Chapter 1: Entertainment world

Aurora Gabriel is on set filming. She watched the man and woman struggle back and forth for more than an hour and still hadn't finished filming a scene, which made her yawn. Director Cadell was angry, he scolded the actor and actress very hard to hear.

Aurora sat nearby, looking at them humbly apologizing to the director. She couldn't help but sigh. When filming, they have to accept being scolded in order to improve. That's the harshness that an actor has to endure

Aurora Gabriel was originally an honorable lady, entering the entertainment world conveniently, with no worries. She has never disparaged those who come up from empty hands. What she despises the most is those who do not measure themselves, rely on unclear relationships or sell their bodies to become actors.

Ciara Fidelia is a prime example. Aurora Gabriel looked at her NG for the twenty-eighth time in a single shot. Aurora silently sighed.

If Ciara were a model as she used to, she wouldn't be as scandalous as she is now. Ciara's acting was so bad that no one wanted to cooperate; therefore, she had to rely on a dubious relationship to get this role. That made the whole crew hate her.

Aurora Gabriel doesn't care too much. Someone like Ciara Fidelia, she doesn't want to pay attention at all.

"Aurora, someone is looking for you."

Assistant Fiona motioned to her, Aurora Gabriel turned to look. The one who came looking for her was Shanley Theodore.

This is not the first time Shanley Theodore has come to the set to find Aurora Gabriel, and everyone in the crew got used to his sudden appearance. Aurora is the young lady of the Gabriel family and Shanley is the first young master of the Theodore family. They knew each other from childhood to adulthood.

Everyone silently praised Aurora Gabriel's good luck, beauty, and acting is also really good. Even her loyal childhood friend, Shanley, always supports her and often goes to the set, sometimes even buys food for the crew.

For a generous person like Shanley Theodore, every time he comes, he receives the respect of the whole crew. Aurora Gabriel is also quite gentle, not looking like an arrogant lady, making everyone very sympathetic.

This time Shanley Theodore came in a bit of a hurry, not even paying attention to the crooked tie. He went to find Aurora Gabriel, his face showing a slightly serious expression.

"Aurora, why don't you answer when I call you?"

"I'm filming, what's wrong?"

"Your mother can't call you, so I have to call you. Go home quickly, something happened to your family."

Shanley Theodore is no joke. Aurora Gabriel realized this issue must be serious, otherwise Shanley wouldn't be this worried. She quickly packed her things and went with Shanley.

Arriving at home, Aurora Gabriel was stunned to see a group of people in black clothes going in and out of the villa. Not only that, they also took away the furniture in the house. The workers ran around creating an extremely chaotic scene.

In the house, her mother cried and sat on the floor. Her father was not here anymore. Aurora Gabriel was scared to death, rushed to help her mother get up, helplessly watching strangers go in and out of her house.

Aurora Gabriel's father - Matthew Gabriel was arrested for several commercial crimes. The court now has to seal all assets including this villa, and her father is also detained by the police.

Aurora Gabriel fell down, how is that possible?

Her father was a man who lived a pure life, and could not do anything at all. But during the detention, family members were not allowed to meet, so Aurora Gabriel and her mother helplessly watched all assets sealed. The family separated.

Shanley Theodore did not know what to do. He took Aurora and her mother to an empty apartment of his to stay temporarily.

Aurora Gabriel still can't get over her depression, why can things turn around so quickly?

The news is broadcast on television immediately, which also means that Aurora Gabriel will be greatly affected.

Everything happened so fast that Aurora Gabriel couldn't keep up.

"Vera, It’s me… Aurora."

Vera is Aurora Gabriel's manager. She is known as the ‘gold’ manager. At the same time, Vera is also the one who led many stars to the top. Vera's great enemy is Xavia, a veteran manager who uses all tricks to force her actors and actresses to sell their bodies to achieve their goals.

The two are like sworn enemies.

When Aurora's family is in trouble, Aurora's reputation is also affected. Vera will have to think of a way to help Aurora deal with scandals related to her private life. And the happiest person after this unexpected incident is definitely Xavia. She must have been bouncing around in joy when her opponent had this problem.

However, no matter what problem Vera got into, she was determined to protect her actors and actresses. Being an excellent manager, Vera calmly thought of a way to fix it.

"Where are you? Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, did the company call you?"

"Yes. The news of your family has had a great influence, not only on the business but also on the entertainment world. The company is also trying to quell the chaos.”

"It was me who got everyone involved."

"No problem. But where are you now?"

"I'm at a friend's house."

“Temporarily putting your family aside, this is more important. That's my role in the upcoming movie with Ciara. Do you know that Paradise's rival company is Heaven?”

"I know, what's wrong?"

Vera pushed the frame of her glasses, even a serious expression.

“When I received the movie you were filming, Heaven company was also hesitant about that movie but they did not dare to confront you, because you had a strong backing from your father. Now, you have lost that help, Heaven wants to take the lead role for Ciara and remove you from the crew."

“Damn it! How can it be so fast?"

Aurora Gabriel was bombarded with one thing after another.

Why? How could they take everything from her at once?

"That's what the entertainment world is like, I'm thinking of a way, but the amount of capital spent is quite large, the company can't settle it at all."

“But this is my only chance. I can't lose this role. If I lose it, my whole acting career will be over. My family has only me to support.”

Aurora Gabriel almost lost everything. Her family also separated, now she is the spiritual pillar for her mother, the only hope of the family.

Now, Aurora Gabriel is really desperate and stuck.

“We need money, can you borrow it?” Vera said.

“My family is in this mess, how can I?"

“Shanley Theodore, young master of the Theodore family, is your childhood sweetheart. Can he help you?"

"Hen can’t! Absolutely not!”

The Theodore family doesn't like people in the entertainment world. Even the Theodore family members have prejudice against singers and models, no matter how famous they are. They will never give that kind of people any money.

By the way, Aurora and Shanley Theodore were just friends growing up together, she didn't love him at all. She does not have the courage to borrow such a huge amount of money from him.

"Then you're done. I also know this is the only hope, I can't take this opportunity to push you down that path of tarnishing your reputation."

At this point, Aurora Gabriel's mind suddenly flashed. Now the only way is to personally go out and ask for capital from investors.

“I… let me go.”

"What do you say?”

Vera shouted into the phone, it was impossible for a girl like Aurora Gabriel to sell her body for money.

“We're out, I have nothing to lose."

Aurora Gabriel burst into tears, Vera was also a little resentful.

"I'll think about it."

“We have to do it, it's okay, just this once. I have to get this role in the movie, or I'll lose everything."

“Aurora, I can't…”

"I've made up my mind, help me find someone, I'll apply for sponsorship myself."
