You Are Mine (English)

Chapter 118: Chapter 118: What News?

The next day, probably because of being drunk, Edie had a splitting headache. Although she was very eager to sleep all day, she received a call from Danny. He told her that she had an essential thing to do and asked her to come to the company as soon as she could.

So, Edie had to drink a cup of black coffee and rushed to Star Entertainment. However, she was in a bad state. She was afraid to drive the car on her own, so she asked the driver at the villa to take her.

As soon as she entered Danny’s office, Danny glanced at her swollen cheeks and deep dark circles around her eyes. He knew right away that she had been drunk the night before. He couldn’t help but ridicule her, "Don’t you make a play behind my back? The crew gave you half a month’s leave, and you become more and paler. Are you working somewhere else to earn extra money?"

"There is only one agent for me in the entertainment circle, and I wouldn’t dare work myself."

Danny is a man with mean words and a warm heart. No matter what, he always knew how to flatter Edie. "Right," Danny snorted and didn’t think about it again.

"There has been big news in the last two days, did you hear about it?" Danny’s face showed a gossip look.

"What news?" Edie immediately asked, not only to satisfy Danny but mainly because she had been isolated from the world recently.

"Zoe was reported to be the mistress of the director? The director’s wife found out, and a group of people were called out to give her a beating on the street."

Edie’s eyes opened wide, "Really?"

Danny saw the reaction of Edie and smiled proudly, "Not only was there a fight, but her clothes were torn off. She forced Zoe to swear that she would not step into the city again, and the video and photos are everywhere now. The company felt that it had a bad influence on the other artists, so they had deleted some of the pictures. Now the company that Zoe works for is also preparing to sue her. Not only to pay liquidated damages but also to ask her to compensate for the loss of her negative news. Zoe doesn’t have the money to pay for all of this."

Edie heard Danny’s words and felt a little relieved. Zoe Anna was very vicious, and getting this end was what she deserved. Edie did not expect that it would end so badly.

Danny is still talking to himself, "I don’t know what happened this time. The video event maybe it was the same person or maybe someone else? I have no idea."

As soon as she heard this, Edie decisively said, "Absolutely not." The video was done by Stuart. Others didn’t know the hidden story. She still didn’t know if Stuart had already achieved his goal or not, and he would not be ignorant of it.

Danny looked at Edie with a suspicious look, "You don’t know who did it, do you? How can you be so sure?"

"This...there are so many enemies of Zoe. It is normal for some people to want to seek revenge on her. The styles of these two things are different. It just doesn’t seem to be the work of the same person." Edie said vaguely. She quickly changed the topic, "Did you want me to come over today to tell me this?"

Danny’s attention was actually transferred, and he immediately said, "Of course not." Then he looked down at the file in front of him, took out a document and handed it to Edie, "Hey, look at this."

"What?" Edie took the file, looked at it, and found it was a person’s resume. It was a girl named Sophie. She was five feet and six inches tall. She looked pretty in the photo. She was only nineteen years old. She wasn’t an actor, as her past experience was filled with modeling.

Edie turned the pages over and over again and found that they were all photos of Sophie as a model. Somehow, she felt that this girl looked a bit familiar. "How about this little girl?" Danny raised his eyes and looked at Edie.

"Looking good, are you going to have the newcomer under your management?"

"Umm," Danny snorted and looked dissatisfied. "If you really want me to choose, I don’t want to accept this kind of thing. It’s not an actor’s piece at all, think she’s just hooking up with some powerful guy. They are willing to spend the money to make her famous. She has looked for me before, and she wanted to sign a contract, but I did not agree. This time, the pressure came directly from the company."

This is beyond the expectation of Edie. Star Entertainment was not a big media company. Danny is one of the best agents in Star Entertainment. It is not too much to say that he was a remarkable person. This Sophie can actually give him pressure through the company. She was afraid her background must be strong.

"Who is her supporter?"

"Todd Anderson, the son of Anderson Jewelry, one of the three rich guys in the City."

Edie started to cough as soon as she heard the name Todd Anderson and was choked by her own saliva. Danny looked at her strangely, "What, do you know him?"

Although she didn’t know him, Todd was a good friend of Stuart’s. She had already met him at the resort. Not to mention, when she attended the conference. She borrowed the most valuable treasure of Anderson’s jewelry.

Edie finally managed to breathe and quickly shook her head, "I don’t know Todd Anderson. I just heard of the name." Danny was convinced by this reason and couldn’t help but sigh, "I don’t think you know him. Depending on your appearance and acting skills, if you can recognize this grade, you would be famous now."

Danny spoke the truth, and Edie had to pay back with a smile. However, Edie knew why Sophie was so familiar. She had seen this girl more than once.

The first time was in Danny’s office, she was in a hurry and bumped into her. The second time was at the holiday resort. Todd even took her on vacation, so he must be very fond of her.

"Okay, so why are you showing me her resume?" Edie asked doubtfully.

"She is the next Lola to succeed, Zoe."

The event that changed the actress was spread everywhere. She didn’t expect Zoe was actually going to be replaced. The substitute was a newcomer without any fame.

Although Zoe deserved what she got, Edie couldn’t help but feel her sorrow. The entertainment circle was emotionless. There is a countless young and beautiful woman wanting to get in with so much effort. Once they make a mistake, they will be replaced at any given time. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

"What about the scene of Zoe, have they all been cut? There are many parts of Lola, and if they remake it, the workload will be so heavy."

Lola was a distinctive character, and there were many scenes to play opposite with Queenie Fox and Charles Sims. If they remake it, they must extend the signing time of Queenie and Charles. These two people are very famous actors. They will have to spend a lot of money.

"The script has changed a bit. Lola’s part had been cut a lot. Especially the scenes with your sister, they are almost completely deleted. What they kept was the part where she provoked you. So, they need to remake that, but definitely not all of it. Lola is not important, so Wilfred has much confidence that he will be able to use the newcomer. Hey, this is a new script, take it and have a look at it."

Danny handed over the thick script.
