Chapter 141
The teacher let out a resigned sigh and said, "I know you youngsters always hate losing, but this is the era we live in. Those who have connections will have more opportunities!
If Stephanie has the ability, she can go and grab the role back. I won't be against that. But if she doesn't, don't offend those who shouldn't be offended... Otherwise, you might ruin your entire acting career." Gillian wanted to say something, but Stephanie caught her wrist, shook her head, and said, "Gillian, don't be rash."
With tears in her eyes, Gillian still wanted to argue with the teacher, but Stephanie held her back again and whispered in her ear, "Why make things difficult for the teacher? She already pointed out a way for us. As long as we have connections, we can fight for it, right? And don't I have some connections too?"
Gillian was taken aback... Yeah, Stephanie's got Sebastian, the president of Skyline Corporation, backing her up!
She couldn't help but laugh, "That's right...Steph, you have to fight for the role. I want to perform with you."
"I'll do my best..."
By the lunch break, Maddie learned about the incident and immediately called her dad.
Her dad, on the other side of the phone, helplessly said, "I can't offend those investors either...Don't get involved in this matter. Stephanie has ties with the Damon family, right? If Putnam can help, there might be a 50% chance to get the role back."
"They're that powerful? Even with Putnam's help, there's only a 50% chance?"
"It depends on whether they're willing to give ground... You really shouldn't get involved. There are too many people you can't offend, so don't get yourself dragged into it!"
"I know, Dad. I'll be careful..."
"Good
futurf Stephanie gets the role
be your benefactor
future, so be sure to cherish
delet
understand?"
Maddie replied with frustration, "Dad, Steph and I are genuine friends, we don't care about personal gains..."
"Alright, at least communicate more with her and reassure her, so she knows there'll be more chances in the future."
"I got it, Dad...Steph really loves this role...I'll go comfort her then."
After hanging up, Maddie let out a gloomy sigh.
She was such a failure as "Ms. Maddie", unable to protect even her own friends.
Back in the dorm, Stephanie saw Gillian in tears and comforted her, saying, "What's the big deal? Is it worth crying over?"
Gillian, red-faced and furious, said,
"It's so
so outrageous! Stephanie,
don't care! Call your boyfrie
now and see if he can help!"
"Alright, alright, I'll call!" It was her role that was stolen, but Gillian was angrier than her.
But if Gillian's role got snatched, she would definitely be the same way.
Maddie walked in puzzled. She asked, "Did I just hear wrong? Gillian, whose role was snatched, yours or Stephanie's?"
"It's mine, of course," Stephanie
laughed heartily. "But she's just so upset because she cares about me... Don't worry, guys, I really don't see a problem. There will be plenty more opportunities in the future!" NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
