Sheena had been feeling troubled for the past few days, and Rosalie had just added fuel to the fire by getting herself into trouble.
Not long after, Rosalie was dragged out of the set crying.
As the room finally quieted, Sheena sat by Phoebe’s sickbed, diligently peeling an apple for
her.
Watching her intently, Phoebe smiled and said, “It’s been many years since west met, and you''ve changed a lot! You were so
cool just now. I’m really impressed.”
“You can be like this too.”
Phoebe’s gaze dimmed. “No, I’m different. I’m not like all the other trainees here. They either have powerfulpanies or
wealthy family backgrounds, but | only have myself.” Sheena put down the apple and held Phoebe’s hand,forting her, “You
managed to stand out among a hundred trainees, step by step, reaching the finals. Don’t you think you’re amazing?”
“But I’m only in fifteenth ce. | can’t debut. Rosalie told me majorpanies have already reserved the debut spots through
bribery. | don’t stand a chance.”Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Sheena chuckled.
This was herpany and her program. She had specifically informed her team not to ept bribes for reserved spots.
Phoebe was also good-looking. Although not a typical stunning type at first nce, she had a charm that grew on you. She was
a cute and innocent girl. With this appearance and talent, Phoebe could have a longsting career in the entertainment industry.
Whether for personal orpany interests, Sheena was determined to support Phoebe.
“Don’t worry. No one can bribe their way to debut in my program. As long as you work hard, you''ll have a chance. And even if
you don’t debut this time, I''ll make sure you sign a contract with Angle Group and be an A-list artist.”
Tears glistened in Phoebe’s eyes. In disbelief, she bit her lip to stop the tears from falling. Sheena gently patted her head. “This
time, go all out toward your goal.”
Phoebe was moved and embraced Sheena tightly. “Thank you, Sheena. Even though you haven''t told me who you are, | know
you''re an incredible girl.”
“If any trainees bully you again, stand up to them! The more you show weakness, the more. they''ll take advantage of it. Only
when you stand up will they fear you. Don’t be afraid. I’ve got your back from now on!”
Holding her close, Phoebe was fueled with determination.
When Sheena left, Phoebe was cornered in the restroom by Ellie and two of herckeys that same evening as she got out of the
medical room. Ellie had returned to the set upon learning
2/2
about Rosalie’s sudden disqualification. She intended to confront Phoebe and make sure she would not dare toin again.
As it was Thanksgiving, no cameras were filming on the set, especially in ces like the restroom, where surveince was
impossible.
Phoebe was forced into a corner, shivering in fear. Suddenly, Sheena’s words from earlier echoed in her mind. She gritted her
teeth, grabbed a dirty mop from the corner, and taunted the three.
“Ellie, let me make it clear. | used to let you have your way, but from now on, don’t you dare touch me again!”
“Sure! Let’s y a game and see if you can handle three people alone!”
The four girls quieldy engaged in a brawl, and screams echoed in the restroom as chaos unfolded.
Sheena found out about the incident the next morning.
Ellie, battered and bruised, threatened to sue Phoebe for assault.
Wendy, standing nearby,mented, “They had the numbers yet still lost against Phoebe alone. Not only that, but they’re also
the first to cry foul.”
Sheena also thought it was ridiculous andughed. “Handle this matter for me. Whether Ellie gets awyer or tries anything else,
we''ll face it head-on, supporting Phoebe all the way.”
“No problem, Ms. Sheena!”
While Sheena was busy with work for the past few days, someone else was not idle.
Sheena had not returned to Ocean Avenue for three consecutive days. Elijah, for some reason, felt uneasy, with images of
Sheena and Howard being alone together shing in his mind whenever he closed his eyes.
