Chapter 432
Allison hit the set. She did a few reshoots, and then headed back to the office. She was almost done
filming this drama.
Patty hadn’t shown up yet, so Allison made her way to her dressing room.
Allison’s dressing room was fresh off a renovation, thanks to Epic Entertainment renting a three-story
building.
Backed by the big bucks from Lindberg Corporation, Epic Entertainment had already sunk its teeth into
30 TV shows and 11 movies this year, with practically every production featuring their own talent. You
could say Epic Entertainment was one of the big three in the entertainment biz with the most
resources.
With seasoned agents like Patty and Charlie, for the talent signed here, they were swimming in
resources. Worst-case scenario, they’d land some supporting roles and be constantly involved in new
projects throughout the year.
Since the dressing room was just renovated, some of the facilities were still a bit rough around the
edges, like not having a standalone fridge.
Lola asked Allison, “You thirsty? I can get you some water.”
“Mhm.” Allison murmured.
Lola took off, and five minutes later, Allison heard a knock at the door. Thinking it was Lola, she said,
“Come in.”
Lola was usually a bundle of energy. Allison wondered why she was being so formal today, even
knocking before entering her dressing
room.
She was lounging in her chair, reading with her head down. The window was open, and she heard the NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
click-clack of high heels.
Allison pursed her lips slightly, and as she swiveled her chair around, she caught a whiff of strong rose
perfume.
In an instant, Allison knew it wasn’t Lola who’d come, but Charlie.
Sure enough, she turned around and saw Charlie standing not far away, decked in a black Prada
trench coat.
Allison didn’t say anything, just closed her book and looked at Charlie. She didn’t get up either,
seemingly waiting for Charlie to make the first move.
Charlie said, “Allison, do you have a moment? Can I chat with you?”
Allison glanced at her watch, “You’ve got 15 minutes.”
Charlie was surprised. Allison seemed gentle but was pretty good at giving people the brush-off. She
cracked a smile, “15 minutes is a bit tight. There’s a café downstairs, how about we…”
Allison cut her off, “Patty will be here in 15 minutes.”
Charlie looked as if she’d been slapped in the face. Her complexion changed, not exactly ugly, just a bit
off. The next second she said, “Alright, 15 minutes then.”
Charlie and Patty had both been at Epic Entertainment for over a decade. If Patty knew Charlie was
trying to sign Allison, it would indeed be a bit awkward when they met,
Charlie pulled a folder out of her bag and handed it to Allison, “Even though you turned me down
before, I’ve written a plan for you. Have a look. Also, here’s a Twitter follower boost strategy I had
drawn up for you.”
Allison raised an eyebrow and took a quick glance inside. The shows Charlie had planned for her all
had a solid fan base from the original works, and her co-stars were all current top-tier celebrities.
Charlie wore a confident smile, “If you take on these shows, you’ll be the lead actress. Your popularity
will skyrocket. In three years, you’ll be a top actress in the entertainment industry.”
Allison asked, “You made a similar plan for Penelope, didn’t you?”
Charlie looked a bit awkward, “That’s not important. You’re a better fit.”
Charlie admitted that the woman in front of her did bear a resemblance to Penelope in terms of
appearance. But their personalities were worlds apart.
While Penelope had a bit of a temper, she was easy to manage. Allison, on the other hand, seemed
gentle and refined, but was actually the type of great resilience.
