The She-Boss Stuns The Billionaires novel Chapter 49

Chapter 49

Imana’s words instantly brought to mind that messy forum drama from before,

Briar was an orphan, adopted by Imani’s parents.

Briar just clckled lightly. “I don’t think it’s necessary. What’s your take, Imani!”

Imani’s face went pale as she realized Briar was threatening her.

But seeing Spencer beside her, looking clueless, she couldn’t help but feel resentful.

Imani fumed inwardly. Why does Briar get everything without lifting a finger!”

Imani started, her voice trembling, “Briar, you.”

Seeing this. Spencer asked with a puzzled look, “Miss Shepherd, this is.”

“Ah, this is my sister,” Briar said, slinging an arm around Imuni’s shoulders with a bright smile that didn’t reach her eyes. They looked close, but her gaze was razor–sharp.

With a sardoule smile, she said, “Director Walsh, don’t even think about Imani. She’s above your whole commercial movie scene. She’d never stoop that low. Making money like that isn’t it just selling our How pathetic”

Imani was so furious that she nearly ground her teeth

Spencer silently glanced at Imani’s contorted expression and quickly nodded. “Of course, of course..

Truth be told, he only had eyes for Briar. As for the girl beside her–well, actresses like her were a dime a dozen in showbiz.

But Briar sure had personality.

Imani’s face went pale. Without thinking, the blurted out to Spencer Director Walsh, please don’t listen to her nonsense. 1…

Briar drawled, cuning her off. “Imani.”

“Seriously, Imuni! You’re Shepherd Group’s heiress, Ronan’s sister, and you even have profesional training. The entertainment industry would be groveling at your feet. Don’t tell me you lack that kind of vision!”

“L” Imani faltered, her hopeful gaze darting to Spencer.

She thought to herself, ‘No matter why Briar revealed I’m Ronan’s sister, Ronan is a top–tier star, after all. Now that Spencer knows who I am, surely he’ll treat me differently, right!

To everyone’s surprise, Spencer’s expression instantly darkened.

He’d spent two full years preparing this film, only for a big–shot investor to forcibly showka traffic star into the cast just days ago

If not for that, he wouldn’t have been so rigorous about casting the other roles.

Imani, usually so perceptive, instantly became flustered when she saw Spencer’s expression darken

Spencer frowned at Briar. “Miss Shepherdd, are you also Ronan’s sister?”

“Not really,” Briar said without hesitation. I have nothing to do with that family.”

“That’s a relief.” Spencer let out a visible sigh of relief, pulled a business card from inside his jacket, and handed it to Briar. I won’t disturb you any further, Miss Shepherd. We can reconnect after your boot camp ends, or feel free to reach out to me anytime.”

“Take care, Director Walsh,” Briar said with a bright, knowing smile,

Once Spencer was gone, Briar’s smile widened ingo–atriumphant grin.

“Terling frustrated, Immans? Like a dog staring at meat but never getting a bite?”

Imani spar through gritted teeth, her voice trembling with anger. “You did that on purpose!”

Briar smirked. “So what if I did it on purpose? Båte me!”

Branched her eyebrows dramatically, “Oh right, forgot–spoiled rich girls like you never fight back. When you get slapped around, all you do is whine pitifully on the forums. What good does that do you?”

No matter how much people online chimed to side with the weak, humans–or rather, all animals–were hardwired to admire the strong

Chapter 49

Strip away the Blusions of the internet age, and one thith remained–the strong would always come out on top.

The watching students were sharply divided in their reactions.

Some people thought liniar was nutrageously arrogant and vulgar, really going too far, and they actually felt sorry for Imani.

Still others, noticing manis flustered demeanor, could tell there was more to the story between her and Briar than met the eye.

Imani stood frouen, unable to unter a single word.

Imani thought stealing Briar’s identity meant victory, but Briar couldn’t care less.

Even with nothing to her name, Briar could still get under Imani’s skin!

The team quickly assembled, but Briar shing on her weighted backpack and took off running laps around the track by herself. She breezed through three miles like it was nothing

At dinnertime, Briar skipped the cafeteria and cozied up alone in her dorm, scrolling through her phone.

Mae went

– went out of her way

y to bring Briar a hamburger from the cafeteria.

Mar whined, “Briar, why is the instructor always picking on you!”

Mae puckered her face and grumbled, “He lost fair and square, but now he’s just taking it out on you out of spite

“No big deal” Briar chuckled, completely unfazed. “If I were the instructor, I’d probably want to teach a troublemaker like me a lesson boo
