Chapter 595 Elise Only Pretended; Celina Was Not
Addison was watching the livestream. She only watched it because her friend was on it, but when she saw what was happening, her chips fell out of her hand, but she ignored it. She stared at the screen in disbelief as it closed up on Elise. So Elise has been H all along? She’s my idol? So her backstage appearance was no coincidence? H has always been with me, and I never realized it?
A long, long time later, Addison snapped out of it and quickly searched for her phone, then she called her father. “Dad, I’m going back to Athesea.”
…
Celina watched as she kept failing to wipe the makeup off, and she slowly stopped. Eventually, she staggered backward. “Impossible.” Her face froze, and she looked at the makeup remover on her hand. “This thing must be rigged.” She angrily pointed at the crew. “You guys must be working with her! This thing is rigged! It can’t remove any makeup!”
The production team looked around innocently. Hey, you wanted Elise to remove her makeup, and now you accuse us of helping her. What do you want, exactly?
Celina was adamant that she was right, so she poured all the remaining makeup remover onto her face. She wiped her face quickly with the cotton pad, and a few moments later, she looked at the camera confidently. “See? This thing is fake. It can’t remove makeup.”
The camera gave her a close up, but aside from the cameraman, all the other crew members looked at Celina and frowned. Even Elise shook her head, her eyes filled with resignation.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Celina was annoyed by that look. “What? Angry that I exposed your tricks?”
Elise heaved a sigh. “Honestly, I don’t know if I should be angry at you, or if I should pity you.”
“Pity?” Celina thought something was off, and she looked down only to see some muddy mulch sticking to her hands. She then touched her face and realized that her makeup was off. She brushed her hand across her face and slowly looked at her hand. When she noticed the familiar color of her makeup, she froze up, and the bottle of makeup remover fell to the ground.
The makeup remover wasn’t a fake. It was, in fact, the best in the market. Celina might have used the whole bottle and removed all her makeup, but because of the way she removed it, all her makeup fused together and became a palette of grotesque colors. Some of the makeup was even flowing down her face. It was like her face became a wall that was filled with graffiti. All the colors had merged together, and it unnerved those who saw it. A while later, she realized something worse. This is a national livestream.
She screamed in horror and held her head, then she ran toward the cameramen, stopping them from recording. “Stop it! Stop recording right now!” But just when she stopped one camera, another took its place, then a whole dozen captured her messed up face and how she was throwing a tantrum.
She watched helplessly as the cameras pounced at her like vipers. She covered her face, trying to stop everyone from seeing her like this, but then she realized that it was all too late.
The whole nation probably saw how ugly and messed up she was. My image, all gone. All the years I spent maintaining my image as a wealthy young lady, wasted. Those rich girls who called my family an upstart are probably laughing their socks off.
Celina could hear them laughing at her. She covered her ears and looked around in panic, and the whole world spun.
“So she’s the real ugly person here. Yet she accuses the one H recommended as a liar?”
“Don’t you see? Elise is H. She’s my idol!”
“Whoa. Oh my god. That really is H!”
“Heh, that madwoman finally got what she deserves. Karma.”
“Elise was just pretending to be ugly, but she’s not. She even caused trouble, and now she exposed herself. She deserves this. Don’t pity her. The whole nation knows what kind of woman she is now.”
The crew members kept talking about Celina, as if they wanted to make the scene even more eye-catching; as if they wanted Celina to hear them. In fact, she did, and she snapped out of it. She turned to look at Elise, her eyes filled with malice. It’s all her fault. She did this to me. “I’ll kill you!” She pounced at Elise like a rabid dog.
“Sh*t! Stop her!” the director shouted to the crew members. He knew how many fans H had, so if she was hurt on his show, it would be the end of his career.
But they were standing far away from Elise. They were just going to stop Celina, but she was already inches away from H. She extended her perfectly manicured hands and tried to grab Elise’s throat.
Just before she managed to claw her way to Elise’s throat, someone suddenly came over from the entrance and pulled Elise into his embrace.
Celina missed her mark and slipped into the water tank beside the stove, and she flailed her legs around, revealing her undies.
The director quickly told someone to pull her out and yelled into the walkie talkie, “Censor that!”
The crew members were just about to do that, but Celina was already pulled out. Obviously, there was no need to censor her underpants now.
Celina choked on the water. She lost all her strength, and when she looked up to see the cameras still facing her, she went ballistic. She got up and ran away crazily. “Demons! All of you! Get away from me!”
And then the camera swiveled back to Elise. She was held by Kenneth, and they were watching as Celina made her escape. It was then that a few cameras gave them a super closeup. Elise snapped out of it and pushed Kenneth away.
Kenneth took a step back, and when he found his bearing, he gave Elise a look. “Ah, you are such a beauty, Miss Sinclair. I see I have been aiming for someone out of my league,” he teased.
