Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

There were already many people sitting in the private room. Everyone was chatting happily, and the moment Audrey entered, the atmosphere seemed to instantly turn cold.

“Audrey? You’re here? Come here quickly.” The assistant director, who was sitting at the table, hurriedly waved at her.

Audrey understood and walked towards him.

When she sat down, Audrey realized that many of the people at the same table were unfamiliar faces. Apart from the third female lead and the third male lead, Audrey basically didn’t know anyone…

‘No, there’s another one, Howard.’

Howard sat opposite Audrey. Seeing that she was dressed especially low-key tonight, his eyes couldn’t help but flash with amusement.

Wasn’t this hypocritical woman usually quite licentious behind his back? However, she pretended to be so innocent to the outside world. When he got her tonight, he would see how she would kneel down and beg for mercy…

Howard’s thoughts were written all over his face. Audrey, who was sitting opposite him, saw everything and felt very uncomfortable.

The moment she entered the private room, Audrey had already noticed that someone was staring at her intently. Indeed, the moment she sat down, she saw Howard, that pervert.

Audrey had already guessed that Howard, that bastard, would attend tonight’s gathering, but she never expected him to be unwilling to even hide it. Look, his gaze now felt like he wanted to skin her alive.

Almost everyone in the private room had arrived. Only the seat to Audrey’s right was still empty.

Puzzlement flashed across Audrey’s eyes. The assistant director kindly explained to her, “That’s the investor’s seat for the production team. Wait a moment. He’ll be here in a while.”

As they were talking, they suddenly heard the sound of the door opening. Everyone looked over and saw two middle-aged men with big bellies walking in, followed by a few bodyguards.

“Hey! General Manager Albert, you’re here? Sorry for not coming out to welcome you!” The assistant director was the first to stand up and welcome them. The others also left their seats.

Audrey stood at the side in silence. After the two investors sat down, Audrey wanted to change seats with the assistant director, but the assistant director pushed her gently without batting an eyelid. Audrey could only sit back in her original seat.

What was going on tonight?

Audrey felt increasingly uneasy and repulsed.

Albert sat beside Audrey. He exchanged glances with President Zhao beside him, and their eyes flickered with a malicious smile.

The assistant director first picked up his glass and said that he was very happy to meet the investor tonight. Then, he finished the wine inside. CEO Zhao also said a few symbolic words.

Soon, the atmosphere was stirred up. Everyone started to toast and chat with smiles on their faces.

Albert’s gaze basically landed on Audrey. In her previous life, Audrey had experienced the entertainment industry and knew that she had to say a few beautiful words to make the investors happy.

Originally, she wanted to politely toast Albert, but she didn’t expect Albert to wave his hand and directly signal for his subordinates to bring four or five bottles of wine over.

White wine?

Audrey was taken aback before her heart was filled with boundless disgust and rejection.

The assistant director chimed in, “The general manager is really arrogant. Are you going to get drunk tonight? Hahaha…”

Audrey turned to look at the assistant director, who pursed his lips before looking elsewhere.

That’s indeed the case! Audrey was furious.

No wonder this guy had been tagging her in the group chat and telling her to attend the gathering tonight. It turned out that this drinking party was specially set up for her!

Look at the seat she was sitting in. The investors were already sitting beside her, and they even brought their own drinks. What was the next step? Get her drunk?

Audrey had been in the entertainment industry for so many years in her previous life, so she naturally quickly guessed these people’s dirty thoughts.

It would be fine if it was someone with a background. At the very least, they would not be manipulated by others. However, if it was a newcomer like her who did not have any “backing”, these old foxes who had come prepared would definitely not let her off easily.

So? What’s going on? Audrey was puzzled.

She was still a newbie with no reputation. The production team had only started filming for a few days, but the investors had already targeted her so quickly?

Could it be… Audrey looked suspiciously at Howard, who was sitting opposite her.

Howard looked like he was watching a good show. Seeing that Audrey didn’t look too good, he was very happy.

Little vixen, let’s see where you can run to tonight.

“Audrey, right? I heard that your acting is not bad. You can’t not give me face at tonight’s gathering!” Albert smiled and gestured for his assistant to pour the wine..
