"Grace will bring investment into the project! The investor said that as long as Grace can make a guest appearance, he is willing to invest another 30 million dollars...”"30 million dollars! Evil capital!"Gail slapped the table and cursed, pouting."Capital is not evil. Many people regard it as a precious treasure."Jessica breathed a sigh of relief, "It’s OK. We will save the trouble. Later, I will tell the PR manager of the Wasin Group to stop, lest they do too much useless work."Gail was full of anger, "Don't do it! Even if we can't get the role, we won't let her feel comfortable! Ask them to dig up dirt on her!"Jessica smiled faintly, not in a hurry to refute Gail who was furious."Damn it!"Gail gasped for breath, "This role should have been yours. If Director Bacchus hadn't been attracted by you and the popularity of the Adventure Show, he would not have cast actress among the guests of the Adventure Show!How the hell could Grace grab your role! If you get it, you w
"What twist?"Gail was all smiles. She said, "I just received internal information. It is said that Grace is replaced by you!""You must be dreaming." Jessica looked indifferent."It's true! Some big shot told the producer that as long as you can play a cameo role, he is willing to unconditionally invest 50 million dollars more than the investor behind Grace!""..."Jessica kept silent. Gail was afraid that she still didn’t believe her, so she said, "I'll send you a screenshot of the messages. Done. Take a look."Jessica picked up the phone suspiciously and looked at the picture. Gail's ex-boyfriend did have said that Director Bacchus and the producer had just met and that Jessica was slated to make a guest appearance in the movie.Gail had also curiously asked if he was joking. He had replied to her that the people in the crew also felt it was sudden, but everyone was optimistic about Jessica's cameo. This role was quite interesting, and everyone was happy now.After hanging u
After a one-day break at home, Jessica went back to work. As soon as she finished arranging the recent program schedule in her office, she heard someone quarreling outside.Jessica opened the door. It was Paige who stood a meter away from the office, crossing her arms and raising her head, shouting at two of the directors.“Director Cooper said that everyone could take part in before the host list of the girl-group show settled. Why did you come to her directly? Did you treat the rest of us like nothing?"Jessica got it immediately that she was the one Paige had a problem with.These two directors were seniors in the TV station, so they were in charge of this big girl-group talent show. It seemed they barely ran into this kind of awkward situation before, and they could to nothing about Paige but try to reason with her."Director Cooper had announced it at the meeting yesterday. He said the talent show was complicated and important, so the best alternative should be Hammer and Jes
Jessica's long eyelashes fluttered as she said after a brief pause, "I'm not sure, but you can't be too careful. If the studio had really taken me on board without hesitation just because of a capital infusion, I would've started to worry about the quality level of the movie."Gail bobbed her head. "I have faith in you. Director Bacchus is attending the victory party tonight as well?""Director Cooper personally sent him an invitation." Jessica nodded.Gail walked once around Jessica's office and then said mysteriously, "Where's the heroine costume you prepared for the party? Let me take a look."Smiling, Jessica slid her a sidelong glance. "There's no heroine costume.""It's your evening. How could you not have one?" Gail was skeptical.The Charity Gala held by the TV station the other day had been a great success. Although there had been a mistake with Hammer's memo card, and a male fan had proposed to Jessica out of malice, those incidents had been the very reason why the view
Jessica was shocked for a second and reacted in the next second. 'He must be a hooligan. I have to save myself.'Before the man pushed the door again, Jessica threw down her dress, stretched one of her legs, braced it against the back wall and tried her best to close the door.Feeling that she was pushing the door constantly, the man outside was anxious. "Jessica, it's me. Stop!"Jessica reacted subconsciously. 'Is it Hammer?'Hammer's voice was clear and charming. He was known for being born to have a beautiful voice. They had worked as colleagues twice, so she was familiar with his voice well.Jessica let go and peeked through the door crack. It was Hammer indeed.Jessica felt panicked and scared before, but now she was confused. 'Why does Hammer come to the woman's locker room and want to open my door? He looks indecent...''Should I be wary of him or not?'Hammer knew her thoughts. He said, "I come here to ask you to check your dress well. Something is wrong with it!"His
Jessica took off her left high-heeled shoe, picked it up, and found a thin, sharp needle at its bottom.She turned it over and had a careful look, finding the needle had been nailed into the shoe from the bottom… What a painstaking effort…She believed what Hammer had told her, so she was cautious and repeatedly checked her dress.She thought that person would just cut a split or a weak spot of her dress to embarrass her in public.But unexpectedly, the person was so ruthless and really wanted to hurt her!Jessica took out her mobile phone and called Gail.The moment Gail picked it up, she asked, "Jess, are you on your way? I'm already here. When will you arrive?"Jessica asked calmly, "Are there many people there?""Yes, are you still changing the plan?""No, I've had an incident. I'll be there later."Gail found something wrong with her voice and asked, "What's wrong? I'll go back now!""There is no need. It's no big deal."Jessica told Gail about the needle at the bottom
"Do you think I am talking nonsense?"Paige had prepared what she would say a long time ago, and she was not afraid of Director Cooper's reprimands and warnings. She continued to instigate, "Oh, I almost forgot that Director Cooper and Deputy Director Tanner have helped Jessica a lot since she joined the TV station. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to gain a firm foothold so fast. I shouldn’t have criticized her in front of you because you will definitely protect her! But I still have to say it out! It is your indulgence toward Jessica that made her so arrogant.”Director Cooper furrowed his thick eyebrows, and Tanner's old face turned purple.Paige had a grasp of a situation and knew what to do. At this moment, it was no use for them to say anything. If they spoke up for Jessica, Director Bacchus would think that Jessica was really pampered in the TV station.The two directors kept silent, and Paige was very gloating. She walked to Director Bacchus and said, "Director Bacchu
"My dress and shoes were put in the closet in the lounge. Did any of you see who tampered with the shoes?" Jessica wheeled around and asked the female colleagues around.All of them shook their heads. Jessica did not wait for their responses but went straight to Paige, asking, "What about you? Do you know who did it?"Paige panicked for a second, then calmed down, and widened her eyes, "What do you mean? Why don't you ask others?""I’ve asked them just now. Didn't you hear it?" Jessica said, "I asked several colleagues before I walked over. But none of them had reacted so angrily as you are doing. Are you trying to cover something up?""Jessica, I am sick of this!"Paige straightened up and said aggressively, "With someone backing you up, you are targeting me at will. But enough is enough! You must stop!""It's you who should stop!"Jessica threw the bag of the high heels onto the ground, facing everyone, and said in a steady voice, "Everyone, I think you have seen who is reveal
