"Were you the one who told Xander about me?" Scarlett asked Logan as their car headed to the office.
Since last night she had been curious about how Xander knew her identity. Only a few people know that she is essential in the RAS, one of which is Logan.
And the most prominent candidates to leak her name are Logan and Uncle Harvey. As for Cruz, the man can be trusted. He would not sell her name to anyone else.
Logan glanced behind. He could see how serious the young madam's expression was.
Last night, he wanted to tell Ben, but he didn't have a chance — Angela interrupted them. Now he was relieved because Angela helped him. He might have betrayed his young madam if that woman hadn't shown up.
"Y-Young madam, it's not me. I didn't betray you, ma'am..." He stammered.
"Not you!?" Scarlett was surprised. She studied Logan's expression and could see how sincere he was now. However, if not him, then who leaked her identity? Uncle Harvey?
"Yes, young madam. I can promise you, or you can ask master Xander about this."
Scarlett just nodded, not wanting to talk about this anymore. She would discuss this with Uncle Harvey when they met. Now, she had to focus on reading Studio Phoenix's script.
pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ She was stunned when she concluded the script's genre; it is a fantasy genre film.
The synopsis is fascinating, about a young woman who wins an Olympic gold medal as a sharpshooter. She died in a car accident and transmigrated in the game as a weak female NPC. Still, she becomes stronger as the story progresses.
The more she read the story, the greater her curiosity. It made her want to know more.
This story is similar to the game she was working on, so she was immediately interested and couldn't stop reading it.
Now, she became curious about who wrote this script. She checked the screenplay, but she found nothing. There was no name of the story writer in the manuscript she was holding.
'This is weird!' She thought. And continue reading again.
Shortly after...
"Young madam, we have arrived!"
Scarlett was so intent on reading the script that she didn't notice that the car had arrived at a dedicated underground parking lot.
Not wanting to waste time, she immediately went to her office and locked herself in to continue reading the story.
While Scarlett was busy reading the script, Logan was also preoccupied with reading something on his laptop in the lounge. And an hour later, Cruz suddenly appeared with an obviously unpleasant expression framing his face.
Cruz went to Scarlett's office, but before he could knock on the door, Logan suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking the door. He raised his eyebrows, confused by Logan's actions.
"Logan, move… I need to talk to her!"
"Cruz, don't bother her. Boss asked me to guard her office and not anyone, including you, to disturb her, not even asking her for lunch..." Logan explained.
"Huh! She is supposed to have a meeting right now. Someone from Studio Phoenix called me and will be here in about fifteen minutes." said Cruz.
Now, he felt pressured because he had accidentally agreed to Studio Phoenix's appointment meeting with Scarlett last night.
He was in big trouble because he didn't tell Scarlett before. That woman would have killed him making such a necessary meeting appointment without asking her first.
'You are such an idiot, Cruz!! How can you sell your boss's identity over liquor?!' Cruz couldn't help scolding himself in his mind.
How did he explain it to Scarlett later!?
"You can message her first. Maybe she'll come out to meet you, right!?" Logan said and moved to the seating area to continue his work—Scarlett had asked him to arrange for her arrival on Island B tonight.
So, he's communicating with James now and doesn't have time to talk to Cruz.
After Cruz texted Scarlett, she joined Logan in the seating area.
"Logan, do you know what boss is busy with?"
"It looks like she's reading the script belonging to Studio Phoenix," Logan answered without taking his eyes off the laptop.
"Ah..." Cruz was surprised. Now, he prayed that Scarlett would accept the script. He was too tired to deal with Carter Riley, who never gave up trying to contact him and ask to meet Scarlett.
"Who is the person from Studio Phoenix who wants to meet Young Madam?" Logan was now looking at Cruz.
Actually, Logan was confused to hear that because he knew, this morning, Master Xander and Young Master Carter already knew the identity of the young madam. And they already discussed the script issues.
"Carter Riley!" Cruz's shoulders slumped as he exhaled deeply. "...I accidentally leaked the boss's identity to him last night and agreed to today's meeting. So..."
"What the hell, Cruz! So you're the one who leaked her identity?" Logan was stunned to hear that. No wonder Master Xander knew about Young Madam's identity.
Cruz scratched his head even when it didn't itch. He took a few deep breaths when he saw Logan looking at him in annoyance.
"I know, I know... I made a mistake. But I had no choice. I was drunk, and Mr. Riley tricked me. Damn it!!"
Cruz felt pressured because he knew he had made a big mistake and his boss would surely punish him.
Logan was speechless.
Later, Cruz's phone vibrated. He was surprised to see Scarlett replying to his message.
[Scarlett Boss:] Studio Phoenix already knows my identity.
[Scarlett's Boss:] It seems my uncle leaked my identity to them (Angry Icon) (Fire Icon)
Instantly his cell phone fell to the floor, too shocked to read a short message from Scarlett.
'Damn it!! I'm the culprit here, not Uncle Harvey!' Cruz uttered under his breath.
He stood up from his chair and said to Logan, "Man, tell the boss I'm taking my annual leave and will be back next week. Bye..."
Logan was confused by Cruz's words. Before he wanted to ask, the man had disappeared from the room; he ran like a cheetah chasing him.
