2/2 Rebirth of a flopped Actress: Career First Love Secon Chapter 127 Her Embarrassing Past Projects + Pearls The scandal involving Sophia caused an uproar throughout St. Rona Academy, and ever since the incident broke out, Sophia had not returned to school.
When Olivia entered the classroom, she overheard a group of girls chatting about a newly released TV drama.
âDo you think the production team of Sweetheart Forevermore has lost their minds? That supporting actress is terrible. Why cast her and drag the entire show down?â
Originally planning to rest her head on the desk, Olivi perked up at the mention of the show.
Sweetheart Forevermore? Why does that sound familiar? Wait a minute. Isnât that one of my embarrassing past projects?
After being brought back to the Carter family, Amelia, knowing Olivia aspired to be an actress, had -arranged for her to sign with a small entertainment company. The company, handpicked by Amelia, wasnât big, and the roles they got for Olivia were always overdone and unlikable villains.
And Sweetheart Forevermore was one of those roles.
While Olivia was lost in thought, reminiscing about those events, her phone suddenly rang.
The screen displayed âMr. Daniel,â and Olivia arched her brow as she answered.
âHello?â
A gruff, impatient voice came through the line immediately.
âThe production for the drama I told you about is starting today. Head to the set this afternoon and report in. This is a project under Mr. Jos, so donât mess it up. Behave yourself and deliver, got it?â
Without waiting for a reply, her agent hung up.
Staring at her phone, Oliviaâs lips curved into a faint smile.
Jos Andersonâs latest project? Amelia is part of this production too.
In her previous life, the online backlash Olivia faced in the entertainment industry had been meticulously orchestrated by none other than Amelia.
This time, Olivia vowed to repay Amelia for her âkindnessâ in full.
Following the address given by her agent, Olivia arrived at the filming location.
Jos Anderson was a renowned director whose period dramas were hugely successful. This project, titled âA Little Spark of Joy,â
was his first foray into contemporary settings.
Olivia had been cast as the third female lead.
A man in his thirties with sharp features and a sour expression approached Olivia as soon as he saw her.
âWhy are you so late? Your sceneâs coming up. Hurry up and get to the makeup room!â
1/2 11:16 Tue, Jan Chapter 127 Her Embarrassing Past Projects This was Daniel Trent, her agent.
Casting a disdainful glance at Olivia, Daniel led her toward the makeup area, clearly irritated.
+8 Pearls âThis drama is almost wrapped up, so your part will only take a few days to shoot. Even though itâs a third- lead role, you still have decent screen time,â Daniel said âYou should be grateful for landing a role in Mr. Josâ production. With your status, getting even this is like winning the lottery. The original actress for this up and role had to bow out due to an injury, and Amelia personally recommended you. If you screw this delay the wrapâup, youâll regret it. Be sure to thank Amelia later.â
Listening to Danielâs condescending tone, Oliviaâs lips curved into a cold smile.
âInjury? The original actress probably walked away after reading the script,â she said, her voice dripping with sarcasm.
The role might be the third female lead, but the character was an outright disaster, a vain, greedy woman who repaid kindness with betrayal and was responsible for most of the villainy in the plot.
In her past life, taking this role, coupled with the atrocious styling arranged by her agent, had made her a laughingstock.
Daniel froze for a moment.
How does Olivia know the original actress dropped out?
19 ઠૠનૠઠâWho told you that nonsense? Itâs because of her injury, got it? Stop overthinking. You should be thanking the company for finding you a role at all. Do you think youâre in a position to pick and choose?â
Rolling his eyes, Daniel pushedâOlivia into the makeup room.
Inside, a stunning woman with a curvaceous figure and a face sculpted like a social media influencer sat in front of a mirror, her makeup being applied.
The moment Daniel saw her, his scowl transformed into an obsequious grin.
âWillow, you look absolutely stunning today. Mr. Jos said your performance in the earlier scenes was outstanding.â
Willow Parker lazily opened her eyes, casting a glance at Daniel before shifting her gaze to Olivia.
âSo, this is Olivia?â
âYes.â Daniel replied, nodding enthusiastically.
