As Miranda listened to Eric’s words, her chest heaved. Then she told herself to calm down. "I’ve already told my manager, but this matter is too big. I need to wait three days before I get back to you."

"Three days is too long. Tomorrow morning at most," Eric said while shaking his head.

"You have to know that I’m not as famous as I used to be. Moreover, I just bought the copyright to a song. I don’t have three million in my hands now. You have to let me gather the money," Miranda said while listening to Eric.

"It’s not impossible for the time limit to be extended to three days. If you can accompany me today, I can agree," Wanting to humiliate Miranda, Eric said while rubbing his chin.

"Eric, don’t be too shameless. Don’t you want to survive in the music industry from now on?" Miranda blushed angrily when she heard Eric’s words.

"It’s just a joke. Look at you." Eric looked at Miranda and smiled. He leaned closer to her and touched her cheek before saying, "Don’t be angry. Being angry makes you age quicker. Look at your face. You look like an old woman."

"Don’t touch me." Miranda saw Eric’s hand touch her face and immediately felt disgusted. She quickly looked away.

"Okay, three days then. Give me an answer in three days. I’ll stay in this house for the time being. When you find a place for me, I’ll move." Since they had already fallen out, Eric clapped his hands and walked back to the sofa.

"You’re shameless." With that, Miranda picked up her bag, opened the door, and left.

As expected, there were a few paparazzi around the entrance of the community. When they saw Miranda come out, they hurriedly rushed forward, but they didn’t expect Miranda to be the only one.

"What’s wrong? What are you guys waiting for? I’m telling you, there’s no news today." Miranda was about to get into the car when she turned around and said to the paparazzi.

"What are you talking about, Miss Miranda? We just happened to see you." A few paparazzi quickly denied it.

Hearing their words, Miranda snorted and turned to get into the car.

After the car started and drove away, the paparazzi looked at each other. They thought that they could report another piece of shocking news, but they didn’t manage to capture anything.

"What do you mean? Didn’t Eric send a message saying that there was shocking news?"

"Is this guy going to stand us up? He’s really unreliable. Miss Miranda is really unlucky to have met such a person."

A few paparazzi gathered together and said, "It’s just the entertainment industry. But I haven’t seen anyone more shameless than him in the past few years."

"Miss Miranda, what are you thinking about?" Anita saw that Miranda had fallen into a long silence after saying that, so she asked her.

"Nothing. I just remembered something that hasn’t been resolved." Miranda finally came back to her senses and looked at her.

"And Miss Anita, I have to tell you one last time. Eric really isn’t a good person. If you really want to know, you can listen to this recording," Miranda said as she took out the recording pen from her bag and placed it on the table.

"A recording? What recording is this?" Anita picked up the recording pen Miranda had placed on the table and asked her.

"You’ll know when you hear it." Miranda didn’t explain further.

Hearing Miranda’s words, Anita didn’t hesitate to click on the recording pen.

The recording was not very long, but almost all the key points were recorded, including Eric’s ugly comments about her and him blackmailing Miranda.

When the recording finally ended, Anita still couldn’t calm down. She didn’t expect the talented young man from the university campus to become like this.

The two of them had been together for so many years. She had never been unfaithful to Eric. Why did he say that she was a shameless woman?

"Miss Anita, are you okay?" Miranda asked with concern when she saw that Anita didn’t look too good after hearing the recording.

"I’m fine. I just can’t take it when I suddenly hear these things," Anita said to Miranda when she came back to her senses. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"Speaking of which, I couldn’t accept it at that time either. I didn’t expect Eric to be such a person when I laid out my cards the other day. But people are fickle, especially in the entertainment industry. I really can’t ask for too much," Miranda said with a sigh.
