Chapter 254

Bella tried to calm herself down as she asked softly, “Didn’t you tell me that there was a vacant role just a while back? How did you find someone to fill that role in such a short time?”

Then, Kelly said, “I recommended you to Daniel when we auditioned for the queen. I was sure he would sign you. You’re such a good candidate, and you’re pretty famous too. However, Daniel suddenly brought a girl from nowhere to the audition, and he immediately got very interested in her. He wouldn’t listen to my opinion. In the end, he ended up signing an amateur with no experience. I have no idea what he’s thinking!”

“An amateur?” Bella’s face turned ugly. “What’s her name?”

“It’s…” Kelly thought for some time before she continued, “Ste… something, I think. I can’t remember. I haven’t met her before, and she did not mention that she acted before on her resume either. However, Daniel decided to use her right after the audition. Honestly, I don’t think she can act better than you. I wonder if that woman is Daniel’s secret lover.”

Bella sulked without talking.

Kelly knew that she was at fault. After all, she was the one who made huge promises to Bella, telling her that she could get her a role in the drama.

She just did not expect Daniel to be such a difficult person. Even though she was the assistant director, she had no say in picking the cast.

After that, she tried to make Bella feel better: “Daniel is such a stingy person. The salary he offered is low. I heard that the actress is making less than thirty thousand per episode. How could he get a good actress if he minimizes the cost? I’m pretty sure that you can easily earn ten times more than this by taking other dramas.”

Bella laughed indifferently.

‘Who told her that I wanted the money? I only wanted to be a part of this drama because of Daniel’s good reputation, and I’m trying to step my game up.

‘Kelly is so useless! I wouldn’t blame her if she weren’t so confident about getting me the role.

‘How could she tell me that there’s no spot left for me after how much money and effort I spent on her just to make her happy?

‘I’m sure that Daniel did not make that decision recently. I’d probably only find out about this after the drama is aired if I didn’t ask her about it.’

“Ms. Kelly, it’s not about the money. I like Daniel as a director, and I’ve always dreamed of working with him. Could you ask him if he can give me a chance to prove myself? I’ll take the job no matter how little he will pay me.”

What Bella said put Kelly in a hard position. “I don’t think I can help you with this. The main sponsor is very fond of Daniel, and he gets to make the final decision for everything at the set. I can’t interfere with it at all. However, I think you should ask Mr. Kane for help. The main sponsor of The Palace is Elegant Media, and I heard that Mr. Kane is a very good friend of the boss of Elegant Media. I’m sure Daniel wouldn’t dare to disobey what the main sponsor has to say, no matter how assertive he is.”

Bella’s eyes sparkled as she asked, “Ms. Kelly, how trustable do you think this rumor is?”

“To be honest, I haven’t met the boss of Elegant Media myself. However, nobody in Rivera. dares to cross the Kane family. You should utilize the trump card you have in your hand now.” Bella looked hesitant.

“That’s it. Think about it yourself. I have something to do now, bye. Remember to forward my message.”

Bella fell silent for a while after hanging up. Then, she dialed Keegan’s number.

However, it was not connected Keegan was talking to somebody else on the phone.

It was rare that she would call Keegan Normally, Keegan would contact her because he did not like her calling his personal number.

Even though Keegan did not say much after what happened at the Lake Villa, he started seeing Bella alone a lot lesser Keegan would talk to Wein directly about work without going through her.

Many of her sponsors pulled back after the accident too Even though a lot of drama production teams were interested in her, they were all unpopular Keegan also stopped finding jobs and sponsors for her She was not professionally trained to be an actress, and she did not have a strong background too Even though she was relatively famous then, she could not be compared to the real deals dominating the internet. She needed one or two dramas of superb quality to turn herself into an A lister However, Keegan stopped helping her, and it made her very restless Then, she looked at Wem and said. “Make a call to Mr. Kane and ask if he’ll be free for dinner tonight I have something to talk to him about.”
