    Ste could not help butugh when she heard what Estelle had said. ‘No wonder they call her Tiger. It


    seems like she’s ready to bite at any moment,’ she thought.


    Although Ste had failed to uncover the identity of the female lead, she decided to stay and rehearse


    lines with Leighton.

    Despite not attending acting school, Leighton’s talent and genuine passion for the art shone through. He


    would throw himself into his roles every time he performed his scenes.


    Ste would offer him a few pointers even though she felt somewhat unqualified to be an acting coach.


    At the same time, Leighton was a fast learner. He would listen to Ste’s suggestions and implement


    them into his performance.


    Estelle was left in awe after watching them rehearse one of the scenes. “With a bit more effort, you might


    even snag an award this year,” she said as she saw Leighton’s potential in acting.


    He had risen to fame through an idol talent show.


    Considering the current state of the entertainment industry in Hustuabourg, the prospects of bing a


    sessful singer or dancer were limited. So, Leighton had been actively pursuing roles in idol dramas in


    hopes of switching careers.


    However, directors often look for young actors when ites to this genre of films. Since there was no


    way Leighton could secure a spot in idol shows forever, Estelle had been focusing on getting him roles in


    more serious dramas and movies starting this year.


    While the shows Leighton acted in often achieved high ratings, his acting skills were still a work in


    progress. Nevertheless, Estelle believed he could bridge the gap and sessfully transition into the field


    after watching his rehearsal.


    As Ste and Leighton were about to continue rehearsing, they heard amotion outside. It turned out


    that Stuart had called for everyone to gather.


    Despite having conducted a camera test earlier, Stuart believed it was an inauspicious day for filming.


    Thus, he had arranged for a priest to perform a ritual to ward off bad luck. Everyone was to participate in


    the ceremony to bring good fortune to the production.


    Soon, the three people previously in the dressing room heard a lively buzz from behind them. The female


    lead had arrived. The cheers and apuse indicated her considerable poprity.


    Leighton was not interested in greeting her, but Ste was curious. She turned around and was taken


    aback upon seeing the person surrounded by the crowd.


    “I can’t believe it’s her.”


    “Who is it?” Leighton followed Ste’s gaze to see who she was talking about. He then muttered a curse


    under his


    breath, ready to leave.


    Stuart seemed to have anticipated Leighton’s reaction and quickly stopped him, “Don’t make a scene.


    You’ve already signed the contract.”


    “I can pay you the fee for breaching the contract if you want, ” Leighton said with a cold face before


    removing his tie and heading toward the exit.


    Ste had not quite grasped the situation when a female voice said, “Two yearster, and you’re still as


    impulsive as ever.”


    Leighton froze in his tracks. He looked at the woman with a piercing gaze and sneered, “Two yearster,


    and your attitude is still as insufferable as ever, Nicole Aspen.”


    Hearing that, Nicole smiled and said, “I can’t help it when it’s my signature style, just like how you have a


    habit of talking back.”


    Ste’s eyes darted between the two actors as she processed the information. ‘So… these two know


    each other…? It appears they have some unresolved issues, given Leighton’s threat to withdraw from


    the project upon seeing her.’


    ‘Had they worked together before?’ Ste asked herself. She regretted not paying more attention to the


    actors’ previous works and appearances, feeling frustrated for being out of the loop.


    Leighton’s expression turned sour when he heard what Nicole uttered next. “Mr. Winfield, please find a


    recement for my role. I’ll cover the fees for the breach of contract,” she said and turned to leave.


    Ste was about to stop Nicole when she said, “Mr. Winfield, I know an actor with a great appearance


    and exceptional acting skills. He’s a perfect fit for the role. Would you consider allowing my friend to


    audition since Mr. Hall has acknowledged his inability to handle the job?” asked Nicole.
