Shattered Illusions: Love, Lies, and Redemption

Chapter 271

“Jenny, what’s the deal? You’re knocked up?”

Director Harriet snapped to attention, frowning and fixing Jenny with a stern look.

If Jenny was preggers and sneaking into the crew, wouldn’t that just throw a wrench in the works?

Scoring the supporting actress gig hadn’t been a walk in the park for Jenny, and if she lost it over this, what then?

She immediately shook her head in a panic at Director Harriet.

Yolanda gave Jenny a nudge and chimed in to save the day, “Director Harriet, I’m in the loop here, Jenny had a miscarriage!”

Jenny quickly echoed, “Yeah, yeah, I had a miscarriage for my career!”

But Remington just let out a snort of derision, “Miscarriage? When? At which hospital?”

His gaze was piercing, and Jenny nearly burst into tears under the scrutiny, stubbornly retorting.

“I don’t know you, it’s my personal business, why the hell should I tell you?”

Right then, the producer recognized Remington and quickly pulled Jenny aside.

“Jenny! How can you talk to Mr. Dashiell like that? You answer whatever Mr. Dashiell asks you, and make it snappy!”
