Pampered By The Ruthless Underground Boss

Chapter 75:

Right as the ritual ended and Elwood was gearing up to start filming, a group suddenly stormed onto the set.

Dressed in sharp black suits, they made way for Eric, who strode in with Sloane and Lorraine, his face etched with contempt as he closed in on Khloe.

“Khloe, you disgusting, shameless woman! You traded yourself to the head of the Russell family just to get ahead. How does someone as filthy as you even think about becoming a star and ruining society’s values?”

Eric’s voice was icy and harsh, each word cutting through the air like a sharp knife, clearly out to get back at Khloe for what happened at the banquet the day before.

“You crashed my engagement party with Sloane, ruined everything, and even had the nerve to threaten us. If Karl Russell hadn’t stepped in to save you, do you really think you’d still be standing here? It’s obvious he’s keeping you!” His words caused a ripple of gasps among the crowd, their eyes shifting nervously between him and Khloe, expressions full of shock and disbelief.

The actors and actresses froze for a moment, exchanging whispered conversations with each other.

The reactions around them only fueled Sloane and Lorraine’s smug satisfaction, even if they couldn’t reveal Khloe’s vulnerabilities themselves.

Still, they were holding the reins over Khloe.

Eric’s arrogance grew. “To stay attached to me, you not only ruined the engagement party, but you also trashed Sloane’s reputation at my father’s birthday bash yesterday…”

Suddenly, a loud crash rang out, cutting him off.

Khloe had snatched a nearby prop bottle and brought it down hard against Eric’s head.

Eric moved fast, pulling away just in time, but the bottle skimmed his cheek, leaving a long, bloody cut on his handsome face.

The entire scene went dead quiet, as everyone stood frozen, unable to process what had just happened.

Khloe had actually hit someone. And not just anyone. She’d hit the heir to the Watson family. Eric was stunned into silence. Khloe had actually dared to lay a hand on him in front of everyone.

Wasn’t she trying to win back his favor? How could she have the audacity!

In disbelief, Eric gawked at her, unable to comprehend what had just occurred.

Khloe’s eyes were as cold as steel as she spoke, each word sharp and deliberate. “Eric Watson, I’ve put up with you for the sake of the Watson family, but don’t mistake that for weakness. Keep insulting me if you want to see what happens.”

It was clear—Khloe was beyond furious.

Khloe moved forward, her presence powerful and relentless, like a crashing wave.

Eric couldn’t help but take a small step back. He had never seen this side of Khloe, and a trace of fear began to seep into his chest.

“Eric, any feelings I once had for you are long gone, crushed by your own actions,” Khloe said, her voice quiet but laced with an icy threat. “And now, you have the audacity to come here and insult me? You’re practically begging for trouble.”

While speaking, her mind was already calculating whether to have Henrik eliminate Eric once and for all.

She longed to make him suffer, but enduring this humiliation wasn’t revenge—it was just setting herself up for more pain.

“Khloe, you insane woman! Do you think I’ll be scared of you just because you hit me?” After a brief pause, Eric’s anger flared even hotter.
