NovelEnglishChapter 30 The room descended into an uneasy quiet.
It seemed Elva had conveniently ignored the fact that Elijah had accompanied Sandra to help her secure the role
from Elizabeth, not the reverse.
“Elva, please, that’s enough,” Sandra interjected, extending a hand towards Elva in an attempt to quell further
disruptions.
However, her voice dwindled into a murmur, her strength faltering mid-sentence.

Sandra spoke up softly.
“Elva, this isn’t Ms.
Elizabeth's doing.
It's just my delicate health.”
She lifted her gaze to Elizabeth, offering a faint smile.
“Ms.
Elizabeth, I'm sorry if | startled you.
My health is fragile, and emotions often overwhelm me.
You shouldn't blyourself.

“How can you say it’s not her fault? If she hadn't competed with you for the role, would you have drained

possibly make amends?”
The tension in the room was palpable.
With the influential actress and the CEO of the Norris Group on one side and an inexperienced newcomer on the
other, the air was thick with unspoken judgments.
Even Stewart could only give Elizabeth a sympathetic glance, his head subtly shaking as if advising her to
endure the moment.
Ruby, unable to hold back any longer, stepped forward to voice her thoughts, but Elizabeth stopped her with a
gesture.
