Chapter 437 Do Not Mess With Me
Sylvie''s manager, Joyce, was also in the ward.
When she saw the resemnce between Genevieve and Sylvie, a look of surprise instantly crept over
her face.
She was always following Sylvie around, so she knew the resemnce wasn''t obvious when thetter
went makeup free.
After the professional makeup artists had worked their magic on Sylvie, however, there was no doubt
she''d bear a much more striking resemnce to Genevieve.
That said, even with a full face of makeup, Sylvie would still pale inparison to Genevieve,
especially now that thetter was both her boss and the CEO of Genevieve Orsi Productions.
“Oh, it wasn''t Sylvie''s fault,” Joyce hastily exined after catching the hint in Sylvie''s nce. “The
event organizer didn''t provide enough security guards, so they couldn''t stop the fans from storming up
the stage.”
The next second, Joyce rolled up Sylvie''s pant leg, revealing the big, nasty bruise on her fair skin.
“Look how badly she fell. Her calf is all bruised. The doctor said Sylvie will need to stay in the hospital
for at least two weeks, which means we''ll have to put her work on hold...”
Genevieve winced at the gnarly leg bruise and said sympathetically, “Yes, the injury sure looks bad.
Have a good rest, then. I''ll let the assistant manager know about it.”
“By the way, Ms. Rachford, I wanted to ask you something...” Joyce replied. “As you know, Sylvie has
been starring in movies since she joined the entertainment industry, and hertest works earned her
critical acim. You may not be aware of this, but there''s a big difference between doing movies and
TV dramas. Don''t you think letting her act in a drama would be belittling her?”
Genevieve turned to the woman on the hospital bed and smiled. “Sylvie, can''t you speak for yourself?
Why must everything go through someone else?”
“But I''m her manager—”
s, before Joyce could finish her words, Genevieve interrupted coldly, “You''re one of the managers
working for ourpany. She isn''t the only artist you have, is she?”
Terrified, Joyce ducked her head and said nothing more.
With that, Genevieve turned her attention back to Sylvie. “Are you unhappy with my arrangement? Do
you not want to be in ourpany''s TV drama? Is that it?”
Sylvie pursed her lips and gently exined, “The pace of making a movie is faster than a TV drama, so
I''m just worried I might not be used to thetter and mess things up. Also, I received a new movie script
a few days back. Filming for it starts next week.”
Genevieve smiled and leaned over. “In other words, you think shooting a TV series is far too tiring, and
you don''t want to take it up. If that''s the case, you can terminate your contract with us. It''s fine by me.”
Before anyone could reply, Genevieve leaned into Sylvie''s ear and whispered, “Sylvie sen, you
really are a brilliant actress. Your acting chops are way better than the youngdy I met a few days
ago. Next time, though, remember to fall even harder. Better yet, injure your face, so it''d be easier to
incite your fans.”
Sylvie narrowed her eyes. “Ms. Rachford, I don''t know what you''re talking about.”
“That''s okay,” Genevieve replied with a smirk. “All you need to know is that I''m your boss, and it won''t
be wise to mess with me. You can either do as I say or terminate your contract and scram.”
After saying that, Genevieve stood up to straighten her jacket and nced at Joyce.
“Report back to the office tomorrow morning. There are other assignments for you. As for Sylvie, we''ll
find another manager for her.”
Needless to say, Joyce was shocked. “But I''ve been working with Sylvie for four years. She won''t be
used to a new manager...”
“Then we''ll give her time to get used to it. Likewise, if you''re unhappy with the arrangement, you''re free
to quit anytime,” Genevieve replied. Even though her smile was gentle, the look in her eyes was the
total opposite.
“Have a good rest, Sylvie,” she added before striding out of the ward.

Just as Genevieve was making her way to the elevator, the doors suddenly opened, and a tall figure
walked out.
As soon as she saw the man, her gaze darkened.
