Spoiled by the Silver Fox

Stephanie was called up to the podium by the teacher, looking bewildered.

Gillian watched her with a worried expression.

The teacher was a woman in her forties, who used to be a famous and powerful actress in the entertainment industry when she was younger. After she grew older, she retired and became a teacher at Center Stage, where she held a lot of prestige and influence.

"So I can perform whatever I want?"

"Not exactly."

"Please instruct me, teacher."
