Julia didn't respond and gave Consuela a puzzled expression.

"Would you like to take a closer look?" Consuela handed her the magazine. Julia arched an eyebrow at

her friend and pursed her lips. "Stop beating around the bush. I don't understand what you're trying to

tell me."

Consuela let out a disgruntled sigh and pointed at the article. "No wonder you can't become a famous

star. Look at this feature and tell me what his company is."

"Starry Sky Media?" Julia slowly drawled the name with a hesitant shrug. Suddenly, she realized what

Consuela was trying to tell her. "You mean to say... Eric is the CEO of Starry Sky Media?"

"Yes, finally!" Consuela groaned with sarcastic joy and rolled her eyes. "You keep telling me that you

don't have any resources. Sometimes, I don't understand what's happening in your head."

Julia awkwardly stammered, "I didn't know that he has such a high position. Besides, he's still my

friend. I don't want to use our friendship to achieve my goals. It makes me feel uncomfortable."

"Don't be silly," Consuela spat. "If it were somebody else, they would have already asked Eric for a

position in his company. I'm sure he would be willing to help you. You don't have to always work so

hard, sometimes you just have to take the shortcut."

"I know." Julia bitterly sighed. "But you know me, Consuela. If I really was that type of person, then I

would have been famous a long time ago. Although I can't change the way people look at me, the least

I can do is challenge myself to become a better actress by working hard."

"Okay, okay, you win," Consuela angrily retorted back, frustrated at Julia's decision.

Neither of them mentioned Eric's name anymore. When they arrived, they separated ways. While

Consuela placed Julia's things in the dormitory, Julia headed towards the set.

"Julia, you're finally here." Director Guo came up to greet her. "Hurry up and change your clothes, we'll

film your scene later."

"Okay." Julia obediently nodded and went to the dressing room to find a stylist waiting for her to

change. The stylist handed Julia the script and said, "Miss Gu, while you read the script, I'll start putting

your make-up on."

She gave the stylist a small smile and skimmed through it, feeling a little uneasy as she read through.

It was about a love triangle, and it was an oblique reference to Terence, Jean, and Julia.

The role that Julia got was the heroine's sister, who loved the hero so much that she decided to drug

him. Forced to break up with the heroine, the hero was forced to end up marrying her instead. Despite

the love that her character had for the hero, they eventually break up after enduring many obstacles. In

the end, he reunited with the heroine and they lived happily together.

Although it was a happy ending, Julia frowned at the storyline.

"Is that Julia? Why is she here?"

Just as she finished reading the script, she looked up to find several young girls entering the dressing

room. They were pointing at her.

"Exactly! How could she be so shameless to leave her own mother behind? She really is a vicious

woman."

"I really don't understand why Director Guo decided to choose such an outrageous woman like her."

"What do you know? The female supporting role is also vicious. Perhaps she's the best actress to

portray her."

Julia rolled her eyes and ignored the gossip around her.

She had already prepared herself for the worst when she decided to take on the job. The comments

that they had were nothing to her.

"Miss Gu." Suddenly, Julia heard the chattering girls shut their mouths and greet Jean with respect.

Jean nodded and smiled at them. "I came here because the director was looking for you. You should

head back quickly."

"Yes, Miss Gu. We'll leave now." The girls respectfully bowed their heads and left the room.

As Jean approached her sister, she saw that the stylist had already finished putting on Julia's make-up.

She stared at Julia's reflection and said, "Now that you're done, the director will call you out soon."

"Okay." The corners of Julia's mouth turned up as the stylist left her and Jean alone in the dressing

room.

"Have you finished the script?" Jean smirked as she sat across Julia. "What do you think about it? Did I

write well?"

"I was looking for you." Julia's eyebrows furrowed at her sister. "What are you doing? Do you think this

will change what actually happened? You drugged me three years ago!"

Julia was so angry, she aggressively flung the script on the dressing table.

"Julia..." Jean calmly smiled at her sister. "It's just a drama. Nobody is saying that this is true. Why are

you so anxious about it?"

"You are clearly fabricating the truth." Julia finally understood why her sister insisted on having her play

the role. It was ridiculous.

"I'm fabricating facts?" Jean mockingly smiled and chuckled. "I just wrote a novel that Director Guo

thinks will be a hit TV series. Did I say what I wrote is the truth? I really don't understand why you are in

such a hurry to clarify everything."

"You..." Julia narrowed her eyes at Jean. Although Jean had a point, she still felt uncomfortable.

"Okay, my dear sister." Jean smiled and slowly reached out to hold her sister's hand. "With your on-

going situation, no director is willing to hire you, right? I hope that you act well. This drama is your only

chance. Don't say that I didn't bother to help you."

Jean chuckled, filled with glee.

She was right. Although Julia was extremely angry now, she couldn't do anything about it.

This was her only chance. She had to swallow her pride and act, even if she knew that Jean would be

there to mock her.

Julia sneered and gave her sister a menacing glare. "Do you think you can knock me down by doing

this? In your dreams! I will prove to you that I will continue to stand high and firm."

"It's good that you can still think that way." Jean smirked and rolled her eyes. "At first, I was really

worried that you would be angry and turn down the offer after reading the script."

She leaned closer to Julia and lowered her voice. "Let's wait and see. The real fun has yet to come."
