Chapter 26
Natalie glanced at the pink diamond adorning her neck, her expression as serene as ever,
without uttering a single word.
The receptionist, sensing an awkward vibe, quickly chimed in, “Gracia, this lady is referred
by a director from abroad for an audition. If she’s not to your liking…”
“Referred for an audition?” Gracia couldn’t help but curl her lips into a faint smirk.
“Some no–name international college dares to send candidates to your company? And
who knows what they traded for this recommendation? Has Global Entertainment Group’s
bar dropped this low? Isn’t that embarrassing?” she articulated softly.
With that, she took the recommendation letter from the receptionist, crumpled it
methodically, and tossed it into the nearest wastebasket.
“In my opinion, there is a shortage of places to clean the toilet. Why don’t I help introduce
Follow current on NovelEnglish.netit?”
The staff didn’t know how they provoked Gracia, who had always been good–natured.
Guess she was in a bad mood because of the bad comments that suddenly appeared on
the hot search, so they were too scared to say a word and didn’t dare to stop.
“If good looks were all it took to act, wouldn’t that be unfair to the truly talented?” Gracia
then turned to the few staff nearby, her voice still soft.
“Yes, of course!” the staff members hurriedly agreed.
Gracia allowed a small smile to grace her lips, peering through the crowd at Natalie with a
look of challenge that only Natalie could decipher.
Natalie met her gaze indifferently, watching Gracia walk gracefully toward the distant
elevator, a silent chuckle escaping her lips. She then turned and made her way to a
secluded corner, approaching an elevator that required fingerprint access. She pressed
her finger to the scanner and hit the button to go up.
As soon as she stepped inside, the elevator’s screen lit up. Gavin’s fave appeared on the
screen, “Natalie, what brings you here? Why didn’t you give me a heads–up?”
“I just wanted to run a scene with Mr. Miller and play a bit part, nothing major,” Natalie
sighed, responding. “But your receptionist wouldn’t let me see Mr. Miller, and Gracia tore
up my recommendation letter.”
Gavin frowned, knowing full well that if King, the head of Global Entertainment, found out
Natalie had been slighted, there would be hell to pay!
Natalie, one of the five shadow stakeholders behind Global Entertainment, was being
turned away at her company’s door. If word got out, it would be a laughingstock!
Although Natalie had never visited Global Entertainment Group before, she had personally
spent a month designing the code for the company’s unique and state–of–the–art security
system. She knew the building’s layout better than anyone.
To show his gratitude, the Chairman of Global Entertainment Group had given her stocks
Follow current on NovelEnglish.networth nearly a billion dollars at the time, securing her position as one of the top five
stakeholders. And Gavin? He was the Chairman’s very own son.
“Couldn’t you have just dropped my name?” Gavin first gave her a mild reproach.
“A bit player with ties to the CEO? Guess how the media would speculate about our
relationship if that got out,” Natalie countered with an unchanging expression.
Gavin paused, impressed. She was a top–tier hacker with a mind that worked faster than
most.
“I just want to play an ordinary small part in the production, something a little more than
an extra,” Natalie continued calmly.
“I’ll arrange it right away,” Gavin replied with an easy grin.
“Hold on,” Natalie said as he started to leave, stopping him in his tracks, “There are two
more things.”
