Chapter 393 Sarah’s Pendant
Michael watched silently from the side, a smile playing at the corners of his lips.
The endorsements he received were all leftovers from others—packaged together at a flat rate, with little profit to show for it.
More importantly, Henry’s foray into such cheap advertisements would likely jeopardize any chance he had of transitioning to more upscale projects in the future.
But no one was going to tell him that.
Seraphina chuckled softly and said, “You should thank Michael; he’s the one nurturing your talent!”
Henry, eager for her attention, replied, “Ms. Dros, how about I take you out for dinner?”
It would be a great opportunity for those paparazis to snag a few shots.
Seraphina shook her head, declining. “I need to take Justin to the set shortly. I’m in a bit of a rush; maybe next time.”
“Set? Is Justin filming something?” Henry exclaimed, both surprised and delighted.
If he could land a role in Justin’s film, it would elevate his status significantly.
Seraphina glanced at Justin and said, “Yes, but it’s still under wraps for now.”
Henry’s face lit up with barely contained excitement. “Could you arrange a part for me?”
To Henry, Seraphina was his benefactor, and Justin was her brother.
They were practically family, so what was the harm in asking for a role?
He didn’t think his request was unreasonable.
Justin remained silent and offered no response.
Michael, too, kept quiet, unsure of how to react.
Seraphina agreed, “Sure, let’s all go together.”
After all, she could achieve that with few words.
Henry nearly leapt to hug her in gratitude, but Seraphina’s cool demeanor held him back. He hesitated, sensing the distance in her expression.
Justin gave no response, nor did Michael.
Everyone knew that landing a minor role was a stroke of luck. If you didn’t fit in, it would likely end up on the cutting room floor.
With Henry’s face, it was unlikely he would be cast in anything other than a role that related to Orion.
As the time approached, they made their way to the set

He fetched fruits and water for Seraphina, constantly checking if she was tired from walking.
Justin and Michael had already arrived in their car.
Henry buzzed with excitement behind her. His benefactor had come personally to support him. Surely he wasn’t far from becoming a leading man.
Michael must have mentioned something to the director because soon after, someone approached him to arrange a role for Henry.
Seraphina was not in a hurry to leave. She settled in a nearby pavilion to watch the commotion.
Suddenly, her gaze caught a familiar figure.
She waved eagerly and called out, “Sarah?”
Sarah glanced back, a hint of surprise crossing her face before she approached in excitement.
“Ms. Dros, aren’t you too busy to be here?”
Seraphina recognized the teasing tone but felt no offense.
“I brought my brother here, and I’ll be leaving soon. What about you?”
Sarah brushed her hair back and gestured towards the actors.
She explained, “One of my staff is here as the art director, and Bruce is playing the third male lead.”
Seraphina understood that Sarah’s company had a wide range of projects. She didn’t dwell on it.
Then, Sarah’s smile faltered slightly.
“Who is that woman next to Justin?”
The woman nestled against Justin, playfully leaning into him. Justin stepped back, affectionately ruffling her hair.
Seraphina glanced over and explained, “Oh, she’s his new girlfriend. I think she’s the second female lead.”
Sarah’s expression shifted through a range of emotions before she settled back into composure. She asked, “Another new girlfriend? Justin really is a charmer, isn’t he?”
“He’s just stirring up some gossip for publicity; it’s all fake,” Seraphina explained.
Sarah smirked slightly, pondering the truth behind those words.
Were they really just for show, or was there something genuine in the pretense?
Anyway, it wasn’t something she should be concerned with.
Just then, the second female lead came rushing over.
She nicked una feather fan from the table

In her haste, she didn’t notice the car keys beside it, which had a teardrop–shaped glass pendant attached.
In an instant, the pendant slipped from her fingers and hit the ground with a sharp clink, shattering into pieces.
Both Sarah and Seraphina’s expressions changed dramatically.
“Hey! Stop there!” Sarah cried out, her heart aching as she picked up the keys and the remnants of the glass pendant, her hands trembling.
Seraphina frowned; that pendant was Sarah’s most treasured possession.
“What are you doing?” Sarah demanded.
The second female lead paused, looking down at the shards with annoyance and indifference.
“I didn’t do it on purpose.”
With that, she turned to walk away.
“Not on purpose, so does that mean it’s okay?” Sarah’s eyes glistened with anger. “It wasn’t intentional, so should I just accept it?”
The second female lead stared at her, taken aback. She asked, “How much is it worth? I’ll have my boyfriend pay for it!”
Seraphina frowned deeper and asked, “Can’t you even offer an apology?”
Upon recognizing Seraphina, the second female lead hesitated, unsure of how to respond directly.
After a moment, she bit her lip, realizing that apologizing wouldn’t be too hard, but Sarah’s confrontational attitude was infuriating.
“Seraphina, you know me; your brother will help me sort this out. You don’t need to interfere.”
Seraphina’s expression darkened, and her voice turned icy.
