    Chapter 417 Every Minute Counts


    "Mr Wold, please don''t make it difficult for me. We''re gonna shoot another TV y in the middle of the


    year. The second leading actress in the y is quite agreeable. I''ll save the role for you..." the manager


    was still trying to convince him.


    But Theodore just said bluntly, "OK. Then go home and tell your father to transfer the money to our


    ount in the middle of the year..."


    Property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    "OK, OK," the managerpromised instantly, "The second leading actress. You got it."


    Theodore smiled and wondered why he wasted his time talking so much shit since he already knew he


    couldn''t say no to him.


    "Her name is Little Bunny. I''ll tell her to contact you then."


    "OK, I''ll see to it." The manager had no other choice but agreed, "But, Mr Wold, can you please let me


    know sooner if you want any role? The shooting will be in two days, and it''s hard for me to change the


    role for a short time."


    Theodore refused to listen to more of his crap and hung up the phone abruptly. He picked up his phone


    to call Little Bunny, but realized that he hadn''t saved her number.


    Fortunately, she sent him her home address a momentter. Then, he called her and said impatiently,


    "Little Bunny, do the abortion tomorrow. I''ve got the role for you."


    "Thank you, Mr Wold."


    "Don''t y tricks!" Theodore said and hung up the phone.


    She was standing downstairs out of her apartment building at the time. She sent her home address to


    Theodore as soon as she came back.


    She stared at her phone and was lost for words, thinking how cruel and realistic this world was. She''d


    paid lots of effort and prepared for it for a long time. But in the end, she was reced by someone else


    out of the blue. Right now, she got the role back only because Theodore had made a call. It was as


    easy as pie for him. She even didn''t understand why she was still carrying on with it.


    Little Bunny got on the elevator and went back to her apartment. Gabby was talking loudly on the


    phone on the balcony, so Little Bunny heard her as soon as she went into the room.


    Gabby choked with sobs andined, "Didn''t you promise to give me the role? How could you


    change your mind all of a sudden?"


    Little Bunny didn''t know what the other one had told Gabby on the phone.


    "So, I slept with you for nothing? How could you do that to me? You''ve promised me on the bed,


    haven''t you? Now you just get me reced. How dare you!"


    "It''s your problem. I want that role. I only want that role! Settle it!"


    "... How can you do that to me! I''m gonna talk to the media and expose you!"


    "You bastard! How can you do this to me..."


    The other one on the phone seemed to have run out of patience and hung up on her abruptly. Gabby


    was so mad that she smashed her phone on the floor. Of course, she''d seen Little Bunny back in the


    room. She saw Little Bunny staring at her and thundered, "Are you happy now? Are you happy that I


    haven''t got the role as well?"


    Little Bunny just ignored her.


    "Little Bunny! Do you think you''re a pure virgin? Keep pretending!" Gabby freaked out and said.


    Little Bunny simply went back to her room.


    This was the entertainment circle, where there was only interest, but no friends. Her role had been


    taken by her so-called friend. And she''d taken it back in the same way. An eye for an eye. This was the


    real world!


    ...


    In the Cooper Group building, Hannah stretched herself. She''d worked till 8 pm again without noticing


    the clock.


    She made an internal call, "Rose,e in."


    "Yes, Ms Hannah."


    Rose pushed the door open and came in.


    "Ms Hannah, you sent for me?" Rose asked respectfully.


    "These are the candidates for tomorrow''s interview. It''ll start at 10 am. Take a look at it. Come to the


    interview hall with me tomorrow."


    "OK. Ms Hannah."


    "I gotta go. Don''t work toote."


    "OK." Rose nodded her head.


    Hannah picked up her handbag and turned to Jimmy, "I''m off duty, Jimmy."


    Then Jimmy left the office with her. They got off the elevator and walked towards the gate of the


    building. Hannah paused her steps a little, feeling something was off tonight since there were coloured


    Somehow, she smelled the rat but just didn''t give it much thought. So, she left with Jimmy after


    throwing her eyes at the colourednterns.


    Someone popped out from the darkness while she took two steps away, "Mrs Wells, surprise!"


    It''d scared the hell out of Hannah when he popped out in front of her. She fixed her eyes on the man,


    who popped out in front of the heart-shaped colourednterns with a bouquet of roses. He was smiling


    so smartly.


    "Don''t you miss me?" Oscar raised his eyebrows, seeing Hannah freaking out.


    Hannah took a deep breath andined, "Dare you to scare me like that again! You''ll have seen


    me in hell!"


    Oscar smiled brightly again.


    "I wanna surprise you." He said.


    Damn it. What a childish guy!


    "Don''t you like it?" Oscar gave her the red roses.


    Hannah looked at the red roses and believed no woman could say no to flowers. Then she took over


    the roses from him and answered, "Yeah."


    After all, she didn''t want to be a bummer.


    "I''m happy to hear that." Oscar was in a good mood. He held Hannah''s shoulder and asked, "Did you


    have dinner?"


    "Didn''t you?"


    "You did?" Oscar asked her back.


    "I told the office canteen to bring me dinner at 6 pm every day."


    She used to wait for Charles to get off work ande home to have dinner with her, and as a result,


    she always hadte dinners. As time passed, she''d got a very serious tummy bug. Of course, she


    wouldn''t make the same mistake in this life. So, she ate on time when it was mealtime.


    Oscar wasn''t satisfied with her answer.


    "I had no idea you were back. Why didn''t you tell me in advance?" Hannahined.


    "You wouldn''t be surprised then, right? Just the same as you came to visit me in River Townst time,


    and I was very happy."


    Sometimes, Hannah thought Oscar was still a childish big boy.


    "Let''s have dinner together. It''ste. I''m a little hungry now."


    "OK." Oscar agreed happily. He didn''t care whether Hannah was just saying it out of courtesy. He was


    good at saving himself from embarrassment.


    They got in Jimmy''s car and went to a fancy restaurant nearby.


    "Oscar, take your time." Hannah watched him pigging out and said, "Eating too fast isn''t good for your


    stomach."


    Saying it, she helped wipe his mouth with a napkin.


    Wasn''t he always a fine gentleman? What was wrong with him tonight?


    Oscar came closer to Hannah and whispered in her ear, "Every minute counts."


    Hannah frowned and got puzzled.


    "You''ll know itter." Oscar smiled meaningfully.


    And, she seemed to have got it.


    "I''ve got only two days off." Oscar said.
