36 Furious Dominic (2/2)
More staff members reached them. They separated the two parties and mediated.
The manager of Alarm Girls were called and politely reprimanded for the incident.
The trio tried to shift the blame to Iris and her manager, accusing the two of bullying them. The staff members turned their attention to Iris and Tang Yiyi, asking what they had to say to the accusation.
Tang Yiyi was enraged but she was professional and managed to keep her cool.
As if on cue, Iris blinked several times and her eyes suddenly watered; her face forlorn. Added with her natural beauty and grace, the staff members panicked seeing her heartbroken expression. They immediately felt protective of her and inwardly shifted the blame on the three girls.
How could someone with such an angelic face bully others?
”Now, now. Miss Long, please don't cry. We sincerely apologize that this happened to you.” The staff member turned to the trio's manager. ”What kind of manager are you, letting your artists cause trouble in a place like this? Do you think this is your own house?”
The manager of the trio panicked. He repeatedly bowed and apologized to Iris and the staff.
Feifei: ”Why are you apologizing? We did nothing wrong! It's all that b*tch's fault!”
Mimi: ”That's right! We're being wrongfully accused!”
Wanwan: ”Are you people blind?! Can't you see that she's faking her tears?!”
”You three, stop it. Apologize to Miss Long right now.” Their manager pleaded with them.
Wanwan: ”No way! We'll never apologize to a sl*t like her!”
The staff members looked at the three girls with disgust.
Iris suddenly swayed and grabbed Tang Yiyi's arm for support. Her eyes drooped; her face pale. Her pretty eyebrows were scrunched into a painful frown. She lightly gasped for breath.
She looked like she was going to faint.
