Moreover… the director couldn’t help but recall how Jenny had felt so delightful in his arms last night.
The memory had him practically drooling at the thought.
Jenny had been quite clear that she would spend another night with him if he assisted in sabotaging
Esther’s role. The idea of such an attractive woman willingly spending time with him excited him
greatly.
“So, promises mean nothing to you. That’s truly disappointing.” Pearl contemplated trying to reason
with him but quickly realized this wasn’t someone open to reason, so she abandoned the notion.
“Alright, since you’ve made your decision, we won’t trouble you any further. I hope you won’t regret this
in the future.” With that, Pearl promptly ended the call.
Once he noticed the call had been disconnected, the director muttered to himself, “Pfft, this b* tch. How
dare she disrespect me? I’m doing her a favor by allowing Esther to be in this drama in the first place!”

“I really liked the script. It’s a shame it had to come to this,” Esther sighed, genuinely feeling
disappointed. This role was the perfect opportunity for her transition. If she succeeded, it could help her
shed many unwarranted criticisms.
“Do you still want to be in the drama?” Pearl looked at Esther’s disappointment and felt somewhat
uneasy herself.novelbin
“It’s alright. Even if I can’t, it’s not a big deal. Besides, we can always find better roles,” Esther replied,
not wanting to trouble Pearl. She would suppress her desires, as she wouldn’t forgive herself if Pearl
had to plead with that insensitive director on her behalf.
Esther was trying to comfort herself, but Pearl had other plans in mind.
“If you really want to be in the drama, I have an idea,” she said with a mysterious smile.
“Really? Can I still be a part of it?” Esther’s heart leaped with hope.
“Yes, if the gentle approach doesn’t work, we’ll try the tough approach.”
Esther couldn’t help but worry. “You’re not planning to give him a beating, are you? That’s a no-go.
Even if you could win, you can’t do that. What if he retaliates…”
“Don’t worry, I won’t do anything stupid.”
Yeah, right!
Pearl already had a brilliant idea in mind.
“Alright.” Esther was initially relieved but became anxious when she noticed the glint in Pearl’s eyes.
Despite feeling reassured at first, she suddenly felt anxious.
Pearl had been very cautious with what she had done before. She probably wouldn’t do anything
extreme this time.
Before leaving, Pearl made it clear to Clem that Esther shouldn’t take any acting roles for the
time being. She suggested that variety shows and commercials were acceptable, but acting jobs were
off-limits.
Clem was puzzled. This was a critical period for Esther’s career. Opting for only variety shows and
commercials would likely lead to a decline in her status.
Pearl wouldn’t make such a mistake, would she? But it was an order from her, so he couldn’t disobey.
After Pearl left the company, she called Feather and instructed, “Fifi, gather a few people ?tonight. We
have something to do.”
After ending the call, Pearl smirked to herself.
Let’s wait and see!
