Chapter 1064 Their Ruse
"Caroline, how many times do I have to tell you? You don't need to be so subservient in front of Little Bunny!" Caroline's agent exclaimed, her face full of concern for her. "Little Bunny did help you in the past, and you've been doing your best to help her too. You've been pulling resources for her and increasing her exposure both publicly and privately. Little Bunny has come this far in such a short time because of your hard work. You've repaid the favour she did for you! She's being ungrateful and taking advantage of your kindness. Some people are just insatiable, they think too highly of themselves. Think about it, did she give you that role out of genuine goodwill or was it just a handout? Why didn't she want that role? She probably couldn't handle it herself so she gave it to you. Don't be so stubborn about repaying her kindness!"
Naturally, Caroline's agent was more powerful than Caroline. Every sentence of hers elevated Caroline to the highest point while belittling Little Bunny. Caroline wasn't one to be underestimated either. She quickly agreed with her agent while looking embarrassed at the same time. She then said, "Don't say that about Little Bunny, she isn't like that at all. We've always had a good relationship..."
"You're still defending her!" The agent angrily interrupted her, exasperatedly saying, "I know exactly what you've done for her over these years. Her first high-end endorsement was given by you. And you even gave her the role in her first movie. And later on, you gave her so many shows and commercials. Your kindness to her has already gone beyond enough!"
"I just feel like since we're best friends, I should do whatever I can to help." Caroline carefully replied while looking afraid of upsetting her agent. In front of others, she appeared extremely kind-hearted. Whenever there were any negative news reports involving Caroline acting like a diva or anything else negative related to herself came out, her agents would take responsibility for everything.
"Your good intentions don't necessarily mean someone will appreciate them." The agent spoke up indignantly, "Look at what happened with your face after getting hit by her."
"It doesn't hurt actually..."
"It doesn't hurt?" The agent looked at her with sympathy. "I can't even bear to see her face, Stord."
The director watched the dramatic scene unfold before him, as did all the actors and crew on set. When Caroline's agent called out to him, he quickly responded. "I want to give Caroline an ice pack for her face. Can we shoot this scene later?" asked Caroline's agent. "Sure," the director nodded. "Let her rest for a bit and we'll shoot other scenes first."
"No, I don't want to delay the filming schedule." Caroline suddenly refused, seeming to be dedicated.
"It won't take long, go rest and adjust your state of mind first." Stord was friendly towards her. After today's incident, his impression of her had improved even more.
"Well, er, excuse me." Caroline left under her agent's protection in front of everyone's eyes.
Little Bunny was still on set when she heard all those lies that were deliberately spread about her by Caroline's agent. She didn't refute them because what would be the point? No one would believe her anyway. Everyone thought she didn't know how to repay the kindness and that she became worse when she tried to argue back. So Little Bunny endured silently and suppressed her anger because, after all, Caroline was only a guest star who would leave soon enough anyway.
In showbiz where people often got slandered, it wasn't anything new for Little Bunny.
"You should also adjust your emotions." Suggested Stord to Little Bunny, in a natural tone, without being so gentle anymore.
Little Bunny nodded slightly. She turned around and left set while feeling everyone's pointing fingers behind her back. They must have been disgusted with her by now.
When she returned backstage, Tanya was indignant. Tanya wanted to rush over to defend her earlier but due to how intimidating Carolyn's manager looked like at that moment, Tanya couldn't muster up any courage. Caroline's agent was an experienced veteran who had been in showbiz circles for over ten years already. After all, Tanya was just barely 20 years old. Caroline's manager wasn't someone whom Tanya could compete against or even look straight into her eyes with confidence.
"Miss Little Bunny, why didn't you explain just now?" Tanya was so anxious that her eyes turned red. "You've worked hard for all these resources over the years, how can they all be credited to Caroline?! She has no shame!"
"What's the use of explaining?" Little Bunny remained calm as she looked at herself in the mirror with a big red mark on her face. "Caroline has been saying in the media for years that we have a deep relationship. It's already deeply ingrained in everyone's hearts. If I speak ill of her, it would only backfire on me."
"Caroline is such a scheming woman!" Tanya said fiercely. "She always plays the card of your relationship and takes advantage of her greater fame to do whatever she wants to you!"
Little Bunny wasn't feeling good right now either.
"I just don't understand why she suddenly targeted you like this. Even if there's no good friendship between you two, she shouldn't come and step on you like this today!"
first, Little Bunny didn't understand either. So she didn't have too much guard against what Caroline might do to her. But now it suddenly dawned on her.
Caroline wanted to take her revenge on her, to retaliate for being kicked out by Theodore last night. As someone so proud as Caroline, she couldn't accept Theodore's indifference towards her. The other reason was to get the role in Stord's next TV drama production. Although Stord had temporarily agreed to work with Caroline, both Caroline and her agent were afraid that things might change unexpectedly. So they deliberately blackened Little Bunny's name so that the director wouldn't dare use her again in his next project.
Caroline could go all out when it came down to achieving goals without any scruples or sympathy whatsoever.
"Miss Little Bunny, why not... resist a little bit?" Tanya suddenly gathered up some courage and said.
"Resisting will only make my reputation fall even faster."
"What I mean is..." Tanya looked at her hesitantly as if there were some words she couldn't say aloud yet.
Little Bunny frowned slightly.
"What I mean is, why not take advantage of Mr Wold's power? Mr Wold has such great authority, he can make anyone disappear from showbiz whenever he wants. As long as you ask him for help, Caroline will disappear from the industry immediately."
