Chapter 28 Chapter 28: "Alright, since we're in this, let's go all in. But, Miss Evans, there will be many hurdles, so you need to be ready for the challenges ahead." Khloe gave a small smile, her face showing confidence and determination. She lifted her chin, her eyes sharp and intense, as if fueled by an inner fire. "Don't worry. I'm determined to get back what's mine. Everything Sloane took, I'll get back and more." She straightened up, giving off an energy that made everyone feel she would surely win.
Henrik's gaze lingered on Khloe, a faint trace of admiration in his eyes. He turned to Tess and said with assurance, "If you encounter anything you can't manage, go to Rhett. He'll help." Tess was taken aback. For something as trivial as this in the entertainment world, Henrik was willing to call in his top confidant, Rhett Foster. It seemed that he deeply cared about Khloe.
Tess felt a surge of confidence; this time, success was a given. They were bound to make a fortune.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe long-awaited day for Khloe and Sloane to clash once again arrived. Tess picked Khloe up early and took her to the company for a full makeover before heading straight to the "Peaks of Eternity" set.
As they entered the set, Sloane was nowhere to be found, clearly late for her arrival. Tess told Khloe she was going to talk to the producer and director, leaving Khloe to wait on the set. Tess' assistant offered to set up a beach chair, sunshade, and other comforts, but Khloe politely declined.
She wasn't looking to draw attention, but the curious stares from everyone around her were unavoidable. There was no hiding it—she was simply stunning. Khloe wore a simple yet elegant white dress, her long hair flowing down her back like a waterfall, and her features seemed to glow in the sunlight.
As soon as she walked onto the set, the bustling scene went quiet. The crew was immediately drawn to her, their eyes wide with surprise and admiration, wondering which company this remarkable newcomer was from.
After standing for a while, Khloe grew a little tired and asked someone to bring her a small stool. At that moment, a sleek, luxurious van pulled up in front of her. The door swung open, and Sloane stepped out, wearing oversized sunglasses and bright red lipstick, flanked by two assistants, one holding an umbrella while the other carried her bag.
Just as Sloane was about to step onto the set, she spotted Khloe and halted, removing her sunglasses with a feigned expression of surprise.

"Oh, here to play a background role? Look at you, so washed up. Did your sugar daddy get tired of you and toss you aside?" Sloane crossed her arms and spoke with unmasked arrogance.

She understood that the more Sloane acted as if she were above everyone, the more it showed how shallow and clueless she really was. Sloane, however, was infuriated by Khloe's composed attitude, feeling humiliated. Her glare turned malicious.
"Bitch, what's with the smug look? Do you really think Karl will always protect you? Be realistic! Cback and apologize. Maybe I'll let you work as a servant to make a living."
"How noisy!" Khloe's eyes turned cold. "Sloane, are re you really asking for more humiliation?"
The words hit Sloane hard, reminding her of the humiliating moment when she was crushed beneath Khloe's foot. She paled and instinctively took a step back.
"Bitch..." Sloane was about to snap back when a male voice called dut from behind.
