?Chapter 1217:


    It was, for all intents and purposes, the female lead.


    “In fact, that’s not the original n,” Elvin said with a chuckle. “It was the investors who brought it up after seeing the footage from yourst show.”


    The show in question was the one Hadley had just finished dubbing.


    A hint of surprise crossed Hadley’s face. Could this truly be happening?


    “This is excellent news, truly something to celebrate,” Elvin said with a wink. “Take your time with the script. Immerse yourself in the role and make sure you dazzle at the audition.”


    Noticing her puzzled expression, he chuckled and gently tapped her shoulder.


    “No need for nerves. You’ve made your mark in the field already. The industry isn’t as overwhelming as it appears. Just concentrate on your performance.”


    The suddenness of the situation was jarring, but with such a chanceid out before her, backing down was not an option.


    “Got it,” Hadley affirmed with a nod.


    “Thanks, Mr. Webster.”


    “Anytime. Now, I must deal with some other business…”


    Hadley nodded in understanding.


    “I’ll let you get to it. I’ll be on my way.”


    “Alright. I’ll see you around.”


    Hadley exited the cramped meeting room, stepping into the open air, oblivious to A, who had quietly appeared from a hidden corner behind her.


    With a look tinged with envy, A observed Hadley.


    “She’s got all the luck.”


    In stark contrast to A, Hadley was a rtive novice, with just a single role—a minor one at that—to her name, yet she had nownded a leading role.


    A, on the other hand, had dedicated two years to East Entertainment Media and was still relegated to endless minor roles.


    A was under the impression that the root of it all was Hadley capturing Eric’s attention… But it wasn’t fair! Eric should have been her champion!

    Since Hadley’s arrival, it seemed Eric hadpletely overlooked A.


    Joy’s condition was on the upswing each day.


    Her appetite had increased notably ever since the surgery, and her cheeks had filled out noticeably within twenty days. She radiated health, energy, and a vibrant zest for life.


    Post-lunch, she resisted the urge to nap and kept ying until she grew tired by mid-afternoon.


    Hadley soothed her daughter into slumber and tucked her into bed. It was only then that Hadley found a moment for herself. She seized the script and sank into the sofa to read.


    Recently, her days were filled with tending to Joy, while her nights involvedte dubbing sessions, leaving little time for rest.


    Soon, fatigue overtook her, her eyelids grew heavy, and she too sumbed to sleep on the sofa.


    As they both slept deeply, the sky outside slowly turned to dusk. When Eric opened the hospital room door, the silence led him to think Hadley had departed.


    Upon entering the inner room, Eric found her sleeping on the sofa. He halted. He pondered for a moment. Wasn’t she supposed to have a date with Denver today?


    Then it clicked. Denver and his family had traveled overseas for a rtive’s wedding. Eric was aware because Marshall was also invited.
