The Contracted Ever After novel Chapter 295

A few days ago, Samantha officially became part of The High Society production team. It was a decent gig, where she played the role of the fifth wife to a Duke. Although it was a villainous character, it had some sympathetic traits. She reckoned that once the show was aired, it might win her a modest fanbase. After signing the contract, she received an advance payment of three hundred thousand, which she used to rent a house for her family in Millstone, alleviating some of the pressure previously put on her by Sienna.

As for her annoying grandmother, she couldn't let her monopolize a house in Roseville. The house was listed online but hadn't been rented out yet. Therefore, she had no choice but to bring her grandmother here.

Today, Deanna stormed into the set, complaining that Samantha left without finalizing her next project with her agent.

Samantha officially broke ties with Deanna.

Once a nobody, Samantha was now infamous among the crew members, thanks to the slap she had received. Samantha remained silent, covering her face, looking pitiful. She was crying all the while.

It was a well-known fact in the industry that Deanna was a diva, so when she hit her former assistant, everyone voiced their sympathy for Samantha, saying that Deanna had pushed her luck too far and would eventually meet her downfall. With a glance at the crew members, Deanna walked away.

Deanna harbored a grudge against The High Society production team. They didn't even ask her, a top-tier actress, if she wanted to participate. Instead, they actually approached one of her assistants.

Although Samantha had a tough day and wasn't in a good mood, the silver lining was that she had become more acquainted with the people on the set, broadening her network. In comparison to Cordelia, she might still be considered the underdog in life, but things were looking up. She believed that one day, she would become more successful than Cordelia.

Seeing Cordelia's prominent baby bump and the fact that Ronan was accompanying her, Samantha was filled with jealousy and anger.

Looking at the untouched cup of tea in front of Ronan, Samantha's inferiority complex seemed to be choking her. Was he repulsed by her house, or did he suspect her mother had poisoned the tea?

Samantha's anger was at its peak.

…

Ronan glanced around the house. It was spacious and he was bored. He had finished flipping through his magazine while Cordelia was still chatting with her grandmother.

“Is it rented or bought?”

“Ah, rented, eight thousand a month,” Samantha replied.
