Elva, furrowing her brows, continued, “Do you think she’s doing this on purpose? Given her rocky relationship with Mr.

“Maybe not,” Sandra murmured, biting her lip, torn between doubt and acceptance.

“But if their breakup is really related to me, then she’s justified in being angry with me.

If she wants the role that badly, it’s hers for the taking.

It’s a shame, though.

Despite her attempt to appear gracious, a trace of regret crossed Sandra’s face.

Elva reached out, offering a comforting hand on her shoulder, and said, “Oh, Sandra, you’re too kind! Remember, it was Elizabeth who stepped in between you and Mr.
