Zoe fumed inside and thought, 'All I did was mistake that girl for an assistant and ask her to fetch something. She didn't even actually go. Is this really enough to warrant revenge?

"Your acting needs improvement," James said bluntly, leaving no room for misinterpretation.

"That you just said I did okay." Zoe retorted, confused and annoyed.

James felt a bit awkward and thought, 'Not everyone understand the implicit codes of the industry. What I said usually meant I wouldn't be calling back. Does she expect me to outright say her acting isn't up to par?"

"Mr. Guinnes, if this is because she said something to you, don't believe her. Zoe pointed at Ophelia, her eyes blazing. "She's friends with Sharon. This is all about favoritism. How is this fair to me!"

James previously calm demeanor instantly darkened when Zoe targeted Ophelia. Just as he was about to speak. Ophelia stood up, meeting Zoe's gaze head-on. "You think this isn't fair? How about this? Since it's just the two of you auditioning for the role, why don't you pick a scene and act it out with Sharon? Would that be fair?"

Zoe's eyebrows lifted. "Fine" She immediately started flipping through the script, searching for a scene she could ace.

Ophelia's face remained unreadable. Some people only cry unfairness when the scales weren't tipped in their favor. She glanced over at Sharon, confident in her performance skills.

Zoe finally pointed to a part of the script. "This scene."

It was a tense moment in the story. Freya and Aiden were on a mission that went terribly wrong, leaving their vehicle teetering on the edge of a cliff. Freya, realizing the only way to save Aiden was to sacrifice herself, quietly confesses her feelings
