Meanwhile, Lise was filming an episode of Weekend Party. The show was being broadcast live, and everything had been smooth until the final segment.

Toward the end, one of the female guests turned to Lise with a curious expression. “Lise, I heard you recently bought a script. Are you planning to transition into producing?”

Lise, ever composed, nodded calmly. “Yes, that was my intention. I wanted a project where I could be both the producer and lead actress. However, the script company hired a writer for me who turned out to have plagiarized from Katrina’s early blog posts.” She sighed softly, a trace of regret in her tone. “I’ve always supported originality. Even if it costs me more, I won’t stand for plagiarized works.”

“I’ve always admired Katrina’s work,” Lise continued. “This writer’s style seemed somewhat similar, which is why I decided to give this newcomer a chance. She claimed she was in urgent need of money, so I paid her a sixty percent advance, even though she hadn’t completed the script.”
