A Night with Her Cruel Mate Chapter 53 Seeing The Situation Clearly

Prev Chapter Next Chapter

When Consuela saw Julia shaking her head, the light in her eyes extinguished. With a passive smile

she cocked an eyebrow. "That's right. How could Director Zhang risk using you at such a crucial time?"

She took a deep breath and tried her best to sound positive. "It doesn't matter. We can always look for

other opportunities. We'll succeed as long as we continue to aim high for our goals."

"Consuela, please listen to me," Julia pleaded, she was embarrassed that her agent had been so

overworked by taking care of her.

Although Jean wrote the script for Director Guo's movie, she was willing to do anything as long as she

could earn money and ease Consuela's worried mind.

"Julia, don't be disappointed. Even though Director Zhang will be shooting a great movie, we'll be able

to get a better offer in the future. What do you say?" Consuela chattered endlessly, trying to comfort the

both of them.

Julia sighed, "It's not Director Zhang's movie, but Director Guo's TV series."

Consuela stopped talking and froze. "Have you forgotten? We attended Director Guo's birthday party a

couple weeks ago. Although Director Zhang is a great director, it's just a movie. On the other hand,

Director Guo is creating a TV series with fifty episodes. Think about it, we'll be paid handsomely."

Julia beamed at Consuela. "After this series is finished, I might even be able to move out."

"Julia..." Consuela narrowed her eyes in suspicion, not expecting Director Guo to help Julia. When she

found out that Jean had written the script, she didn't want Julia to shoot.

Although she was Julia's agent, the young actress was still her friend.

She knew that tension between Jean and Julia. She couldn't just watch Julia jump into a trap.

Consuela tilted her head and furrowed her eyebrows. "Have we arrived at an agreement? I'm not

allowing you to take on this drama. Why do you—"

"Why not?" Julia insisted, her mouth turning up. "This is a good chance for me to play a supporting role.

If I don't take it, then this opportunity will go to waste."

"But..." Consuela tried to reason out with her. "You and Jean are not exactly on great terms right now

and she wrote the script. It's obvious that this is another trap. How can you be so stupid to fall into it so

easily?"

She stared at Julia with wide eyes and continued her sermon. "Julia, listen to me. We'll find other

opportunities. You don't have to act in this drama."

"No way." Julia shook her head and firmly replied, "I have already promised Director Guo that I'll be on

set tomorrow. You can't change my mind anymore."

"But..."

"That's the end of our discussion." Julia let out a puff of air and sat next to Consuela. She gently

grabbed her friend's hand. "I know that you're worried about me, but what doesn't kill us makes us

stronger, huh? Jean always wants to make things hard for me, doesn't she? I'm not afraid of her at all.

She gave me this opportunity, and I won't let it slip. You told me that even if the road is hard, I'll be okay

as long as I have my way. I don't need to be afraid of fighting the battles I will eventually face. Don't you

agree?"

"You are right." Consuela looked at her with a scowl. "But you know Jean better than I do. Do you think

she'll leave you alone? Let's talk about what had happened. You and your mother were fine, but she

turned against you the moment Jean came back from abroad. I honestly feel that she planned

everything.

Your mom slandered you, and Jean used it to her advantage and made herself look like a filial

daughter. If you accept the role, then you might have a hard time." Consuela groaned with annoyance.

She wanted Julia to listen to her.

"Of course I understand." Julia smiled bitterly. "But this is the only choice I have, and I don't want to

turn it down. You know how competitive this industry is and it's taken so long for me to achieve my

goals. I can't just watch the agency banish me from what I like doing. I'm not getting any younger. What

else can I do to compete with other younger and more beautiful girls?

I only have one chance. I know it's going to be difficult, but I have to give it a shot. Do you understand?"

Consuela finally agreed, seeing that Julia's arguments were reasonable and practical.

With a penetrating gaze, Consuela warned her, "Since you've already made up your mind, I have to

support you. But you cannot regret this no matter what happens in the future. Even if you cry when

you're alone, you have to put on a brave face in front of the crew, okay?"

"Rest assured that I understand." Julia nodded her head with a disgruntled smile on her face.

How could she regret what she'd already decided?

Looking at Julia's determined face, Consuela took her phone out to decline the offer from the variety

show. "There's no turning back for you now."

Julia pursed her lips and nodded. She didn't know why she felt sad inside.

Disregarding those feelings, she reached out and hugged Consuela. "Thank you."

"You don't need to thank me," Consuela snapped. "You're being more and more stubborn. If you keep

acting like this, I don't think you'll need an agent anymore."

"I don't need one anyways." Julia gave Consuela a sweet smiled. "I just need a friend who can take

care of me. Luckily, I've already found one."

"You are becoming such a sweet talker," Consuela snapped as she stood up. Julia arched an eyebrow

and asked where she was going.

With a final glare, Consuela said, "Julia, since you're going to the set tomorrow, I'm going to help you

pack your things. Are you really going to come back here every night just to sleep?"

With a grin, Julia thanked Consuela.

"No problem." Consuela shook her head and walked away.
