She pushed down all the emotions swirling inside her and focused on the audition in front of

her.

Sean suddenly asked, “I heard Mr. Sinclair came by today too. Does he know you brought lan for the audition?”

Even though Sean was on good terms with Yolanda, if Charles really didn’t approve of her actions, Sean could be held accountable for letting her in. The Sinclair family was huge and powerful–Sean didn’t dare offend them.

“Don’t worry, Sean,” Yolanda said. “I already told him.”

Sean let out a sigh of relief. He glanced at Sophie, still crying and whining not far away, and couldn’t help but tell Yolanda, “You’re ten thousand times better than her.”

Yolanda didn’t feel proud of being better than Sophie–she felt ashamed. Sophie was short- sighted, sending private photos to men in the middle of the night, relying on men to climb the ladder.

But then Yolanda reminded herself that, in the eyes of others, she was also a woman living off Charles–only no one would ever say it out loud.

Sophie’s eyes

lit up when she saw Charles. “Charles!”

She ran over, looping her arm through his, pride written all over her face, Charles genuinely spoiled her, even coming here just to see Sean for her.

Sophie thought of Yolanda and felt upset. She had just asked around and learned that Yolanda was an agent, bringing an actor to audition for the second male lead,

A smirk curved on her lips, and she teased Charles, “Charles, can I pick the second male lead myself?”
