"It's a pity we realized this fact too late. We're a bunch of veterans who've been in the clothing industry for so many years, but we still couldn't beat a newcomer."Everyone else lowered their heads in guilt at the man's words.He was right; Caroline had understood a simple truth like this more deeply than veterans like them. Sure enough, arrogance was a hindrance to humanity. They would have discovered the problem long ago if they had been more modest.Looking at Layla, who was still murmuring in disbelief, the man who spoke up took a step forward and took out a resignation letter. "Ms. Layla, although it is uncourteous of me to resign at this time, I feel that I can no longer make any worthwhile contributions to this company. So it's better for me to leave."After he submitted his resignation, everyone else came forward to give their resignation in succession.Layla didn't seem to hear them at all. She kept looking at her table blankly, murmuring, "I won't lose." It seemed
"Today is a great day for all of us. We have to celebrate!" Cheryl heckled.Everyone else followed suit.Caroline looked at everyone and said resignedly, "Okay, it's not a problem. From the looks of it, no one is in the mood to work anymore. "All right, Cheryl. Help us book a restaurant in a hotel.""Okay." Cheryl quickly booked a place in the hotel's restaurant.Then, everyone headed toward the hotel. When they got downstairs, they happened to bump into Luke, who had come to see Layla.Luke also saw them and wanted to hide, but it was too late.Gavin called him heartily, "What a coincidence, Mr. Luke!"Right now, the last people Luke wanted to see were Caroline and Gavin. The sight of them made his bowels twist with regret. He had really been ignorant. He should have worked with Caroline from the start. Then, he wouldn't have lost everything like he did now. "Haha, what a big coincidence, Mr. Gavin. Are you going out for food? Then, I'll leave you to it.""Oh, come on!"
Jack was about to turn around and wake Caroline up. But he saw Kirk standing outside the car wearing a windbreaker and holding a coat, gesturing for him to be quiet.Jack understood his signal and quietly unlocked the backseat door.Kirk opened the door and gently covered Caroline's face with the coat to prevent her from waking up due to the bright lights. Then, he bent down and carried Caroline in his arms.After Kirk was done, Jack exited the car and gently closed the door. When he looked up, he saw Kirk carrying Caroline. He folded his arms and leaned against the car door. After watching them for a while, he shook his head. His boss was really doting on his wife. It was a pity they were … Jack didn't even know why they were fighting, but he really hoped they could make up soon. He watched them a little longer before getting in the car and driving away.Right now, Caroline was sleeping soundly in Kirk's arms. She even had a dream. She dreamt about the day when she had becom
After all this trouble, not only had Sonia's webseries become more popular, but she also became the most sought-after celebrity in the entertainment industry.Caroline, who was considered to be the driving force behind Sonia's success, had become a hot topic in the entertainment industry. Although Caroline wasn't the real contributor, she had insisted that Sonia would succeed. On top of that, she had managed to avert danger in the case of such a serious scandal. She had even taken this opportunity to take Sonia's popularity to a higher level.Even if veterans in the entertainment industry had handled this issue, they couldn't guarantee they could bring a D-lister's popularity to such heights in such a short time.Therefore, Caroline's feats as an outsider were even more noticeable. However, she didn't pay any mind to the world's prying eyes. In the past two days, she had basically been handling investments.Since the horoscope-themed outfits had become a hit, investors had co
Caroline said merrily, "All right!"After hanging up the phone, she booked a reservation at a barbecue restaurant near the set. Then, at around 4:00 pm, she drove to Sonia's set.Since Caroline had informed Sonia of her plans in advance, Sonia asked her manager, Helena Copley, to meet up with Caroline when she arrived.As the two walked to the film set, Helena said many nice things to Caroline. "Thank you so much, Ms. Evans. Sonia would still be an unknown D-lister if it hadn’t been for you."Caroline smiled at her words. "There's no need to thank me like that. Sonia and I mutually benefited from this cooperation. Besides, if she had no real talent, she wouldn't have the fame she has now, even with my help."Helena scratched her head. "Well ..."Before she could finish her words, the two heard a slap from the film set.Caroline looked at the source of the sound and saw Sonia, with disheveled hair and cheeks that were swollen from getting hit. The person who hit her was none ot
However, Daphne couldn't refute Caroline's words. After all, she just had a wonderful comeback! She bit her lips in frustration, and after a while, she couldn't handle being here anymore. In front of everyone, she stormed away to the dressing room.The director knew he couldn't keep filming under these circumstances, so he told Sonia, "Let's call it a day. We'll continue filming tomorrow."Sonia stood up with Caroline's help and nodded to the director and crew. "Thank you, everyone. Good job."The crew returned the pleasantries and then moved their equipment to pack them away. Caroline was touched to see Sonia remain humble even after becoming famous. People like Daphne, who had no portfolio or acting skills, could still become popular in the entertainment industry just because she was the wife of Eddy's second uncle.Meanwhile, Sonia had to endure humiliation despite having skills because she had no one backing her. At the thought of this, anger welled up in Caroline's che
Sonia was stunned. Her answer was similar to Helena's. This kind of thing happened often, so she was used to it."Actually, I met someone who was even more cruel." Sonia recalled the past without a hint of resentment. "In one of my shows, there was a scene where the leading female actress was supposed to torture someone. "But because someone on the set had secretly said that I was prettier than her, she actually proposed to torture me for real."She continued, "Thankfully, the crew didn't indulge in her insane plan and stopped her. Otherwise, I would look like an ugly pig right now."Seeing the bittersweet expression on Sonia's face, Caroline's expression turned serious. She asked, "Then, what did you do?""W-what else could I have done? I still got tied up and—" Sonia took a piece of beef. She dismissed it, saying, "It's fine, Caroline. Let's not talk about this anymore. Now, I've triumphed over my hardships."Caroline still had a serious expression as she advised, "Sonia,
Sonia was keenly aware that Caroline's mood was off, and she scratched her head. "Caroline, did I say something wrong?"Caroline looked back at Sonia and shook her head. "No …"After pondering for a moment, she asked, "Sonia, you've been an actress for several years, right? You must have read tons of weird scripts. Can I ask you something?"Sonia nodded. "Of course.""Have you ever read any scripts about a man who loves a woman but is also married to another woman?"Looking at Sonia's and Helena's stunned expressions, Caroline realized she seemed to have a problem and needed help.Fortunately, Sonia was very earnest and didn't think too much. Instead, after listening to Caroline's question, she started thinking about whether she had encountered a messed-up story like this. But she couldn't think of anything.However, the knowledgeable Helena was able to think of something. "Actually, situations like these are rare now, but they were very common in the past, especially in the 1
