withdrew his gaze and went to the director’s side, asking softly, "What’s going on?"

Huh?

Did he see through it?

This level of insight is too sharp!

The director’s heart raced, knowing that even if he didn’t speak, CEO Kingston would find out immediately. Protecting Angel was just his selfishness.

So the director smiled flatteringly, speaking somewhat vaguely, "Between actresses, there can be some grievances, but they’ll soon resolve. I hope such trivial matters won’t affect your mood."

Justin Kingston’s face turned slightly sullen upon hearing this, and he glanced at the hotel behind him, asking nonchalantly, "Are you all resting here during the break?"

"Yes, CEO Kingston." The director said, "The sun is getting strong outside, let’s head inside first? I’ll report the work to you; there’s a coffee here with a nice flavor."

At this moment, Jerry Garcia walked over, "CEO Kingston." He greeted them.

Anton Miller turned and entered the hotel, not even acknowledging his brother. He was in a really bad mood, just like a child.

Justin Kingston’s gaze landed on his brother’s back, and he stepped forward, moving inside.

Angel, not knowing whether she was hiding or what, had disappeared after filming ended.

Justin Kingston traced her path, calmly arriving at Angel’s resting room, the door closed, the director beside him sweating nervously for the woman.

She must have been out of her mind to slap Abby Sawyer twice!

Last night Abby Sawyer and Anton went out for a meal, should have guessed their relationship was not ordinary.

The director also blamed himself for not warning Angel.

Having secured the leading actress position, why provoke Abby Sawyer? And didn’t even clearly understand what kind of background she had.

"You go ahead." Justin Kingston said, before knocking on the door, turning to the director, "Don’t follow me, I’ll come to find you once I’ve handled this."

"..." The director didn’t dare forcibly stay, so he nodded, "Alright, then you go ahead." Then gave him a worried glance before turning to leave.

The director took out his phone and quietly sent a message to Angel—

[CEO Kingston is outside your door]

The moment Angel received the message, she shot up from the sofa! Her face turned slightly pale with panic, and the next second, she heard a knock at the door.

She clutched her phone and looked at the door, barely calming her nerves, "Come in."

Justin Kingston pushed the door open and entered, his deep and cold gaze locked on the woman not far away, taking long strides inside.

The door behind him did not close; he didn’t want to leave any room for speculation or gossip about investors being alone with the leading lady.

From a distance, Angel met his gaze, standing before the sofa, not daring to move, even her breathing became cautious.

Although Justin Kingston’s expression wasn’t cold; he was actually quite calm, merely locking his gaze on her and striding towards her.

But his innate aura was still present.

"CEO Kingston..."

"Angel, Abby Sawyer is my friend, you’d better be polite to her in the future."

Justin Kingston stopped two meters away from the woman, his voice chilling and devoid of warmth, "Otherwise I’ll replace you, regardless of cost, and reshoot from the first episode."

Angel was stunned, her heart filled with fear, her face pale, not daring to retort. This was a warning from power.

He wasn’t joking.

Justin Kingston also believed she heard his words clearly, "Got it?" Then he scrutinized her briefly, collecting his gaze before turning to stride out.
