Behind the Spotlight

Chapter 1

"you're being outrageous, even for a groupie, he's only a four or five year old! What if he gets hurt?!"

Near the studio, a mess of fallen chairs littered the floor, and in the center of the crowd, Emily Summers shielded a shivering boy, Lucas Morrison, and glared angrily at an embarrassed Fiona Blake: "The chairs fell over because you didn't read the script carefully! It's a good thing the kid wasn't hurt, but I demand an apology!"

"Shut up, you're just a newbie, what are you? How dare you ask me to apologize?"

Fiona has been in the industry for many years, accustomed to the high and mighty attitude, obviously did not like to be accused by a newbie like this, "Not to mention that being hit by a chair won't kill you at all. This kid is lucky to be acting with me. Don't be a fool and think that if you play his mother in the movie, you can really be a mother, who knows if his father will dislike you!"

"You!"

Hearing Fiona such shameless words, Emily angry cheeks red, but she did not want to be complicit, but instead squatted down, gently caressing Lucas scared little face: "Tell Auntie, just now have not been scared, there is no where on the body pain?"

"Mom, Xiaoyu is so scared!"

The shivering little actor seemed to be too deep into the drama, while calling "mom", while flinging himself into Emily's arms, making Emily's heart a burst of sorrow. After a few days of living together, she had developed feelings for this child named Lucas, but also saw that he seemed to have no mother. Such a poor child, but also by Fiona's stupidity to be scared into such a state.

This kind of thing, even the most conscientious person can not bear it!

Emily wiped away Lucas's tears, held his hand, walked to Fiona without fear, and suddenly picked up the thermos cup and poured it on Fiona's head.

"Ah!"

The aroma of coffee instantly filled the air, Fiona was scalded by the coffee and let out a scream, and then cursed at Emily, "You bitch, do you want to scald me to death? Do you know how red I am? How much my face is worth? I'll make you disappear from the industry!"

"It's just being burned, it's not going to kill me, Fiona, don't react so strongly!" Emily calmly looked at Fiona who was in a mess, and returned what she had just said, "Moreover, this coffee is the finest Blue Mountain Coffee, Fiona, you're shameless, to be scalded by such a good coffee, you should hurry back to thank your ancestors!"

Fiona's arrogance and domineering behavior in the industry was well known to everyone, and all the staff members had suffered a lot during this period of time when they were shooting with her. Therefore, when everyone saw Emily without any fear and made Fiona's face turn pale, they all felt immensely happy.

"I'm not going to shoot the crappy movie either!"

With this thought in mind, Emily stared at Fiona fearlessly, only to see Fiona's eyes suddenly become harsh, she used ice to put on her face, while pointing at Emily viciously, looking at her manager Ethan Song: "What are you still waiting for, give me to smash this bitch's face, let her disappear in the entertainment industry completely! "

"Sister FionaXu, don't be angry, no matter what, you can't hit people!"

Fiona's manager Ethan, a gentle and cowardly man with a clear conscience, didn't hit Emily, but carefully pleaded with Fiona, and the surrounding staff were busy persuading her, but this series of behaviors made Fiona even angrier.

"Emily is just a pretty face, good acting skills, a small newcomer, why let so many people against me, I'm going to let this bitch in the circle completely disappeared!"

"If you guys don't fight, I'll come myself, Emily, you shameless bitch!"

Fiona raised her hand high, and was about to hit Emily, who, considering Lucas in her arms, knew she couldn't avoid it, and could only close her eyes and prepare to take the blow.

At this very second, a strong arm pulled her into a warm and generous embrace, and a low male voice rang in her ear: "Are you okay?"

What is the situation?

When Emily opened her eyes and saw this handsome and tall man, her head was dizzy, as if something flashed by, bringing endless pain. She couldn't help but groan, her body was weak, almost collapsed, fortunately the man's quick eyes and hands, embraced her more tightly, and asked urgently: "What's wrong? Where is not comfortable, is not a headache?"

"I'm fine!"

Emily quickly realized that it was inappropriate for her to be so intimate with a strange man in broad daylight, and hurriedly broke away from his embrace, smiling apologetically, "I'm sorry sir, I had a serious illness five years ago, and I get headaches from time to time, thank you!"

Five years ago.

Alexander Morrison looked at the beautiful woman in front of him, his heart ached, he had been looking for her for five years, during which time he thought he was ready to accept everything. But why, at the moment of meeting, seeing her strange eyes, he still had a pain in his heart!

"Mr. Alexander, what brings you here? If you want to come here next time, please let the secretary know in advance, so that we can prepare properly!"

The director's terrified voice broke the awkward atmosphere, and everyone on the set, including Emily and Fiona, instantly froze in place.

Mr. Alexander, this man in front of you, is it the president of the investment company Morrison Corp. behind this play, the legendary Alexander Morrison?

Handsome, cold, insubordinate, insubordinate, ruthless, and rich, when Alexander's name is mentioned, there are always words that describe him like a god. Born in an orphanage, he went to Harvard Business School on a scholarship and created his own business empire at the age of twenty, and at the age of twenty-two he made one of the most spectacular acquisitions in the world of finance, and has been at the top of the list of Asia's richest men ever since.

Why would such a glittering figure suddenly appear on the set?

When she heard the name "Alexander Morrison" and saw his face, a small pain flashed through Emily's heart, she took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

"I'm just a newcomer, and now that the investor is here, I can't lose my cool!"

Compared to Emily's forced composure, Fiona looked like a fish out of water. She quickly wiped the coffee stains on her face, quickly made up her makeup, confidently walked to Alexander, and was about to show her good behavior, when she realized that Lucas, who was beside her, suddenly ran to Alexander, pointing at Fiona with a milky voice: "Daddy, this is the bad woman, she just bullied me and mommy! "



Chapter 2

"Dad"?

Xiaoyu's address made Emily Summers freeze.

She didn't realize that the little boy she had been acting with for days was Alexander Morrison's son. And everyone in the room was stunned as well. Although everyone knew that the cold president had a five year old son, they definitely didn't expect that the youngest son of Morrison Corp. would actually run into the theater as a crowd actor. He also ...... almost got injured in the theater group!

It's over, it's over!

The director and producer were scared pale, bowing and apologizing. And Fiona Blake is fearful, trembling want to say something, but Alexander is faintly held Emily's hand, voice with a hint of cold: "Very good, today if not I come, really do not know my woman and son, will be bullied by people like this!"

What is this situation?

Emily was keenly aware of the change in people's eyes when they looked at her, and wanted to explain, but when she saw Alexander's deep eyes, she suddenly understood. This is obviously Alexander's son's heartache, in the meantime, she is a small actor to take out the anger. She is not a fool, there is no need to get in the way of other people's work!

Thinking of this, Emily obediently shut her mouth, holding Xiaoyu's hand and stood aside, the atmosphere of the scene was like a dead silence, everyone was too scared to speak.

Fiona's face was pale, her lips were trembling, she suddenly took Emily's hand, and with tears in her eyes, she bowed her head and said: "Miss Summers, I'm sorry! You are generous, please let me go this time, I definitely won't dare to offend you in the future!"

The way she said it, it seemed like I had bullied you!

Emily saw Fiona crying and apologizing, still not forgetting to put on a pitiful look, and also sneakily looking at Alexander's reaction from time to time, her heart was disgusted.

She coldly smiled, slowly and methodically spoke: "Offense or not, Fiona sister did not say that you are the most popular actress in the circle? It's easy to block me. Now you are apologizing to me and Xiaoyu, is it just because Alexander was there? Without his support, are we doomed to be bullied by you?"

These light words made Fiona's face turn ashen. She looked at Alexander apprehensively, only to see him frowning slightly, but did not pay any attention to her, but looked coldly at the director and producer: "Tell me, this matter, what kind of explanation do you intend to give me?"

He said this, obviously there is still room for maneuver!

The producer and the director looked at each other, and were happy, they knew that the reason why Alexander was willing to be merciful was because Emily and Xiaoyu were starring in this drama. Therefore, they immediately opened their mouths respectfully, "Mr. Morrison, in fact, EmilyXu is a beautiful girl with good acting skills, we have long seen that she is a rare new star, how about this, we would like to invite Miss Summers to formally act as the female lead in this TV series, I don't know if you and Miss Summers are willing to cooperate. I wonder if you and Miss Summers would be willing to cooperate?"

The pie in the sky has fallen on her head!

Emily froze in place, not knowing what to do. The next second, Alexander held her hand, his voice soft: "How about it, do you want to play the female lead?"

The man's low voice and deep eyes made Emily panic, she forced herself to calm down, and quickly thought about the offer. Obviously, being able to act as the female lead in this big production drama is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for her as a new actress, but she ...... can't say yes!

What is called "strong support by the wrath of God", in this line of work people know, Emily is just a small newcomer, if all of a sudden get such a good resource, will lead to unnecessary trouble. And she has already considered, and the kind of simple female lead compared to the single mother of the female third role has more room to play.

More importantly, she couldn't let go of Xiaoyu.

Looking at Alexander's cold side face, Emily slightly lowered her eyes, she had never known this president, the reason why he defended himself so much was mostly because of Xiaoyu. Therefore, she can't give an inch and get into trouble!

She made up her mind in her heart, flirtingly glanced at the flustered Fiona, and faintly said, "Mr. Morrison, thank you for your kind words, but I really like this role now, and I also hope to continue to spend time with Xiaoyu, so I want to continue to play this role!"

As usual.

Alexander gazed almost greedily at Emily's delicate face, and sighed imperceptibly.

The first time he'd approached Emily, she'd done the same thing, standing up for a bullied schoolmate. She was so smart, she was able to protect herself, but also considerate of others, always thinking of others.

But at that time, she was still the Summers' sister Xu, and no one dared to go against her. But now, the woman Alexander has loved for so many years is being bullied by a small actor!

Thinking of this, Alexander's heart was filled with heartache, guilt and anger, he took a deep breath, tried to calm himself, and said faintly: "Okay, since you want to continue to play this role, then continue. But before that, I wish to add a scene."

Not to mention adding a scene, if Alexander wanted to change the cast and crew, no one would dare to say anything!

"Mr. Morrison, here's the script, we'll arrange for the scene you want to add right away!" The director and screenwriter hurriedly handed over the script with pleasing faces, but Alexander didn't even look at it, and said with a gloomy face, "How to add, you guys arrange it yourselves. I just want the result." He pointed to Fiona's desperate face, "Just add a slapping scene, and let her and Emily play it."

It was obvious who was going to slap whom, Emily thought it was a bit exaggerated, and was about to shrug it off, but the director and screenwriter had quickly written a new scene, and respectfully handed it to her, "Miss Summers, as soon as you're ready, we're ready to start shooting!"



Chapter 3

"Start filming!"

Accompanied by the director's shout, the camera suddenly started, and the focus of the audience immediately centered on Emily Summers and Fiona Blake. But the light that the staff played for Emily was obviously much brighter than that of Fiona.

What is the meaning of "white on red" in the entertainment industry, I have finally seen it today. I only knew that movie stars like Nathan would enjoy this kind of treatment, but I didn't expect that I, a newbie, would also get some light today!

Emily, who had been cursing in her heart, immediately focused on Fiona, and said the line she had added on the spot: "Did you cause my son to get hurt?"

Fiona's heart was filled with jealousy and resentment, but she didn't dare not to cooperate with the scene. But when she saw the look in Emily's eyes, she froze in place.

Those eyes were full of a mother's questioning and blame, such exquisite acting, almost everyone could not look away!

The staff and the director for Emily's acting skills are very admired, and Fiona some unwilling to say: "Sorry, I did not expect things will turn out like this, I really do not have the intention, I ......"

"Snap."

With a slight thud, Emily's gentle palm swept across Fiona's cheek without actually hitting her in the slightest, and the sadness in her smile was heartbreaking, "I'm not going to hit you, because you're your mommy's boy too. Likewise, whether you did it on purpose or not, you've already hurt my son. Therefore, from now on, we will no longer be friends, but eternal enemies!"

The filming site suddenly fell into a silence, almost everyone was immersed in Emily's performance, a few female staff members who had become mothers even had red eyes, and the director and screenwriter glanced at each other, their hands trembling with excitement.

Finally, after the talented movie star Nathan, they found another actress with great talent!

What's more, compared to Nathan, Emily also had strong plot writing skills. In the scene just now, although she didn't really hit Fiona, she played out her lines on the spot and achieved the perfect effect!

"Stop!"

At the director's command, the scene was immediately filled with thunderous applause, and everyone's face was filled with sincere appreciation for Emily.

Among all of them, Lucas applauded the hardest. Seeing Emily finish the shooting, he happily ran to her side: "Mom acted great, my mom is the best actor!"

"Thank you little Lucas, that makes me happier than winning an award!" Emily couldn't bear to disappoint the child, and accepted the name "mom" naturally, smiling and stroking his head, while Alexander looked on with a warmth in his heart that had not been felt for a long time.

It seemed that his idea was really not wrong. Even if Emily doesn't remember him, she still has a natural closeness to their child, as long as he spends time with her every day, one day, he will win Emily's heart again, and he still has his whole life to make up for the woman he loves the most!

With Alexander by her side, the rest of the shoot went smoothly, and Emily was keenly aware of the crowd's favoritism, as well as Fiona's resentment and jealousy, but just smiled a little and didn't give it a second thought.

She was confident in her acting skills, and Nathan had said that it was only a matter of time before she became a star, and that she would have to face these situations one day anyway, so it was good to get used to them in advance.

After finishing all the filming, it was already after 8:00 p.m. Emily took off her make-up, dressed in a normal trench coat and jeans, and walked out of the set with her face uncovered, but she saw a one-of-a-kind Maserati parked in front of the entrance.

Alexander was waiting by the car with Lucas, and when he saw her coming out, he personally opened the door, "I wonder if I have the honor to treat EmilyXu to a meal, as an apology for today?"

Alexander wants to make amends to her for what?

Emily froze for a moment, and quickly realized that he was referring to the fact that he had mentioned that she was his woman on the set today, so she responded with a smile, "Mr. Alexander, you're too kind, thanks to you, I had a very good experience today. Even if you want to treat me, it should be me treating you."

"Mom, let's go, little Lucas is so hungry!"

Originally, Emily just wanted to politely say a few words and leave by herself, but she didn't expect Lucas to pull her towards the car without saying a word.

Thinking that the child just ate some boxed lunch on the set tonight, and has been snuggling with herself, Emily's heart was softened, so she agreed to have dinner with Alexander.

Dinner restaurant is the city's highest level of a hilltop restaurant, Emily's surprise, Alexander ordered are some of her favorite dishes. In addition, Lucas was playing cute and adorable next to her, which put Emily in a good mood.

The meal was very enjoyable, and after dinner, under Lucas's pampering, she accompanied him to the nearby Children's Park, and by the time they came out of the park, it was almost eleven o'clock at night.

"EmilyXu, thank you for today, I'll take you home."

Putting the sleeping little Lucas in the car, Alexander fastened the seatbelt for Emily, his slightly apologetic expression was completely different from the cold president during the daytime, which made Emily a little embarrassed: "How could it be, little Lucas is very cute, and I had a very happy day today too."

Hearing her say this, Alexander nodded slightly, started the car, and said seemingly unintentionally, "With EmilyXu's qualifications, if she had started her career a few years earlier, she would have been a popular young flower girl, why is she only coming to acting now?"

"I got seriously ill five years ago, and I've been recuperating ever since, so I only started acting this year." Emily answered without hiding anything, and then saw Alexander's hand on the steering wheel trembling slightly, and even his voice was choked with a little bit of sob, "So Emily, is she feeling better now?"

"She's basically cured now, but she still gets headaches sometimes." Emily felt that Alexander's behavior was very strange, but she didn't know how to respond, so she could only answer honestly.

The air in the car fell into silence, Alexander's deep eyes flashed a touch of pain, but never said anything, until Emily was sent to the downstairs, and then hoarsely spoke: "I have a proposal, I do not know if Sister EmilyXu is willing to agree?"

"Mr. Alexander please speak."

Emily intuitively guessed that what Alexander proposed must not be anything, but for some reason, she always felt that this man made her unable to refuse. The next second, Alexander looked into her eyes and said word for word, "Emily, will you be my girlfriend?"



Chapter 4

What the hell, she's not dreaming, is she?

Emily Summers felt her brain buzzing, and subconsciously wanted to reach out and pinch herself to make sure it was a dream.

Alexander Morrison smiled helplessly at her familiar behavior, held her hand to prevent her from pinching herself, and continued, "In fact, for the past few years, I've been trying to find a suitable mother for Lucas Morrison, to fill the gap in his maternal love. As you can imagine, it hasn't been easy. It's the first time in a long time that I've seen Lucas so dependent on someone, and he's thought of you as his mother for a long time."

Emily Summers can relate to this. She grew up without a mother, although her father, Thomas Summers, held her in his heart, the Summers family can be considered to be rich, but no matter how good life, if there is not a complete family, the child's heart will have a great lack.

Thinking of this, Emily's heart could not help but soften a little, and Alexander keenly sensed her emotional changes, and continued: "Of course, in addition to Lucas, I personally appreciate you very much. What I mean by girlfriend, you can understand it as a kind of cooperative relationship. In other words, usually in the circle, I need to have someone like you to help me block unnecessary troubles, and outsiders won't know about our real relationship."

Hearing this, Emily finally realized that Alexander wanted to use himself to keep him away! For a man as rich and handsome as him, naturally there are a lot of women competing for his favor, and it is not wrong to find a "girlfriend" to block the bad luck. Besides, after today's incident, the industry has already recognized that she and Alexander are having an ambiguous relationship. No matter what, she has to keep on acting.

Besides, since Alexander promised not to let people outside the circle know, it won't have any negative impact on her, and Lucas is so poor, how can she do nothing when she already knows about him?

Thinking about this, Emily nodded: "Okay, I promise you." This sentence and five years ago exactly the same, before Emily's face and five years ago look overlap together. At that time, he was close to her, pursuing her, the purpose is to take revenge through her, and this innocent and beautiful girl is completely unaware of this, when facing his confession looks so serious, let a person's heart ache.

Alexander, what have you done to her?

Suddenly the tip of his heart was flooded with intense pain, Alexander gazed at Emily's eyes, and suddenly picked up her delicate chin with his slender fingers, and kissed her in an overbearing manner.

"Alexander, mmm!" Emily cried out in shock, the man's kiss was hot and overbearing, with a biting breath, not giving Emily any room to resist. She tried to struggle and resist, but as soon as she moved, the man wrapped his arms around her more tightly, plundering between her lips and teeth, and gradually she couldn't help but respond to his kiss. As if something flashed in her mind, Emily only felt a white light in front of her eyes.

It was as if a long time ago, she had kissed someone so passionately. The next moment, she regained all her senses and broke free from Alexander's arms, slapping him across the face!

With the sound of the slap, the atmosphere in the car fell into an awkward state, and Alexander's deep eyes looked at Emily, before he whispered, "I'm sorry, Emily."

I don't know why, but she didn't feel angry at all when she was offended by him, Emily felt her head hurt again, but she didn't show it in front of Alexander, she just glared at him fiercely, and then ran out of the car, fleeing.

"Emily, I heard there was some unpleasantness on the set today, is it taken care of now? Are you hurt?" Just as she entered her home, Emily received a call from Nathan Quinn. She and Nathan had grown up together, were best friends, and could hardly talk to each other. However, this time, Emily subconsciously didn't want Nathan to know about her and Alexander, she just smiled and responded, "I'm glad you're Nathan, you're really well-informed. It's okay, it's just that Fiona Blake didn't know what to do, almost hurt a kid, and was cleaned up by me."

"Yeah? She's really unlucky for messing with you." Nathan chatted with Emily, and after they chatted for a while, he asked cautiously, "Emily, this is the first time you've received a more important role, have you encountered any strange people or things? If there's anything you don't feel comfortable with, remember to tell me!"

Emily sensed Nathan's nervousness, more and more afraid to tell him about Alexander, deliberately said easily, "I still expect to be a hit, acting with you! I'll hang up first if there's nothing else, I'm exhausted today, I want to rest early."

"I know, you sleep well." A shadow passed over Nathan's handsome face, but he tenderly said good night to Emily. After hanging up the phone, Nathan put down the phone irritably, walked around outside the scene of the ancient costume movie in a distracted manner, and dialed Alexander's number through clenched teeth.

"Alexander, what the hell do you want? Aren't you tired of Emily being victimized by you? You've already forced Thomas to die, and you don't think that's enough, do you want to continue to force Emily to die?!"

Alexander picked up the phone, Nathan's excited questioning came directly, his eyes flashed a haze, his voice bitter and cold: "Nathan, I've already said, between Emily and I, it's not for you to tell me what to do!"

"Five years ago, I did, and Emily was almost miscarried by you, and was sick for a while. If I don't do it again, you're going to get her killed, aren't you?" Nathan was wearing sunglasses and a mask, his voice was depressing, "Alexander, although Thomas had done something wrong to you in the past, Emily is innocent. Besides, you've already done enough harm to both of them, aren't you satisfied yet? Do you know why you're the only one Emily has forgotten? The doctor said it's because in her deepest consciousness, you're the biggest trauma she's ever suffered. That's why she forgot about you, and you're here to haunt her, so what do you want?"

"Enough!" A dangerous light flashed in Alexander's eyes, coldly drank, "Nathan, Emily is my Alexander Morrison's woman, I will naturally make up for her little by little for the wrongs I've done. You remember well, since I have found her, I will never let go of her as easily as before!"

After saying these words, Alexander hung up the phone, his expression was cold and dangerous. When little Lucas saw his father like this, he wrinkled his little face in disgust and warned, "I'm warning you, it's not easy for me to find my mom! If it wasn't for the fact that I miss her so much, I wouldn't have helped you lie to her! If you bully mommy again, I'll leave with her and never talk to you again!"



Chapter 5

Alexander Morrison crouched down, his eyes met Lucas Morrison's, and his muzzle promised earnestly: "Don't worry, Daddy made some mistakes before, has learned his lesson, and the same faults will never be repeated."

Lucas nodded seriously, the pouting corners of his mouth slowly calmed down, seemed to have remembered something, asked, "So when will mommy recognize Lucas? I want mommy to sleep with me."

Although his voice was soft as a murmur, Alexander Morrison could hear him clearly, and Lucas's low voice was like a pinprick in his heart.

Lucas glanced out the window, said nothing more, whispered good night, and went to his room to sleep.

Alexander Morrison's tall figure stood at the same spot, looking out through the wide floor-to-ceiling windows into the moonlight. Tonight is not a bright full moon, there are no twinkling stars in the sky, such a night seems particularly bleak.

He clenched his hands, and said in a cold voice: "I, Alexander Morrison, swear today with the rest of my life that I will favor Emily Summers to the depths of my heart, to the marrow of my bones."

Emily Summers turned down the opportunity to change roles. Although she was still the third woman, she was in a completely different position than before.

She not only won over the cast and crew with her acting skills, but also earned their respect through her character. She is a broad-minded woman who always knows how to protect herself while giving others the most respect.

That's what everyone admired most about her, but Fiona Blake never understood what Emily had in mind when she added the scene on the fly.

Even though Fiona has a place on the show, she's a poor actress and is only there because of the money behind her. Now that she's offended Alexander Morrison's son and his woman, it's hard to imagine the attitude of the crowd. Remembering how she was treated as a princess, Fiona is furious and almost mad.

"Mom, Lucas made you juice! Lucas made it himself, so try it."

The little boy's voice was filled with joy, and his big eyes stared at Emily's face for fear of missing the change of emotions on her face.

Emily watched as Lucas handed the cup to her like a treasure, her eyes full of favor, gently stroked his little head and said with a smile, "It's so good to have you here."

She gently drink up the juice, Lucas carefully put away the cup, openly smiled and said: "Since mom likes, then tomorrow Lucas also do mom."

"Okay."

Nowadays everyone thought that their relationship was a real mother-son relationship, but only Emily knew the truth of it. She was just a replacement for Lucas' mother, and when his real mother came back, she had to leave.

Emily touched Lucas's cute little face and wondered how Alexander Morrison, who was so rich and powerful, and Lucas, who was so adorable, could have been abandoned.

There were no difficulties from others on the set, and when she was with Lucas, Emily was always in a good mood, and she was in a good condition during the shooting. If it wasn't for the occasional difficult shot, most of the time she was able to get through it. The director became more and more satisfied with her performance, and there were many praises for her from the crew.

When Fiona heard the laughter outside, she was so angry that she dropped the cup in her hand. The exquisite cup shattered, Fiona was furious and stomped on it a few more times.

"That bitch has nothing to be proud of, but just holding on to a big leg. Look at her age, how can she have such a big child, obviously she is rushing to be a stepmother, but she is doing it so happily!"

She gritted her teeth in anger, and although she looked okay, her face was full of cynicism at this moment.

Joanne Doe, the manager beside her, swept Fiona a faint glance, frowning and reprimanded: "Go and clean up the garbage on the floor. It's all your own fault that you're in this situation, and I'm the one who's out of luck because you played a good hand like this."

Fiona's manager, Joanne, had been with the company for quite some time, and had packaged Fiona as a new star, originally wanting to use this opportunity to raise her status, but she had never thought that she would run into this kind of trouble, dragging herself into the predicament, so how could she not be angry.

He can't find any trouble with Emily, so he can only vent his anger on Fiona.

Fiona was so angry that she was about to explode. Previously Joanne's attitude towards her was very complimentary, but now that she's in trouble, even he wants to throw stones at her, and he even helped that bitch Emily!

"Don't forget that we're tied to the same rope. If I don't make it, you don't either."

Fiona's voice was already shrill, but now that it was deliberately pitched up, it was ear-splitting, and Joanne glanced up at her impatiently, disgusted.

He'd thought Fiona was nice at first, but now she seemed no different from a streetwise bitch.

"I'm an agent, and you're not the only one on my payroll. Even if I lose you, I'll still be able to turn around other artists. And Fiona, don't forget, I'm the one who got all your resources, so it's not wise to offend me."

Joanne's words were threatening, but they did speak the truth.

Fiona had offended the son of Morrison's president, and this matter had already spread. The fact that she is still able to do this movie is entirely due to Emily. She is almost invisible in the industry, not even a chance to turn around.

Taking a deep breath, Fiona poured a glass of water and forced herself to put on a decent smile: "You've been in the industry longer than I have, I was just so pissed off by that little bitch that I said what I did. Please don't take it personally, after all, I still need to rely on you in the future."

The man sitting on the chair glanced at her, snorted coldly, but didn't take the water she handed over, "I thought you were smart, I didn't realize you were so confused. But since you have said so, then I should still do what I have to do. Clean up the cups on the floor, don't stab my feet."

Joanne made an exaggerated eyebrow-raising gesture, her tone sarcastic.

Fiona resisted the urge to snap the cups on his head, suppressing her anger, and could only nod helplessly.
