NovelUpdateChapter 445:
Carrie wasn't feeling well, so the filming ended earlier than planned. The filming location was near the Myers
family’s company. As Carrie stepped out to catch a cab, she bumped into Kailee, who was laughing and chatting
with a group of friends. It appeared she had just cfrom drinking, her cheeks flushed, and her eyes had a
glazed, distant look.
When Kailee saw Carrie, she stumbled a bit, froze in place, and gave her a quick, sideways glance. Pointing at
Carrie, Kailee slurred, “You're such an embarrassment! Writing that ridiculous script and then stealing from
Katrina? How could Kristopher marry someone like you, a bad luck charm?”
The people around them quickly recognized Carrie as Kristopher’s wife. They weren't from top-tier families, but
they cfrom wealthy backgrounds more affluent and influential than the Campbell family. They were both
jealous and resentful of Carrie’s marriage into the Norris family. Seeing Carrie standing alone, they couldn't help
but mock her.
“Cinderella might marry into the royal family, but she still carries that cheap feeling. You trying to make a quick

“She’s only good for her looks, and those are barely passable.”
A blonde woman stepped forward, her voice dripping with sarcasm. “A woman from a new money family must be
great at pleasing men, huh? Maybe she’s good in bed. Someone like Mr. Norris probably has a thing for
cleanliness, doesn’t he? He wouldn't go for someone too messy, so he keeps her around, | guess. What's the
term for that again? A kept woman?”
The group erupted into laughter before she could even finish her sentence.
The sound echoed through the space, but suddenly, a sharp slap broke the moment, silencing them all. The
woman who had been slapped stood frozen, utterly shocked, clearly caught off guard by Carrie's direct
retaliation. Her face quickly reddened, swelling with the sting of the slap.
“How dare you hit me?” The woman shrieked, her face twisted in fury as she lunged toward Carrie, attempting to
slap back. Carrie, standing taller than the rest, took a small step back and swiftly grabbed the woman's wrist.
With a calm but piercing look, she turned her gaze to Kailee.
“Aren’t you going to rein in your friend? Or should I call Kristopher and let him know how you and your friends
are harassing me?”
Kailee hadn't expected Carrie to threaten her so openly. After a beat, she shot back, “What can you do, besides
whining to Kristopher? Is that all you're capable of?” Carrie blinked, a slight smile tugging at her lips.
“I learned from the best. Aren’t you the one who acts all helpless with your aunt? I'm not snaive girl just
waiting for you to destroy my life.”
Kailee shook with fury, her voice shaking as she finally managed to say, “But you were the one who hit my friend
first! How can you still be complaining?”
Carrie yanked the blonde woman and shoved her toward Kailee, letting go. The woman stumbled and collapsed
to the ground from the force. Standing over Kailee, Carrie spoke with icy precision.
“I am Kristopher’s legal wife, the young mistress of the Norris family. Your friend insulted me, calleda kept
woman. She didn’t just offend me, but she also disrespected the entire Norris family. Consider this a lesson.”
“What gives you the right to teach me?” Kailee snapped, backing away as she continued. “My friend's right. How
do you even deserve Kristopher?”
