Ariana was angry. As a producer, she certainly wasn’t here to cater to Sadie’s needs. Recognizing Sadie’s blatant attempt to provoke Ariana, Tyler stepped in. “Seeing as Miss Pierre arrived without an assistant, you can borrow my assistant for the time being.”
Sadie responded with a disdainful eye-roll, taking a moment to admire her freshly manicured nails. “| wouldn’t dare borrow Tyler’s assistant,” she said sardonically. “If someone were to misconstrue it and spread rumors, I'd be the one facing backlash.”

Her gaze settled on Ariana, a smirk curving her lips. “Besides, she looks quite unoccupied right now. Why not lend a hand? I’m not accustomed to functioning without an assistant, and if I’m uncomfortable, | won’t work.”
An uneasy silence descended upon the set, all eyes trained on the unfolding drama. No one dared intervene, given Sadie’s formidable backing from the Fredrick family.
It was evident to everyone, especially Ariana, that Sadie’s intent was to diminish Ariana’s stature and compel her into a subservient role.
Raising an eyebrow, Ariana responded coolly, “It seems you're a bit confused,NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
Miss Pierre. I’m an investor, not an assistant. How could you expect me to serve you?” Arms crossed, she continued, “If you’re thinking of quitting, that’s your choice. But remember, you can be here because of the financial support you bring. How long can you maintain your position without it?”
Unwilling to indulge Sadie any further, Ariana thrust the script in front of her. Sadie’s expression darkened, and she fixed Ariana with a steely gaze. The tension on set became palpable. “No need for all this fuss. Let Miss Pierre borrow my assistant,” a familiar voice interjected.
Zayden, having just joined the scene, had caught wind of the ongoing spat between Ariana and Sadie. Walking up with a composed demeanor, he remarked,
“Why let such a trivial matter delay the entire shoot? I’m sure Miss Pierre wouldn't object to the assistance.”
Sadie, already riled by Ariana’s audacity, found herself cornered by Zayden’s intervention. Aware of his influence, she didn’t dare challenge him directly. Instead, she managed a forced grin. “Thank you, Zayden.”
With an indignant huff, she shot Ariana one last icy stare before briskly heading to her dressing room. Ariana was taken aback by Zayden’s intervention. She hadn’t expected such support from him.
Seeing her astonishment, Zayden offered a conciliatory smile. “Sadie can be challenging. | hope you'll understand.”
His assistance had made Ariana reassess him. “Thank you, Mr. Fredrick,” Ariana said with genuine gratitude.
“It's the right thing to do,” Zayden responded modestly.
“Perhaps we could grab a coffee when time permits?” Ariana suggested politely. Zayden smiled, nodding in agreement, and they exchanged numbers.
After a brief interaction, Ariana and Tyler refocused on the day’s shoot.
