Chapter 420

 Valerie wanted to give him a thumbs–up for what he said.

 “Don’t you know I do my own voice acting for this film? Even Mr. Grant approved it. Aren’t you afraid of offending him? Angel sneered.

 However, Arthur smiled even more gently. “Miss Santos, we’ve considered that. That’s why we consulted Mr. Grant. He said he didn’t mind and even suggested that a different voice might add more spark. Miss Santos, if you have any objections, perhaps you should ask Mr. Grant yourself?” Arthur managed to deflect responsibility perfectly.

 Angel was not happy. She couldn’t control Valerie, but the president of Star Xarous Group also started to disregard her.

 This film was her first big production since returning to the country, and she did her own voice acting to prove she wasn’t just a pretty face.

 Now, everyone wanted Valerie to dub her voice, which felt like a p in the face. Angel was confident in her acting skills, but seeing Valerie’s mocking expression made her feel like the whole world was against hert

 She thought. ‘Should I call Matthew?‘

 Angel felt a sudden jolt. She had been trying to suppress Valerie in this industry, not wanting Matthew to see Valerie’s shining moments or help her rise to fame. Calling Matthew to exin the situation would only push Valerie into his favor.

 While Angel hesitated, Valerie stood up with a smile and extended her hand “Miss Santos, I look forward to working with you. I promise not to disappoint everyone…

 Valerie was exuding confidence,pletely unlike her previous timid self. Angel found herself at a loss for words!

 The president of Star Xarous Group watched the scene with amusement. “We look forward to Miss Santos and Miss Warren making “Once Upon A Time a great sess!”

 With so many eyes on her, Angel had already humiliated herself enough today. She reluctantly extended her hand toward Valerie

 But as she got closer, she couldn’t resist gritting her teeth and muttering, “Valerie, you’re only getting this role because of me. Even if you’re dubbing my voice, you’ll always be behind the scenes, never in the spotlight.”

 Valerie merely smiled faintly, unfazed by the provocation.

 Valerie said. “Oht Well, I’m certainly earning this paycheck. Miss Santos, I hope you give your best effort too. It would be unfortunate if the final cutes out and people say your acting was so bad it had to be saved by the voice acting.

 “You…!” Angel cursed inwardly. How dare she mock my acting skills?

 Angel wanted to retort, but at that moment her phone buzzed. It was a message from Louis, telling her to join the set immediately and not waste

 any more time.

 She closed her phone. Then, Louis sent another message to her. It said: [Get to the set immediately, or I’ll send bodyguards to drag you out!] Angel felt both anxious and fearful. Louis was in charge of most things in the Santos family now. If he got upset and told her parents about her recent actions, she’d be in serious trouble. Angel had no choice but to re menacingly at Valerie. “Just you waitr

 Valerie shrugged indifferently, “Sure, Ill wait What’s the big deal?”

 Angel stomped off in her high heels, her back radiating anger and frustration despite the watching crowd. Valerie watched her leave and smiled slowly.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

 She thought, “Is that all Angel could handle?

 This was only the first step of her counterattack. Angel had schemed against her many times, and she had endured it. But now, even a minor retaliation was too much for Angel. It seemed the superstar’s endurance wasn’t as strong as expected.

 Arthur from Star Xarous Group extended his hand warmly. “Miss Warren, I look forward to our coboration.”

 Angel had always dominated at Star Xarous Group. Sering someone who could finally put her in her ce was refreshing. Although Arthur didn’t know Valerie’s background, the fact that Louis had personally introduced her meant she wasn’t to be underestimated.

 “Likewise, Valene replied with a poised smile.

 Meanwhile, in the parking lot, Angel was fuming. Unable to calm down, she grabbed her manager, Mike. Think of a way to ruin that reputation!”

 Mike was shocked. “But, that’s risky. What if Mr. Santos finds out…!

 Seeing Angel’s determined and furious gaze, he quickly surrendered. “Fine, I’ll think of something. But you need to get on set. Mr. Santos is right. This film was supposed to start shooting two days ago, but your incident caused dys. If this continues, it will generate negative publicity

 Angel eximed, “Shut up!”

 The mention of it only fueled Angel’s anger. The thought of all her hard work k in the film being overshadowed by Valerie’s voice acting made her furious.

 The only solution seemed to be delivering a performance so wless that no one could fault it. That way, people would think that the quality of the film had nothing to do with the dubbing.

 However, on second thought, Mike’s tearn was adept at manipting public opinion. There was no need to fear a mere Valerie. Once the movie was released, she would have plenty of time to deal with Valerie. For now, she could give Valerie a little taste of what was toe.

 With Louis’s endorsement and Matthew’s approval, Valerie’s signing process went smoothly.

 Payne, the mentor who had initially brought Valerie to the meeting, was delighted to see her take on the role. Although filming hadn’t started yet. Star Xarous Group provided Valerie with parts of the script and dialogue to familiarize herself with. Understanding the context would help her better capture the emotional nuances in her voice acting

 After handling all these details, Valerie left Star Xarous Group with the contract. As she stepped out, her phone buzzed with a news notification The title was “Heartless. The true face of Eternal Melody exposed.”

 Eiernal Melody was her voice–acting ID. She clicked on the link and found a nderous article. In falsely used her of being a homewrecker with a maniptive and ruthless nature. It imed she not only stole men but also roles, portraying her as an untalented troublemaker.

 Valerie’s first reaction was amusement. She wondered when she had be so famous.

 Then, Valerie was certain that this was Angels doing. However, Angel seemed to be overestimating her. She was just a humble voice actress. This article, instead of tarnishing her reputation, actually boosted her visibility.

 Since Angel had done her such a “favor, it would be impolite not to return it Valerie’s thoughts whirred, and she took out her phone.

 Using a soft, sweet voice she rarely employed, she said. “Matthew, it’s me. I need to talk to you about something. Someone’s ndering me online. Could you help me find out what’s going on?”

 Angel had handed her a perfect opportunity for a counterstrike. It was time for her nun to step in
