Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 541

"Let me tell you guys, in showbiz, while hard work is crucial, connections are just as important. Once I get to know Ms. Shirley, do you really think I won't be able to snatch opportunities from Astrid?"

Linda sported an air of confidence, flashing a victorious smile before striding toward where Odell was standing. "Hey, Mr. Odell, Ms. Shirley, how's it going?"

Shirley, ever the polite one, offered Linda a brief smile in return.

Odell, spotting Linda, gave a friendly nod. "Hey Linda, are you working?"

"Yep, yep!" Linda nodded eagerly, her eyes full of anticipation as she waited for Odell to make the introductions with Shirley.

"Great, keep up the good work," Odell said cordially, then continued to chat and laugh with Shirley as they walked away.

Linda was flabbergasted.

Keep up the good work? Wasn't Odell supposed to introduce her to Shirley?

Mamie and the others watched Linda being left in the dust, and their faces couldn't hide the smirks. Linda felt her cheeks burning with embarrassment, wishing she could just disappear.

Undeterred, she followed them again, only to hear Odell say, "Ms. Shirley, the actress I want you to meet is inside. She's one of the most talented actresses I've ever come across—insightful and incredibly dedicated. I'm sure you'll take a liking to her."

Shirley responded with a gentle smile, "This is the first time I've ever heard you praise someone like this. I'm quite intrigued by this young lady. I hope she doesn't disappoint."

"She won't let you down," Odell assured her, then waved over to Astrid, who was taking a break from filming. "Astrid, over here!"

Astrid, hearing Odell's call, flashed a charming smile and said to the cameraman, "Could you hold on just a sec for me?"

"No problem," the cameraman replied.
