Ewan nodded in satisfaction upon hearing what the director said. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something Jessie said. “By the way, Jessie told me that she was bullied by a composer! You have to fire that composer too!”
As soon as the director heard his allegation, he frantically waved his hands and pledged solemnly, “President Hunter, I swear nothing of that sort happened! I believe there’s no problem with Sweet Tune Guru’s personality because I have personally worked with her before!”
Ewan’s expression darkened right away. “What do you mean by that? Are you trying to say that my daughter made that up?”
“No, no! I don’t mean it that way at all! However, Sweet Tune Guru is a composer we hired with a handsome sum because we’ll be counting on her to turn this music video a hit! If this project turns out to be a success, it would bring benefit to my company as well as Nottom Entertainment!”
It was only then did Ewan realize the director’s stance—he would keep the so-called ‘Sweet Tune Guru’ in the project at all costs. Looking sullen, he turned around and left. He was displeased with the way the director compelled him into dropping the matter by claiming that it would be for the mutual benefits of both parties to keep the composer. If that was the case, he would get the director’s company as well as Sweet Tune Guru blacklisted after they finished shooting the music video. Let’s see if anyone still had the guts to compel me into doing anything in the future.
On Tuesday, Janet was monitoring the revision of her classmates in Class F as usual. As the trial exam was just around the corner, everyone was working diligently to avoid lagging behind.
Things were going so well that even The Beasts, who were initially equipped with only elementary school level knowledge, had finally mastered middle school syllabus after one whole week of hard work. It was easy to see that they were not intellectually challenged judging from the fact that they could now complete test papers on the middle school syllabus in a short time.
Daisy was extremely pleased to see Janet successfully motivating the students in Class F and often bought her snacks as a reward. Although Daisy would still be taunted by Lilian in the office from time to time, she wasn’t too mad at her. After all, if she was too bothered by her remarks, she wouldn’t be able to focus her attention on winning back her dignity.
One day after school, Janet was notified by the director that the shooting for the remaining part of the music video would be continued. She had no intentions to withdraw from the production at this point, considering she was only one step away from pocketing the handsome pay for her work. Hence, she rushed to the recording studio immediately.
In the dressing room, Janet sat leisurely on a stool with her eyes shut as the makeup artist did her makeup. Meanwhile, the makeup artists gathered and whispered among themselves.
“Jessie started throwing tantrums on some of the crew members as soon as she arrived.”
“Exactly. Now, everyone is avoiding her as if she is a ghost.”
“It’s all because her father is the president of Nottom Entertainment.”
“You’re right. She’s nobody without her father.”
“She always walks with her nose in the air and never treats us like humans.”
To everyone’s horror, Jessie suddenly barged into the dressing room in the middle of their discussion and slapped Janet’s makeup artist hard across the face. “You b*tch, how dare you talk about me behind my back!
When Jessie saw Janet walking into the dressing room, she decided to peek through the slit of the door but did not expect to hear the makeup artists secretly criticizing her. Did they even have the right to criticize her?
Touching her swollen face, the makeup artist stormed out of the room looking aggrieved, leaving Janet hanging with her makeup half done. The crew members tried to take a peek at the situation inside the dressing room as soon as they heard the commotion. Seeing Jessie’s face livid with rage, they knew it would be another bad day for Sweet Tune Guru.
“What happened to Jessie that gave her such a bad temper?”
“I haven’t a clue. Who offended her again?”
“I heard that Sweet Tune Guru is going to be fired soon.”
“Someone told me Jessie complained to her father and asked to fire her.”
“Really? That’s such a pity!”
“Alas, Sweet Tune Guru has only herself to blame for offending Jessie!”
Jessie’s eyes couldn’t help but light up with delight, having listened to the crew members gossiping about her. At least she was sure that no one dared to offend her now. With that thought in mind, she pointed at Janet and snapped, “You’ll be leaving soon!” Hmph, I have to ensure this bullsh*t and slutty composer leave this place today!
With a smirk, Janet countered, “Are you sure about that?”
