Chapter 1043 Sudden Incident Selena slumped on the couch, feeling totally wiped out. She dragged herself upstairs, barely managed to shower, and then crashed on the bed.
The next morning, she woke up to find no messages from Raymond.
At the office, she kicked off a meeting. The execs were all ears.

I'm worried the folks at All Star Entertainment might stir up strouble." One of the execs chimed in, "Ms. Fair, Sophia's new show is out and it's getting a great response. Lots of endorsement deals are coming our way. She's on the brink of becoming a top-tier star. By the tthe show wraps up, she'll probably be there." Selena, who hadn't slept well, yawned. She turned to Ronald, "Ronald, you're in charge of Sophia's future. You don't have to micromanage her, but at least plan her general direction. You were the one who first worked with her, after all." Ronald nodded.
Selena covered a few more points before tiredly wrapping up the meeting.
Back in her office, Selena looked at the sunlight outside and asked Ann, "Did the dress I had sent over arrive?" Ann replied, "Yes, it's already at Manston Manor." Selena said, "Ann, cancel all my afternoon appointments. I have a party tonight." Ann nodded, "Got it, Ms. Fair." Selena noticed smarks on Ann's body. They were still there from that day, fading but still purple from heavy pressure.
Selena frowned, "If there's something you can't handle, you should talk to me." Ann stiffened and quickly changed the subject, "Do you wantto go with you tonight, Ms. Fair? I can drive." Selena thought for a moment and nodded, "Sure, we'll meet a lot of big shots in the film industry tonight. It's good for you to get acquainted. We'll all be working together in the future." Just as Selena and Ann were about to leave, they saw Ronald rushing out of the conference room. Selena quickly asked, "Ronald, what's up?" Ronald replied anxiously, "Ms. Fair, at the new show press conference, Sophia was knocked down by haters. She fell off the stage and hit her head. She's in the hospital now." Selena was shocked and immediately forgot about the party. The three of them rushed to the hospital.

The three of them paced anxiously in the hospital corridor.
The hospital was also surrounded by fans. News of Sophia being taken to the hospital had leaked, making it hard for the three of them to leave.
