Chapter 55
Ophelia shot Eileen a frown. “You know stuff about computers?”
Eileen shrugged modestly replying, “Just a little. Tiny bit, really”
Without some computer skills, she wouldn’t be able to nabi Prism Pulse Entertainment’s dirty laundry
before it was aired, then hand it over to Phyllis
Ophelia stared at Eileen for a moment, then advised, “Regardless how you got the passwords, I
suggest you knock it off. We’re gonna have someone else manage your Twitter from now on.”
Eileen blinked at her. “Manage?”
The implication was subtle.
Ophelia coughed and grumbled, “A few things have happened. Basically, the company sees potential in
you and they we made a new development plan for
you.”
Eileen locked lost 1 don’t get it.”
Ophelia responded somewhat iritably “It means, the company will be focusing more resources on you.”
Ophelia was being delicate. She didn’t want to tell Eileen straight up that her video went viral, got the
company’s top dogs’ attention, and now, with her online reputation boosted, they had decided to make
her their main act next year
She was worried Eileen might let it all go to her head.
After spilling the beans. Ophelia sneaked a peek at Eileen’s reaction
Eileen was just staring back her face full of fear and humiliation.
Ophelia felt uneasy. What’s with that look?”

Eileen lowered her head, covered her mouth, and said helplessly, ‘Ophelia just tell me. Is there
someone from the higher ups who wants to pull something shady on me? Showbiz is such a filthy

Rubbish! Ophelia was so mad she almost missed a turn. What the hell do you take our company for?”
Eileen blinked at Ophelia
Ophelia was so mad that her stomach hurt. In the end, she just glared and told Eileen about her video
going viral
Eileen burst into laughter after hearing it
Ophelia knew all too well that this person couldn’t be praised even a bit, as shed become concerted at
the slightest compliment.
Ophelia yelled, “Stop laughing!”
HAHAHAHAHA” Eileen couldn’t stop laughing.
Ophelia’s face darkened even more. Just then, her phone rang. Ophelia put on her Bluetooth headset
and barked into it, “What?”
A minute later, Ophelia hung up, her expression looking terrible
She had no mood to argue with Eileen anymore, and told her. ‘Til drop you somewhere, then you can
grab a cab back to Cinema City”
Eileen looked at her and asked, “What happened?”
Ophelia said. There’s some issue with Colin, I need to head over”
Colin?
Eileen thought of Colin, who shared her dislike for Hubery, and said. “Isn’t he supposed to be joining
that talent show. He’s been taking classes at the company recently, hasn’t he?”
Ophelia said. “The show has started, he went for recording yesterday”
Eileen raised an eyebrow. “His recording didn’t go well?”
Ophelia shook her head. There are a hundred trainees, performing their first solo acts over three days.
His was a duet dance. His partner had an emergency and is now in the hospital, which might cause
him big trouble”
Eileen was stunned
Ophelia had already found a spot to park the car, and said, “Get off here.”
Eileen didn’t move, and she just said, T’ll go with you.”
Ophelia looked at her
Eileen said, “Let’s go, I don’t have any scenes scheduled today”
Hearing this, Ophelia didn’t waste time and drove off towards the Capital TV station.
When they arrived at Capital TV, they explained the situation to the receptionist. She made a phone
call and soon Colin appeared
Colin was in his stage costume. Seeing Eileen there was a surprise, but he didn’t have time for
pleasantries. He quickly asked Ophelia, “Ophelia, what do we do now?”
Ophelia tried to calm him down. Tve asked Doreen to step in, she should be here soon.”
Colintocked worried. “Can Doreen do it? She’s a ballet dancer, she hasn’t done street dance before?
Ophelia said, “I sent her the practice video of you and Fiona. She can watch it on the way here and do
some freestyle on stage. It’s better than nothing.”
Colin wiped his face, looking frantic.
Ophelia patted his shoulder “Fiona has acute appendicitis, she’s in so much pain she almost fainted.
She really couldn’t make it, don’t blame her.”
Colin gave a bitter smile. I dont blame her. I just feel like maybe it’s fate. I’m not really cut out for
singing and dancing. Back in school, I only scored in drama, not dance”
Ophelia said to him, “Joining a singing and dancing show doesn’t mean you have to be good at singing
and dancing. What you need is exposure,”
Colin understood that
He took a deep breath, looked up, and finally greeted Eileen. “Hi.”
Eileen thought for a moment, then asked, “Do you have a video of you dancing?”
Colin was taken aback. “Yeah…”

“Let me see”
Colin was dumbfounded.
Ophelia looked surprised too. You can dance? Street dance?”
“A little bit “Eileen didn’t explain further, and she just waved her hand. “The video.”
Colin hurriedly took out his phone and showed her the video.
The dance lasted five minutes. Since Colin had no dance background and Fiona did, the
choreographer highlighted Fiona to make up for Colin
Eileen watched it twice, then asked Colin. ‘Do we have time to rehearse?”
Colin checked the clock on the wall We have about half an hour till my turn, should be enough. But can
you really dance street dance?”
I dunno, give it a shot, Eileen said, “Lead the way”
Colin looked at Ophelia again
Ophelia was also at her wit’s end. She gave Eileen a hard look, scratched her head, then finally gritted
her teeth and said, “Alright, go. If it really doesn’t
work out, Doreen will have to step in
Colin quickly led Eileen towards the dance room
Twenty minutes later, Doreen arrived, huffing and puffing.
As soon as Ophelia saw her, she hurriedly dialed Colin’s number. It took several attempts before the
call finally went through.
Colin’s voice was full of excitement, ‘Ophelia, Eileen’s doing great. Gotta go, we’re about to go on
stage.” And with that, the call ended.
Ophelia stared at her disconnected phone, thought for a moment, then pulled Doreen along to the
broadcast hall.
They had just reached the door of the hall when they saw the host on stage with a microphone, “Next
up, we have Colin from EchoWave Media Group. Colin, twenty years old, will be performing the Morico
dance. And joining him on stage is his dance partner…”
The host hesitated noticeably at this point.
Then, with widened eyes, he checked his cue cards for quite some time before he continued hesitantly,
“Eileen. Let’s give them a warm welcome”
