Knowing that Genevieve was mad at Armand, Johanna gave her a reassuring pat on the shoulder.

"I heard that Beluga Media invested thirty million in Gustav's movie. The vice president of Beluga Media graduated from the same school as Gustav, so they are on good terms. Cooper knows him too, right? Tell Cooper to ask the vice president of Beluga Media for a supporting male lead for Bruce," she suggested.

Genevieve gave her a look. "Why are you so concerned about Bruce?"

"I used to be his fan. He's a hunk!" Johanna answered matter-of-factly. "Besides, we signed a contract with him to earn money. We can't ignore him, can we?"

Genevieve massaged her brows. "I'll ask him later."

They had a meeting that morning, so Johanna followed Genevieve to the conference room.

When they walked out of the elevator, Genevieve's secretary ran to them.

"Ms. Rachford, Joyce is waiting for you in the reception room," she reported. Afraid that Genevieve couldn't remember who Joyce was, she added, "She's Sylvie's ex-manager." Hearing that, Genevieve narrowed her eyes.

After getting a new manager for Sylvie, Genevieve hired someone secretly to contact Joyce. The person offered Joyce a high salary and agreed to pay the compensation for her. Hence, Joyce thought it was true and handed her resignation letter to Genevieve. Genevieve approved her resignation and told her to pay the compensation within a week.

After her resignation was approved, Joyce contacted the company to realize that there was no such person. She had been tricked.

As a result, Joyce had to fork out the money herself. Even if she could pay the compensation, Cooper had warned all production companies not to hire her. She was effectively blacklisted from the industry. There was no way out.

"Is she here to pay the compensation?" Genevieve asked. "If the answer is no, I won't see her. It's just a waste of my time."

"No," her secretary answered.

"Deal with her, then." Genevieve spun on her heels to leave.

Johanna overheard the entire exchange. After Genevieve left, she whispered something to the secretary, and they both went to the reception room.

Genevieve worked hard the entire morning. At one in the afternoon, she headed to Jan's house.

She had been to Jan's house three times in the afternoon to give Shirley violin lessons.

Under Genevieve's teaching, Shirley could play a complete song and was also more cheerful now.

Shirley beamed happily when Genevieve arrived and ran downstairs to welcome her.

"Ms. Rachford!"

Genevieve responded with a faint smile before she led Shirley upstairs.

Jan doted on his daughter. After Genevieve taught her for the first time, he immediately renovated an empty room into a music classroom the next day. Inside the room, Genevieve removed her jacket and placed it on a chair. "Shirley, I'll teach you a new song today!"

Shirley brightened up and nodded excitedly. "Sure!"

Genevieve taught her how to play and told her to practice the song herself. She was about to rest when her phone rang. It was a call from Jack.

When the call was connected, Jack told her, "Genev, looks like you've lost." His voice was deep and charming as usual.

Genevieve knew he had planted many spies to spy on her and that he knew everything that she did.

Marching over to the window, she stared out and pursed her lips. "As long as he isn't married to another woman, I still have a chance."

"Genev, why are you making things difficult for yourself?" Jack sighed.

Instead of responding to him, Genevieve hung up.

Right then, the housekeeper knocked on the door to bring her coffee and milk. "Ms. Rachford, do you want some snacks?"

"No, thanks." She planned to leave around four in the afternoon.

The housekeeper placed the coffee and milk on the table. She sneaked a look at Genevieve and left.

Genevieve sipped on the coffee to stay awake.

Perhaps she was too busy with work and didn't get to rest well, for the coffee didn't wake her up. Instead, it made her drowsy. She leaned back against the chair and soon fell asleep.
