Chapter 502 Conflict

"What are you doing?"

Aster stood there holding a glass of water, staring at them in surprise.

"Don't mind them, just keep moving."

Finally, Aster noticed a short-haired woman of small stature sitting on a nearby chair.

She was none other than Shania Mayton, one of Evelina's assistants.

Shania was also Evelina's second cousin, with an older sister named Jenny Mayton.

Shania stood up from the chair and cast a disdainful look at Aster, who was still holding her water glass.

"Who are you?" Shania asked.

Aster frowned and asked, "Who are you? Who gave you the right to boss people around in Ms. White's lounge?

Where are you taking the water dispenser?" Shania let out a cold snort. Her tone was haughty, "I'm Evie's

assistant!"

Evie?

Who's Evie?

Aster thought for a moment, then realized she must be talking about Evelina.

How typical of this family-run team! In this industry, assistants usually refer to their artists as "Ms. or Mr. So-and-

so" out of respect.

But Shania? She just went with Evie as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Not only did she lack respect, but she made it seem like she was the big star herself.

What an oddball.

Trying to stay patient, Aster asked, "You're Evelina's assistant. What are you doing in Ms. White's lounge?"

Shania responded, "There's a broken water dispenser next door. My sister toldto cover and get this."

Aster tightened her grip on the glass, trying her best to hold back. In the end, she couldn't.

"Are you out of your mind? What's wrong with you? You cin here without saying a word and start taking our

water dispenser-where do you think this is? Your family's house? Put the dispenser down and get out of here!"

The two individuals operating the water dispenser instantly froze.

After being scolded, Shania was fuming, and she flared her nostrils like an angry bull. She asked, "What did you

say? Who do you think you're telling to leave? You should be the one leaving! This lounge will belong to Evie

soon. Who do you think you are, telling us to get out?"

In all her years in the industry, Aster had never encountered such a rude assistant.

Not one to back down, Aster fired back immediately.

The two engaged in a heated argument in the lounge.

At that moment, Violeta was growing impatient from waiting. She finally pushed the door open and walked in.

"Aster, what's going on here?"

The argument cto an abrupt halt.

Aster turned around; her eyes, which had been wide with anger, suddenly softened.

"Ms. White, | was just getting swater when | saw them trying to take our water dispenser. This person here

is Evelina's assistant, and she's claiming that this lounge will soon belong to Evelina

Shania's eyes widened when she saw Violeta. Her first thought was about how stunning Violeta was.

She quickly snapped out of it, and her thoughts turned scornful. Must be plastic surgery-there's no way someone

could be born looking like that.

Shania placed her hand on her hip

and scolded, "Yeah, didn't you get

the memo? This lounge will soon be

ours Naturally, we're taking

the

water dispenser."

Violeta glanced at Shania and the people moving the dispenser.

"You're Evelina's assistant?"

"That's right."

Violeta had heard from Eugene that Evelina's agent had a big mouth and strong personality.

She hadn't expected Evelina's assistant to be so aggressive and unreasonable.

Violeta turned to Aster and said, "Eugene did mention that our lounge would be moved upstairs, so it seems this

one will indeed go to Evelina." Aster replied, "Oh, | see."

Shania beceven more haughty and added, "Exactly! Did you hear that? Violeta, your assistant has no

manners."

Violeta shifted her gaze, now cold and piercing, back to Shania.

"But for now, this lounge remains

mine. If | don't want to move, no one can make me. You've barged in here and taken my things without my

permission-is this your idea or Evelina's?"

Shania had no idea how to respond. She said, "If you refuse to move, you ...

She didn't finish her sentence because two more people entered the room-Evelina and Jenny.

"Shania," Evelina called out.

As soon as Shania saw the arrival, she stepped forward and complained, "Evie, they won't lettake the

dispenser!"
