“You… I know there have been talks about me surpassing your popularity in the show, but
that’s the director’s decision, not ours, right? Did you have to vent your dissatisfaction on
me?”
Diana wiped a tear from her eye, her expression of utter dejection. The bandage peeking
out from under her sleeve made her look even more pitiable, and more than a few
onlookers felt a pang of sympathy for her.
“Hey there, Diana, don’t be sad. Get on up,” Ivy offered, reaching out to help her up, only
to have her hand sharply pushed away.
“Thanks, but I’d rather sort things out with you directly instead of you harboring any more.

It was then that Ivy realized that Diana was no angel either, cut from the same cloth as
Giselle! And once again, Ivy found herself at the center of a drama storm due to her lack

Coming to her senses, Ivy backed up a few steps, crossing her arms defensively and
watching Diana’s little performance.

“I have no issues with you, Diana, and I really don’t get why you’re making such
accusations,” Ivy said, her tone nonchalant. Diana felt slighted, as if her anger was being
brushed off, and her inner fire blazed even hotter.
She could not fathom why the crowd was so taken with Ivy. She had multiple moments to
shine in the trailer, her acting prowess on full display, yet her fan base had grown by less
than a hundred thousand. On the other hand, Ivy seemed to draw a legion of fans with just
a glimpse in a trailer. Even Diana’s agent could not help but praise Ivy’s natural charm
with the audience.
Even those who were not fans enjoyed watching Ivy’s shows. For an actress, this sort of
appeal was like a mysterious force. Despite Ivy being a newbie, her charisma and acting
skills put her in the spotlight, much to Diana’s chagrin.

out, but Ivy’s casual remark had left her pale with rage.
“Ms. Dunhill, I’m already hurt, and now you’ve caused me another fall. Do you not want
the film’s production to get back on track? As actors, we shouldn’t be so petty, engaging

Colton massaged his temples, feeling a headache coming on. He did not know what had

past one diva’s exit, and now the leading lady was at odds with the supporting actress.

“Let’s talk this out without making a scene. Help Diana up, for heaven’s sake. What does it
look like, her slumping on the floor like that?”
He had been busy with the equipment and had not seen how Diana ended up on the
ground, but it seemed clear she believed Ivy had pushed her down.
Diana’s entourage hurried over to help her up, and during the process, she could not resist

being insisting on working through an injury? In the end, you’re the one holding up
production.”
