Marry A Hidden Billionaire (Alice and Daniel) novel Chapter 332

Chapter 332
Sabrina chimed in right after, “Exactly, Alice. This ad project was intended to give priority to my cousin’s celebs.
“You’re from a different company. It’s not appropriate for you to take this project. If you step back now, it’ll be better for everyone. I’ll assist you.”
Alice observed them calmly. The same person who had once given her the cold shoulder was now acting as though she cared about her well-being.
Alice’s smile turned icy, and she countered, “Miss Clark, unless I’m mistaken, Mr. Miller’s ad projects haven’t always been exclusively for his celebs.
“Furthermore, Mr. Miller brought me in to discuss the ad, indicating he’s looking for a celeb of my type. You and Cindera might be beautiful, but when it comes to appearance and demeanor, you aren’t suitable for the Blue Enchantress ad.
“As Mr. Miller’s cousin, your priority should be his interests, not your personal preferences.”
She knew they coveted the Blue Enchantress ad, but Brian had chosen her this time, and she was determined to secure it.
If she backed down due to Sabrina’s manipulations and threats, it would be like admitting defeat.
Backing down wasn’t her style.
Sabrina furrowed her brows; Alice’s words left her puzzled.
If she insisted on having Lena’s candidate take the Blue Enchantress role, it would almost be mocking Brian’s project.
It might even lead Brian to misinterpret her intentions.
Cindera, who was standing on the side, overheard this and immediately crossed her arms in indignation. “Alice, what’s your angle? You think taking this ad means Mr. Miller will be in the red?
“You’re quite the mastermind, always causing chaos and stirring up trouble! You…
As Cindera’s words grew more disrespectful, Brian’s expression turned even colder. He interrupted her directly, “What exactly do you want?”
“Me?” When Brian addressed her, Cindera thought she might have a chance. She glanced at Lena briefly before Brian’s voice cut in again.
“Starting now, your work is suspended. Take a break for now.”
Cindera widened her eyes, disbelief and protest escaping in a shrill outcry, “You, you’re stopping me from working? Mr. Miller, why? Is it because of what I said about her?”
Cindera believed that was the reason, to the point where she even despised Alice. “Mr. Miller, are you bewitched by her? Are you really backing that cun ning woman?
“We’ve got plenty of women at our company who are better than Alice. Haven’t you found anyone else appealing? Why does it have to be Alice?”
She was furious, truly furious.
Brian’s patience had worn thin, “If you want to get fired, just say so! I won’t tolerate a troublemaker on my team!”
“Why am I suddenly a troublemaker? I’m just upset. Mr. Miller, which one of us has a bad reputation? And if you use me, wouldn’t that be cheaper than using her?
“Alice doesn’t bring much to the table except her looks. Why are you shielding her? Why are you taking her side? Do you actually have feelings for her?”
“Idiot!” Brian was seething. He rubbed his temples and looked directly at Lena. “Put her on a break. I don’t wan
er.”
“I don’t want to be put on a break! I haven’t done anything wrong, so why are you sidelining me?” Cindera cried as she said, clutching Lena’s arm.
“Lena, please help me. I can’t be sidelined. What are you going to do if I’m sidelined?”
Lena was reaching her limit of frustration. Cindera truly proved herself to be a total fool. Going after Alice should’ve been sufficient; why was she persistently questioning Brian?
Brian was their boss. Even if he held a soft spot for Alice, discussing it openly was out of the question.
Now Cindera was digging herself into a hole and expecting Lena to shield her. Only an im becile would tolerate such a foolish woman.
At this juncture, Lena had no patience left to educate Cindera.

Chapter 332
And Brian had zero interest in dealing with someone as foolish as Cindera.
He required those who could rake in profits for the company and possessed a firm grasp on reality—definitely not someone who would challenge him and be weaponized against others.
Noticing that Lena wouldn’t back her up, Cindera realized she was in a tight spot. She had no choice but to cling to Sabrina’s arm, as though grasping for a lifeline.
“Miss Clark, please help me. You said you’d help us. Please save me quickly. As long as you save me, I’ll do anything.”
Seeing Cindera clinging to Sabrina, Lena felt the urge to give her a good smack.
This foolish woman shouldn’t be revealing their entire hand like this.
Of course, Sabrina wouldn’t be offering Cindera any more assistance at this point. She discreetly looked at Brian and sighed, “Cindera, there’s nothing I can do for you. If you need help, you should turn to Alice. After all, you started this by insulting her.”
This was a hint for Cindera to direct her anger at Alice. If she sought trouble, she should look for it with Alice.
She shouldn’t keep pestering Sabrina for help, as she wasn’t in a position to provide any.
Sure enough, upon hearing Sabrina’s words, Cindera completely lost control and erupted. She pointed at Alice’s face and shouted, “Alice, you wicked woman! It’s all because of you! I despise you to the core! Let me tell you, if being sidelined pushes me to the edge, I’ll drag you down with me!”
Seeing this foolish pawn being manipulated, Alice couldn’t be bothered to give her the time of day.
Meanwhile, Alan sneered, “You want to take on my girl? Alright then, give it a shot. If I let you mess with her, I’m not worthy of being the King of Entertainment!”
Brian realized the situation had spiraled out of control. It was getting ugly, and he didn’t want Cindera to keep making everyone uncomfortable. He signaled for security to step in and remove Cindera.
Then, his gaze turned icy as he fixed his eyes on Lena, “If you and your team stir up more chaos like this next time, it won’t just be your celeb who ends up on the sidelines. Clear?”
Lena was taken aback and quickly nodded, saying, “Mr. Miller, don’t worry, I… I understand, completely!”
Afterward, she shot Alice a sneaky glare.
Today, Lena’s resentment toward Alice had been solidified entirely.
Once Lena had left, Brian redirected his attention to Sabrina. “Got more business?”
Clearly, he wasn’t feeling up for a conversation with Sabrina.
Seeing Brian’s blatant lack of interest, Sabrina bit her lip, inhaled deeply, and then chimed in. “Nothing. You can go ahead with your plans!”
With those other women out of the picture, Brian’s gaze swung back to Alice. She maintained an aura of calm, seemingly untouched by the chaos. This only increased Brian’s admiration for her.
“Alice, can you make it for the shoot tomorrow?”
Alice nodded. “No problem.”
“Perfect. Come by the office tomorrow, and we’ll head to the shoot location together. I’ll iron out the contract details with your agent,” Brian explained.
“Sounds good.”
As Alice was about to take her leave, Brian seemed to recall something and raised his hand. “Alice, hold on a m
