The cold knife was pressed against Barbara's cheek. Any movement from Barbara and the blade would cut her face.
Barbara, gripped by fear, could sense the seriousness in Alina's demeanor, understanding the gravity of the situation unfolding before her. For Barbara, her face held immense significance, serving as her most precious asset in the unforgiving world of the entertainment industry.
"Don't worry. I'm gentle when I act. Besides, Ms. Hersey has already fainted. She won't feel a thing."
The knife still pressed against Barbara's cheek, Alina gestured with it, deliberately speaking into her ear.
"Right here should be good. The skin on the cheeks is the most tender."
"Oh!" In a sudden moment of shock, Barbara's eyes flew open wide with terror.
"Alina, I was wrong. I apologize... I apologize!" Desperation overcame her, and she pleaded with Alina, her voice trembling with fear and regret. She apologized profusely, understanding that any movement on her part could result in the blade cutting into her face.
Alina's sneer held no warmth as she locked eyes with Barbara, her gaze devoid of mercy. She intentionally exposed the truth, emphasizing the calculated nature of Barbara's fainting episodes. "Ms. Hersey's health is quite miraculous. You faint and wake up when you want to."
"Mr. Sutton, my medical skills aren't bad, right? Why not let me handle Ms. Hersey when she faints in the future? I won't charge you any medical fees!"
The revelation struck Johnny's consciousness, leaving him to ponder how often Barbara had employed this deceptive tactic before.
"Alina, you're truly ruthless!"
"Is that so? Thanks for the compliment.

ersey, I'm still too kind."
Oh, you are not feeling well. What if you faint again when clarifying?
How about I make two cuts to vent my frustrations? Ms. Hersey, what do you think?"
"Apologize! I apologize!" Barbara had no choice.
The humiliation today would be repaid twice in the future!
Online, netizens expressed their opinions and enjoyed the spectacle.
"There's definitely no turning back on this matter. If there is, I'll eat dung upside down!"
