Harold and Freya returned home with painful injuries from being hit. Unable to bear the pain, they wentto the hospital for a check–up in the middle of the night. Harold’s injuries were apparent, but theexamination showed they were not serious. Freya’s face was still slightly swollen before the check- butit had gone down by then. Despite their futile struggle. they had to endure the pain and sleepless.nights at home.

Titus and Jodic also couldn’t sleep that night.

The next day. Simone went to the office, and Lisa knocked on the door and entered. She handed aform to Simone.

“Miss Gray, there have been many invitations for scripts and variety shows lately. I have organizedthem for you to review.”

Simone took the form and said, “Okay. Let me see

-up.

The form listed various variety shows and scripts, along with the directors and their specific invitationsto Simone or Fiona. Everything was recorded clearly

With Lisa by her side, Simone felt more at ease.

Most resources actively contracting to her were invitations for Simone on the form. On the other hand,the invitations for Fiona were mostly for marriage–themed scripts. There were also two variety showsabout relationships.

Simone asked Lisa, “Do you think these resources suit me and Fiona?” Lisa was attentive and hadgood. comprehension skills. Simone had an idea of grooming her into a top–notch agent and bringingin new artists for the studio in the future. They had discussed this before, and Lisa had considered thisquestion while organizing the information.

She smiled and replied, “I don’t think there are any suitable scripts or variety shows for Fiona. If sheaccepts them, not only will it consume her current popularity, but it may also limit her acting range andtypecast her.”

Simone nodded and said. “That’s what I think too. Reject all the scripts and variety shows looking forFiona. I plan to fight for her to get the leading role in a spy war film.”

Lisa knew Simone’s plan and was also interested in becoming an agent. She would first fulfill her roleas an assistant and continue to learn. So, she took the initiative to gather information about the newdramas being prepared recently.

“Are you referring to Leyla, who caused harm to Fiona in the previous drama?” Although that drama

spy war film, the male lead was a trendy actor known for his acting skills. Many veteran actors were thewolved, making it highly anticipated.

While popularity was significant, audiences now paid more attention to acting skills and plot whenwatching dramas and movies. Many internet celebrities were also working hard to improve their actingskille and taking progress.

Simone said, “Yes. The director has already terminated the contract with that person, so I plan to

intercept and offer the role to Fiona”

Leyla, who suddenly gained popularity, was terminated by Gray Entertainment. The director couldn’t letsuch a tainted artist become the female lead. This drama was Scmbag No. 2x way of makingconnections for Leyla to become the female lead. Now that she had been terminated, GrayEntertainment was preparing to promote another actress.

Simone had read the script and found it a great test of her acting skills. The role was very prominent.and there was hope that it would bring Fiona back to the ranks of top actresses. So, it was necessaryto intercept and take the role.

Lisa fully supported this and said. That’s a good idea. Secure this role and perform well. Not only will itembarrass Leyla and Gray Entertainment again, but it will also greatly help Fiona’s acting career.”

Simone asked again, “What do you think? Are there any suitable resources for me?” Lisa momentarilythought. The film script about the educated youth’s mother looks good. However, the subject matter isbit cold, and the box office will likely not be high. There’s also that fantasy drama directed by a well-known director, with a dramatic script with some highlights. With a large investment, the post-production can be done very well. I think it has the potential to become a hit.”

Then, she changed the subject and said honestly. “But the male lead for this drama has already beensigned by Leon On Jodie’s side, there is also an intention to cast her as the female lead. Titus foughtfor her. If it weren’t for the previous incident, her role as the female lead would have already beenconfirmed.”

Simone noticed that Lisa was very talented and had tried to understand and study. Everything she said.was on point.

“For the film about the educated youth, you can contact the director and tell them I’ve accepted it. Thiswas the award–winning film I acted in during my previous life. I liked this script, and I will perform. evenbetter this time.”

“Great.” Lisa was somewhat surprised but also felt that this was Simone’s style of doing things. Shethought momentarily and asked. “What about the fantasy drama? The director’s intention is for you tochoose either the female lead or the second female lead. The rest can be given to Jodie.”

Simone smiled. “They’re quite direct.” The meaning was clear. Besides casting, they also wanted touse the relationship between the three to generate some buzz. This was a regular operation,straightforwardly stating their intentions without causing any resentment. It showed sincerity, as they lether choose the female lead or second female lead first and gave the rest to Jodie. It must be said thiswas a slap in Jodie’s face.

I’m planning to take the second female lead role, but the script should be performed according to thecurrent setting without intentionally weakening or changing the second female lead’s storyline. Ask thedirector if it’s possible: if so, I’ll sign.”

In her previous–life, Jodie became popular in variety shows and immediately took on this fantasy drats.Because of its high production quality, the famous director and the leading actor. Leon Foster, wereinvolved, and the script was also good, so this drama became a hit. Although Jodie’s acting skills Wereaverage, with the support of Leon and Titus, bez character was made more likable, and she alsohesame popular On the other hand, the actress whod the second female lead at that time did notLandin from the popularity and was also heavily criticized online for “bullying Jodie

2/3

In the drama setting, she was overshadowed by Jodie

Furthermore, due to the support from Titus and the Gray Family, the director requested the screenwriterto make significant changes to the storyline of the second female lead

Instead of portraying the character’s aura, it made her unlikable and became a stepping stone for theprotagonist’s “beauty”

However, Simone genuinely liked this character.

This drama revolves around a cold and aloof immortal who deeply loves his wife, and the female leadis Jojo, a character created by Jodie in the variety show.

In the previous life, this movie downplayed the identity of the second female lead and focused onhighlighting the cold–heartedness of the immortal. However, Jojo’s charm moved him, and the focusshifted to his love for his wife.

Due to the unfavorable changes made to the second female lead, she appeared as a deranged witchand a malicious supporting character.

But in reality, the original identity of the second female lead was the wife of the immortal protagonistbefore he joined the immortal sect in the mortal world.

She was also the wife who was killed by the immortal.

When the immortal killed his wife, heaven granted her a glimmer of hope, allowing her to survive andallowing her to enter the demonic path.

With a clear sense of love and hate towards her ex–husband, she naturally sought revenge and wantedto kill him justifiably.

Although the heavens favored the male and female leads and ultimately were not killed, they left atprofound impression on people.

Simone liked this character because she was well–developed.

Therefore, she wanted the director to maintain the original characterization of the second female lead.as portraying it would make her outstanding and overshadow the female lead.

She aimed to highlight the pure and innocent nature of the female lead’s character.

If another actress were playing the female lead, Simone wouldn’t compete for the spotlight ornutentionally try to overshadow her.

However, if the female lead remains Jodie, she would be happy to be compared in her.

After all, thic to what fodie used to enjoy doing the most.

Jodie wanted to regain popularity through this dran so she needed to ask for her consent.

„This time, let Jodie take on what she didn’t
