Esther strutted into the makeup room with the full arrogance of an A-list celebrity. Her gaze swept over everyone present. As soon as she saw Savannah, shock was painted all over her face. Immediately after, the surprise quickly morphed into anger."Savannah Lexington, why are you here?"The makeup artist started to explain, "Ms. Lexington is—"With her chin in the air, Esther cut her off with a cold, commanding voice. "Savannah, you need to learn to admit defeat. Just accept the fact that you're not good enough for the role. It really won't do you any good causing trouble here!"Everyone in the room had already greeted Savannah and had come to learn that she had been cast as the second lead actress. As a result, Esther's outburst now seemed a little ridiculous.The atmosphere grew intensely awkward. The makeup artist bit the bullet and spoke hesitantly, "Ms. Stone, I think there's been a misunderstanding. Ms. Lexington is playing Yvette Young, the second female lead.""What?" Di

"Esther Stone, that stupid bitch! Can't she go one day without stirring shit up?" Natasha didn't hold back with her curses on the other end of the line."Just ignore her. The more she shows off now, the harder it'll hit her in the face later," Savannah replied, seemingly unaffected.As soon as she finished speaking, the assistant director came over to remind her that she was in the next scene.Savannah hadn't expected to shoot a scene with Esther this soon into the filming.Her character, Yvette, was the male lead's comrade, a highly skilled secret agent. She had once rescued the kidnapped female lead, Sienna, and became her close friend. Later on, Yvette would sacrifice herself by taking a bullet for the male lead. The two leads would then frequently reminisce about their fallen friend together.The first scene of the day was the kidnapping scene.Esther was tied up and being dragged around by several men. Savannah was to chase after them to rescue her, which included a fight

"I understand," Paige replied. Over the years, they had always relied on the trending news to craft Esther's image as a dedicated actress. As a result, they had become quite adept at it.Oliver arrived on set later that afternoon.Esther clung to him for the bragging rights, keeping him by her side the whole time. The two of them wandered around the filming area, practically glued together.Most of the afternoon's scenes featured Savannah and the lead actor.Savannah danced gracefully in a fitted sheath dress. Her fair skin seemed to glow under the lights. Coupled with her slender waist, she seemed to draw all attention to her. Everyone on set—actors and crew members alike—couldn't tear their eyes away.Esther's hatred boiled over as she glanced over to find Oliver staring as well. His gaze was filled with awe, and there was even a hint of infatuation too.At that moment, Oliver seemed to see the stunningly beautiful Savannah from years ago. He remembered how he felt when she agr

"Alright, don't cry. Don't worry; I won't let anyone hurt you or the baby… As for Savannah, she can't play that role any longer," Oliver comforted her with a hug before turning to leave the room.However, he didn't notice the glance exchanged between Esther and Paige nor the cold gleam in Esther's eyes.No one should be allowed the chance to steal her limelight in that production.…After finishing the scenes that day, Savannah returned to the hotel. As soon as she got out of the shower, a sudden pounding came on the door."Who could be visiting so late?" her assistant, Jodie Sanders, wondered as she scurried over to answer the door. Before she could ask, an enraged Oliver shoved her aside and barged into the room.Savannah's long raven hair was still damp from the shower. It cascaded down her shoulders, ending at her waist. She was wearing a white camisole nightgown as she stood barefoot. She looked like a pure, ethereal angel who had mistakenly wandered into the mortal world.

The excuse sounded a little ridiculous, but that was the nature of the entertainment industry—the truth got twisted, and decisions were determined by how much backing one had.Savannah naturally wasn't going to cling to something she'd lost. She quickly packed her things and asked Nataha to pick her up.While leaving the hotel, she happened to spot a staff member carrying crates of imported fruits and drinks to the set."Esther is treating everyone to drinks and fruits. The fruits were air-flown in, so they are especially fresh. Mr. Frost had someone send these over." Esther's manager, Paige, instructed the staff to hand out the fruits and drinks to the actors and crew members on set."Thanks Esther! Thanks Mr. Frost!" When everyone received their fruits and drinks, they happily praised the two.When Esther saw Savannah, she slowly approached her with a drink."Oliver always gives his all when he does things for me. Savannah, this is the kind of treatment that Mrs. Frost should r

Savannah set her suitcase aside in a corner and walked up the wooden staircase. "Wanda, I'll go take a shower first. Please bring the pudding to my room.""Sure."Savannah went into the master bedroom. She took a relaxing bath in the huge hot tub. Then, she stood in front of the mirror, blowing her hair dry.All of a sudden, the sound of her phone ringing rose above the whirr of the hairdryer.Savannah turned off the hairdryer. Wrapping herself in a large towel, she answered the phone.Maxwell's deep, cool voice sounded over the phone. "You have five minutes to come downstairs.""Five minutes is not enough—" Before Savannah could finish her sentence, he hung up.She stared at herself in the mirror. Besides the towel, she was stark naked. Yet, Maxwell gave her five minutes to go downstairs. What kind of joke was that?Savannah got dressed as quickly as she could. Without even doing her hair, she rushed downstairs.There was a black Cullinan parked outside the condo. Standing ne

"'The Lurker'?" Charles asked. Beacon Films was working on many serieses right now, but the most important one was definitely "The Lurker", the most anticipated project of the year.Swirling his drink slowly, Maxwell neither confirmed nor denied it."Since she's with you, I'll make sure that she gets special care," Charles continued. They were both clever people who could easily guess the other's intentions. For a matter so small, he didn't mind doing Maxwell a favor. There was a lukewarm smile on Maxwell's face as he gazed into the distance.Not far away, Savannah was holding a tray of small cakes. Next to her was Gary and another female celebrity whom she knew relatively well.Her name was Celeste Haze. She was in her 30s and was considered to be a senior figure to Savannah. "Are you planning to officially return to the industry? That's great. Like I said before, retiring would be a waste of your talent.""Yes. I took your advice and decided to continue making an impact in the

Savannah hesitated for a moment. "You don't have to do this again next time. I owe you too much. I can't afford to pay you back."Maxwell's warm hand was still holding her wrist as he kept his emotions in check. After a moment, he laughed self-deprecatingly and let her go.Savannah hurried to the elevator. When she returned to her condo, she was still a little dazed."You're back, Sav," Wanda greeted her with a smile. "Were you at a banquet earlier? You look so pretty.""Yes," Savannah answered noncommittally, sitting on the couch in a trance.The diamond fragments on her dress glittered brightly, reflecting the light from the chandelier overhead. How could Maxwell not have picked a beautiful dress? He had always had good taste."What's the matter? Are you upset?" Wanda grew worried, seeing how quiet she was being."I'm fine. I'm just a little tired. You can go and rest. You don't have to worry about me." Savannah shook her face, forcing a small smile.She wasn't upset. Rather,
