Chapter 699
"So why can't I be like you, Steph?"
"I have Sebastian, do you?"Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
"Um. I can use your connections."
"The kind of thing that happened just now is common in the entertainment world. What happened to you is nothing. I've seen it with my own eyes; famous actresses being whisked off to the restroom by those elites. If you dare resist, they'll assault you in public. Are you sure you still want to enter the entertainment industry?"
Zola frowned, "It can't be that exaggerating. Stephanie, even if you don't want me to enter the film industry and become a movie star like you, there's no need to scare me!"
Gillian frowned, "Zola, don't be unreasonable. Steph is just trying to warn you! We've all seen these horrifying situations!"
"But you don't have any background either; and you can still make movies, right?"
Maddie raised an eyebrow, "She has me to protect her! My family owns an entertainment company! Got a problem with that?"
"Does your company still sign artists? I really want to be an artist."
"I think you're crazy about getting famous. You don't want to make movies; you just want to be famous!"
"But isn't it the same? Once you make a movie, you will become famous! And you get loads of fans!"
"Sorry, but our company isn't going to sign you."
"Steph. I'm your cousin, after all. Help me out. My mom and my sister went to Skyline Corporation to ask your mom to help my sister find a job, and your mom agreed to consider it. Can you help me too. When we were kids, my sister bullied you, and I was just influenced by her to treat you badly."
Stephanie said indifferently, "Your mom and sister went to talk to my mom?"
"Yeah! After finding out your current status, they both want to get some benefits from your mom."
"And what about you? Don't you want to?"
"I do, but I'm more rational than my mom and my sister. I think you probably don't want to have anything to do with us anymore."
"So you still want to ask me for help?"
Zola gave a bitter smile, "I have no other choice but to ask you for help. If you really don't want to help me at all, there's nothing I can do!"
"You don't have self-awareness! The
entertainment industry is
complicated. If you can assure me that your mom and sister won't bothermy mom or appear in front of her, can let you join our company and become an influencer."
Gillian quickly said, "Influencers make a good amount of money now; they're not inferior to being an artists. As long as you're willing to work hard; plus, Steph is willing to call you cousin. Your popularity will definitely rise."
Zola was somewhat tempted, she quickly said, "If I can make a lot of money, my mom probably won't bother you anymore. But my sister, she's always living in a fantasy world. I'm not sure."
"Your mom can keep her in check. She's not young anymore; she can just find someone to marry."
"But that depends on whether she's willing."
"So, it still requires your mother to solve it."
"Steph, are you really willing to help me?"
"Don't you trust me?"
"Of course I trust you! I'm already very touched that you're willing to help me when I'm being bullied. This shows that you still acknowledge me as your cousin."
"You've misunderstood. Even if it
е
were someone else, I would step in to help. I'm helping you find a job just because I don't want you guys to keep bothering my mom! You're my cousin; that's a fact that can't be changed. I've been calling you cousin since I was a kid. So, don't mind you getting attention based on my fame. But you have to handle it yourself. If you cross my line, I won't hesitate to publicly declare on social media that I don't know you at all!"
