Chapter 532
Was Stephanie trying to dodge a bullet here?
Was she scared that the company will find out about Marilyn?
Sebastian didn't give a hoot about all of this! What's eating him was why even Martin got an invite, but he didn't!
Luckily, Marilyn gave him another ring and said she'd pack him a meal after dinner.
This means he wasn't completely left in the dust. Sebastian didn't want to sweat over this either.
It's Friday, and Stephanie should be heading home; she still needs to practice driving over the weekend.
The sooner he wraps up his work, the sooner he can hit the road.
After dinner, Stephanie took Emily back to school.
Having taken a breather in the morning, she's full of beans for the afternoon classes.
Everyone in the classroom was head over heels for Emily-this pretty little girl.
Brook had bumped into Emily a few times, sometimes even taking her to the office for a playdate.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Emily was getting bolder. She would take the initiative to interact with anyone Stephanie knows.
Even when someone ploped her on their lap, she didn't kick up a fuss anymore.
On the contrary, she's loving the feeling of being everyone's darling.
After school, Brook called Stephanie into the office and said, "A production crew wants me to recommend a child actor to play the female lead's childhood... I think Emily is spot on. Do you want her to audition?" "A TV show?"
"Yep."
"What's the genre?"
"The lead character gets bullied a lot in her childhood, there are lots of tear-jerking scenes. Emily's acting chops are totally up to snuff."
"Who's playing the grown-up lead?"
"An award-winning actress, Lyra, she's a knockout... really stunning."
"Sorry, Ms. Nelson, we won't take this gig."
"Why not?"
"Lyra's personal reputation is a ticking time bomb... I know my teacher and Emily's dad would never green-light this."
Emily's father was it Jeffrey?
The moment she thought of him, Brook clammed up, nodding hurriedly, "Alright. Emily's already a big hit; she won't run out of roles."
"That's right, when I'm on set, if
there's a fitting role for Emily, I won't
help her take on roles anymore, if
she's not with me, I'd be on
ov
tenterhooks."
"I get it..."
After leaving the office, Emily asked curiously, "Why won't you let me act in other shows?"
"Because, Emily, your first gig was a New Year's film, you shot to stardom in one take... we can't just take any gig that comes our way." "Haha, really! So I'll only act with you in the future?"
"I've stepped on a lot of toes. Our relationship is now public. I don't trust you going to film alone; what if someone gives you a hard time when I'm not around?
You're still young. Plus, I bet your mom and dad wouldn't be comfortable with you going to film alone either."
"I get it. Don't worry, I'll have your back."
"Haha, Emily, you're the best! Let's go; school's out; we've got to head home! don't even know if I'll get my driver's license before the New Year! Silver Fox said he'd buy me @car once I got it!" en FindNovel
"When I earn lots of money, I'll buy you a car too! The flashiest one!"
"Haha, deal! I'm looking forward to living the high life with Emily!"
On the way home, Stephanie got a call from Gracie out of the blue.
She thought it was about a new script that needed her input.
But to her surprise, there was trouble at the studio.
"Steph, you've got to think of something. Rebecca's causing a scene at the studio with her crew!"
