Chapter 414
Emily was really going to fire her from the voice cast.
Olivia stood frozen, her mind spinning. When had she ever done anything to upset Emily?
“Emily, I don’t get it
“You don’t have to.” Emily’s face stayed cold, not giving Olivia a chance to say more. “I just don’t like your voice. So I’m getting a new voice actress. That’s all there is to it.”
“You-”
“Ken, take care of this,” Emily said, turning to the assistant director. “Find someone new to redo the lines tomorrow. I’ll pay Olivia whatever she’s owed.”
“Understood.”
Being the lead actress, Emily could get anyone replaced if she wanted. No one was going to argue with her.
She glanced at Olivia, who’d gone paper-white. Seeing her like that made Emily feel a little better. Serves her right for spreading rumors about Charlotte.
“Emily, is there some kind of misunderstanding?” Olivia tried to plead her case. She wasn’t just here for the money. After that piano competition scandal, her reputation was in pieces. Landing a voice role in a soon-to-be hit drama had been her chance to get noticed again, maybe even work her way back into the social scene. Now it was slipping through her fingers.
“A misunderstanding?” Emily let out a cold little laugh. “I don’t care if there is or isn’t. The point is, I don’t like you. And I want you gone.”
“You”
Emily cut her off, her voice sharp and icy. “You can leave on your own, or I can have security send you out.”
Olivia saw the security guards coming and her eyes filled with angry tears. She bit her lip, desperate. “Emily, don’t you want to know what’s going on between Charlotte and Kenneth?”
“No.”
That was it. Olivia had nothing left to bargain with. Just the other day,
Emily had looked so hurt say
Kenneth and Charlotte together. Why was she suddenly acting like none of it mattered?
“Emily, you’ll regret this.”
Emily rolled her eyes. “Not my problem. Gossip always comes back to bite.”
Every word from Emily felt like hitting a pillow-nothing stuck. Olivia was so angry she could barely breathe.
“Miss, please leave,” the guard said.
With everyone staring, Olivia stormed out, humiliated and furious.
Charlotte came out just in time to see Olivia, who looked like she was about to explode from rage. Honestly, all the humor Anthony lacked seemed to have ended up with Andrew and Emily.
Downstairs, Olivia sat fuming on the edge of a planter. She was just about to call someone and vent when two fammar figures walke out of the building. The second she recognized their faces, her phone slipped from her hand and hit the ground.
It was Charlotte and Emily.
Seeing them together was bad enough, but Emily was hooked onto Charlotte’s arm,
the two of them laughing and chatting like best friends.
Olivia’s brows knitted together. She felt nothing but shock. Emily knew about
Charlotte and Kenneth, so why was she being so close to her?
Before Olivia could get up and follow, the two women had already gotten into the same flashy sports car Charlotte slid indirst, and Emily followed with the bags, smiling like she’d just won the lottery.
Why did everyone in the Blair family seem to love Charlotte so much?
