Yolanda watched Ian drive off before heading back inside to change into a professional outfit. She then drove herself to Starlight Entertainment.

She had done her research on the company. Starlight Entertainment had a dozen or so executives, most of whom owed their position to family connections. The place was infamous for squeezing every last drop out of their talent, and its reputation in the entertainment world was practically toxic.

Their talents were all at the perfect age to shine, yet many were stuck in contracts lasting ten, sometimes even

twenty years.

‘All that youth and potential, just drained away here,‘ Yolanda thought to herself, feeling a flash of pity.

And if any of the talents happened to be especially good–looking, they’d be pushed to attend events and drink with business partners–like they were nothing more than eye candy.

Yolanda’s mission was clear–she was here to shake things up and overhaul the entire system.

Just as Yolanda pulled up outside Starlight Entertainment, her screen lit up with a message from Ian.

[Got hurt.]

He’d attached a photo of his calf–there was a fresh scratch along it, probably where he’d scraped it on something.

It had been two days since they’d returned to Beloris, and Ian hadn’t reached out once. He was still clearly

upset.

But now, here he was, sending her a message. He wanted to make

up.

‘That little puppy always overthinks everything,‘ Yolanda thought to herself with a fond smile.

Yolanda was in a good mood and perfectly willing to comfort him, so she picked up her phone and gave lan a

call.

“How did you get hurt?” Yolanda asked gently, her voice full of concern.

“Oh, just scratched my leg while filming. It’s no big deal,” Ian replied, making it sound like nothing had happened at all.

But even though Jan said he was fine, Yolanda knew he actually wanted her to come check up on him.

She glanced at the Starlight Entertainment building right in front of her, figuring, ‘It won’t hurt to put this off for a bit–no rush‘

With a smile, Yolanda asked, “When do you think you’ll be done filming today?”

“No idea. It’s gonna be late–might even have to pull an all–nighter. Raelyn got kicked off the project. She’s seriously injured, and the hospital says she won’t be out for at least two months. Ms. Sinclair couldn’t wait, so
