Zack didn’t take the bait. He only picked up his glass after watching Yolanda finish three bottles without even flinching.

“Alright, I’ll cut to the chase,” he said. “Ian can take the supporting role.”

“Thanks,” Yolanda said softly, then grabbed her bag. “I’ll have someone come by tomorrow to sign the contract.”

Just as she was about to leave, she unexpectedly ran into Sophie again.

But Sophie didn’t notice Yolanda. The slap mark on her cheek had already been covered with foundation, and right now she was bragging to her friend.

Sophie rolled her eyes, clearly ignoring the warning. Her head was full of nothing but how to make Yolanda pay,

She was hell–bent on tossing Yolanda to a bunch of sleazy directors and letting them have their way with her.

Yolanda stood there, her stomach churning even worse. She pushed open the bathroom door and leaned over the sink, throwing up.
