Kaitlyn put down the ball of yarn in her hands.“Some time ago, your student wanted to invite you to make another movie. Weren’t you quite interested in it?”
She adjusted her shawl. Age had been kind to her. Her hair might be flecked with white, but her eyes were bright, gentle, and brimming with kindness and serenity.
A touch of heartache and regret hid deep in her eyes.
“Didn’t you say I shouldn’t
accept it?” Everett
teased, raising an eyebrow.
Everett thought, “Why is she so fickle?”
“That was because I was afraid you would be too tired,” said Kaitlyn.
“Why aren’t you afraid of me being tired now?” Everett huffed. His chubby look was comical, not threatening.
“Don’t interrupt.” Kaitlyn glared at him.“I didn’t ask you to accept it now. I just want you to help.”
Then she giggled, “I think you have a say in this. You can recommend Andres for that role. It suits him.”
“Weren’t you just mad at him? And now you’re helping him? You’re stubborn but you’re soft–hearted, right?” Everett happily added another cup of coffee.
He knew Kaitlyn very well.
“I ask you not to interrupt.” Kaitlyn glared Keira. You should also arrange for Keira to be cast.

“You want Keira to follow your path. She can’t be a director yet, but she can be an assistant director. She’s capable. I wouldn’t want her position to be too low either.” Everett sighed slowly, “These two kids…”
He didn’t want to owe anyone a favor, but if Kaitlyn asked him to do so, he had no choice.

more suffocated. After learning he was in a bad mood, Marlee came to keep him company for half a day Seeing the gentle Marlee and recalling the arrogant Keira, he felt even more frustrated. To his surprise, when he went to see Emily the next day, she shut him out. This made him even more annoyed with Keira.
The maid didn’t even open the door. She just said she would pass on the message. Keira really knew how to make him mad.
Andres came for three

days, but Emily
Emily still didn’t see him.
“Ms. Reid said, Alondra is not suitable for this career. Even if she is, Ms. Reid should still step back at this moment.
“She knows what you and Alondra are up to. She’s not stupid, but the Sunshine Theater isn’t her backyard. She can’t just plant any flowers she wants.”

In short, Alondra was useless.
And Andres couldn’t get Alondra into the Sunshine Theater by pulling strings. This remark was like a slap in the face for Andres.
The maid went on,“Ms. Reid said she taught Alondra for a year and a half out of respect for Keira. You don’t appreciate it and bully an orphan girl. She couldn’t bear it and said seek help from Keira, not her.”
Andres felt humiliated, but the last sentence really set him off.
It was indeed because of Keira.

He wondered, “How did Keira make Ms. Reid, who has no connection with her, risk offending me to support her?
really underestimated her. It turns out that Keira has got some tricks up her sleeve!” Andres looked unpleasant.
Marlee came with him today.
She wore a light blue chiffon dress with bubble lace cuffs. Her slightly curled long hair was loose. Her makeup was subtle, even her lipstick was a soft red. She looked pure and sweet. Looking at Andres’s angry face, Marlee felt anxious and puzzled.“How could this happen?” Seeing her frown with worry, Andres couldn’t help but compare her to Keira. He couldn’t get the image of her fierce look during their fight that day out of his mind. Andres wondered when it became like this.
“Did Keira say something to Ms. Reid?” Marlee pretended to look very cautious. She saw Andres suddenly clench his fists and knew she guessed right.
However, she was still a little confused, thinking, “Since Andres personally came to invite Ms Reid, why did she still support Keira?
“What exactly did she do to pull that off?”
Andres’s face turned livid with rage.“This matter is a bit tricky.”
“Andres, why not apologize to Keira? This tension between you isn’t a good thing. If it goes on, it’ll affect your work.”
Admittedly, she really knew what mattered to Andres.
In his mind, Keira was the little cat he had been raising all along, not even a valuable breed. There was no way owners would apologize to their pets.
Andres sneered, “Apologize?”
He thought, “Keira must have had it too easy these past few years, and it has made her a bit naive.
“Does she really think that she can control me with just Ms. Reid?”
As Andres was lost in thought, he got a call from Alondra. She was crying,“Andres, all my classmates know Ms. Reid doesn’t teach me anymore. They’re all making fun of me. What if I can’t get into the Sunshine Theater after graduation? You’ll lose face too. People are already talking about it online. What should I do?”

Andres didn’t expect the news to spread so quickly.
Meru
“Did this news spread so quickly? Is someone deliberately spreading it?” Marlee reminded timely. His face indeed grew colder.
He was even more convinced that this was a despicable trick by Keira to force him to compromise.
Andres hung up the phone directly and went straight to Keira’s place. He knocked on the door for a long time, but still no one answered.
This made him even angrier. Emily shut him out, and Keira kept avoiding him, trying to put him in his place.
He bombarded
several phones, and Keira only answered after a while. to teach Alondra right now, or else…”
Andres threatened, “Let Ms. Reid continue
Keira frowned, “Or else?”
“Do you really think I didn’t know what you did at Mount Foraker a couple of days ago?” asked Andres.
Keira was confused.“Since you knew, why did you call me?”
“Keira, are you really that stubborn? Let me tell you. If you don’t bring back Ms. Reid, there will be no chance between you and me anymore!”
Andres threatened, “I’ve always kept connections for you, but now I’ll take them all back. In this circle, you’ll struggle to get anywhere. If Ms. Reid doesn’t come back, it might affect Alondra’s future, but with me around, she still has options. But you, Keira? Without me,
Keira? Without me, what do you have left?”
He thought, “Does she really think that she can control me with just Ms. Reid? “When I take back all the resources and connections in her hands, Keira will really struggle in the circle, and only then will she realize that she can’t live without me.”
Andres added, “I’ll give you three days to decide. If not, I’ll reveal you’re leaving my team. See if anyone still wants to work with you. Also, think about how my fans will react to you. Will you get the criticism you want?”
Keira listened to his menacing threats. Even though she had told herself many times that she and him were no longer related, a pang still echoed in her heart.
Though she felt quite uncomfortable, she had no urge to cry. Instead, she burst into laughter, “Alright then, I’ll wait and see.”
With that, she immediately hung up on Andres.
