Walking to a corner, she answered the call with a simple “Hello.”
“Is this Miss Edwards? I’m the HR manager from Vine Entertainment,” the voice on the other end of the
line said.
Ariana’s eyes widened with surprise as she heard the name of Vine Entertainment.
She knew that it was as famous as SJ Entertainment and had produced many successful artists.
She didn’t expect that they would be interested in her.
The person on the phone continued, “Our company appreciates your ability very much. Can you make
an appointment for a meeting with us? Your annual salary will definitely be higher than what you’re
currently earning.”
Ariana could sense the arrogance in the tone of the speaker, who probably thought that she was an
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtinexperienced newbie who could be easily swayed with money.
However, Ariana didn’t falter. With a calm and collected demeanor, she replied, “It’s my honor to be
appreciated by your company, but I have no intention of changing my current agency. I’m sorry.”
The HR manager was clearly displeased by Ariana’s rejection, but her boss had given strict orders to
poach Ariana at any cost. So, despite her frustration, she maintained a polite tone and said, “Miss
Edwards, please reconsider. Our company is just as good as Sj Entertainment, if not better. You can
name your terms, and we will do our best to meet them. Take your time to think it over, but I hope you’ll
consider this opportunity seriously.”
Although the words sounded sincere, Ariana could detect a hint of condescension in the HR manager’s
voice. When the call abruptly ended, she knew what that meant.
Ariana sighed and slipped her phone back into her pocket, deciding to forget about the offer for now.
Later that evening, after Tyler had finished his shooting, Ariana escorted him back to their hotel.
Ariana was exhausted from a long day of work and looked forward to a comfortable rest before taking
Tyler out for dinner. But when she arrived, she was met with an unexpected problem.
“What? Are you serious? We can only stay in a special room with the cheapest price?”
Ariana’s expression twisted into one of frustration and disbelief as she looked at the hotel manager.
How could they have made such an error?
The manager tried to explain, “Miss Edwards, I’m sorry, but we checked the reservation information,
and you booked two special rooms on the first floor.”
Ariana shook her head in frustration. “That doesn’t make sense. The rooms were booked by the crew,
and we should be entitled to the same accommodations as everyone else. Why are we being
discriminated against?”
Francis walked by and chimed in with a sarcastic tone, “Because there are no more standard rooms,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmand you’re the newest members of the crew. You have to make do with the special rooms. Don’t put the
hotel manager in a tough spot.”
Ariana rolled her eyes in response. “Fine, I’ll pay for it myself then.”
The hotel manager quickly interjected, “I’m sorry, Miss Edwards, but all the standard rooms are already
occupied. The only available room is the presidential suite on the top floor.”
The hotel manager scanned Ariana from top to bottom with a critical eye.
Since she had been outside all day, she was dressed in comfortable clothing without any designer
brands, and so the manager classified her as someone who couldn’t afford the luxurious presidential
suite.
