Chapter 71


    Selena had been in the business for a while and knew the ropes well, “Astrid, didn’t you sign with


    Starlight Entertainment? Didn’t they assign you an assistant? And who’s your agent?”


    *For someone at my level, an assistant seems like a luxury As for an agent, I don’t have one yet On the


    day she signed the film contract, Starlight Entertainment had her sign an agency agreement. She


    signed it after making sure the terms were okay, but she still didn’t have an agent


    She felt like she was left on the shell.


    But it was fine, she had her own ns.

    “I heard that Dale, the most sought–after agent in the industry, has joined Starlight Entertainment,


    Selena gossiped.


    Astrid yawned, “She’s here to mentor me.”


    At that. Selena burst intoughter, ‘Astrid, don’t kid yourself, Dale has only managed A–listers, the


    cream of the crop. And you…you’re a newbie, why would she mentor you?”


    Astrid found it amusing, but she knew Selena meant no harm, “I’m a newble, and I’m proud of it.”


    “Ha–ha‘ Astrid’s cheeky look cracked Selena up, who then said, “Astrid, mark my words, your role in


    this drama will surely surpass Joana’s. You’re more beautiful and talented. Plus, your character is so


    likablepared to the dull female lead, who does nothing but cry all day. When I read the novel, your


    character was my favorite!”


    “Heh, I’ll take that as a good omen.” Astrid’s eyes were swollen. She leaned back in her chair and


    closed her eyes


    Astrid felt much better after chatting with Selena for a while.


    As they chatted in the dressing room, they didn’t notice Joana eavesdropping from outside the door.


    When the room fell silent, Joana moved to the nearby lounge.


    After the incident with Lydia, Joana was somewhat wary of Astrid.


    Initially, she didn’t care. Butter, many onlinements suggested she was overshadowed by Astrid.


    There’s no denying Astrid was a knockout; even in a business full of beautles like Sandra, she stood


    out. And her acting skills were top–notch, which was a real headache for Joana.


    *Joana, what are you doing here?” A gentle voice asked, Joana turned around to see Fannie Santos,


    dressed in a white dress, walking leisurely towards her.,


    She gave her a small smile, “I’m just about to remove my makeup and rest. Farnle, what brings you


    here?”


    Fannie took off her sunsses and sald with a smile, “I’m here to visit Raleigh.”


    Joana was surprised: Raleigh was the leading man of the drama, but Fannie and Raleigh weren’t that


    close, were they?


    Fannie was always on her high horse. Joana had never heard of her visiting anyone before. Despite


    her doubts, Joana didn’t probe further and changed the subject, “Fannie, why did you leave your


    previous agency?”
