NovelEnglishChapter 412 Stuck in Review
Zelena's remarks only served to widen the gulf between Lydia and Violeta. Zelena was merely voicing the
frustration that Lydia had been harbouring. Lydia felt that the Best Supporting Actress Award should have been
hers.
For years, she had been close to winning it, believing that this year was finally her chance, only for Violeta to
take it from her.
Previously, Violeta had overshadowed Lydia at a comeback event and had persuaded Wendy to block Lydia's
career shift. Now, Violeta had taken the Best Supporting Actress Award as well. Their rivalry was well-
established.
Lydia wasn't about to let Violeta escape unscathed.
However, her years in the industry had taught her to keep her emotions in check, not allowing Zelena's
provocations to expose her true feelings too easily.
With a subtle smile, Lydia looked at Zelena. "Lena, what exactly are you trying to say?"
Zelena put on an air of innocence. "l just feel sorry for you, Lydia."
As Lydia continued to remove her makeup with an indifferent tone, she replied, "Life is full of regrets. You get
used to it. Maybe this award just wasn't meant for me." Zelena was caught off guard by Lydia's composed
response.

She quickly shifted the subject.
"By the way, Lydia, when is your new going to air?"
Lydia answered, "Soon. I've heard it's passed the review process and should be on air by the end of next month
at the latest."
Zelena beamed. "That's wonderful news! Did you know Violeta's new is supposed to air around the same
time?"
Lydia's hand froze mid-motion.
Right!
Last year, while Violeta was working on her new series, Lydia was also on set.
Both shows were in similar stages of production, so their airing dates were likely to coincide.
If they were to air simultaneously, comparisons would be inevitable.
Being in the industry for years, Lydia had a reputation for high ratings and was used to topping the charts,
especially in the realm of youth idol s.
Her new series, 'As Soon As We Meet', was a period , marking a new direction for her.
If it did well, it could draw more attention from directors and potentially ease her transition into the film industry.
Therefore, the show's ratings were crucial.
However, Violeta's swift ascent meant that if their shows overlapped and Violeta's outshone hers, Lydia could
becthe subject of ridicule in the industry. The thought of this possibility unsettled Lydia.
She had to prevent it from happening.
Seeing Lydia's shift in expression, Zelena knew her words had struck a chord.
She continued carefully, "But you know, Lydia, you're actually luckier than Violeta. Your show has already passed
review. I've heard that Violeta's is having sissues and is still stuck in the review process. There's no
telling if it will even make it to broadcast.
Lydia's eyes lit up. "Stuck in review? What's the situation, Lena? Do you know more details?"
Zelena shrugged. "I don't have all the specifics, but I've heard it's due to ssensitive content. Apparently, a
complaint letter was filed, and they're still looking into it."
If the complaint was valid, Violeta's new could face jeopardy, potentially being postponed or even
cancelled.
Even if it wasn't outright rejected,

Regardless of the outcome, it was beneficial for Lydia.
She didn't know who lodged the complaint, but the anonymous person had inadvertently helped her.
Lydia inquired, "Is your source reliable?"
Zelena responded, "I heard it from

inclined to believe it's likely true."
Lydia lowered her gaze, contemplating the implications.
With her objective achieved, Zelena found an excuse to leave the dressing room.
As soon as Zelena departed, Lydia pulled out her phone and dialled a number.
"Hello, Hollis. | need you to investigate something for me."
