Shattered Illusions: Love, Lies, and Redemption

Chapter 269

Jenny and Yolanda were chatting and walking along.

A camper van pulled up behind them, and its back door swung open to reveal a pair of long legs stepping out first.

There was a man wearing a mask, a fisherman’s hat, and a long trench coat, his face so hidden behind sunglasses that you could barely see a thing.

“Mr. Cassius, Director Harriet is already waiting in the VIP room, just waiting on you now.”

The assistant got out of the car, replying on his phone as he spoke.

Cassius nodded, looking ahead, his gaze landing on a somewhat familiar figure.

He reached up and hooked his sunglasses down a notch.

No mistake, it was Yolanda, Hot Chili.

“What’s she doing here?” he raised an eyebrow.

Assistant Sean, catching on to his line of sight, turned to look just as Yolanda turned her head to speak with Jenny, giving Sean a clear view.

Sean exclaimed with a hint of excitement, “Oh, you mean Yoli? Yeah, why isn’t she on set today? But do Yoli and Jenny know each other? Maybe she’s here to meet the director?”

He speculated, genuinely happy for Yolanda.

“Yoli’s got some serious acting chops, and her action scenes are out of this world, not to mention she’s just as pretty as any actress out there. If she gets the chance, she’s gonna skyrocket.”
