Bella did not dare to take the risk of getting exposed nor could she afford to take it.
She had no leverage at all ever since she underwent surgery.
Bella swallowed her resentment and said, “Ms. Jewell, that’s not true. I don’t have a boyfriend. The media made it up.”
Stella smiled. “Is that so? After the multiple car crash on the bridge that time, I personally saw that gentleman visiting you at the hospital. Would an ordinary friend do that?”
Keegan, who was working in his office, mysteriously sneezed a few times in a row.
Bella was starting to get annoyed by how assertive Stella was as she said with a dark expression, “I already told you I don’t have a boyfriend. So, what are you trying to say?”
Stella looked at her indifferently. “It was just a joke. Don’t you like to joke around? There’s no need to get angry.”
Her response left Bella speechless.
Stella was not bothered to talk to her anymore. She turned around without looking at her and left to touch up her makeup.
In truth, Stella would never want to push Bella over the edge if she would just stay in her own lane.
If Bella were a little smarter, she would just stick with making money and nothing else. After all, her popularity was not going to disappear overnight, and she would always have another chance to make a transition. That way, she could still be relevant in the industry even when she got older.
However, Bella just would not stop provoking Stella and imagined that Stella was her enemy. There was just something wrong with her head.
The fact that Bella ditched The Tea Merchant and chose a subpar drama like World Peace made Stella think that idols like Bella had to exist in the industry.
At least idols like her could show their fans the consequences of not studying hard, which caused her to not be able to tell a good or bad script apart.
Leighton’s manager pinned him down on the chair. He was very worried that Leighton would lose control and stand up for his crush.
It was just a small argument between two actresses, but it would turn into a battle between two fan bases if he were to intervene.
Leighton’s manager did not want to clean up Leighton’s mess at all, so he did not let go even if Leighton bit him.
“Hey,” Stella said while waving her hand.
Leighton’s anger was nowhere to be found as soon as he heard Stella’s voice. He pushed his manager away and fixed his collar in a rather attractive manner as he responded, “Mhm.”
Stella was taken aback.
‘Why is he so cold to me?
‘Didn’t his manager say that he voluntarily offered to touch up my makeup?
‘It doesn’t look like it at all.’
Stella licked her lips and coughed. “Um, can I have your makeup artist touch up my makeup?”
She added before Leighton could say anything. “Forget it if it’s not convenient.”
“Sure you can!” Leighton blurted out when he saw that Stella was about to leave. Then, he felt like he made himself look too eager and quickly readjusted his expression. “We can get off earlier if everyone’s makeup is done sooner.”
Stella immediately replied, “Don’t worry. I’m not going to slow you down.”
Leighton kept quiet.
On the other side, Bella was in the washroom and the expression on her face was extremely awful.
The fact that Keegan stopped supporting her and Elegant Media not taking her seriously anymore, coupled with the emergence of new idols, her popularity had started to go downhill. If she could not come up with a solution, she would become irrelevant in less than two years. She had gotten used to a glamorous and luxurious lifestyle like now, and she could never allow herself to go back to her old life.
After thinking about it, she took out her phone and found a contact
