Chapter 498
Moreover… the director couldn’t help but recall how Jenny had felt so delightful in his arms last night. The memory
had him practically drooling at the thought.
Jenny had been quite clear that she would spend another night with him if he assisted in sabotaging Esther’s role.
The idea of such an attractive woman willingly spending time with him excited him greatly.
“So, promises mean nothing to you. That’s truly disappointing.” Pearl contemplated trying to reason with him but

“Alright, since you’ve made your decision, we won’t trouble you any further. I hope you won’t regret this in the
future.” With that, Pearl promptly ended the call.
Once he noticed the call had been disconnected, the director muttered to himself, “Pfft, this b* tch. How dare she
disrespect me? I’m doing her a favor by allowing Esther to be in this drama in the first place!”

“I really liked the script. It’s a shame it had to come to this,” Esther sighed, genuinely feeling disappointed. This role

“Do you still want to be in the drama?” Pearl looked at Esther’s disappointment and felt somewhat uneasy herself.
“It’s alright. Even if I can’t, it’s not a big deal. Besides, we can always find better roles,” Esther replied, not wanting
to trouble Pearl. She would suppress her desires, as she wouldn’t forgive herself if Pearl had to plead with that
insensitive director on her behalf.
Esther was trying to comfort herself, but Pearl had other plans in mind.

Esther couldn’t help but worry. “You’re not planning to give him a beating, are you? That’s a no-go. Even if you
could win, you can’t do that. What if he retaliates…”
“Don’t worry, I won’t do anything stupid.”
Yeah, right!
Pearl already had a brilliant idea in mind.
“Alright.” Esther was initially relieved but became anxious when she noticed the glint in Pearl’s eyes. Despite feeling
reassured at first, she suddenly felt anxious.
Pearl had been very cautious with what she had done before. She probably wouldn’t do anything extreme this time.
