Pearl raised her head and objected, "Richard, | won't apologize to her today. If you insist on getting involved, don't blme for forgetting about our

past."

Richard snorted, his tone ambiguous. "Do we even have a past to hold onto?"

Pearl couldn't help but chuckle. It was evident that Richard had moved on and no longer cared about their history.

"It's okay, Rick. I'll let it go. My father always taughtto be kind and gentle. Let's forget about this.” Winona had enjoyed the heated exchange, but

she now played the role of a peacemaker. "My cheek hurts terribly right now. Could you accompanyto the hospital?"

She subtly made it seem like Pearl was being unreasonable, causing the latter to scoff. "Funny coincidence! My dad always taughtto stand up for

myself when treated unfairly.”

This left Winona in a tricky situation. It seemed she wouldn't back down without getting what she wanted.

After a brief pause, she leaned against Richard's shoulder and spoke softly, "Rick, I'll let it go... But she's quite fierce. I'm scared."

Richard cast an icy, stern glance around before addressing the director in a cold tone. "Waldorf Enterprises will withdraw its investment from this film."

With that, he took Winona's hand and left.

Pearl watched them leave in silence for a long moment. If Waldorf Enterprises pulled their funding from the film, it meant Winona would no longer

play the second female lead.

The director's expression instantly turned grim. They would lose the 15 million investment and the second female lead.

"What do we do now? This is terrible!" The director was deeply concerned, as he had never anticipated such a turn of events. "Miss Pearl, why did

you let this escalate like that?" Finding a new investor midway through production would be a daunting task.

"I'l cover the 15 million," Pearl declared confidently. She stepped forward assertively, garnering the attention of everyone present.

"You're saying you want to invest in the film?" The director found this hard to believe.

Esther tugged at Pearl's clothes, concerned. "Pearl, think this through. Don't make impulsive decisions in the heat of the moment."

Pearl had never done something like this before in Esther's memory. She wondered if Pearl was acting out of anger because of Richard and Winona's

provocation.

"It won't be a loss to invest in this film," Pearl assured her. She had reviewed the script earlier and believed that if they executed it well, the film could

beca hit.

The director's eyes lit up. "Really?"

"Yes, but | need a favor from you," Pearl answered.

The director smacked his chest. "Don't worry. I'll help you since you've given us such great help. Anything you want."

Pearl looked around and noticed a few good-looking people among the extras. When they met her gaze timidly, she knew they were interested.

"l want to select a few extras to becstreamers for my company.”

Pearl was confident that with her resources, she could easily propel someone to fame, even if it meant investing 15 million dollars.

All of the extras looked at Pearl enthusiastically when they heard of this incredible opportunity.
