In a high-end apartnt in Astra City, Serena Blackwood stood by the window, wearing a bathrobe and holding a glass of red wine, her phone placed on the table, repeatedly looping a video of Natalie Vaughn falling from the air to the ground.
Her long hair reached her waist, with the ends still wet, soaking the robe.
Suddenly, the video sound stopped abruptly, and the phone rang. Serena Blackwood raised her neck and drained the wine in her glass, a look of disgust flashed across her face when she saw the caller ID on the screen.
But when the call connected, her voice was as usual.
"Cousin."
Yvonne Blackwood seed reluctant to foster a good relationship with this sister picked halfway, unwilling to even make a pretense.
"Grandfather wants you to co ho tomorrow night."
Serena Blackwood’s eyes lowered slightly, responding in a low voice.
"Okay."
It seed Yvonne Blackwood was also forced by the family to make this call, her tone not pleasant. She always looked down on this sister, rely an actress who pretended to be pitiful to gain grandfather’s attention, sothing that can’t be shown in public.
"This ti the family is celebrating your birthday, you should stay ho and stop showing off outside."
Serena Blackwood curled her lips into a sneer, she made a splash in the entertainnt industry, whereas Yvonne Blackwood showcasing authority in the family company was not considered showing off.
"You know, cousin, I have no skills, only able to make my way in the entertainnt industry."
Who knows which word hit Yvonne Blackwood’s sore spot, her mood seed to lighten up a bit.
"Hmph, only those with no skills fool around in the entertainnt industry, if you learned sothing and ca back to the company to help , that would be the right path."
Serena Blackwood smiled and didn’t speak.
Back when Yvonne Blackwood proposed to grandfather about an alliance marriage with the Thorne Family, she was rejected. What did grandfather say at that ti?
The Thorne Family may be rising, but their Blackwood Family had fallen, unable to reach such heights. Later Yvonne Blackwood futilely fantasized about gaining Zane Thorne’s affection through her, but that man...
Serena Blackwood’s eyes subtly shifted, lips pursed with a hint of unwillingness.
Yvonne Blackwood was always unsatisfied with Zane Thorne being taken by that little girl Natalie Vaughn, how much she held against Natalie Vaughn was unknown. Now that Natalie Vaughn was off filming, she deed it improper, a nothing pursuing the entertainnt industry to beco a joke.
Serena Blackwood lowered her gaze, she was different from Yvonne Blackwood and Natalie Vaughn, her standing in the entertainnt industry was all fought for with her own efforts, she had no support, only her achievents in the entertainnt industry.
Thinking of this, Serena Blackwood let out a cold smile.
Didn’t Director Gable say she had talent? But would he really delay the entire production for Natalie Vaughn? As far she knew, the investors of "The Rising Monarch" highly valued the project, the progress was constantly being expedited.
Almost finished filming, post-production done, a schedule will quickly be arranged.
Natalie Vaughn’s fall left her in the hospital for half a month, making filming impossible. The only thing Director Gable could do was to revise Natalie Vaughn’s scenes.
As a third female lead, how outstanding could she be with reduced scenes?
Serena Blackwood’s calculations seed flawless, unaware that Natalie Vaughn’s fall was fake and Jasmine Blackwood had already been caught by the police.
...
Natalie Vaughn found out that Serena Blackwood was involved in the matter two hours after Jasmine Blackwood was taken in, as expected.
However, Natalie Vaughn couldn’t understand if Serena Blackwood did all this solely for Zane Thorne? Not to ntion that Zane Thorne didn’t even rember who she was, such behavior from Serena already earned Natalie Vaughn’s disdain and loathing from the bottom of her heart.
Not only did she shalessly covet a married man, but she also committed acts that endangered lives for love, making her unfit to be called human. No educated person should do such things.
Yet Serena Blackwood debuted under the guise of a prestigious university degree and won an award for Best Actress.
Shaless.
Natalie Vaughn directly told Felix Langdon and Jas Vaughn about it, letting the two handle the arrangents. To walk smoothly in the entertainnt circle, one can’t do without connecting to capital. Over the years, the only one who could counter capital without being crushed by it was one individual.
And Serena Blackwood didn’t have the skills to beco the second.
By eight in the evening, the production’s official account had already released the confird truth online, and after discovering it was preditated harm against Natalie Vaughn, her fans went into an uproar, starting investigations to dig out the culprit.
These things were easy for the fans to unravel, just a little hint or point, and netizens would follow the trace to keep digging.
But Natalie Vaughn didn’t do that, instead, she posted a Weibo.
"Darling, there’s no need to find out, let handle the bad guys. Don’t accidentally hurt anyone else."
This post made fans admire her even more, singing praises of her beauty and kindness, calling her the mighty lady.
Oh, by the way, the title "Lady" was a nickna given by fans who couldn’t dig out Natalie Vaughn’s powerful family background, perfectly fitting, and it also made Natalie Vaughn happy, so she let them keep calling her that.
Fans didn’t expect that their praised "Lady" at this mont was holding a phone to boast to Zoe Chandler.
"Does my Weibo post have a hint of tea?"
Lately, Natalie Vaughn had gotten addicted to acting, not only pretending to be weak but also wanting to learn so coquettish speaking ways, dubbed as a new trick to play between couples once Zane returned.
Zoe Chandler was already impressed by this new interest of the "Lady".
"Where’s the tea? It’s full of class and style."
"If you want to be coquettish, I can teach you."
"Hmm?"
"Darlings, I’m fine, you don’t need to worry, this pain is nothing to , I believe that person didn’t an it."
Natalie Vaughn: ...
"Is that what makes a coquette?"
"Barely counts."
"Isn’t that just making a fool of oneself?"
Zoe Chandler just stared at Natalie Vaughn without speaking.
Natalie Vaughn: ....
"Ahem, maybe coquettish doesn’t suit ."
Zoe Chandler sighed.
"My Lady, even with your normal charm, you could grasp your man well, don’t learn botherso things to annoy your man."
Along with pestering us too.
Natalie Vaughn waved her hand.
"I’m just bored lying in the hospital."
Zoe Chandler pulled up a chair to sit down.
"Why not discuss the itineraries after filming with ?"
Natalie Vaughn furrowed her brows.
"What else after filming?"
"Cough, just other activities, like galas, and if you want, participating in variety shows is fine too."
Natalie Vaughn shook her head disdainfully.
"No, it’s boring. I want to go to a show."
Zoe Chandler’s eyes lit up.
"Sure, what show?"
Natalie Vaughn ntioned a na, and Zoe Chandler was silent for a long ti. This show only invited socialites and fashion industry giants, no actors or models were eligible to participate.
She felt unqualified.
"Didn’t you find filming to be fun?"
"It was fun."
"Want to shoot more?"
Natalie Vaughn thought for a long ti, just as Zoe thought there was hope and her eyes lit up again, Natalie Vaughn shook her head.
"No desire."
Zoe Chandler: ...
It’s so hard, why can’t Natalie Vaughn just enjoy the entertainnt industry a bit more? She had so much potential to be developed, with her skills surely Natalie could be grood to be at the top.
Such a waste of this budding superstar with no ambition.
