Ailina’s POV:At that moment, my phone rang. I picked up the phone. “You are coming. Then I will get someone to open the door for you.”“Daisy, go open the door,” I instructed.Before Areiza could react, Jane and Jerry came in.Jerry greeted me politely, “Miss Reed, last night, we saw that you were interested in tea. So Director Jane prepared a few boxes of tea leaves. So you please take it.”“Thank you so much. You are so kind.” I said as I asked Alicia to take the tea.“Please have a seat.” I took the lead and sat down.After sitting down, Jerry went straight to the point and took out the contract for me.I saw through the contract and quickly raised a few questions. Jane explained to me one by one, and then we signed and stamped the contract.All were finished within 20 minutes.Areiza looked at all of these in a daze and suddenly screamed out.Jane and I both turned to look at her. She quickly reached out to cover her face. “Oh no, I lost my face in front of my idol.”“It doesn’t
Rican’s POV:In the evening, I came back and saw Ailina typing on the computer again. I felt strange. ‘Why is Ailina typing in front of the computer every day?; I walked over and took a look. I was shocked.“Are you writing a script?” I asked.“Yes,” she nodded.“Are you adapting ‘Joy of life?”“Yes.”“Do you want to be a screenwriter?” I chuckled.“I am a screenwriter,” Ailina replied as she typed.“Oh, then, may I ask for your pen name?” I teased.“Phoenix!” She replied with a smile.“Phoenix?” I was stunned.“Yes.” Alina nodded and smiled, “I know. Everyone says that I don’t like a screenwriter. You must also think that I am lying.”Before she could finish her words, I kissed her.After the kiss, I said affectionately, “I believe you.”She looked at me, “Why do you believe me?”“Because it’s you.”“Will you believe me no matter what I say and what I do?” She asked again.“I will.” I nodded and reached out to rub her head. “Are you lacking in investment?”She shook her head. “I don’
Jane’s POV:A week passed, and the other roles were almost ready. When the audition was about to end, a person suddenly came for the role of Night.When everyone was about to leave, she rushed inside. “Wait, give me five minutes. I only need five minutes. I want to audition for Night.”“Sorry, the Night has already been chosen.” The deputy director said.But she instead, “Please give me a chance. I only want one chance. Can you let me try?”I looked at the woman and felt that she looked a little familiar. After thinking for a long time, I remembered and smiled. “Are you the heroine in the play?”She nodded in agreement.“Then, why did you come to audition for a cameo role in our movie?” I was puzzled.Rose’s POV:Originally I didn’t want to come, but yesterday, I heard Miss white call Miss Wilson and said that Miss Wilson actually wanted to play the heroine in the movie version. I was suddenly excited and thought I might play Night who liked the heroine.“I think I can act well. Night
John’s POV:I walked over and asked the staff at the audition building, “Where is Jane?”A staff replied, “She has gone.”I frowned and stuffed some money into the staff’s hand. I asked, “Is there a female lead at the audition today?”Anya and I had been waiting for a long time, but we had not seen the female lead having an audition. The officials had not announced who the female was.The staff took the money and shook his head, “No.”“Thank you.” I was relieved. It seems that Rose was not here for the audition.I went back and said to Anya, “There is no audition for the female lead today. How many days has it been? What the hell is Jane trying to do? Our media is promoting you so hard. Why is she acting like she didn’t see anything and has not contacted us?”Anya also frowned and was anxious She said, “Why don’t you ask her? If we keep waiting, I won’t be able to work for the whole year.”I nodded. Then I managed to find Jerry.I asked Jerry out for a meal and told him about Anya’s s
Anya’s POV:I took out my phone and dialed Damian’s number.‘Hi, Damian. This is Anya speaking. I remember you told me that you would go back soon in our recent call. Are you back now?” I asked.He smiled and said, “Yes, I am back. I have been back for two months.”“Two months? Then why didn’t you call me? Last time you suggested that we have dinner together. It's been a long time since we didn’t see each other. Are you free tonight? Why not have a will together?” I advised.Damian remains silent for a moment. Then he agreed in the end, “Alright. I will see you at the King’s Hotel.”“Alright!” I agreed instantly. But I was worrying how could he choose such an expensive place like the King’s Hotel just for a meal. Although I earned a lot as an actress, I was a little afraid of the lower prices such as top-notch hotels.However, for the sake of the female lead of ‘Joy of Life.’ I had to say yes.I arrived early. However, I didn’t book a room or order any drinks. I just sat in the dining
Anya’s POV:I know that Damian had rejected me when he said this. I felt that my heart sank bit by bit. I had always felt that our relationship was very good. Before I came, I had thought that there was a great chance that I could convince him. But why did it become like this?I held my chopsticks and poked the side dishes on the plate momentarily. I didn’t know what to say.“Are the dishes not your liking? Do you want me to change some dishes for you?” He looked at me and asked.I shook my head, “No no,” I said.“Damian, in the past when we were in school, you would agree to anything I said. The past was really good. But now you have changed.”“People will always grow up. Not only I have changed, but you also changed. You have become beautiful, and I am old today. You invited me for a meal. I thought you were looking for an old classmate to reminisce about the old times. It turned out that you were talking about work. I am a little disappointed,” he said with a smile.I opened my mou
Mrs. White’s POV:Ailina's words for reasonable. I looked at Ailina, wondering whether I had misunderstood her.However, the woman in the photo I received yesterday was indeed Ailina.I was sure that it must be Ailina. She was the prettiest girl in the whole entertainment circle.I stood up from the ground and looked at Ailina. Then, I reached out to grab Ailina and said, in a pleading tone, “Please leave him. I have been with him for twenty years. We started dating at the age of 18 and got married at 20. I am used to being a young and beautiful girl. However, I lost my charm because I had spent most of my time taking care of our children and parents. You will know these one day. Please return him to me. Could you?”Ailina frowned slightly, meanwhile, many people around began to gossip about Ailina.“That’s why she can be the heroine of such a big movie. I don’t expect her to be a person like that.“The entertainment business is on the decline, not a single director will value acting
I didn’t pay much attention to Twitter. It was Jenny’s call that reminded her.Jenny said, “Ailina, you are awesome! You enter the industry and are on the topic list now. Look at Twitter!”Only then did I open Twitter. To my surprise, the overwhelming news is to get me out of the entertainment industry.I rubbed my chin and continued to flip through. Then I saw some comments which were thought-provoking.Most of them were from Anya’s fans.‘I think that Anya should play the heroine.’“I agree. Anya always pleads with the heroine in the TV shows directed by Phoenix Reed. Why not she in the ‘Joy of Life? The lead actress in the drama isn't Anya and the film isn’t her either. What’s wrong with the directors? Does he know how to choose roles?”“Yes. Anya’s performance was perfection. She should be the heroine! Replace Ailina with goddess Anya!”Looking at the comments that supported Anya, I asked Jenny, “Who do you think is in charge of this?”She laughed and said, “You don’t know? The on
James’ POV:Anaya smiled and threw her car key to the mall manager.Then, she held me and took the elevator upstairs.Anaya took the initiative to hold me. I was secretly happy. I turned my head and asked, “You have not eaten yet, right? What do you want to eat?”She said, “I am here for a beauty saloon. But if you have not eaten, I can eat with you.”I nodded, “I have not eaten yet. I’ll book a restaurant then.”“Sure.” She immediately nodded.I quickly made a call and booked a more stylish restaurant.We sat down. Just as we were ordering, my phone rang again. It was a call from the manager. “Mr. James, it didn’t work. She doesn’t want money for compensation. She wants to park the car here. What do you think we should do?”I was stunned and puzzled that there was someone who didn’t want money.In my impression only that tom
Jenny’s POV:After a few days of preparation, Ailina was also officially involved.I called her, “Ailina, do you need an assistant? I see other artists bringing assistants. You are the heroine and isn't inappropriate not to be one.”“I don’t want to. It’s too troublesome.” She replied indifferently. “It’s only two or three months. You have to handle the affairs in JK for these two or three months. Thank you.”I pretended to scold her. “It seems that I don’t usually handle those affairs. You are a good absentee leader. Now you even say such a word.”“Never mind. Isn’t this representative of a big boss? I was just saying that to be nice.” Ailina laughed. ‘It feels really good.”“Well, since you don’t need an assistant, you go by yourself. I am short of hands now. Call me if you need anything.” I said.“I se
Lewis’ POV:I was stunned for a moment, “What chance? I haven’t had any new plays recently. I am still in deep trouble with ‘Joy of Life’.”“It’s ‘Joy of Life’ the film version. Director Jane will shoot the film version of ‘Joy of Life.’ I didn’t get the heroine in the previous play, so I want to act as the heroine in the film version. Jane seems to have already decided on the heroine. Could you put a good word for me with Director Jane? You know, I love acting. My acting skills are personally taught by you. This role is really important to me. Director Lewis, please help me.” Anya pleaded with me.I touched my head. “Well, Anya, you have been in the circle for so long. You should know the rules. The directors usually do not interfere with each other when other choose roles.”Hearing this. Anya’s instantly face turned pale.I comforted her, “
Anya’s POV:I looked at myself in the mirror and touched my face. I immediately took out the makeup remover and took my makeup off.Looking at my slightly exhausted face, I was no longer as pure and fresh as I was back then. My eyes were a little dull, and there were a few wrinkles on my face.I suddenly covered my face and cried. “I can’t go back. I am no longer the original Anya.”The two stylish looked at me in a daze. They were both a little confused about why a first-rate celebrity was so unhappy.John said to them, “You guys leave. I want to talk to Anya.”After the stylish left, he held his hand and said, “Anya one wants you to go back to the past. You don’t want to go back to the past, right?”I nodded and replied, “I don’t want to go back. I don’t want to live like that anymore. I don’t want to be bullied again. I don’t want to have a walk on
Anya’s POV:I took a deep breath and tried to calm down. “John, I am sorry. I am just too nervous. I have not worked for half a year; I am just waiting for a ‘Joy of Life.’ My whole year will be wasted if I can’t get the female leading in the film. If an actress doesn’t appear in front of the public for a long time, people will soon forget her. I have been working so hard to become who I am today. I don’t want to give up and I can’t give up.”John also felt sorry for me. He patted me lightly and said, “I know. I know all of this. Anya, we have no choice now. We have failed to take down Ailina. I think you should ask Director Lewis for help. After all, you were once his chief female lead. He will at least give you a face. It is said that he has a good relationship with Director Jane. So go beg Director Lewis to plead for you.”I said through gritted teeth, “Director Lewis is related to Ailina. It was clear when at the scene of ‘Lowering the Bid. Can’t you tell that?”“Then what do you
Greyson’s POV:When Jayden and I walked out of the King’s Hotel, I felt too weak to walk.Just now, inside, Jayden only made a phone call. Then all my clients canceled the order, and the suppliers no longer supplied me with any raw materials.Jayden didn’t let me go bankrupt immediately but killed me slowly.I had no choice but to post a clarification on Twitter. Jayden was satisfied with my behavior.I want to ask Jayden to give back my business, but I know that it is impossible. I had lost a lot. To protect Clara, I might go bankrupt.Now everyone was questioning me who the home wrecker was and why I blackened Ailina on Twitter.I didn’t reply.Jayden gave me a look before leaving, which scared me to death.My wife saw me coming out in a sorry state and stepped forward to support me and asked, “Greyson, what’s wrong?”“Why are you here?” I looked at her.She looked around and said, “A woman asked me to come here. She said that she saw you and Ailina entering the hotel together. So s
Ailana’s POV:I looked up. When I saw Ricky come in, I changed my cold and indifferent attitude and instantly became like a cute little rabbit: “Ricky, you are here.” He bullied me and even said that he liked to bully others with his power.Ricky reached out to pull me into his arm. He rubbed the top of my head and looked at Greyson. His eyes were very indifferent, but there was a slight sense of approval in them. It was just a slight glaze, but it made Greyson feel as if his entire body was frozen. He could not help but shiver and stuttered, “Who is this gentleman?”Jayden, who came with Ricky, introduced, “This is the Chairman of Haytt Group, the current leader of the Alfonzo Estate, Mr. Rican Alfonzo.”This simple introduction frightened Greyson. He felt his leg go soft. He reached out to support the table beside him and barely stood.“Third… Third Master.” He stammered as his voice trembled.Ricky looked at him and asked in a calm voice, “I heard that you raised my fiancée?”There
Greyson’s POV:After receiving Clara’s call, I began to change my clothes and was ready to see Ailina. I had never seen this woman, so it was good to see her.“What are you going for?” My wife was still feeding the child. Seeing that I was going out, she quickly came over and asked.I frowned, “If there is something, why do you care so much? Take care of the children. The child cried again.”After saying that, I already carried my bag and walked out.She threw the bowl in her hand at me and screamed, “Greyson, are you going out to see that woman again? Why are you doing this to me? Why?”The elder daughter was already ten years old. The younger daughter was only three years old. When the two daughters heard the sound of smashing the bowl, they subconsciously cried. I turned back to look at the old woman in the room. Then I looked at the two daughters who could not be my successor. I was even more annoyed.I slammed a door shut and drove to the Kings Hotel.This was the first time I ha
Rican’s POV:After everyone finished eating, Mom pulled Ailina to chat. I went to the study to see Dad. Dad sat in front of the desk, with a cigarette between his fingers.“Since you have quit smoking, don’t smoke anymore.” I walked in and removed the cigarette from his fingers.“Sit down.” He sighed.I sat in front of him.“Rican, don’t let Ailina get into the entertainment circle. Be ready and get married to her. As long as she isn’t in the entertainment circle, our family can arrange any work she wants to do for her.”I asked, “Why?”“The entertainment industry is a dirty circle. If a woman walks in, she will lose herself. One day, she will not be able to find her way back.” Dad said emotionally.I was stunned momentarily, then smiled and shook my head, “No, Ailina knows what she is doing.”“She may know it now, but what about in the future? Everyone has vanity. If she enters that circle, once many people know her and become popular, she will enjoy that feeling. It will be difficul
