Chapter 102
“Who is this? Why haven’t we met before?” Ashley faked a polite smile and asked again, “Josie, you have a new love again?”
*Sebastian Long, a newly signed artist by Clusia Media Group. You two shared the same last name. Please help us to take care of him in the future. Josie also smiled politely and was about to leave with Sebastian.
Josie, do you work in Clusia Media Group?” Ashley was stunned for a moment, and her face darkened instantly.
Josie actually entered Clusia Media Group!
“It’s not an easy job. Make sure you keep the job, Josie.” Ashley passed by Josie as if she had to walk ahead of the latter to consider a winner.
Sebastian squinted. Just when Ashley came nearer to him, he pretended to be falling down the steps.
Instantly, all the fans present burst into a frenzy.
Sebastian was a new artist. Although he did not have much fame, he was a school hunk in school. There were many people coming to see him. In addition, Ashley’s fans were all there, so the falling that he faked could easily cause misunderstanding.
I’m sure Ms. Long didn’t push me on purpose. Josie, please don’t blame her. While Ashley was still in puzzlement, Sebastian’s handsome face was full of panic, fear, and a wave of complicated emotions.
He was indeed the best actor.
Josie held Sebastian’s hand. If she had not seen that Sebastian fell down by himself, she would have believed it because of his expression and red eyes.
“What do you mean? When did I push you?” Ashley became a little anxious.
“Ashley! Thomas quickly pulled Ashley away and shook his head at her. “The fans are all here…”
Artists must always pay attention to their images.
“Sebastian
“What’s wrong with that woman? How dare she push our Prince of Hofcaster Film School?”
“That’s right. Who is that woman?”
“She is one of the most famous artists now, Ashley Long.”
“Who is Ashley Long? I don’t know her. How could she push him? She needs to apologize to him!”
For a moment, the scene became slightly chaotic.
Josie gave Sebastian a warning glare for disregarding the importance of the occasion.
When Sebastian, the pretentious jerk, met Ashley, the pretentious woman, it was clear who would become the winner.
Obviously, as long as a male artist was handsome and good at acting, he would attract more fans.
“I think… we also saw Ash pushing him.”
“Does Ash have a hatred for this new artist?
Chapter 102
“Who knows…”
Sebastian raised his eyebrows at Josie and stood up, covering his injured hand.
Josie, I’m fine. Don’t worry about me. This injury is nothing. Even if I failed the audition, it doesn’t matter. Ms. Long entered the industry earlier than me. Moreover, the roles are not conflicting…”
Sebastian lowered his head. He was obviously aggrieved, yet he was still ‘speaking for Ashley.
At that moment, the hearts of Ashley’s fans almost shattered into pieces.
They thought, “How on earth could he be so adorable? He is still speaking for Ash even when he is injured.”
“Sebastian, behave yourself.” Josie pulled Sebastian away from Ashley and reminded him through gritted teeth.
Ashley’s face turned pale with anger. “Josie!” she cursed inwardly.
“Mind your image.” Thomas grabbed Ashley and quickly entered the filming set.
Among the fans, Madelyn and several entertainment journalists happened to be at the scene.
“Saw that? It’s the headline of the news. Let’s write it this way. A big–headed popular actress pushed the newcomer down the steps, thinking she had a strong backup.”
She added, “The popular actress, AL, was jealous of the newcomer and deliberately pushed him down the steps, causing the newcomer to get hurt. She remained haughty and refused to apologize
“Take photos of all the fans. You, go to Sebastian’s fan chat group to incite them,” she ordered.
Madelyn commanded the people with a wicked smile..
“Madelyn… The assistant next to her was trembling. “Ashley didn’t offend you, did she?”
‘Offend me? The hatred between us is very intense! We’re bitter enemies!” Madelyn gritted her teeth.
The assistant was shocked. “Madelyn, did she kill your father?”
“No, no. I’m only using it as an analogy Madelyn hurriedly spat to get rid of the curse. Her father could be sneezing at home now.
“Since you have such an intense hatred for her, don’t worry, Madelyn. I’ll take care of it for you!” The assistant patted his chest. He was good at it.
For the scene of the audition, as “A Pond of Reeds was a large–scale drama of the age, the setting was located at a village in the remote mountainous area of Hofcaster. The folk customs there were simple, and the audition site was very rigorous.
“Josie, your man is too rude. I didn’t push him at all. If a newcomer wants to stay in this circle, he must respect his seniors!” Ashley was not blind. She began to argue with Josie the moment she entered the site.
“Why? Do you want to get someone to suspend him or pick on him?” Josie looked at Ashley coldly as she stood in front of Sebastian to protect him.
“This circle is not big. With my connections, I can make him fail terribly. Ashley lowered her voice, threatening.
“Your connections?” Josie smiled ironically. “Without Henry, do you really have any connections? Don’t show off when you’re in charge. Keeping a low profile is always wise.”
“Josie Ashley gritted her teeth. Her face turned pale with anger.

“Ms. Long, are you auditioning for the role of the heroine? One may think that you’re playing another role given your outfit today. Behind her, Rebecca was dressed in simple sportswear without makeup. She was holding a script for the audition in her hand.
“Rebecca.” Josie flashed a smile at Rebecca. “What a coincidence.”
“I heard that you are now the manager of Clusia Media Group. I’d like to recommend an artist who is worth signing up.” With that said. Rebecca walked toward Josie and winked at her.
Josie covered her mouth and coughed. “It can’t be…” she thought.
“That’s right. It’s me.” After saying that, Rebecca did not forget to flirt with Sebastian, who was reading the script. “Hi, handsome. Are you a newcomer? How old are you? How tall are you? Do you have a girlfriend? I’m single recently.”
Josie and Sebastian looked at each other and were speechless.
Ashley, who got ignored, clenched her fingers.
“Josie, humph! I’ll see how arrogant you can be later,” she snorted inwardly. Thomas, Henry said he will come later, right?”
“Yeah. Mr. Gibson has an appointment with Mr. Yancey from Clusia Media Group. They want to come and watch your audition in person.” Thomas said it intentionally
Josie frowned and thought. They really like to show off.”
“What’s the big deal? Is there anything to be proud of with a strong backup? Tsk!” Rebecca rolled her eyes contemptuously and continued to flirt with Sebastian. “Handsome, who do you think is more good–looking, Ashley or me?”
Sebastian was speechless upon hearing that.
Sizing Rebecca up from head to toe, Rebecca’s bare face was indeed not as pretty as Ashley’s. Nonetheless, given Sebastian’s crafty personality, he flashed an innocent smile and said, “Of course, you look better, Josie.”
Josie was amused. She hurriedly stood between the two and separated them.
Josie knew Rebecca all too well. In the latter’s eyes, Sebastian was simply a delicious hot young man that she almost could
not resist.
According to the company’s rules, artists were not allowed to get into a relationship, especially in the stage of career advancement. They also could not expose anything unfavorable to their development,
“You have good taste. I’ve decided that I’m going to…. share a manager with you. After saying that, Rebecca leaned herself against Josie. “Sign me up. I’ll make you advanced.”
“I’m just a manager in my internship… Josie thought she did not have any influence in Clusia Media Group to sign Rebecca
-over.
“After deducting the company commission, I’ll give you ten percent of my income. How about that?” Rebecca looked at Josie seriously.
Josie sighed. “You really have hopes on me.
“Anyway, I don’t mind failing. Instead of working with someone I dislike, I’d rather work with you. Worse comes to worst, we’ll just starve together.” Rebecca pouted. Obviously, she was not happy in the entertainment industry.
Josie also heard rumors about Rebecca, saying that she mentally broke down in the middle of the night and went to see a psychiatrist.
