As expected, there were netizens who were enraged by this sudden turn of events.

More precisely, they were furious with Maria's decision.

Not only did she refuse to go to college, but she also signed a contract with Yeez Entertainment as one of its artists.

“This can't be happening.

We must stop Maria. She's not qualified to be an actress."

"Boycott Maria!"

“Boycott Yeez Entertainment!"

“Boycott Female Military Counsellor!"

Soon, the term "Boycott Maria" started trending on Twitter together with the topics related to her.

The netizens branded Maria's actions as pernicious. Even her fans who had been supporting her all this time had stopped defending her.

However, Maria could not care less about what the others were saying. She remained unfazed despite the demands to boycott her.

After being offered the lead role in the movie Female Military Counsellor, she decided to keep working on her acting skills.

One day, Maria arrived on the set. Filmmaking, especially in its early stages, was a laborious and intricate procedure. A movie could not be completed without the coordinated efforts of many people.

The wardrobe stylists, the props department, and the camera crew were all bustling on the set. The actors and the actresses had no time to spare either.

Today, the director would host a table read.

The lead cast, including Maria, was seated around a table. They sat in silence as they waited for the director. Maria, in particular, stuck out like a sore thumb because she was the only one who was not holding a printed copy of the script.

The director was late. Five minutes had passed since the scheduled time, but Francis had yet to arrive.

Before this, Francis had a reputation for being strict with time, and he could not stand unpunctual people. That was why it was strange for him to be late.

However, the cast was not the least curious about why he was late because the hate campaign against Maria on Twitter had drawn their attention.

It did not help that the woman was with them at the moment.

They noticed right away that Maria did not have a script, which confused them. How would she go through her lines with the director without it?

The others who had harbored resentment for Maria ever since she was cast as the film's female protagonist could not help but feel satisfied as the netizens hated her so much now.

“Maria, didn't you bring your copy of the script?" Claire asked.

She first met Maria at the audition and now they were sitting next to each other.
