Chapter 576

Many young actresses under her command had an affair with Hudson, relying on their

bodies to obtain resources.

She turned a blind eye. It was all part of the game. After all, who in the glittering world of showbiz didn’t

claw their way to the top? Everyone was gunning for the juiciest roles, the

fattest contracts.

But Hudson was playing with fire, making moves on Allison without knowing who was backing her.

Inside the walls of Epic Entertainment, only Patty and Mr. Landry knew about Lucian’s role in Allison’s

life. Kenneth and Hudson were in the dark, probably thinking Allison was just another aspiring actress

ripe for the picking.

Patty saw an opportunity to teach both Hudson and Allison a lesson. Without her protection, Allison

would be bullied, and it could give Hudson a fatal blow at the same time. In terms of seniority, Hudson

might have had an edge, but when it came to skill, Patty didn’t acknowledge his lead. It was high time

Hudson vacated his seat as vice president in favor of her.

She pulled out her private cell and dialed a number. “It’s me, Patty.”

“Patty? I’d recognize your voice anywhere. What’s up?”

“You got the footage?” Patty asked.

There was a chuckle on the other end. “Of course. I’ll send it your way tomorrow. But don’t forget what

you promised…”

“How could I? I’ve already wired you $8 million as a show of good faith. Once I’m VP of Epic

Entertainment, I’ll bump you up to talent agent, managing some of our rising stars. Sound good?”

“Perfect. I’ll hold you to that, Patty. Looking forward to your promotion.”

The next morning found Lucian arriving at the Powell Estate. He fished out his keys and unlocked the

door to find Allison still fast asleep. He made his way to the bedroom, quietly observing her peaceful

features long lashes, delicate skin with a hint of rose, a slight furrow in her brow as if troubled by a

dream.

Her fingers twitched, latching onto Lucian’s hand as he approached. He gently clasped her fingers,

offering a soothing touch. His cool fingertips carried the chill from outside. Allison’s eyes fluttered open.

She had been trapped in a nightmare, sinking in a vast swamp, struggling in vain, when a hand

reached out to save her.

Blinking in disbelief, she saw Lucian. His touch, warm and real, brought her back to the waking world.

“What are you doing here?” she murmured, still half in her dream.

He bent down, planting a soft kiss on her forehead. “You were having a bad dream?”

Her eyes, slightly red-rimmed from sleep, met his. “Yeah, I dreamt that a beast was chasing me, and I

was running for my life. Just as I thought I had escaped, I fell into a swamp. I fought so hard but kept

sinking. I was about to go under when someone grabbed my hand and pulled me out.”

Lucian held her hand tightly. His rough fingers were tenderly stroking her wrist. He wrapped her in his

arms, comforting her, “It’s okay. It was just a nightmare. It’s over now,” he whispered, patting her back

softly.

Allison, still drowsy, closed her eyes and gradually relaxed into his embrace. Her breathing became

even as she fell back to sleep. Lucian held her, keeping a protective hold, aware of the media storm

she’d been facing lately. He looked at the woman who curled up in a safe position in his arms. Her

hands were clutching his arm, and her body was giving a slight shiver as if she was slipping back into a

deep, dark dream.
