When Lenora went to deliver lunch to Susan, the orbeard Sanwering a phone call inside her car. It seemed like the call was from other do, indicating that a few seriges had been delivered by the investors and they wanted Susanna thre
Among those scripts, Lenora had heard of two, both of which were highly anticipated by investors for the nem phase. Many artists were so eager to get involved that they would do almost anything
One of the scripts was a major production, backed by a renowned director and screenwriter duo who had collaborated multiple times before. They were well–known successful figures within the industry, having won countless awards
She checked the remaining ones only to End that they were all adaptations of popular novels wi significant fan bases, naturally generating a certain level of buzz
Lenora was taken aback for a moment.
Over the past couple of days, while she was resting, sheoverheard the crew members and extras chanting Gradually, she began to understand a bit about this industry. Those who had the privilege to choose thei scripts were either those who had gained popularity and had a substantial fanbase, or those who had
T significant financial backing
Susanna initially had a solid fan base, but after returning to her home country and remaining inactive for six months without any new work, coupled with a scandal where she was implicated as the third party, she suffered a severe loss of fans. With the absence of Zachary’s support, she eventually had to resort to playing the fourth female lead in a drama series, a role that was only prominent in name.
But how could she be choosing scripts again now?
Could it be because of Kieran?
Over the years, Kieran had led the Carston family to prosper and had established a strong foothold in Jacaster. However, after Zachary and Susanna had parted ways, Kieran had also severed ties with them. It was unlikely that he would help Susanna again, right?
Perhaps Susanna had gotten involved with other investors.
Susanna was incredibly composed, as if she expected it all along. She instructed her assistant to bring over the script in the evening so she could thoroughly review it
Once they finished filming the afternoon scene, Lenora draped Susanna in a down jacket and they headed to the makeup room together. Casually, she mentioned “I noticed on the call sheet that you don’t seem to have any scenes for the next few days, starting from tomorrow.”
“Yes, in a couple of days, you’ll come with me to Sparaville. We have a variety show there
“All right.”

“Also, tomorrow morning at eight fifty, we have a meeting at Centurial Club You’re cothing with me”
Lenora glanced at her in surprise. “What kind of meeting is scheduled for nine in the rooming
“I’m going to meet with the director in charge of a project and dox table read. After that, we’ll have a meal together.” Susanna said, leisurely settling into her chair he smiled at Lenora “Just remember to help me avoid the drinks”
Lenora was aware that typically, after the roles were chosen, the production team would hold a script read through. This was done to organize the script and fill in any gaps, and also to deepen the actors understanding of their characters.
She nodded. “All right, I understand.”
After seeing Susanna off in the minivan, Lenora said, “See you tonight,” before turning around and heading toward the car park.
Watching Lenora’s retreating figure, a glint of malice flashed in Susanna’s eyes
The thought of Zachary making a special trip last night just to negotiate terms for Lenora sent her heart into a frenzy of jealousy.
All of this should have been hers!
Susanna made a phone call. Once connected, she asked “Is everything ready?”
The man on the other end of the phone chuckled in a sleazy manner. “Don’t worry, I have the drugs in my possession and the camera is set up right in front of the bed. All we’re waiting for now is her
He was growing impatient, eager to discover what Zachary’s partner tasted like.
Susanna instructed, “Remember to station more people at the entrance, we don’t want any mishaps allowing her to escape.”
-I know.”
Susanna hung up the phone with a sense of relief, a shadow of a thought flickering in the depths of her
eyes.
Zachary was supposedly magnanimous, right? Well, she was going to see just how far his magnanimity
could stretch!
She simply couldn’t believe that Zachary could remain calm after witnessing a video of Lenora in bed with another man!
At eight fifty in the morning the next day, Lenora promptly showed up in the grand hall of Centurial Club
In just a few minutes, Susanna arrived. She called for Lenora to join her, and together, they ascended the stairs to the reserved private room.
A few people had already arrived in the private room, all of whom Lenora recognized as actors, including a very famous and talented middle–aged actor.
They must have been part of the project’s cast.

Upon seeing Susanna enter, a few people politely greeted each other.
Susanna found a spot and sat down.
The private room regained its tranquility, and the atmosphere gradually became stagnant.
That talented middle–aged actor took the initiative to speak up, sparking a conversation.

Though their conversation was somewhat superficial, filled with casual agreements, it at least managed to break the awkward and strange atmosphere.
Lenora wondered, was this the reality of the entertainment industry?
Even among colleagues, it was challenging to interact like normal people. There was always the possibility that interests might become entangled at any moment, turning them into adversaries.
Around ten past nine, the others arrived.
Everyone stood up to greet them.
This time, it was the project’s director, two assistant directors, and the screenwriter who came.
Upon seeing their arrival, Lenora was taken aback.
One of the two assistant directors was the very same man who starred in the video Gordon had sent her. He was the one who had spent the night at Susanna’s house, Gary Marlow.
Just at that moment, the assistant director turned his gaze toward Lenora. His eyes held an appraising look, as though he was evaluating a piece of merchandise.
Upon seeing Susanna, the director was taken aback. He glanced at Gary, but said nothing.
He still had a script with him, which was in the final stages of completion. He had to oversee the editing and dubbing, so the preliminary preparations and casting for the new project were all handled by the two assistant directors.
His current filming crew was located next to Tyler’s. Occasionally, when he dropped by, he saw Susanna acting. Tyler was too lenient; if it were up to him, he definitely wouldn’t have allowed Susanna to pass.
Indeed, this director was none other than Kyle.
After the introductions were made, Kyle took the initiative to invite everyone to take their seats,
It was then that he recognized Lenora. He couldn’t help but take several glances at her. Wasn’t she Susanna’s stunt double? How did she become an assistant?
All the actors took a seat around the table, each holding a script in their hands, and began to do a table read.
In the understanding of many, script readings were typically held after the characters had been chosen but before official filming began. The timing varied, usually taking place anywhere between half a month to
two months.
Before the roles were chosen, there would be a script reading session. Sometimes, even two actors vying

for the same role would participate together. That was exactly the ion at hand.
This implied that the production team was still in the process of casting.
However, this time, Susanna was the only one who care for the role of the second female lead.
