Chapter 1480 Encouragement âSorry, but | canât help,â Jessie refused. âAre you still angry at me? Iâm sorry. A lot of things happened back then, so | was ina bad mood. Please donât be angry at me.â
â| have to sleep now, Miss Houston. Goodbye.â âJessie? Jessie!â Lulu didnât want to hang up, but Jessie couldn't care less. She hung up anyway.
She continued reading the script. Everyone was watching her, especially the role she would play. She wouldnât let anyone down, nor would she give those haters a chance to mock her. | will play this role perfectly. | will challenge the impossible. However, not too long later, her phone rang again. It was another unfamiliar number. She hesitated for a moment, but she picked it up anyway.
âWho's this?â
âJessie? It's me, Mabel.â Of course, Jessie knew who Mabel was. She narrowed her eyes. âAnything you need?â
â| just heard the news, and Iâm happy for you. | knew you'd get the role the moment | saw you getting along with Julian. Didnât think Vincent approves of you as well.â
Jessie stayed quiet and let her talk. As she expected, Mabel started showing her true colors moments later.
âMy friend told me you guys are looking for a tritagonist. Can you help me out?â Mabel asked without feeling any shame at all.
âSorry, but | canât help,â Jessie answered coolly.
âPlease, you gotta help me. Things are hard, and weâre desperate for a job. Please, help me out. I'll help you out if you need me down the line.â
â| donât need your help.â
Jessie was about to hang up, but Mabel hissed, âDonât get too cocky, Jessie. You might have gotten lucky this time, but Julian might not help you next time. You need friends, get it?â
âYou didnât get what | meant. | donât need a friend like you.â Jessie scoffed.
âWhy you little... | donât know how you got the role, but what | do know is that an amateur like you canât possibly do the part of the female lead. They might change you out for someone else halfway through,â Mabel mocked.
â| donât need your advice.â With that, Jessie hung up.
That was twice in a row. She couldnât believe it. She could never forget how these people had mocked her, and these people were the reason she resolved to walk this path. She looked through Trending on social media to see how Fallen Heaven was faring, but to her surprise, the top search was something involving her.
She clicked into it and noticed that the comments had already hit a hundred grand and rising. She covered her mouth. She didnât open the comments in case they were all insults. In the end, however, she wanted to see what the netizens thought of her, so she clicked on it. And the content surprised herâa lot of fans were looking forward to this.
â| heard sheâs the prettiest stuntwoman around. Now, | know why. Iâm looking forward to this.â
âShe looks like a goddess. She won't disappoint us.â
âIve seen too many familiar faces in too many shows. A newbie brings in a breath of fresh air.â
âHey, she got Julianâs seal of approval. So, she gets my seal of approval as well.â
âTd love to see this film. | bet it's romantic.â
Jessie felt a weight lifted off her shoulders. If the fans are rooting for me, | have to root for myself as well.
