Chapter 449: Is Horizon Entertainment Tina's?

Juliet clenched her fists tightly, distressed by the additional scenes being given to others. If this went on, she feared she'd become a titular lead with no substance. Unable to suppress her frustration, she confronted the director, "If you're going to add more scenes, you might as well replace me with her as the lead."

The director found himself in a difficult position. Juliet was the lead actress specifically requested by the investors, and he couldn't afford to neglect her. However, since the investors hadn't followed up, he hadn't taken it too seriously. "Juliet, it's just a small addition to enrich the story. Don't make a fuss over nothing," he replied.

Juliet, visibly upset, retorted, "A small addition? According to the schedule, I was supposed to shoot all day today, but I haven't even started. It's been Vance all along. Am I being unreasonable here?"

The director's face hardened. "Juliet, who is the director here, you or me? You should be grateful you're the lead. What more do you want?"

"If it were the old Juliet, she would have walked away by now," she thought. But she couldn't. This role, secured by Tina, was her only way out. Quitting would not only let Tina down but also ruin her own career.

Suddenly, the voice of Ember Saffron echoed nearby. Everyone turned to see him live streaming. With a cheerful demeanor, he spoke into his phone, "Thank you, yes, you're right-it's just a filming site, no conflicts, just acting. Why would the director arbitrarily add scenes for the second lead? You're all fans with high expectations from this adaptation. If scenes were added haphazardly, wouldn't that ruin his reputation?"

The camera was pointed at Juliet and two others. Alarmed, the director hurried over. Ember Saffron, ever so generous, turned the camera towards the director. "Say hello to the viewers," he prompted.

The director chuckled nervously, his eyes darting to the barrage of supportive messages for Juliet and calls to resist Vance's undue influence. "Director, have we given the second lead more scenes?" Ember asked with a smirk. "Absolutely not, no way," the director quickly responded.

"And does Juliet's role as the lead align with the original story?" Ember continued, his smile bordering on sarcasm.
