Third Person POV
“Are they even serious about casting her as the main role?” Sabrina complains as she gets in the elevator of the company crossing her arms in front of her chest.
“I couldn’t really get any more detail than that but there is a rumor that the writer really has her in mind while creating the main character and the story.” Her manager said the elevator is ascending.
“Seriously why does people starting to lower their taste for that witch.” Sabrina said when the elevator door suddenly opens. “Hi, Vander.” she said and wink at him.
He smiles at her and steps inside the elevator with his manager following him.
“Hi, how have you been?” She asks.
“I’m doing great,” Vander replied and smile at her again.
“How was the shooting of your new project?” She asks again. “I bet it was exhausting, right?” Sabrina said and tried to get close to Vander when his manager cleared her throat. “Oh Hi, Francia” Sabrina said and smiled at her and raised her eyebrow at her.
“Hi,” Francia greeted her in return.
“By the way Van, are you free next Saturday? I’m hosting a party, I would like to invite you.” Sabrina said and hugged Vander’s arm. “It will be fun, I promise. I’ve been planning this for a long time---” she tried to add but immediately got cut off by another person.
“Sorry but Sabrina, Vander wouldn’t be able to make it. His schedule If full for this month, he wouldn’t have time to attend your party.” Francia said and smiled at Sabrina sweetly.
“I mean it’s just one day, it wouldn’t hurt if he will have one day off right?” Sabrina said raising her eyes brow. “What do you say Van?” she asks Vander and thug his sleeves.
“I---” Vander tried to answer.
“He is busy, his opinion On this doesn’t matter. I’m his manager and the one managing his schedule and I said he wouldn’t be able to make it to the party,” Francia said cutting him off.
“Are you Vander? I’m asking Vander.” Sabrina said looking at her with a sharp gaze.
“No, but I’m his manager in charge. And as far as I know, our manager has said at what party or things should you artist do. Besides, if he is going to reschedule his work on that day we will have to adjust everything, including his schedule for next month. Can your conscience stand that you took his time to have a rest next month just for a ‘party’?” Francia asks her and Vander cleared his throat.
“She is right Sab, I already made a promise to our boss that I will not have anything on my schedule this month to be rescheduled. Maybe I can make it up to you next month?” Vander said and smiled at her.
“That's so annoying, but fine I understand you. But I will never forget that ‘make it up next month’ thing you said.” She said and wink at him.
“Of course, you have my word,” he answered.
“Fine, I trust you,” Sabrina replied back and snatch a kiss on Vander’s cheeks and quickly get off the elevator as soon as its door opens. “See you soon,” She said, kissing him before the door closed again.

“OKAY CUT!” the director shouted and she stood up and clap her hand as she walked toward Brianne. “That was amazing, well resume for the next scene after in two hours. You should take a rest first, I know it’s exhausting.” She added.
“Thank you, Ms. Hazon, I will make sure to read and practice my line again for the next scene,” Brianne replied as one of the staff came to her and help with her wardrobe.
“I know, you're a very hard-working actress that’s why I’m not even worried about every scene.” Ms. Hazon said. “Anyways, I had a zoom meeting to attend so, I’ll leave you here to them for now.” She said and Brianne nodded smiling and thank her again before she walk out.
“Bri!” Someone call her from behind that made her turn around with a little frown In between her eyebrows but quickly went away as she saw her manager running towards her with a bag hanging on her should and a paper bag in her hand.
“Hey, what’s wrong?” she asks as Clea reaches her. “What’s with the bag and paper bag?” she asks her and quickly and mischievous smile arose from the manager’s corner lips.
“It was for you” Clea answered and handed her the paper bag.
“Food? Did you order this? Thank you.” Brianne said smiling and she look inside the paper bag.
“Me? No, because there is already food for you in your dressing room. That’s is sent by someone,” Clea said smiling uncontrollably.
“Someone? Who?” Brianne asks.
“Well, he asks not to be named,” Clea said that making Brianne frown in confusion.
“Manager Clea?” Brianne called her with a tone of warning in her voice.
“Sorry, I'm good with promises. Bye, see you in the dressing room, I will just get you a fruit juice.” Clea said and turn around and walk away, but she stops before she could go further and looked back at Brianne and spoke again. “Make sure to enjoy every bit of that, I think it was delivered with love and care,” she remarked and laughed and start to walk away so fast.
“What?” confused Brianne asked as she watches her leave leaving her dumbfounded.

“Don’t you know how to knock?” Nicholas said as soon as his door opens making the person stepping inside his office stunned.
“Damn, what’s with the grumpiness man?” Noah Lancer asks as he closes the door behind him.
“I don’t have time for you bullshit Lancer, I’m busy,” Nicholas said while scanning the papers in front of her.
“Woah, For your information I’m busy as well and I have important things to do you know?” Noah said but Nicholas didn’t even spare him a glance and focus on what he is doing. “But because I’m a good friend I came here to bring you your present.” He added as he place medium size of a box on top of Nicholas's table.
“I don’t need it, get lost and bring that with you.” He said as he sign a paper.
“It wasn’t from me, fucker.” Noah said and sat down on the chair for guests inside Nicholas's office.
“Good, but I’m still not interested. Go away and throw it on your way out.” He said but Nicholas didn’t even move an inch in his position which made Nicholas annoyed and look at him. “I have a lot more important things to do rather than opening a present Lancer, so, get out,” Nicholas said as removed his eyeglasses and was about to stand up when Noah spoke again.
“It’s from a person from the past, it’s from Sandra,” Noah said that making Nicholas look at him for a couple of seconds before speaking.
“Then you should have known better than to bring it here,” Nicholas said grabbing the box as he stood up and throw it to Noah that is sitting comfortably.
“I tried to tell her you won’t accept it but she is too stubborn to listen, I know you won’t like it but I still don’t have the last say if I should throw it away and it’s not for me.” Noah reminded him.
“I don’t need that, and I wouldn’t need anything from her. So, tell her to stop because everything she will give will just have the same destination and that will be in the trash.” Nicholas said as she walk towards his drawer.
“She said she wants to talk to you to clear things up about what happened,” Noah said.
Nicholas turn to him and spoke “Everything is already clear to me and I’m sure it is much clearer to her on what happens then.” he said as she walk to his desk and sat on his swivel chair. “I don’t want anything to do with her, I don’t hear more lies from her. So, if she asks you to give me anything from her don’t even think of bringing it to me, I’m not interested in anything from her,” he added.
“I understand,” Noah answered. “By the way, I will bring someone out with me to have lunch. Thanks,” he said standing up and walking towards the door.
“I didn’t give my permission,” Nicholas said with his poker face on.
“I didn’t ask for it,” Noah answered as he close the door as went out not waiting for Nicholas's response again.
But as soon as the door closed Nicholas press the phone on his desk and spoke.
“Hans, come inside,” he said and just after a few seconds the door opens, and the hand walked in shutting the door behind him.
“Fuck you, Leone,” Noah said when the door crack open a little and his head peaked in and immediately leave too.

Brianne is in front of her vanity inside her dressing room when she heard a knock on the door and the door opens a little.
“Ms. Raye, the director asks if you are ready for the next scene to shoot?” The staff asks.
Brianne smiled and nodded her head. “Yes, I’ll be there.” She answered and the staff smiled and nodded her head and left.
“Okay, I’m done,” Clea said getting going out of the curtain.
“Great, the staff also said that we have to go out now,” Brianne said as she grab the bag for her things.
“Okay, let’s go,” Clea said taking the bag from her and they both walk out of the dressing room.
The two talk as they walk to the location of the scene they’re about to take laughing as Clea keeps complaining about her pants that got ripped earlier. When Brianne suddenly slows down as she recognizes a familiar voice that made her frown and look in the direction ahead of them.
“Come on director, My Sabrina is much capable and talented why not just cast her?” The familiar voice said. “If you agree I will make sure to provide more funding for this project and for your other future project, you’re a very talented writer and director I guess you won’t let this opportunity go right?” the person added.
“Sorry sir, but I’ve already decided who will be the actress and actor in my project. And yes that is a great offer but we have enough funds for our project and one more and I’m sure that the actress that we take is much talented and hard-working.” Director Hazon said smiling at the person. “Oh, there is my very talented and beautiful actress! Ms. Raye, please come here,” she added as she called for Brianne that is standing from a distance.
“Do you want to go back to the dressing room? You can go, I’ll just explain something to them.” Clea offered but Brianne didn’t move an inch and just continue to stare at the person who is standing beside the director.
“No, I’m done running away. I will not let him take something this important from me again, he already made me suffer so much. He is the one who should be running away, not me.” She said and Clea couldn’t help but smile with pride in her eyes as she look at her.
“Okay, then shall we?” Clea asks and Brianne took a deep breath and nodded.
Third Person POV “Ms. Raye, how have you been? It’s been a long time isn’t it?” The old man standing beside the Director said with a wicked smile displayed on the corner of his lips. Brianne stared at him and look at Ms, Hazon, and smiled before looking at the old man again and smiling. “Sorry, but do I know you?” he said that making the Director smirk but immediately tried to hide it and cleared her throat. “Oh, I guess you’re a very forgetful young lady. Do you want me to remind you how did we first meet?” The old man asks with a warning in the tone of his voice as he stares at her with his hands on his waist. “Sure sir, I would love to know and I think they would love to know too,” Brianne said bravely looking directly into his eyes. Brianne's heart is pounding so fast in nervousness but she will not let this fear take everything away from her again, this time she will fight for what she deserves. “You’re a very brave girl, very brave aren’t you?” Mr. Lazani said smiling arrog
