Nemesis Game

Chapter 83 Scapegoat

Ruben didn’t back down as Luke did. Instead, he tore away Luke’s pretentious face and exposed the

truth in front of everyone. This angered Luke immensely.

He didn’t want to offend Ruben, but based on what Ruben was saying, Ruben was telling everyone that

he was intentionally finding fault with Helena.

Before Samantha managed to react in time, she was already pulled up by someone from the ground.

However, because her knees hurt so bad before she even managed to stand properly, she felt a wave

of unstableness crashed onto her chest.

On a whim, Ruben managed to hold on to her waist. He lowered his eyes and saw that her knees were

injured.

His gaze was getting more dangerous, a chilling atmosphere surrounded him.

“What’s this?” In Ruben’s eyes were dancing fires, his handsome face was contorted as if giving off a

biting chill.

Without letting Samantha speak, Luke made the most correct decision at that time. He pretended that

he just realized her injuries, and yelled at Emilia who was standing by the side watching the drama

unfold.

“Why are you so evil? Even though Miss Powell’s acting skills are not so good, how can you use this

opportunity to secretly get your revenge on her?” Luke diverted all the blame to Emilia.

Emilia who was put on the spot, was so shocked till she started trembling, her face was pale and she

almost fell to the ground.

She couldn’t afford to offend Ruben.

The happiness she felt just now while torturing Helena was replaced now with the same level of regret.

She never expected that Luke would sell her out once Ruben arrived.

Even though she indeed had selfish thoughts just now, she…

Emilia suddenly felt hopeless, she understood something.

She was dead meat.

Luke intended to sacrifice her to put out Ruben’s fire.

Samantha’s forehead was full of sweat, she almost couldn’t stand firm, so she was leaning onto

Ruben’s chest for support.

This time was different from the last. At her most hopeless, he appeared once again to save her.

She took a deep breath, inhaling his cool aura, her eyes were getting wet.

Luke, Emilia, all of you please get lost.

She was immensely tired; she didn’t want to say anything more.

Emilia’s pleading eyes turned to Luke, but Luke turned a blind eye on her and asked furiously, “Who

brought her here? Her evil personality is not fit to be part of our team. Apologize to Helena. Even if

Helena doesn’t pursue this matter further, Universal Entertainment will investigate this to the core!”

Emilia understood the threat within Luke’s words, and she collapsed to the ground in shock.

There was no way Luke would admit that he had done that on purpose, and hence she was the sole

scapegoat for it.

Struggling with her words, Emilia said, “Mr. Baker… I didn’t do it on purpose, please don’t chase me

away, I didn’t do it on purpose…”

Ruben’s gaze got even colder, “So you’re confessing? Intentionally finding fault with her was all your

own doing?”

“Of course it’s her. Helena is with Universal Entertainment, why would we bully her? It’s all because of

this woman, her heart is like a snake!” Luke trampled furiously on Emilia, his action violent and cruel.

Pressing on her chest, Emilia rolled onto her side, her face was filled with misery, “Mr. Knight, Mr.

Baker… I know I was wrong, I didn’t mean to pick a fight with Miss Powell, please forgive me.”

Emilia who was kneeling on the ground, reached out to hug Luke’s legs, pleading pitifully.

Luke’s eyes were cold, without hesitating he kicked her, “I can’t let a troublemaker like you stay in the

team, it’s Helena this time, I’m not sure who will be the next victim.”

Emilia’s face was filled with tears, she was kicked away by Luke numerous times. Now she understood

what despair felt like.

Samantha was in so much pain that she couldn’t talk, so she was watching everything happen in front

of her silently.

She felt no pity for Emilia. She wasn’t Mother Teresa, if Ruben hadn’t come to the set today, she would

have continued to be bullied.

Her knees were injured, and the back of her hands was filled with blood.

Why didn’t Emilia think of letting her off then?

Finishing his words, Luke viciously dumped all the responsibility onto Samantha.

“Helena, for all the damage Emilia did to you, how do you intend to deal with her? We will follow your

wishes.” Even when Luke was forced to this point, he still never forgot to rub it in for Samantha. He

wanted Emilia to hate Samantha, not him.

On the issue of how to handle Emilia’s matter, this was the responsibility of the team.

But Luke was throwing this problem at the victim Samantha, this was unusual.

Hearing this, Emilia knelt forward and tugged at Samantha’s skirt hem. With tears streaming down her

face, she begged, “Miss Powell, it’s all my fault, please forgive me, don’t chase me out from the team.

I’ve been playing supporting characters for so many years, this show to me is extremely important, I’m

begging you, please don’t ruin me…”

Look!

Without Samantha saying anything, Emilia was already moving the issue further and further.

It was originally Emilia’s fault, but she was now exaggerating things, saying that not allowing her to stay

on set would be ruining her career!

Emilia thought that if Samantha said something for her, then she could stay and continue acting. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

But Samantha broke free from Ruben’s arms, bent down with difficulty, and separated Emilia’s fingers

one by one.

It was as if she could see the hopelessness and terror in Emilia’s eyes. But Samantha felt indifferent to

it.

“What has it got to do with me if your career is ruined?” She looked at Emilia who was crying like a

waterfall, in her eyes were a hint of coolness and ruthlessness that didn’t belong to her.

Her voice was soft, her words were slow as if wanting Emilia to listen clearly to every single word she

had to say.

Emilia slumped onto the ground. She widened her eyes in fear, and her tears drenched her cheeks.

“Helena, I’m begging you, please let me go, just one word from you would do.” Emilia was sobbing

bitterly.

She had already forgotten the pain Samantha felt just now.

The like of her only knew how to beg for mercy.

Samantha was neither sad nor gleeful, she quietly lifted her eyelids, and silently spat out a few words,

“It is indeed just one word, but why would I help you? Who are you to ask for this?”

Her personality was inherently rebellious, even if forced to bow down, she still held her head high.

Now with Ruben’s support, of course, she wouldn’t be gracious and soft-hearted.

To be kind to your enemy would be asking for trouble for oneself!

She would never do this kind of dumb thing, never.

Emilia’s face changed in an instant. Wiping her tears, her gaze was spiteful, “Helena, you bitch, you

relied on men to become the female lead, what are you so proud of? I am already begging you so

pitifully, but you still don’t want to help me!”

With these words, all the wrongdoings seemed to belong to Samantha.

Just when Emilia finished her words, her face was heavily slapped by someone.

She was hit so hard that she was seeing stars, and her ears were buzzing.

Luke’s eyes flashed with flames. Before Ruben, he had already announced, “Director Solomon, get

Emilia out of the team, do not allow anyone from the team to invite her for shooting anymore!”

Before Emilia came back to her senses, Luke’s bodyguard had already come forward to drag her out.

Screaming, she was scolding Samantha hysterically.

Samantha didn’t forget the evil glance Emilia had shot her before she was dragged out, it sounded like

a witch’s final curse.

“Mr. Knight, what happened today will never happen again, please forgive us.” Luke gave a smile,

meaning to say that this was the end of the story.

Ruben looked at Luke with a vicious and insidious look, a cold and indescribable smile on his lips.

He stared into Luke’s eyes, murmuring inaudibly to himself, his eyes murderous.

Ruben warned him, “Mr. Baker, you can’t even manage a set properly, you’d better sit tight on your

position as executive director.”
