He Left Me Broken Now He Wants Me Back Chapter 32
In the end, Mia agreed to publish a full, public retraction.
She admitted the theater company had refused the interview. She admitted the footage had been deceptively edited. She admitted there was no evidence that the investment came with any personal conditions attached.
The retraction replaced her original article and was pinned to the top of her page for thirty days.
Her show suspended her. The compensation the theater company received from the settlement wasn’t huge, and Jenna wanted to divide it among the cast.
I shook my head.
“Use it to upgrade our security and surveillance. From now on, when someone here says no, nobody gets to just keep barging in with a camera.”
Jenna looked at me for several seconds.
“You’ve really changed.”
“How?”
“Before, when you got hurt, you would just handle it on your own and never say a word.”
I slid the settlement papers into a folder.
“I’m still handling it myself. I just finally learned that handling things yourself doesn’t mean you have to put up with everything.”
That night, Mia was waiting for me outside the theater.
She had no cameraman, no assistant.
“Did you really have to take it this far?”
I stopped just inside the glass doors.
Security was standing a few feet away.
