“In the office.”
“Thankyou.” Eliza turned around and left.
The few employees walked out of the pantry in trepidation and asked their
colleague outside, “How long has Eliza been here?”
“I have no idea, when I came over, I saw Miss Robbins standing here,” the
colleague responded.
Those employees trembled in fear, wishing the ground would swallow them up.

In the president’s office.
When Eliza entered, Cindy’s manager, Madison Clare, was also present. Madison
grinned. “Please thank President Jewell on my behalf. It’s all thanks to him.”
“Cough.” Shedrick quickly glared at Madison. “Hurry up and leave. I’m busy.”
Madison turned around with a smile and greeted Eliza enthusiastically. “Eliza, what brings you here today? I’ve
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtalready had Cindy sign the contract for the period drama the company recommended to Hailey the other day.
Thank you for giving Cindy such a great opportunity. I’ll treat you to a meal next time.”
“You’re welcome.”
Eliza nodded and replied nonchalantly.
“It’s very generous of Eliza. Anyway, you do not need resources, unlike Cindy...”
“Madison, since you have so much time on your hands, would you like to stay for dinner?” shedrick mocked with a
discreet smile.
“That’s because I haven’t seen Eliza for a long time. Fine. I’ll leave now.” Madison’s lips curled into a smile. Then,
she waved and left.
shedrick stood up and asked Eliza, “Would you like to have coffee or tea?”
“Coffee, I guess. It suits my current mood more, doesn’t it?” Eliza said with a chuckle.
shedrick choked. “Eliza, don’t worry. I’ll give you better resources to replace the period drama. Have you heard
about the undercover drama called ‘The Secret Battle’? I’ve contacted Director Just, and he has agreed to make
you the female lead in the drama.”
Eliza laughed. “I’ve heard from other actresses in the industry about the drama before. It’s a good drama, but it’s a
male- oriented drama, so the female lead’s personality won’t stand out. Basically, any actress can act in the
drama.”
“Don’t say that. Many people dream about having a role in such a good drama.”
Eliza did not bother to beat around the bush. “ Since you find the drama great, why don’t you ask Cindy to act in
it?”
shedrick was at a loss for words.
He felt like dying. He was so ashamed as a president.
However, he could not call the shots since Chester had pulled some strings with him.
He felt a strong urge to beat Chester up. Why did Chester have to sleep with Eliza? Now, things had worsened
because of how much of a sc*mbag Chester was. That was fine, but shedrick was the one left feeling embarrassed.
Eliza noticed that shedrick was quiet, so she changed the topic. “Alright. Let’s
cast the drama aside. Since Cindy will be setting up a studio, I want one as well.
Given that I’m more popular than her, why can’t I have my own studio?”
“Eliza, the contracts both of you signed earlier were different,” shedrick said.
Eliza understood the point. “I signed the worst contract while she signed the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcontract with the best treatment from the company, right? Her contract gives
her more flexibility and freedom, as well as a lower commission rate.”
Shedrick was speechless.
“Do you think I’m easily bullied?” Eliza’s pretty face was frosty.
shedrick raised both his hands to indicate surrender. “Can you look for Chester?
As long as you can persuade him, I’ll let you take over the position. Eliza, I’m not
the largest shareholder in the company.”
“I understand.”
Eliza nodded. Then, she rose to her feet and walked away.
Shedrick’s head hurt as he dialed Chester’s number.
“What’s the matter? Spit it out. I have a surgery to perform...”
Shedrick said in a huff, “Eliza came to meet me just now. She’s unhappy that
the drama that originally belonged to her has now been given to Cindy, she also
insists on setting up her own studio.”
