Chapter 2214
“Everyone knows who is supporting Ivy. So, why on earth would someone of her stature. need to hustle for a dime in this rat race? She definitely was not putting in the blood, sweat, and tears like I was!
I think it’s crystal clear to all of us that she doesn’t even need this audience. Her background is not like the rest of us struggling actresses. Even if you put her on a pedestal, settling down and starting a family is just a matter of saying the word for her. She doesn’t plan on sticking around in this business for long.” Diana pressed on.
On that note, Diana accidentally hit the nail on the head.
Ivy, indeed, had no intentions of making a permanent home in the industry; she just wanted to snag roles that caught her fancy.
If a decent script came along, she would act for a few more years for her audience’s sake. If not, she would be better off quitting early and pursuing a different career path.
“If you disagree, then I guess this is where it ends. I hear there’s some edited footage that hasn’t been released yet! I…”
The moment Diana looked like she was about to make her move, the producer quickly intervened. “Is it just more screen time you want? We agree, okay? Just stop stirring up drama online!”
“You really do think fast, producer.”
Diana smirked as she got what she wanted and left, already planning how to clean up her image with the crew.
After all, she was slated to be the lead supporting actress, with a more pivotal role than Ivy’s. Any bad press could seriously ding her clout.
Ivy only heard about the deal after the fact, expecting the director and producer to take legal action to shut down Diana’s lies.
But who would have thought they would actually cave?
“What did she demand?” Ivy asked, clutching the script in her hands. It was not just her; even the crew was rattled by the outside chatter.
Even Colton had been affected, his work efficiency plummeting these past few days.
Of course, he would rather not compromise if he had a choice, but they were sorely lacking concrete evidence to disprove the doctored videos.
Compared to Diana’s well-prepared scheme, they had never anticipated such a debacle and thus had little footage that could serve as proof.
Colton sighed deeply.
Facing Ivy, he felt a recurring guilt for not protecting her better. He had promised her a straightforward gig focusing solely on acting, with no mess to worry about. Yet, Ivy’s life. had spiraled into chaos since joining the production.
One bizarre incident after another.
