Caroline stood to the side, unsure how to comfort Autumn. Audrey was furious, and Caroline didn't dare approach.
Autumn's eyes were red, her face full of resentment. "You're wrong. She didn't get all that because of hard work. She got it because she's manipulative…"
Audrey slapped her again. "Stupid girl! Autumn! We're done. I'm no longer your agent. Just wait — the company's going to fire you!"
Audrey knew continuing this conversation was pointless — like talking to a brick wall.
They didn't see the world the same way, so there was no point trying. Audrey had assumed this was all Caroline's bad influence, but now she realized Autumn's twisted thinking had been there all along.
As Audrey stormed out and slammed the door, Autumn was so angry her chest hurt. Audrey had always treated her well, like a big sister — looking out for her and helping her grow.
But now, she'd completely blown it.
Everything was gone.
