Chapter 470
Sasha covered her ears. “I can’t hear you. I can’t hear you.”
Bella was speechless.
“Celeste has a feud with Shannon. If it wasn’t for the woman, Celeste wouldn’t have retired from showbiz at the height of her career.”
The sound of Mila’s aloof voice startled Sasha and Bella to scream.
“Jesus Christ, Mila! You don’t make a sound when you walk.” Sasha
held her chest.
Sasha never acted cute and coy with Wyatt, but she pouted adorably
with Mila.
“Aunt Mila, what are you doing here at this hour? I wasn’t expecting
you.” Bella eased her breathing, feeling relieved that it was not
Celeste.
“I’ve been here since you started talking. You were so loud.”
Mila glanced outside before shutting the door and approaching them. “No point keeping it a secret now, $asha. Bella is all grown up. You should just let her know.”
Bella eagerly held Mila’s cold hand, waiting for her to open up.
“Jealous of Celeste’s talent and fame, Shannon kept sabotaging her.
Despite Celeste’s popularity, she was bullied and marginalized on the
channel network. In the end, she was drugged and humiliated at a
huge event.”
Mila drew a deep breath to keep herself together before revealing the
dark past in a flat tone.
Sasha sighed. Despite her talkative nature, she held her tongue.
“D-Drugged?”
Bella felt her throat dry as she asked in a raspy voice, “Was Aunt
Celeste-”
“It’s not that type of drug.”
Mila choked with sobs and murmured, “She was drugged with
something that disrupts the nervous system. It can no longer be
found in Orealm now, but it was all the rage in showbiz back then.
The recreational drug is detrimental to health.”
Bella and Sasha were shocked, their eyes watering.
Mila was an heiress to the Larson pharmaceutical empire, so she
knew the medical industry like the back of her hand.
“What happened then?” Bella clutched Mila’s hands.
“Later, she was performing on stage for a channel special when she
had an incontinence issue in public.”
Mila teared up.
“Fuck. How did that happen?” Driven by fury, Sasha punched and
smashed the vanity mirror.
Bella trembled as she held her breath.
