She spoke of making compromises and knowing the big picture.
Although Connor Ford was very dissatisfied with the trouble she caused, the thought of the taste of her body, and then the stubborn and spicy way she had been during their first night together, managed to quell his anger. However, this did not make him any more pleasant toward Jasmine Clark. âNo need, an apology is useless. I know Ananâs character; if she said she wonât cooperate, she definitely wonât. Iâll think of another solution when the time comes. But without Anan, you canât have your costume fitting today.â
Jasmine Clark was a bit upset but still held back, âItâs okay, I can wait for you to find a suitable person and have my fitting then.â
Her answer made Connor Fordâs face soften a bit. While he reached out his hand to pinch her buttocks, he slowly said, âBy the way, there might be some changes to your role.â
Jasmine Clark felt the touch on her buttock, and she endured the sleazy advances of the old face in front of her, telling herself this was the darkest before dawn. If she could just endure this and make a name for herself, she wouldnât have to put up with it anymore. She forcibly shifted her attention and asked, âWhat changes? The lead is not acting anymore?â
âNo,â Connor Ford glanced at her and said, âPreviously, we agreed to let you play the Second Female Lead, didnât we? Now thatâs not possible. The Investor suddenly specified that they want Amelia Young to play the role. You know Amelia Young, right? Her family has some money, and she herself brought funding to act, so I had to agree and reserve the position of Second Female Lead for her. You will play the Third Female Lead instead.â@@novelbin@@
The Third Female Lead?!
Jasmine Clark abruptly pulled away his hand, her beautiful face cooling down instantly, unable to hide her anger as she demanded, âWhy do I have to give up my place for her! I already agreed not to take the lead role, and we had agreed that I would play the Second Female Lead. How did it suddenly change to the Third Female Lead? I refuse, I want to play the Second Female Lead! The Third Female Lead has so few scenes, I wonât do it!â
If it hadnât been for the incident just now, Connor Ford might have been in the mood to coddle her.
But she had just angered the makeup artist away, and now only a short while later, she was throwing another tantrum. Connor Ford was never one to feel sorry for women; it was only because her first time was with him that he treated Jasmine Clark differently, but even so, it was just for fun.
Not only was Jasmine Clark repeatedly causing him trouble, but she persistently acted like a First Young Lady.
His face suddenly turned stern, his tone cold and harsh, âTake it or leave it! Youâd better think it through! If youâre not acting, let me know early, so I can find someone else to replace you!â
âYouâ¦â
Jasmine Clark couldnât believe his attitude toward her.
Ever since she returned to the country, this older man had been accommodating her every whim, agreeing to almost everything she wanted. Only the lead role, which was settled long ago, couldnât be given to her; besides that, he had fulfilled all her desires.
She had never imagined that the man who had been so obliging could suddenly show a different face, denying recognition at the drop of a hat!
Impatiently looking at her, Connor Ford spoke even more bluntly and rudely, âWhat more do you want me to say to you? Amelia Young is someone the Investor has pushed forward, and they insist on her being the Second Female Lead. If you feel the Third Female Lead is beneath you and you also want to play the Second Female Lead, thatâs fine. Get someone to invest; as long as your investment is more than Amelia Youngâs, the Second Female Lead role is yours!â
âThink it over for yourself!â
With that, Connor Ford stormed off.
As soon as he left, Jasmine Clark, overtaken by rage, smashed all the makeup on the table, her face contorted as she looked at herself in the mirror.
Why, why does everyone bully her?
Looking at the face in the mirror, a sudden inspiration struck her.
