A Film Queen

Chapter 49 Jordan's Favouritism At this moment, the teacher of Class D also received the snotice.

Next to Stephanie's desk, previously occupied by Melanie, was surrounded by another group of girls, showering Stephanie with flattery.

With Melanie no longer present, they finally had the opportunity to get closer to Stephanie.

Most of these girls cfrom ordinary working-class or small business families. They were no match for the wealthy Burnetts. Despite Stephanie being an adopted daughter, being associated with her was still seen as a prestigious opportunity for them.

Therefore, as soon as Melanie departed, they wasted no tin flattering and seeking favour with Stephanie, hoping to bask in the Burnetts' glory, "Wow! Stephanie. I had no idea you were a Level 9 ballet dancer. That's incredible." Yeah, you are sure to be selected "I've heard Mr. Hawkins is quite something. All of the actors under him have succeeded in becoming famous. If you're chosen, you'll be a star in the future." Im envious of you, Stephanie." Listening to the constant stream of flattery, Stephanie's anger towards Milly had subsided significantly.

This was the real her.

Around her should be filled with such admiration and flattery. What was the point of Milly being a good student? If she beca star in the future, Stephanie would still bring glory to the Burnetts. When people talk about the Burnetts, the first they think would be her, Stephanie. By then, Milly would only be fit to be her shoe carrier. Suddenly, a slim girl with glasses asked curiously, "Stephanie, is your sister also auditioning for the ballet dancer role? At the mention of Milly, Stephanie's eyes filled with disgust. "What right does she have to participate...” She abruptly halted.

Suppose Milly couldn't dance and participate in the audition, wouldn't she embarrass herself in front of the director and school leaders? In that case, I indirectly settled the score for the public apology Milly had forcedto make earlier.

With this realisation, a cold smile crept onto her lips, but she quickly masked it. "Seems my sister can dance too. Could you giveanother registration form? I'll sign up for my sister as well." Later that night, at the Burnett family dining table.

Stephanie couldn't contain her excitement.

Sun, 23 Jun Chapter 49 Jordan's Favouritism coming to our school to select ballet dancers. I want to sign up and give it a shot" Although she had already registered, she sought Jordan's approval.

Upon hearing her words, Jordan furrowed his brows, pondered momentarily, and replied, Alan is indeed a reputable director. You can give it a try. But our family is not involved in the entertainment industry, so you must audition independently." In other words, he wouldn't offer any assistance.

Stephanie happily nodded at her brother's approval and exclaimed, "I can handle it alone. I am confident in this role. Don't forget, I have already achieved Level 9 in ballet." As she spoke, she tilted her head, exuding pride and confidence. Undeniably, she bore a resemblance to a proud swan.

Jordan simply responded with a quiet "Hmm" and added, "Make sure it doesn't impact your academics. The college entrance exams are coming up soon." Stephanie obediently nodded, "I understand." Jordan didn't say much more. For now, his approach to his adopted sister was simply one of laissez-faire, with a hint of detachment. As long as she didn't cause any trouble, raising her wouldn't cost much money. After all, he was still the eldest in the Burnett family, and sdignity had to be maintained.

"Milly, have sshrimp. He pushed the peeled shrimp towards Milly.

Milly glanced at the fresh shrimp meat that her brother had pushed over, then looked at the mess she had made of the shrimp in her hand, which was already peeled.

She decisively chose the shrimp that Jordan had peeled.

After all, it was for her, so why not enjoy it? She said with a mischievous smile and sparkling eyes. Thank you, Jordan." Then, she started eating contentedly. Seeing her enjoying the meal, Jordan also felt happy. He gently said, "Take your time. No rush. If you like it, I will peel smore for you." Witnessing this heartwarming scene, Stephanie felt her excellent mood instantly evaporate, feeling irritated to the core.

Jordan used to peel shrimp for her and kindly reminded her to cat more. But ever since Milly arrived, she effortlessly stole Jordan's affection.

This is infuriating! That b*tch! Taking a deep breath to suppress the urge to tear Milly apart, she softly said, "Oh, I just remembered. Milly, I signed you up as well. I noticed the limited number of slots and didn't want you to miss out.

Milly paused her shrimp-eating motion and couldn't help but roll her eyes. Stephanie wasn't worried about her missing out. Instead, she was worried about missing the opportunity to embarrass her.

She had been busy reciting poems all day and hadn't had the chance to ask the teacher for a registration 12:41 Sun, 23 Jun ti Chapter 49 Jordan's Favouritism: form. Stephanie was more proactive than her.

Jordan frowned at Stephanie's words, full of reproach. "Who told you to take matters into your own hands?" Although Stephanie was prepared to be scolded by Jordan, she couldn't help but shiver when she saw his icy gaze. "I was afraid Milly might miss out. That's why I helped." "You!"

Milly quickly stopped the furious Jordan and persuaded, "It's okay, If you've signedup go for it. It's good to gain sexperience. I've never seen what the director's casting process is like." Jordan looked at her with concern. "But this director is too straightforward. I'm afraid you can't handle it.

"Okay, letgo ask your fifth brother, Jonathan. He worked with e.

m this director on a movie before. M Maybe he can put in a good word for you. If not, I can invest in the film. If you want to act, I have ways to get you in." Milly was utterly stunned. Is this what it feels like to be supported by a big shot? "Thank you, but it's not necessary.

On the side, Stephanie clenched the fork in her hand fiercely. Her om fingertips turned white as she squeezed the rosewood fork so hard it looked like it might break. Her eyes were full of jealousy. Why was it that when it cto her, Jordan said the Burnetts couldn't help, but when it cto Milly, he was willing to invest to get her in? Why is Jordan so biased? What does Milly have that I don't? This time, I must dazzle everyone, perform well, and show Jordan who is the one who can bring glory to the Burnetts! 20 A Film Queen of Two Worlds
