Chapter 824


    Taking on a ghastly expression, Director Wall mumbled servilely, “I’ll get him right away.”


    He turned around to make the phone call, not knowing how he should bring this up to Michael.

    At the moment, ‘The National Treasury Action’ desperately needed some eye-catching elements. If an A-


    list celebrity appeared in the show, it would instantly boost the poprity of the show and the director


    would not have to worry about the box office performance.


    It was a daunting task to get an A-list celebrity onboard. Nevertheless, Faye had taken the initiative to


    request for a cameo role in the show, and her only condition was to have Taylor Murray y the


    supporting role.


    Obviously, Faye’s intention was to flirt with Taylor!


    Years back, she rode on the wave of Taylor’s fame. To attract his attention, she even underwent stic


    surgery to look exactly like her sister, Sophia, who was Taylor’s wife.


    However, times had changed and they were in totally opposite states now—the formerly infamous best


    actor had be an obsolete artist while the actress who was once insignificant had be an A-list


    celebrity.


    That was the reality of showbiz, where people toadied the superiors and trampled over the inferior ones.


    One could do whatever he wanted toward others when he was highly sought-after. Conversely, he could


    only be at the disposal of others when his poprity faded.


    Back then, Faye was the one begging favors from Taylor, but now, he would be the one begging favors


    from Faye!


    Meanwhile, Carmen was frightened by the sudden smashing of the mirror. With tears welled up in her


    eyes, she pouted her lips.


    Sophia, too, was startled at the scene, and she quickly cuddled Carmen.


    Forget about it, we should pull out. Showbiz is f*cking toxic. And poor Michael, he has been dealing with


    these underlying rules all this while.


    Meanwhile, Cooper pulled a long face.


    Indeed, showbiz was a corrupted industry.


    Director Wall made a call to Michael, who was busy dealing with issues regarding the release of the


    movie at that moment. Actually, the entire film had already been shot, but a few more scenes of Carmen


    were addedter on, so it would be ready for release as soon as her shots werepleted.


    “Hi, Director Wall, how’s Carmen doing?”


    The director stammered, “Uhmm… I…”


    Thinking that Carmen was not cooperative, Michael said, “No worries, I’ming over soon.”


    He thought Carmen had thrown a tantrum because after all, she was just a three-year-old and was very


    attached to her father. Given that this was only the second scene and he was not around, it was normal


    that Carmen would feel uneasy, so he decided he should still go over to guide her.


    After hanging up the call, Director Wall told Faye in a servile manner, “Miss Faye, Taylor will be here


    soon.”


    ted, Faye waited arrogantly.


    She was wondering how Taylor would react upon seeing her after all these years.


    She had be an A-list superstar in Cethos whereas Taylor was merely an obsolete actor who had


    been forgotten by people after retiring from the screen three years ago. He had to depend on Faye’s


    favor if he desired to re-establish his poprity.


    In fact, she would not even be bothered about Taylor if it wasn’t because she could not reconcile herself


    to her failure to surpass him in the past.


    She might still help him if he pleased her.


    “Taylor is just an obsolete actor. How dare he be this arrogant? Is he still reminiscing about his good old


    days?”


    “Miss Faye is the Queen of Cethos’ showbiz these days.”


    All kinds of ttering came from her assistants as they gave her a massage and touched up her makeup.


    Taking selfies, Faye was extremely pleased by the adtion from them.


    Meanwhile, Sophia frowned as she looked at the scene. She knew that given Michael’s status, he would


    not need to be at these people’s disposal if he really wanted to make hiseback. She reckoned that it


    was the director who was unconfident about his film’s performance and took it upon himself to invite A-


    list celebrities for cameo appearances.


    Sophia was worried that Carmen would have to deal with these nasty people in the future if she really


    chose to be an actress.


    Carmen, who had good hearing, could instantly hear that they were talking about her father. Pouting her


    lips, she turned to Sophia and asked, “Are they bad-mouthing Daddy?”


    Thinking that kids should be pure and innocent, Sophia did not want Carmen to be exposed to the ugly


    side of the world at this young age. So, she answered, “Not at all! They are not bad-mouthing Daddy.


    We’re not going to film today and we’ll go home with Daddy. He’sing to pick us up soon.”


    Carmen did not want to film with someone who spoke ill of her father either. With a moue, she replied,


    “Okay.”


    Following that, Sophia put Carmen down and went to the director to talk about the shooting.


    Meanwhile, Cooper took Carmen’s hand as he led her to admire the Imperial Jade Seal, which was


    disyed in a bulletproof ss case.


    Looking at the seal, Cooper was overwhelmed with mixed emotions.


    The Mitchell Family had participated in the search for this seal, but they were not featured in the movie


    as they did not contribute greatly. In addition, it was difficult to get approval for their contribution to be


    featured in the film.


    He introduced the seal to Carmen. “Carmen, this is the national treasure of Cethos. It’s invaluable!”


    At the same time, the entire crew was waiting for Faye to start shooting. However, none of them dared to


    comin because everyone would suffer if she was displeased. After all, she was the main celebrity


    there.


    All of a sudden, one of Faye’s assistants squealed with surprise. “Look, Miss Faye! Isn’t that the lolita


    who became popr on the Inte recently?”


    Putting down her phone, Faye nced toward the lolita who was looking up to admire the Imperial Jade


    Seal.


    Indeed, she was the lolita who became viral on the Inte recently!


    This toddler was just some random kid, but she had be extremely popr through a short video. It


    was now the era of cute toddlers—in the past, attractive appearances were a must for celebrities to


    be popr but nowadays, cute toddlers had be the key.


    Faye herself did not have a child, and she was envious of the obsolete actors who had regained their


    poprity through their adorable children in ‘Where Are We Going, Dad?’. Because of that, she invested


    in producing a simr show—‘Where Are We Going, Sis?’, of which she was the star. Now that the first


    season had finished airing, they were seeking actresses and cute kids to participate in the second


    season. While there were plenty of professional actresses out there, it was an arduous task to seek


    adorable children. In fact, besides Faye, many otherpanies were also seeking out celebrities’


    children to participate in reality shows.


    Now that this lolita had be famous, many productionpanies must want to get her on board for


    reality shows. How lucky Faye was to bump into her!


    She secretly observed the lolita who was not too far away from her. This girl was even cuter than she


    was in the video with her sweet baby voice. Furthermore, she was now recognized and had fans all


    around the world, so she would be the perfect candidate to cast in the reality show.


    Faye’s eyes lit up as she stood up and walked toward Carmen.


    “Honey, didn’t you ask for my autograph just now? I can give it to you.”


    Disying her professional acting skills, Faye put on a friendly smile and intended to coax Carmen.


    Lifting up her head to look at Faye, Carmen was frightened and immediately hid behind Cooper as she


    could still remember Faye’s vicious appearance when she smashed the mirror.


    With her tiny hand holding onto Cooper’s sleeve, she purred, “Grandpa, I’m afraid…”


    Carrying Carmen in his arms, Cooper stared at Faye, who had unkind intentions, and snapped coldly,


    “Stay away from my grandchild!”


    Meanwhile, Sophia was negotiating with Director Wall. Director Wall was flurried knowing that they


    wanted to leave, and he insisted them to stay on andplete the shooting.


    Just as they were arguing, Sophia noticed Faye walking toward Carmen. Worriedly, she strided over.


    “Hey, what are you doing?”


    Faye nced at Cooper and Carmen, then Sophia, who had her mask on. Suddenly, she came to a


    realization about their backgrounds.


    “So, you’re Scarlett Mitchell!”
