"Tell me honestly now, what are you planning? Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude," Miranda asked again.

"Miranda, what... what can I do? I’m doing this for your own good."

"I don’t know since when, but the Internet said that your injury was related to Anita. Everyone said that you became the spokesperson for Dazheng Technology Company because President Owen likes you and is wooing you."

"And you happened to be injured during the company’s filming yesterday. Coincidentally, Anita went to the company that day and was seen, so everyone is saying that you were injured because of Anita’s jealousy. Now, everyone is discussing who Anita is."

"How could you not tell me something so important? What are you trying to do? Don’t you know how hurtful those rumors on the Internet are?"

"And Miss Anita isn’t in the entertainment industry. Why did you involve her? You’re really stupid," Miranda said speechlessly.

"And don’t you know about our relationship from the time President Owen found me to be his spokesperson until I was injured? Won’t you know if I’m in a relationship with President Owen?" Before her manager could say anything, Miranda said quickly.

She was really about to burst from anger.

"I know. Don’t be angry. I’m doing this for your sake. I’m not going to hype this up anymore. Otherwise, what will happen to you in the future if there really is a scar on your face?"

"Besides, do you think you can continue to survive in the entertainment industry at your age?" Hearing Miranda speak so ruthlessly, the manager wasn’t afraid of falling out with her anymore. Her tone became even worse.

"You think that there might be a scar on my face, so you want to give up on me, right?" He finally got to the point.

Only then did Miranda understand why her manager hadn’t even been here once since she was injured. He was worried that she would have a scar in the future and be useless to him.

"Miranda, what are you talking about? Didn’t you want to change your manager for a long time now? Why make it sound so bad?" the manager snorted.

"Yes, I do want to change managers. In that case, let’s talk about the contract again after I recover." Without waiting for her manager to say anything, Miranda hung up.

"What’s wrong, Miranda? Why are you so impulsive? If it’s because of the injury from the filming, the company will definitely discuss the compensation with you. You don’t have to worry. Also, you can’t change your manager just like that," Bruce said worriedly when he saw that Miranda didn’t look happy.

"Nothing. It has nothing to do with you. The two of us have been at odds for years, especially when I was with Eric."

"Now is the perfect opportunity for the two of us to part. I just didn’t expect him to be so cold even after working together for so many years," Miranda said with a helpless smile.

"Miranda, don’t... don’t be sad." Bruce’s heart ached even more when he saw that Miranda was so sad. He didn’t know how to comfort her and could only gently hug her.

Miranda wasn’t a very weak person. She just hoped that when she was sad, she would have someone to hug to give her warmth.

When Miranda’s arms wrapped around Bruce, Bruce couldn’t help but tremble. He didn’t expect Miranda to take the initiative to hug him. At that moment, his mood lifted.

"Okay, I’m okay, Bruce. Thank you," Miranda said softly after she left Bruce’s arms.

But before Bruce could savor the feeling of hugging Miranda, she released him. Looking at his empty arms, Bruce smiled awkwardly and said, "You’re welcome. You were injured in our company, and we’re all very sorry now."

"Bruce, I didn’t know that my injury would affect you so much."

"I’m really sorry, especially about Miss Anita. I’ve never had any other thoughts about President Owen. I hope he doesn’t misunderstand," Miranda said to Bruce after calming down.

"Miss Miranda, we all know that. You don’t have to apologize to us. You didn’t cause this matter. The CEO is already investigating this matter. Don’t worry about it and just rest," Bruce said to Miranda.

"Yes, I know, Bruce. I don’t have anything else here. I’ve found a caregiver. Go back to the office first. I’ll contact you if I need help." Miranda didn’t say this loudly, but the ward was so small that Bruce could hear her clearly.
