The Billionaire's Incredibly Talented Wife

Chapter 9

Alina was just about to head upstairs when she heard a voice. "Johnny, you have to help me. I need to get that endorsement and that role. I can't lose to that little bitch, Kelsey!"

At the sound of Kelsey's name, Alina turned and spotted a woman, dressed in a cap, sunglasses, and a mask, striding while on the phone, fully wrapped up.

Even though the woman was heavily disguised, Alina immediately recognized her. She would never forget this person.

It was Barbara, Johnny's first love and the woman he had loved the most.

Alina hadn't had many encounters with this woman, but each encounter left a lasting impression on her.

"Who are you? Get out of my way!" Barbara was already in a bad mood, and seeing someone blocking her path made her even more irritable. She was here to seek comfort from Johnny. She was about to sign the contract for that role and endorsement, but Kelsey had snatched it away. She intended to make Johnny get it back for her.

When Barbara saw Alina's face, she paused for a moment and then pointed, shouting, "It's you!"

Alina froze for a second, completely taken aback that Barbara recognized her.

The scar on Alina's face had long healed. Logically, most people shouldn't recognize her anymore. For instance, when she had met Johnny before, he hadn't recognized her. Barbara shouldn't have recognized her either.

"Are you the woman in the photos Kelsey posted on Twitter yesterday? What are you doing here?" Barbara immediately grew wary at the sight of the stunning Alina.

For some reason, Alina emitted a strong sense of intimidation that made Barbara uncomfortable, especially since Alina was friends with Kelsey. With Alina's beautiful face, she would surely rise to stardom if she joined the entertainment industry.All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Why am I here? Of course, I'm here to find Johnny," Alina said, a smirk forming on her lips, making her even more stunning.

Hearing Johnny's name, Barbara grew more unsettled. In fury, she asked, "Why are you looking for Johnny? When did you meet Johnny? What's your relationship with him?"

Alina regarded Barbara with a gaze akin to looking at a clown. Seeing Alina remain silent, Barbara roared, "Answer me now!" "What's my relationship with him? It's none of your business," Alina said with a sneer, emitting a queen-like aura.

Barbara was intimidated by Alina's gaze and took a couple of seconds to recover. "Of course, it's my business! I'm Johnny's girlfriend, the future wife of the CEO of Sutton Group. Who do you think you are?"

At this moment, Barbara couldn't care less about her celebrity status. She just wanted to immediately throw Alina out.

When Alina heard the term "girlfriend," she felt somewhat surprised. She had assumed Barbara and Johnny were already married, especially considering their child was around four or five years old. She hadn't imagined they were still unmarried. She cursed Johnny in her mind, deeming him a real douchebag

"Security! Are you all just loafing around? How can you let this unknown person in? Get her out of here now!" Barbara yelled so loudly that it drew the attention of others.

Yet, the Sutton Group staff were accustomed to this. Any employee deemed too attractive would be chased away by Barbara.

However, due to signed agreements, even if they witnessed Barbara's true nature, they dared not speak up, fearing repercussions.

"Ms. Hersey, this is Selina, the designer our Fashion Department is about to collaborate with," the security explained. Selina was Alina's alias in the fashion industry.

"I don't care who she is, just get her out! Do all of you want to lose your jobs?" Barbara continued.

"What's going on?" A stern male voice came from behind.

Upon hearing this voice, Barbara trembled slightly. When she turned around, tears welled up in her eyes.

"Johnny, she bullied me first," she whimpered.

This sweet tone was exactly the same as what Alina had heard five years ago on the phone. Back then, Johnny had targeted her unborn child for Barbara's sake, a pain Alina would never forget.
