A Film Queen

Chapter 92 Oliver’s Flattery

Finished

The lead actor, Oliver, had openly quit the production because he disliked his co–star. Everyone in the crew knew this by now, it wasn’t exactly a secret.

But to bring it up so blatantly? That was a first.

Milly kept a calm expression, unaffected by the sarcastic tone. She asked, “Oh, really? Then I wish you luck in getting the role. I’ve heard there are more candidates on their way. Don’t celebrate too soon. You might end up empty–handed.”

Neal’s face darkened. He hadn’t expected the girl in front of him to be so sharp–tongued.

Sensing his shift in mood, Stephanie quickly stepped in, protecting Neal behind her and looking teary- eyed. She accused. “Milly, how could you say that about Neal?”

Milly frowned. She didn’t think she had said anything particularly harsh.

Stephanie looked as if she had suffered a great injustice, tears streaming down her face, making her look incredibly delicate. Neal wasn’t the only one affected; even the bystanders who had been mocking them started to think Milly might have gone too Гаг.

This move was a masterstroke in any PR scenario.

With Stephanie protecting him, Neal felt a rush of sweetness. He felt his dream of marrying into wealth was within reach. Feeling righteous, he stepped forward, shielding Stephanie behind him and confronting Milly.

“If you have an issue, come at me. Bullying a defenseless girl like Stephanie is beneath you. No wonder Oliver doesn’t want to act with you. You lack talent and integrity. People like you ruin the acting profession!TM

His voice was loud and forceful, echoing around them.

It was as if Milly had forcibly separated a loving couple rather than merely spoken a few words.

Joy was standing behind Milly. She frowned at this point. What’s wrong with these two? Initially, they sought attention, and now they are the ones making the accusations. These two get all the benefits for themselves, which was convenient for them.

Suddenly, a voice full of anger rang out, asking, “Who are you calling lacking in integrity, Toasty?”
