Chapter 2006

It was a dreamless night.

The next morning, before Isabel’s alarm had even gone off, she received a call from her manager Amanda who was supposed to still be recovering from her illness. Her shrill voice blasted through the speakers, "Isabel, what trouble did you get into this time?"

Isabel rubbed her sleepy eyes and asked in a dazed state, ” What happened?"

Amanda said without the least attempt of concealing her anger, "It’s Isabella. She managed to snatch the female lead role in the show 'Legend of the Goddess'! She also managed to steal the special guest spot on the variety show I was just talking about with you the other day!"

Isabella was another celebrity who had launched into stardom several years earlier than Isabel. However, ever Isabel’s first big hit, she had always been more popular than Isabella was.
