As soon as those who were watching the drama outside the door saw Cindy’s furious expression, they avoided her for fear that they would suffer.
Anxious, Leanne shifted her gaze to Eliza. "Miss Robbins, I know you hate Cindy, but you made her look so bad. After all, she's Young Master Jewell's fiancee. Even President Daley has to treat her with respect.”
"It's fine. If I fail to become an actress, you can join me in starting a business in the future," Eliza said in a light-hearted manner, "My entrepreneurial skills are better than my acting skills." 2
Leanne was speechless. "Please don't lie to me. When have you ever started a business? What's more, it's all too easy for the Jewell family to destroy anyone."
"I know." Eliza laughed with a trace of sarcasm in her voice.
No one knew it better than her because she was the one who had gotten destroyed previously.
Soon, Director Cheever held an urgent meeting. “Since Cindy is getting married at the end of this year, she might not have enough time to shoot a movie. After discussing with her company, we've decided to
substitute her with Eliza. She'll now be the female lead. The first supporting actress will only join the cast the day after tomorrow, so everyone can rest in the next two days. Eliza, do familiarize yourself with the script for the female lead in the meantime."
"Alright." Eliza took the script under everyone's surprised looks.
No one believed that Cindy left so abruptly because of her wedding.
It was probably because Eliza's acting was too superb. If Cindy continued to be the female lead, she would be beaten hands down. Hence, she had no choice but to quit. That was also why Eliza and Cindy had a row this afternoon.
However, everyone was shrewd enough to keep quiet.
Since there were no scenes to shoot this afternoon, Eliza headed back to the hotel by car.
