Chapter: 55
"You are right! A fish eye could never become a pearl!"
Vivian echoed, finally feeling a sense of relief. In her eyes, Maria, the country girl, was just a fish eye.
In comparison, Vivian, who was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, was a valuable pearl.
"But..." Vivian continued with a hint of worry. "What if Maria is Lucky enough to become the lead actress in the show?’
Now that Vivian had failed in the audition, she couldn't bear to see Maria succeed.
Patricia shook her head with a faint smile. "Silly girl, listen to me. Just before coming here, I signed a contract with Yeez Entertainment. I will be playing the role of a noblewoman in the Legend of Anne. As for the lead actress, it's definitely Lyndsey and not some nameless country girl."
Patricia was telling the truth as far as she knew; she had no idea that
Lyndsey was selected as the Lead actress only because Maria had refused the part.
“Really? That's great!" Vivian was overjoyed. It turned out that she hadn't lost to Maria after all.
As for the fact that Lyndsey was the lead actress of the show, it was something that Vivian could easily accept.
After all, Vivian had only starred in a web series, while Lyndsey was an award-winning actress known all over the country.
However, Vivian still had a request. She held Patricia's arm and pleaded with her.
“Aunt Patricia, I didn't get cast for any role in the show yet. Please help me!"
Seeing Vivian act spoiled like this, Patricia didn't feel annoyed or repulsed. Instead, she gave her a doting look and took out a performance contract from her limited edition LV bag.
“I've already arranged it for you. Although it is a supporting role you'll appear in a Lot of scenes. You will be acting as my daughter..
Unaware that there was a guest at home, Maria stayed in her room. She was browsing her phone when she received a message from Anthony.
“Miss Jenkins, there will be a party at Viton Hotel tomorrow night at seven. If you're available, could you come with me?"
Anthony asked so politely without sounding so pushy or bossy.
If Maria didn't want to go, she could easily refuse him.
“Alright. My schedule’s not as busy these days anyway,” Maria replied with honesty.
Since she took a break from conducting business in Heaven, she actually had much more time on her plate.
On top of that, Maria had promised that she would cooperate with Anthony for a year. She wouldn't deliberately avoid keeping her end of the bargain, especially since he asked nicely.
To make sure she would do well, Maria sent another message to find out more. “What kind of event is it? Do I need to prepare for anything specific?"
“It's just a small party. There's no need to worry. Although, I'LL advise you to refrain from eating before going to the party and enjoy the food they serve. I hear the chef is excellent."
As though he knew what was on her mind, Anthony gave her reassurance that he wasn't pressuring her for anything.
