Chapter 438
Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right
ollowing her setback in securing the lead role for Vincentâs new movie, Kristy swiftly reached an agreement with Ray Films and enthusiastically signed on for a new movie.
It was during this time that Shelia had the chance to get acquainted with Kristy.
Amidst the entertainment industryâs glittering facade, rivalry ignited between Lindsey and Kristy, kindled by past discord over casting choices and stoked by Sheliaâs deliberate incendiary remarks.
âKristy, Lindseyâs arrogance knows no bounds.
After Selah won the audition, Lindsey promptly planned a lavish company launch, even securing coverage from Eastview Television Network.
She aims to ride this wave to boost her popularity.
Without her, you wouldnât have missed out on starring in Vincentâs new movie.
It appears sheâs seizing this chance to trample on you and ascend.
From what I know, sheâs a schemer who stops at nothing,â Shelia said, fueling Kristyâs simmering animosity towards Lindsey.
Upon Sheliaâs suggestion, Kristy resolved to stage a large-scale fan meeting, intending to disrupt Lindseyâs opening ceremony.
Meanwhile, Shelia busily arranged the meeting venue but couldnât help noticing Lindsey and others bustling at the companyâs entrance from afar.
Approaching Lindsey with an air of smugness, she said, âLindsey, were I you, Iâd reconsider hosting the opening today.
Right next door is Kristyâs fan meeting.
You know her immense popularity.
Your affair might seem feeble and vanquished in comparison.
It wouldnât bode well for your reputation if this spreads online.
â
Lindsey lifted her gaze to Sheliaâs arrogant and obnoxious features.
It turned out she was the reason behind Kristyâs sudden fan meeting.
Meeting Sheliaâs arrogance, Lindsey responded with a faint smile, âShelia, resorting to Kristyâs aid because you couldnât handle it alone? Are you merely a minion, scurrying around seeking help from anyone?â
âYou!â Sheliaâs glare burned with anger as she restrained herself, retorting with curled lips, âYour snark wonât serve you well.
Your time to rue will come!â
As the time for the opening ceremony and fan meeting neared, Kristyâs car rolled past Lindsey and Shelia, stopping nearby.
Kristy lowered her window, donning oversized sunglasses that only revealed her delicate chin and red Lips.
âLindsey, fancy seeing you here.
Who wouldâve thought youâd venture into running a company? Seems like the entertainment circle isnât too discerning after all.
Everyoneâs dipping their toes!â Kristy smirked, her tone laced with provocation.
Unfazed, Lindsey replied with a smile, âIndeed, the entertainment industryâs bar isnât that high.
Even someone with your acting prowess secured the Best Actress award thrice.
My companyâs launch doesnât seem as noteworthy.
â
With a casual disregard, Lindsey left behind a pointed retort, leaving Kristy fuming.
Kristyâs eyes glared from beneath the sunglasses.
âLindsey, despite your words, my status as the Best Actress stands.
But the longevity of your companyâs success remains uncertain!â
âYour reminder is duly noted.
Iâll bear it in mind,â Lindsey said with a smile that seemed impervious to any hurt.
Kristyâs irritation only intensified on seeing Lindseyâs seemingly unshakable arrogance.
Then she noticed Domenic, whom she held dear, approaching Lindsey from behind.
âLinds, everything alright?â Domenic gently dr@ped his arm around Lindseyâs shoulders.
His commanding presence, accentuated by a crisp suit that exuded aristocracy, softened into warmth as he faced Lindsey, leaving Kristy captivated by his irresistible allure.
âNothing.
I just coincidentally ran into Miss Chase and exchanged a few words.
Sheâs holding a fan meeting nearby,â Lindsey said, tilting her head and giving Domenic an affectionate smile.
Their gazes held an unspoken connection, which only heightened Kristyâs frustration.
Biting her lip, she crumpled the silky fabric of her dress, the pang of jealousy growing louder within her.
How could he show interest in Lindsey but not even spare her a glance?
This only fueled her competitive spirit, igniting her determination to snatch Domenic away and make him fall head over heels for her.
