She had also found it hard to believe that Maria could shoot such a stunt scene herself. What she really couldn't get her head round most was that Maria refused to do it just to provide a job to a meager stand-in?

Worse still, at the end of the video, the director Francis could be heard telling the whole crew that they could take the day off since they were actually ahead of schedule, and he would use the extra day to edit the scenes they had already filmed.

Maria had saved the day by not slowing down the progress of shooting. In fact, they'd finished ahead of schedule thanks to Maria's capabilities.

This was why Maria had been at home and even posted a picture of her new kitchen knife on Twitter.

Jessie realized that she shouldn't have done what she did on Twitter. Her actions were mean and stupid.

Jessie was frightened though.

She couldn't stop refreshing Twitter. The comments under her post was flooding in.

One thousand...

Ten thousand...

Thirty thousand!

One hundred thousand!!!

Jessie didn't have the courage to read those comments at all.

"Jessie! What's wrong with you? The company tried so hard to get you the supporting role in the movie Female Military Counsellor but you go and throw it down the drain just Like that? You idiot!"

Jessie was on the phone with the boss of the entertainment company she worked for.

The boss sneered and continued scolding, "You can do whatever you want after you get popular. But look at what you've gone and done! You have made a fool of yourself. Do you see what the netizens are saying about you now? They are calling you names. A nasty bitch! A drama queen! Even those who didn't know you before now hate you. Are you satisfied with yourself?"

“Sir, please don't be mad. I'll fix..."

“Forget it! There‘s nothing left to fix."

The boss interrupted her, effectively banishing her hope of having him help her out of this mess. The boss scoffed and added, "We received a termination letter from the crew. Another actress will replace you. Come back to the company once you leave the hospital. You no longer have any business with the movie.

“What do you mean? My contract was terminated?" Jessie shouted.

“Who do they think they are? They had no right to terminate our contract just like that! This is a breach of contract. They have to pay me penalties."

The boss laughed dryly and said coldly, “Penalty? Just forget about it. How much do you think you're going to get? The decision to terminate your contract was taken by Novel Hub and Yeez Entertainment Company. Do you really want to ask for a penalty?"

Novel Hub was the mainstay of the network literary industry while Yeez Entertainment Company was the leader of the entertainment industry.

These two powerful companies had come together for the adaptation of Female Military Counsellor. They could easily terminate a contract with an actress who was only playing a supporting role in the movie.

Yes, Jessie had every right to ask both companies for a penalty, but if she did that, things would get worse for her. She would be directly offending the companies.
