Stella switched off the hair dryer. She combed her long, half-dried hair as she joked, “You shouldn’t have learned screenwriting. Becoming a performer fits you best.”

Felicity carefully touched the bag. She clenched her teeth as she said, “I’m sleeping with it tonight. I want to dream of becoming a wealthy woman!”

“Feel free to do that. But, before you sleep, help me to take a few good pictures of it.”

Felicity turned her head, “Why do you want to take photos of it? Do you want to post it on social media and anger those rich women?”

“No.” Stella sat down. “I want to sell it.”

“What?”

“I’m getting the paperwork done with Keegan tomorrow. I want to buy a house after I divorce him. It’d be best if the house is near the Rotona Pinnacle Hospital, fully furnished, and move-in ready. So that way, it’s easy for me to look after my mother. I went house hunting in that area before this. Those that matched my expected requirements are quite expensive. I’ll be left with very little money after buying a house. And today, the person in charge from the Honor of the Deities told me that I didn’t pass the audition. So, I’ll be short of money after the divorce. It’s better for me to just sell this bag and get some cash.”

“You didn’t pass the audition?” Felicity could not believe it. “Didn’t they say that you got the job before this? Just that the contract wasn’t ready yet, right? And, they wanted you to go over and sign the contract two days later. What happened?”

“I asked them why did they suddenly say that I wasn’t suitable for the job. The answer that they gave me was that their boss didn’t quite like my voice. Maybe because I sound too mature.”

“Bullshit! It must be some prick pulling the strings! Or else, why would they suddenly change their decision? Do you know who are they signing the contract with? I’ll beat the shit out of the person!”

“Forget about it. I didn’t sign the contract. And, I don’t have a sound recording of the verbal agreement. Just think of it as me being unlucky.”

Felicity was still aggrieved. After ranting about the person who “pulled the strings”, she then complained about Keegan. “You’re too soft-hearted. I’m going to find evidence of him cheating on you. Even if it can’t make him lose everything, I want you to be able to get his assets!”
