Chapter 1045
“I just want a wedding ceremony.” Hylda nced at her and said nonchntly, “You better keep your
guard up. Stop going shopping and having high tea with those rich girls all the time.”
Sophia still could not process what happened. She only nodded after hearing what Hylda told her. “I got
it, mom.”
Albert left not long after he hung up. Xenia quickly told Ste about the information she had gathered
earlier.
Ste frowned and fell into her thoughts.
She was still trying to figure out what Hylda’s n was when she received a text message from the
production team of The Pce, telling her that World Peace’s premiere had been rescheduled. The two
dramas were supposed to be aired a day apart. However, both premieres fell on the same date at the
exact same time, which was the prime-time slot of 8 PM.
The production team of World Peace had cut off the ending of another drama just to secure the slot
and premiere World Peace on the same day as The Pce.
It was a despicable move as the ratings of the premiere were very crucial to the production. It could
directly affect future investments, online exposure, and public attention.
The original premiere dates of these two shows were already very close to each other, yet World Peace
decided to reschedule it to the exact same day. It was very obvious that they were simply trying to
overshadow The Pce.
World Peace was adapted from a controversialic, and it had gained a lot of traction before it was
even aired. The production team was known for not prioritizing quality in their work. They only wanted
to take advantage of the hype and create a money tree.
Even though The Pce had been very low-key in its marketing campaign, Daniel’s reputation was just
too good. Everyone knew that every drama he directed would be worth watching.
If The Pce were to be aired first, audiences who watched it would not be able to stand a money-
grabbing drama like World Peace. So, they had to be aired on the same day to overshadow The
Pce and secure a share of the viewership.
By doing so, even if some people realized that The Pce was a better drama than World Peace, it
would not matter anymore because the show had already ended and made enough money forthem.
Nobody would care anymore after that.
Then, The Pce would be a drama with good reviews but no viewership.
That was the dark side of the film and television industry.
A coworker shared the news of World Peace rescheduling its premiere in the group chat.
And everyone was shocked.
After a few months of hard work, they were met with a cut-throatpetition like this to ruin their
drama. So, all of them were upset.

Daniel sent a publicity temte in the group chat and tagged Ste. [ SteJewell, why haven’t you
uploaded any of our promotional posts yet?]
Ste froze.
[I forgot to.]
Daniel urged her. [Hurry up and post it now. You’re the only person who hasn’t done it.]
Ste edited the temte and uploaded it on Facebook.
Then, she thought for a while and decided to call Daniel.
As soon as the call was connected, the sound of people chattering and ying drinking games came
from the other side of the phone.
Ste softly said, ‘Mr. Wood, are you drowning your sorrows before the war has even started?”
The edge of Daniel’s mouth twitched. “Shut up, you jinx! I’m at my friends’ baby shower party.”
“Oh.” Ste then added, “I’m impressed. How could you still have the mood to attend a party when the
premiere is on tomorrow night?”
Daniel replied nonchntly, “Have you gone to school and taken an exam? Have you ever seen a top
student studying the day before the exam?”
Ste paused. Then, she said slowly, “Well, a low-performing student wouldn’t study a day before the
exam either because he wouldn’t understand a thing anyway.”
Her response left Daniel speechless
