Chapter 165: Chapter 165: Why Are You So Lucky

Early in the morning, Sophie Smith received a call from Julia Brown, who said that the media blocking the economic company had already dispersed and she could return to work.

Sophie thought nothing of it, leaving Asher Land, who was still sleeping in bed, and rushed to the company.

Hearing the door close, Asher Land finally opened his eyes.

She often told him that she wasn’t his puppet and didn’t want to be controlled by him, so he was now learning to give her the freedom she desired.

In fact, most of the time, his real thought was simply the habit of wanting to keep her by his side.

...

Sophie hadn’t even set foot through the company doors when Julia excitedly came out to greet her.

"Sister Sophie, it feels like it’s been forever since I last saw you."

Indeed, ever since "City of Desire" was released, Sophie hadn’t accepted any scripts or advertisements. Logically, with the success of "City of Desire," it should be the peak of her career, she should rise with the momentum, but she didn’t.

The entertainment industry is a complex place, living in this circle, she felt exhausted both physically and mentally.

Julia explained the company’s upcoming schedule arranged for her. Sophie took a look and found her schedule packed for the next half month.

"Sister Sunny said she’s now looking to fully support you, Sister Sophie. Hazel Quinn has jumped ship, and Sister Anna has been blacklisted. There needs to be a leading lady, right? I believe you’re the next leading lady, Sister Sophie!"

"Her?" Sophie heard a familiar voice and turned around in surprise, only to see Anna’s angry face gradually coming into view.

"People really need self-awareness. Do you think this little sparrow can turn into a phoenix on a high branch?"

Anna’s tone was full of disdain. Sophie didn’t know how much Anna was affected by the recent scandal. She thought Anna would be inconsolable, but Anna now didn’t seem like what she had imagined.

"Sister Anna, Julia was just speaking casually. I am aware of my limitations. Given my qualifications, I’m certainly not fit to be the leading lady." Sophie’s tone was very calm. She didn’t want to have a conflict with Anna.

"No, Sister Sunny really did say that..." Julia glanced cautiously at Anna. Anna had always had a high attitude, even now, maintaining her arrogance. Julia couldn’t stand it, but due to Anna’s shrewd style, Julia’s momentum weakened in front of her and her voice lowered considerably, "In any case, Sister Sophie will definitely be supported."

"Shut up!" Anna lost her temper and splashed the coffee in her hand onto Julia’s clothes.

"Ah!" The coffee was still somewhat hot, and Julia couldn’t help but scream.

"Don’t bully people too much!" Sophie stood protectively in front of Julia, her expression serious. She had shown Anna the minimum respect, yet Anna was ungrateful and deliberately difficult.

"Bully too much? Hah, Sophie, if it weren’t for President Land covering for you, I’ll tell you the truth, I would bully you until you cried and left the entertainment industry!"

Sophie was momentarily stunned but soon regained her usual composure.

"How are you so lucky?" Jealousy in Anna’s eyes intensified, "If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be in this position. But you’re just fine, not only do you have President Land’s affection, but you’re also ready to become a big hit anytime. But don’t worry, the day you lose President Land will be the day you fall from grace."
