Chapter 84 Embracing a New Identity in the Entertainment Industry

Jordan was deeply aware of the ruthless dynamics within the entertainment industry. The intense. competition, the manipulative dealings of producers and directors–it all unnerved him.

No way

could he let Milly navigate such treacherous waters alone. As her brother, he felt it his duty to protect her from the industry’s harsh realities.

Milly exhaled softly, already anticipating his objections. “Jordan, don’t you trust me?”

Jordan’s face creased with worry. “It’s not that I don’t trust you. You’re still young, Milly. The world out there isn’t as gentle as you might think. I need to protect you from it.”

Milly felt a surge of warmth, comforted by her brother’s evident care.

Indeed, for a young lady accustomed to a sheltered upbringing, navigating the entertainment industry alone poses a considerable challenge. However, she was not nurtured in a protected environment; she fought her way up from the grit, well–acquainted with the darker sides of human nature.

“Jordan, I’m not a little girl anymore. I know how to judge right from wrong and see through people’s facades. I can’t rely on your protection forever, right?” Milly’s voice was soft yet firm.

Jordan scowled slightly. “Why can’t you? I want to protect you for as long as possible. Who dares to challenge that?”

Milly paused, pondering his profound sibling affection.

Inhaling deeply and biting her lip, she decided to play her ace. She grasped Jordan’s arm and gently shook it, her voice tinged with a playful whine, Jordan, do you love me?”

“Of course,” Jordan responded without hesitation.

His resolve was clear: he would go to any length for her.
