Chapter: 315
Ariana grew impatient and feigned her interest as she replied, “Congratulations! | wish you a bright future ahead, Cole. Anyway, Tyler is still new. He isn’t talented like Cole. He needs some time to learn basic acting skills. So, he won't be involved in the drama.”
Donna understood what Ariana meant. However, she pretended to be considerate while insisting, “Don’t worry about his skills. | told you last night that Francis is good at grooming aspiring actors. Although Tyler is new, his performance would be exceptional under the guidance of other experienced actors.”
“You think | don’t know what you’re plotting? Don’t you know what this role entails? We won't accept the role. Please look for someone else,” Ariana scoffed as she burst out.
Donna’s expression also changed, and her face became twisted by anger. “You don’t have a choice. Tyler’s just a rookie. He should feel lucky to be offered this role. Don’t be so ungrateful!” she scolded gruffly.
“Whoever wants this role can take it!” Ariana retorted without hesitation. Cole and Tyler were both rookies, so why could Cole be the leading actor while Tyler had to take such a disgusting role? Donna must have deliberately arranged it.
In Ariana’s opinion, Tyler was no worse than Cole!
Donna felt heated from anger. She pulled off her silk scarf around her neck and rolled her sleeves as she argued, “Tyler will act in the drama. Don’t forget artists who have signed level B contracts are to comply with the company’s arrangement.
Otherwise, they are required to pay 100 times the liquidated damages.”
“In that case, we can go to Mr. Horace Silence’s office and ask him to help mediate our situation,” Ariana refuted. She knew Donna was referring to the contract that Tyler signed yesterday.
Once Ariana brought Horace into the picture, Donna felt a little afraid as she recalled her previous demotion. However, she couldn’t stand Ariana’s provocation, so she fought back.
“The company had just ended its shareholders’ meeting. I’m afraid Mr. Silence is very busy now. Are you sure you want to trouble him with such a small matter?”
Ariana was stunned. Donna smiled complacently. She had Jasper backing her up, while Ariana only had Horace.
Jasper was a shareholder who couldn't easily be replaced, unlike Theodore, who was only a CEO without shares. Being Theodore’s assistant, Horace was bound to lose his power sooner or later.
Donna regained her confidence and composure at the thought.
Ariana gritted her teeth and wanted to fight back. However, Tyler stood up abruptly and said while taking the contract from the table, “I'll accept the role.”
On the way back, Ariana walked ahead, ignoring Tyler.
She remained silent until they reached her office. Tyler could tell from her tone that she was angry the moment she spoke. “Do you understand what that role entails? If you accept it, your acting career may be ruined. Do you even know what you're doing?”
Ariana was exasperated. He had failed to live up to her expectations. She was about to lash out again but stopped when she saw Tyler lowering his head dejectedly.
She drew in a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She couldn't be angry. She didn’t want to affect her baby. What if it grew up to be as bad-tempered as Theodore?
She tried to soften her tone as she spoke. “I don’t mean to blame you. You are new to the company. You might even be unfamiliar with Donna as a person. She may seem nice when she offered you that role, but her actions are not out of kindness.
