Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 581

Chapter 581 

Ashley bit her lip, her voice barely a whisper. “I got it through a director.” 

Debra raised an eyebrow. “You’re still a trainee at Potter Entertainment, and you went behind their back to meet a director? You’re breaking your contract.” 

“I didn’t have a choice. I just want to make it. I want to debut so badly. The director told me this banquet was my chance. He even gave me his card and said he’d recommended me. But I swear, I didn’t know this was what it was about.” 

Ashley had never seen anything like this before. She had no idea that this so–called “opportunity” was nothing more than a hunting ground for businessmen to indulge their desires.

Across the room, Peter and the maids watched anxiously. When they saw Debra and Ashley clink glasses and take a drink, Peter finally exhaled in relief. 

“Go and let Mr. Lowe know the job’s done.” 

“Yes, sir.” 

The maid responded, hurrying upstairs to prepare a room. 

Peter smirked, watching Debra from a distance. “Hah. Thought she’d be harder to deal with. Guess she’s not so smart after all.”
