Chapter 2006

It was a dreamless night.

The next morning, before Isabel’s alarm had even gone off, she received a call from her manager Amanda who

was supposed to still be recovering from her illness. Her shrill voice blasted through the speakers, "Isabel, what

trouble did you get into this time?"

Isabel rubbed her sleepy eyes and asked in a dazed state, ” What happened?"

Amanda said without the least attempt of concealing her anger, "It’s Isabella. She managed to snatch the female

lead role in the show 'Legend of the Goddess'! She also managed to steal the special guest spot on the variety show

I was just talking about with you the other day!"

Isabella was another celebrity who had launched into stardom several years earlier than Isabel. However, ever

Isabel’s first big hit, she had always been more popular than Isabella was.

Both of them were household names in mainstream media. Due to the extreme similarity of their names, people

had always referred to them as the Isabel sisters.

The people in the circle who were in the know were all aware that the two were anything but sisters; they were

rivals.

Isabella’s popularity was trending upward for a while before

Isabel suddenly broke into the scene. Not only did Isabel overtake Isabella out of nowhere, but the unfortunate

likeness of their names meant that most people searching for Isabella online ended up getting redirected to Isabel

who was more popular instead.

Since they were around the same age and starred in the same genres of movies, a narrative eventually formed

around them. People would always compare them to each other which led to a lot of competition.

The entertainment industry was competitive enough as is, so it was not surprising that these circumstances led to

them essentially turning into enemies.

In the past few years, Isabella’s team had tried every trick in the book to sabotage Isabel’s career, all to no avail.

How was it that they suddenly managed to snatch a female lead role and another guest spot right from under her

nose?

"Isabel, are you there? What kind of trouble did you get into?" Amanda asked anxiously when she failed to receive a

response from Isabel.

Isabel’s eyes darkened, and her mind immediately went to what Decker said to her last night.

Both she and Amanda were aware of Isabella having a certain benefactor who put in a lot of effort in boosting her

career. Still, Amanda commanded a lot of respect and influence in the industry, hence there was no chance that

Isabella and the person backing her could manage to pull this feat off.

That was unless there was another more resourceful person involved that was for some reason plotting against her.

By process of elimination, the only person who could fit these criteria was Decker.

"Yeah, you could say that. There's this person I slapped last night," Isabel said without any attempt at deflection to

ease Amanda’s nervous state.

Amanda gasped audibly before asking, "Who did you slap?" "Decker."

"Who is Decker? Why does this name sound so familiar?"

"The Rockwells from Southboro," Isabel clued her in.

Amanda gasped again. "Isabel, are you insane?! Why would you slap him? Even I wouldn't dare to upset someone

of his level. What in the world happened?"

Isabel said calmly, "He was my ex-boyfriend and wanted to take advantage of me, so I slapped him."

Amanda was startled by the candid revelation. "He's your exboyfriend?"

"It was many years ago." Isabel was not in the mood to go into details. She assured Amanda, "Don’t worry. I'll find a

way to deal with this situation."

Amanda asked curiously, "Are you going to see him?"

"No."

"Then, how are you going to deal with it?" Amanda sighed." Forget it. I’ll figure something out."

"No, you're still recovering, aren’t you? Stay at home. I can take care of this." Isabel hung up promptly.

She got out of bed to wash up, then she quickly got dressed before heading out.

As usual, she got into her car and went to the filming set. First things first.

Carla was seated next to her. She was scrolling on her phone and grumbled, "She has the nerve to post about how

she managed to steal your role. How low!"

Isabel glanced at Carla's phone.

It was Isabella's profile. She was quoting an official post from the creators of the show "Legend of the Goddess" and

announcing that she was cast as the female lead. She followed it up with another post along the same lines,

confirming that she was going to join a certain variety show as a guest star.
