Chapter 34 You Play Dumb
Paula thought about it and felt it must be Viola’s trick. So, she asked instead of answering her
question
“When did you make that decision? Why didn’t I hear anything about this?”
“Ms. Kelsey, why would I inform you of what I do?”
Viola sneered and looked at Paula coldly. “Who do you think you are?”
Paula was stunned. She didn’t expect Viola to argue with her in front of the whole company.
At this moment, everyone turned to look at her and waited for her to make a fool of herself.

She bit the corner of her lips and softened her imposing manner. With an expression of being hurt, she said respectfully, “I’m sorry. I was self-righteous. I thought that you would discuss it with us.”
Paula was weak and cowering, while Viola was arrogant.
It looked like that Viola was bullying Paula.
Paula was pleased with herself.
You want to fight against me?
Viola, you are too young!
Russell tapped the table with his knuckles. He looked displeased. “The director has the right to make her own decisions. There is no need to make a fuss over it.”
“Yes, Mr. McGraw.”
Paula had an awkward expression on her face and could only sit back down.
Viola stared at her and continued, “But since you asked, Ms. Kelsey, I’ll tell you. Just yesterday morning, Glory Group and I decided on the cast.”
What?
Paula was stunned.
I talked about Glory Group with Viola yesterday afternoon. But Viola had already done it in the
morning…
Since they had already decided it, why did she agree to attend last night’s dinner?
Paula stared at her in disbelief,
So, she did it intentionally?
Did she send Rodrigo and Jagger to jail?
Looking at Viola’s ridiculously beautiful face, Paula felt a chill down her spine.
But a moment later, she rejected the idea.
How could a little girl, who had yet to experience the world, have such deep thoughts and shrewdness?
Right!
Coincidence, it must be a coincidence!
At the bottom of the long table, Paula pinched her palms hard with her long nails to calm herself down.
Paula did not make any more comments, and the meeting continued.
Viola continued to talk about the work plans for the future.
“The overall planning remains the same for now. The endorsement and variety shows about the actors will continue to be carried out.”
People present had no objections.
Viola continued, “Lastly, I want to mention the group of trainees that the company developed
before. Most of these children are young and inexperienced. We can organize a talent show. We can invite other companies to participate. Seven trainees will be selected from a hundred people, and they will form a group and get professional training. At the same time, they can gain some
experience.”
“Wait a minute. I have an objection!”
Paula raised her hand and stood up again. “Ms. Zumthor, organizing a talent show is no small matter. This proposal seems to have exceeded your scope of work. Moreover, there is no good market for talent shows in our country. If we suffer a loss because of this…”
As she spoke, she saw Viola furrowing her brows, her slender hand gently fanning her nose.
“Ms. Kelsey, are you drunk?”
“I didn’t.” Paula looked confused.
“You didn’t?” Viola smiled. “Then you should know you have no right to oppose me.”
Many employees snickered.
The employees sitting next to Paula covered their noses and silently distanced themselves from
het.
