Chapter 102


    Early morning.


    Eileen showed up without makeup, phone in one hand, shopping bag in the other. As she made her


    way downstairs, she met her new assistant, Janice.


    “You’re Janice, right?”


    Janice, a short-haired girl, seemed nervous. She bowed respectfully. “Yes, I am Janice. Great meeting


    you, Eileen.”


    “Hi.” Eileen got into the back seat of the business car and casually said, “Let’s go.”


    Janice got into the driver’s seat right away.


    Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    Having been an assistant to other artists before, Janice was aware that many of them could be quite


    picky. So she drove very carefully.


    “Pull over at the corner.””


    After a while, Eileen from the back seat instructed.


    “Sure.” Janice promptly parked the car at the side of the road. Looking back, she asked, “Eileen, do


    you need to buy anything?”


    “Mhm.” Eileen opened the car door, and as she stepped out, she said, “I’m going to get groceries. This


    grocery store is having a promotion on fresh food today. Wait for me here.”


    Janice was taken aback. And while she was still in a daze, her new boss, just got out of the car so


    casually with the shopping bag in hand.


    “Wait a moment, Eileen!”


    Eileen, now standing by the car, pulled out a mask from her pocket.


    After putting on the mask, she saw that Janice had got out of the car too. Frowning, she said, “Stay in


    the car. We can’t park here for too long. If you see a coping, drive off immediately. We can’t afford


    a ticket.”


    Janice was dumbstruck, “I…”


    At that moment, the traffic light changed.


    Eileen hurriedly walked across the pedestrian crosswalk and went to the other side. Janice stood in


    ce, spinning around anxiously. She wanted to follow Eileen, but was worried that leaving the car


    parked like that would indeed earn them a ticket.


    So Janice fretted and waited for a good half hour until Eileen finally appeared. She breathed a sigh of


    relief and noticed that Eileen was carrying arge bag full of things. She immediately went over to offer


    help in carrying it.


    Eileen stepped out of the way, saying, “You won’t be able to carry this.”


    Janice quickly reassured, “I can. I’m pretty strong, Eileen.”


    Eileen gave in and handed over the bag. But when Janice tried to lift it, she almost dropped it.


    Eileen quickly caught it, lifting the bag into the car with one hand, “Told you, you couldn’t carry it.”


    Janice was mortified, her face turning red. Once in the driver’s seat, she couldn’t resist asking, “Eileen,


    what did you buy?”


    “Vegetables.” Eileen checked the contents of the bag, making sure nothing was squashed. “Let’s head


    to the office. We’re runningte.”


    EchoWave Building.


    “Morning, Ophelia!” Eileen greeted obediently.


    Ophelia’s temples were throbbing. “We have a meeting in ten minutes to discuss your next


    assignment.”


    “Okay.” Eileen replied obediently.


    Ten minutester, the Business Department team arrived and everyone gathered in Ophelia’s office for


    the meeting.


    One of the colleagues from the Business Departmentid out a heap of documents, saying with a


    smile, “Eileen’s poprity has really skyrocketed. recently. We need to be cautious about selecting our


    next project.”


    Eileen eyed the pile of documents on the table, leaning over slightly to delicately touch them with her


    fingertips.


    Ophelia was surprised, “So many documents? There weren’t this many before.”


    The colleague from the Business Departmentughed, “Her poprity has been growing every day.


    Even this morning, we received several phone calls asking about her.”


    Ophelia nodded, seeing Eileen still touching the documents, she felt embarrassed. She went over to


    Eileen, pulling her hand away. Eileen ced her hands on her knees, her eyes still fixated on the pile of


    documents.


    The meetingsted over an hour.


    In the end, two magazine photoshoots and one interview were confirmed. As for her next specific work,


    two movies were currently confirmed.


    After the colleagues from the Business Department left, Ophelia held the two film scripts, asking, “One


    is a leading role that you’ve already confirmed, and the other is a supporting role that requires an


    audition. Do you have any thoughts?”


    Most of the scripts for TV dramas she was given were for period dramas or modern dramas, and the


    variety shows were all small-scale. Only the films were slightly more appealing, but most of them were


    clearly destined to be flops just by looking at the titles.


    The only ones worth considering, and that could potentially boost Eileen’s career, were the two film


    scripts in Ophelia’s hand.


    Ophelia said, “Actually, this confirmed leading role is currently our best choice. It’s amercial film


    with mostly male roles and a grand scale. The male actors in the same drama are all big stars.


    Although the romantic scenes are not very delicate, you will have plenty of scenes. The director is


    Louie. Basically, you can hone your acting skills in this film. After the film is released, your poprity


    can be directly elevated to the next level.”


    “However…” Ophelia showed the script in her other hand that required an audition for a supporting


    role.


    “This is a new film by Director Galen. Hisst film, The Alley, gave Egbert and Aurora a chance to be


    nominated for the Oscars.””


    Eileen was a bit upset when she heard this.


    She corrected, “Egbert actually won the award, Aurora was only nominated.”


    “Being nominated is also a big deal.” Ophelia leaned over, pushing the three-page audition script for


    Galen’s film towards Eileen, “Do you have the confidence to give it a shot?”


    Eileen reached out and pressed down on the audition script, snorted, and said, “Alright.”
