Ada started crying and tried to play the victim. “I’m so sorry, Miss Pearl. I wasn’t thinking straight. I just wanted everyone to help me search for the bracelet, and that’s why I said those things. I wanted people to pay attention to me, but I truly didn’t mean to lie.”

Her lie was outrageous, and her explanation didn’t make her situation any better. If Pearl were to report this to her father, given his short temper, he might lock her up and prevent her from pursuing an acting career.

“Why didn’t you just say that instead of trying to play mind games?” Pearl raised an eyebrow, glaring at Ada. “Do you realize who you’re dealing with? I can dig out every detail about your family history.”

Ada began to cry even harder, and the coldness in Pearl’s eyes made her afraid. “I… I…”

“I might consider allowing you to remain a part of the cast,” Pearl said nonchalantly, blowing on her nails.

“Alright, I’ll confess. I was envious of your beauty and wealth, and the fact that you’re with Richard, so I resorted to such low tactics-cutting up your costume and stealing your clothes. I wanted you to feel humiliated… I’m sorry. I know it’s my fault, and I shouldn’t have done it.” Ada was indeed envious of Pearl. The latter excelled in everything, even her luck, and anyone would feel jealous.

“You knew what you were doing was wrong, but you did it out of jealousy, right?” Pearl questioned.

Ada froze, unsure of how to respond.

“Well, since you’re so envious, I’ll have the director arrange a scene where you’re incredibly jealous of me. How does that sound?” Pearl’s tone was ironic.

Ada shook her head vigorously. “No, Miss Pearl. I won’t do this again!”

“It’s great that you’ve seen the error of your ways,” Pearl said, smiling but with a harsh tone. ” Since you’ve apologized, you should write an apology of about… ten thousand words. Come back when you’re done.”

Ada’s eyes went wide. Ten thousand words? That was pretty much telling her to leave and

never come back.

Seeing the fear in Ada’s eyes, Pearl nodded cheerfully. “Alright, Miss Ada. I hope you stop causing problems. I’ve recorded everything you said just now, so if you ever make me uncomfortable again, I’ll send this to your father and see how he deals with it.” She waved her phone and smiled cheekily.

Ada turned pale. “My dad…”

“Yes, your dad,” Pearl confirmed. “Don’t even think he’ll take your side. It’s a choice between teaching his daughter a lesson or losing the contract with Cerubleu. Any smart person wouldn’t choose the second option.”

she then walked over to the director and smiled. “Shall we continue with the shoot? Delaying this any further will mess up my sleep cycle.”

The director paused, then nodded. “Alright, let’s proceed.” He glanced at Ada and added, Ada, Miss Pearl was offering you advice for your own benefit. If you still wish to continue acting, I will consider rehiring you in the future.”
