Chapter 1477:

Yvonne’s fingers twisted nervously, but she maintained her posture, looking up at Harlee, who was as calm as a still lake but with an edge of sarcasm. The tension made Yvonne’s eyes well up, and she suddenly raised her voice.

“I get it! You’re Tiffany’s friend, so naturally, you’ll take her side, but this—this is too much! How could you insult me like that?”

Earlier, it had been just Tiffany and Yvonne in the room. Yvonne had carefully crafted an image of being kind and generous in the industry, and she knew if she acted in this way, the sympathy of everyone around her would automatically shift to her side.

“I told you, I was only making a suggestion. It’s Tiffany’s decision whether she listens to it or not. But how can you call me self-righteous? You’re being aggressive and attacking me when all I was trying to do was look out for everyone. Seriously, who is the real selfish one here?” Yvonne’s voice started to crack with emotion as she added an air of righteousness.

“Let me explain—there was a time when I had my dressing room, but I gave it up for the sake of the team. So, tell me, was it wrong to try and be helpful?”

Yvonne had already confirmed there were no hidden cameras or surveillance in Tiffany’s dressing room, so she figured as long as she stuck to her story that Tiffany and Harlee were in the wrong and hired a crew of online trolls and influencers to stir the pot, public opinion would surely turn in her favor. If word of this reached the Sanderson family, they’d never let Tiffany, a woman with a tarnished reputation, marry into their family. More importantly, it could get Tiffany booted from the crew altogether. By then, Yvonne would be the one playing the sweet romantic lead with Clint.

Yvonne had done her homework. The Sanderson family had heavily invested in this production, which was why she’d worked so hard to maintain a pure, flawless image on set. She refused to believe that the Sanderson family’s full investment would let a flawed actress like Tiffany land the lead role.

As for Harlee, due to the work badge she had worn, Yvonne assumed Harlee had likely only joined the crew recently because of Tiffany’s connection. She felt Harlee had no social graces and doubted Harlee could have been hired on her own.

Harlee saw right through Yvonne’s game. A faint, mocking curve appeared at the corner of her lips, her eyes sharp and calculating. She raised an eyebrow and, without a hint of warmth, asked, “How did you manage to get into this crew?” What Harlee really wanted to ask was, “Who on earth had brought such a poor actress on board?”

Tiffany’s expression turned serious as she absorbed Harlee’s words. She knew Yvonne’s reputation well—she was notorious for her lack of talent in the industry. The idea that Yvonne could be part of this crew was laughable.

Tiffany recalled what the director had said: the crew’s only criterion for hiring actors was their performance ability, regardless of status. Yvonne could never have been chosen based on skill alone, and the thought of her being the second female lead was simply absurd.

As soon as Harlee asked the question, Yvonne’s lips curled into a smug sneer. She had the CEO of the Hampton Real Estate Group backing her. Who did Harlee think she was, questioning how she had gotten into the crew? Was Harlee insinuating her acting was subpar, that she’d only gotten in through connections?

While Yvonne had indeed gotten in using connections, Harlee’s doubts about her acting skills made her face tighten with displeasure.

Yvonne had mistakenly assumed that Harlee was just another staff member of the crew, and as a result, she dismissed Harlee entirely.

“Miss, I suggest you watch what you say,” Yvonne warned, her tone icy.

“That’s defamation, and I could sue you for it.”

Yvonne donned an exaggerated, faux-sympathetic expression.

“Well, I don’t like making life difficult for others. If you can convince Tiffany to give up her private dressing room, I won’t press charges. But tell me, do you and Tiffany have a close relationship? Do you really think she’ll give up her dressing room just because you said so?”

As Yvonne spoke, she deliberately stepped closer to the door. Within moments, the doorway was packed with curious onlookers, all craning their necks to see what was unfolding inside. Whispers filled the air, and before long, someone anonymously posted the drama in the crew’s group chat, sparking an even more heated discussion.
