"This is what they call a femme fatale!"


    "Le is so pitiful. She''s been in the industry for years but hasn''t gained any poprity. I know someone in the crew, and they said nothing was wrong with L''s camera. But L insisted it was broken and demanded 500 thousand from


    her.


    "What''s worse is her father is ill, and all the money she''s earned has gone to his treatment! L really deserves to die!"


    L had spent the afternoon busy on set but finally found some free time. She logged into her long-neglected Twitter ount and posted the entire recording of the incident.


    She added the caption-"A clear conscience needs no defense."


    Seeing her post, most people criticized her before even listening to the recording. But as people began to listen to the full recording, a heavy silence followed.


    "Why are these marketing ounts spreading rumors? They don''t even know the full story and are already pushing out posts?"


    "It wasn''t L who made her kneel. She told Le to get up, but Le refused."


    "I''ve figured it out. The two people who helped Le up were Jamie and Teddy, both new actors. L is their agent now!"


    "Le intentionally broke her property and then tried to ckmail her morally. There''s a reason she''s not popr!"


    After posting the recording, L didn''t bother checking the online response.


    Herpany hadn''t contacted her since that phone call, which was actually a good thing. But no matter how well things were going, she would always be thepany''s abandoned pawn with Dorian around.


    Recently, she looked into the current state of major entertainmentpanies in the country. Going solo would definitely be difficult, especially since Jamie and Teddy were still new, and she couldn''t manage everything alone.


    She decided she needed to find a suitable agency and an assistant.


    After weighing her options, she narrowed it down to Magi Pictures-which was under the Morgan family, and Lane Group. Both of them were the most suitable choices.


    After handling some things, she quickly washed up andy in bed, thinking things over. Just as she started to feel sleepy, her phone rang. She was startled to see an unfamiliar number and wasn''t keen on answering it.


    The phone rang several more times before she finally answered.


    "L, why didn''t you ask me for help today?" Dorian''s angry voice red through the phone.


    "Why would I ask you for help?"


    Hearing her tone of distaste, he felt a fire stir inside him. "Because I''m your boyfriend."


    She was speechless. She sat up and took a deep breath. "Dorian, stop joking. You keep saying you''re my boyfriend. But when I''m in trouble, instead of helping me, you first question why I didn''t ask you for help.


    "Or have you been watching from the sidelines, waiting for me to hit rock bottom so I woulde crawling to beg for your help?


    "If you truly want me back, show me you haven''t changed. In my mind, the Dorian I know would rush over the moment I''m in trouble and, without hesitation, punch that disgusting investor who tried to force me, not wait for me to beg him for help!"


    There was silence on the other end, and she could hear his heavy breathing through the phone.


    She lowered her gaze and hung up without saying a word. She didn''t block the number, and he didn''t call back.


    The next day, L continued working with the crew. She hadn''t nned on going to Nexus Entertainment that day.


    However, Jamie called her first, her tone unusually cheerful. "Ms. Hart, let''s have dinner together tonight."


    Before L could respond, she heard Teddy shout in the background, "Ms. Hart, don''t go! Jamie definitely wants to y matchmaker because her brother ising this afternoon!"


    "Get out of the way." She pushed him aside. "Ms. Hart, don''t listen to him. I''m just asking, and I won''t force you.


    "It''s my brother''s idea. He wants to thank you for looking out for me. We''lle pick you up."
