Chapter 544
But Brielle was no longer the director, and it had been her who had initially promoted Sydney. Until the
new director arrived, Sydney was the most influential person in the department.
The new director was none other than Spencer, who was rumored to be canoodling with Sydney.
Naturally, he wouldn’t fire his own me.
Brielle felt a knot of disgust in her stomach, but she had to hurry over to Ster Stage Entertainment to
check on the situation. So, after offering some brief words offort to her colleagues, she prepared to
leave the office.
Just then, Sydney returned, her previous timidity and respect toward Brielle reced with .
“Brielle, I heard you got canned because you socked Mr. Dorsey. How could you be so dumb? You
didn’t seriously think that just because Mr. Dorsey fancied you, you could get away with murder, did
you?”
Sydney hadpletely changed her tune, and remembering the humiliation she suffered at the hands
of Alivia, she felt sick. Alivia had been harsh because of Brielle, so naturally, Sydney directed her anger
at Brielle.
“Brielle, have you finished handing over yourst project? If so, please make yourself scarce. We’ve
got work to do here, and there’s no time to entertain the likes of you.” She emphasized the words “the
likes of you” with a sneer and turned toward her office.
Brielle noticed that Sydney wasn’t at her usual workstation but in the director’s office instead. Her
brows furrowed, her gazending on Sydney’s back.
Feeling Brielle’s stare, Sydney’s posture grew even more triumphant. “You know, I should thank you for
promoting me. Little did you know, Mr. Dorsey has been pursuing me. If you wouldn’t mind, tell Mr.
Dorsey to stop hounding me. And all those times he bothered you were only because you looked a bit
like me. Don’t go getting any wild ideas.”
Sydney wasn’t afraid of Brielle anymore
after all, Brielle was no longer in charge.
Brielle couldn’t help butugh. “You badmouth me, yet you imitate me. Don’t you find yourself
contradictory? Deep down, you must really want to be me.” Her tone was indifferent as she passed a
few documents to a colleague.
Sydney was stung by the remark, her face darkening. It was one thing to imitate someone’s style, quite
another to have it pointed out so bluntly, and it felt like a blow to her pride. Her fists clenched, her
breath quivering. Compared to Brielle’s calm demeanor, she felt utterly defeated.
A cold look passed through Sydney’s eyes, and she thought of the possibility that Brielle might still be
ensnaring the CEO. It made her stomach churn.

But it didn’t matter. As long as she kept wearing these clothes and made frequent visits to the CEO’s
side, Max would soon forget Brielle and fall for her. After all, Brielle wouldn’t be at Dorsey International
anymore, and a fleeting fancy would fade with distance.

Her lips curled into a smirk. “Don’t get toofortable, Brielle. You’ll have your share of
tears.”
Brielle watched Sydney’s overconfident departure and just chuckled to herself. “Every time someone
tells me that, they end up being the one with bad luck.”
“You!” Sydney couldn’t outwit Brielle with words. Fuming, she stormed into her office and mmed the
door shut.
Shaking her head with a wry smile, Brielle finished up her paperwork and left Dorsey International. She
didn’t bother to plead her case to Max or ask him to fire Sydney.
However, as she was getting into her car, she ran into Sydney’s boyfriend – the same one from before,
dressed simply and waiting outside the building. He was probably there for Sydney, his lovestruck
expression betraying no knowledge of her behind–the–scenes machinations.
Brielle had no interest in meddling in other people’s dramas. She started her car and set the navigation
for Ster Stage Entertainment.
The entertainmentpany was a good hour’s drive from Dorsey International and equally distant
from Premier Pce.
Michael’s decision to ce her at Ster Stage Entertainment was clearly a strategic move. If she
focused her energy on this newpany, meetings with Max would inevitably dwindle.
On her drive over, Ster Stage Entertainment had already been notified of their iing new director.
However, the atmosphere among the staffcked any sign of wee. Changing directors was a
regr urrence, and the previous one, Ryan, had colluded with the higher–ups to exploit the talent
even more. So the news of a new director only made the young employees more scared, fearing
someone worse than Ryan might arrive.
A boy in a baseball cap stood in front of a marble table while a portly man in his fifties sat in the office
chair.
The young man standing had a clean, refreshing aura, like a spring in a mountain brook. Even those
ustomed to beauty couldn’t help but be drawn to his presence.
