Female Novel
Chapter 252
Chapter 252Stella knew very well that Daniel did not pick her because of her acting skills.
She did a good job, but there were a lot of other actresses who could do better than her. They had their fanbase and were morepopular than her too. She just did not stand a chance among them.
Daniel had no reason to pick her.
Stella kept quiet for a while before she pursed her lips and said, “Because I’m new, not signed by any agency, don’t cost afortune, and can act for a bit. | matched all your criteria for picking a cast, and I’m the perfect candidate for you to stand againstcapitalism. You don’t have to use anybody you don’t like on your own set, and you won't have to worry about offending anycompany if anything goes wrong with me.”
Daniel was stunned. He could not remember the last time he worked with a sharp actress like her.Stella’s face was just too deceitful. It would always mislead people into thinking that she was just an ignorant woman.Not only her but many actresses around her age and as beautiful as her were like that too.
They could gain a lot of fans by just looking pretty, and fame came too easily for them. So, they failed to find out their real valuesand finally made themselves the victims of market. competition.
However, Stella was different from those people. She knew that it was not mere luck that her the role. She was way smarter thanthat.
Daniel asked her, “Why did you still sign the contract if you already knew?”got
Stella said without hiding anything. “I need this job. Besides, | like the script very much too.” A look of approval flashed acrossDaniel's face, “Kelly is why Ibelia got replaced. We got into a disagreement while picking the cast. | had veto power, and | didn’tpick the right person. She got unhappy with me, but | wasn’t bothered by that. However, Ibelia was caught in some scandalssometime later.”
“Are you saying that Kelly was the one who exposed Ibelia?”
Daniel scoffed. “Who else could it be? It’s not her first time doing something like this. She would spend a lot of money to exposeour competitor’s actors to sabotage their viewership. Also, she would cheat her way into getting the TV station to air her showbefore her competitors. There’s no limit to what she would do if anything stopped her from making money or didn’t go her way.”
However, Stella thought otherwise. She figured that even though Kelly was a very goal-driven person, she only wanted money.So, she only got Bella into that show because she wanted the long-term dividend she could earn from social media like Bella.
Even though Ibelia was not as popular as the social media stars, her performance wasoutstanding. She also had a very good reputation among the viewers before the scandal brokeout
Ibelia would never be able to achieve something like that if nobody backed her. So, there was just no reason for Kelly to crosssomeone like her just to change the cast.
“In short, Kelly is an extremely petty and egotistical person. There’s no way she’d let things. slip after what you’ve done to her.I'm afraid she will do everything she can to put you down if she ever finds out that you’re Dusk Galaxy. Even | wouldn't be able tokeep you around if she had anything on you.”
Stella said, “I’m married. Does that count?”
Daniel wanted to roll his eyes. “Do you think you’re in a soap opera? Who cares if you’re married or not?”
“Tsk.” Stella clicked her tongue. “My manager said that | have the face of an idol.”
Daniel knew that Stella was not afraid. She also did not care at all after hearing what he said.
“How long can you be an idol? You've got to give up the idea of being a talentless idol if you want to be in this industry for a longtime. An actress is supposed to be good at acting. One can only be popular on social media because of their persona. The moreperfect the person’s persona is, the worse she'll end up if anything goes wrong.”novelbin
Everything that Daniel said to Stella since the audition was from the bottom of his heart.
He gave Stella a chance, but he knew he had other intentions too. So, he immediately called her up as soon as he discoveredthat Kelly was investigating her.
To be honest, he had high expectations for Stella apart from those purposes because he could see the genuineness in her eyeswhile she was acting.
