Chapter 81

He thought Xanthea would come to him.

After hearing Xanthea failed bid to secure the lead role in “Realm of Illusions“, to comfort her, Oliver sent her an extensive list of upcoming fashion and film projects from Oli–hea Media directly to her phone.

Xanthea scrolled through the options but nothing really caught her interest. Even though there were some popular shows and potential blockbusters in the mix, none of them could compare to the buzz around “Realm of Illusions“. Surpassing Isabella by starring in any of these seemed like a pipe dream.

It seemed to her that the only way to eclipse Isabella was by landing the role of Phoenix in “Realm of Illusions“.

Oliver broke into her thoughts, “Xan, how’s the hunt going? Found anything you like?”

“Yes, but I still want to play Phoenix.”

“You really like that character, huh?” Oliver was in a tight spot, “Even though the script for Realm of Illusions‘ was snatched up by Starlight Media, I could pull some strings through my connections in the industry to get you a role. But the lead, Phoenix? That’s out of the question. Starlight Media has too many top–tier actors vying for that spot. They’d never hand it to an outsider.”
