Chapter 2017
"Hey, Isabel!"
She had only just sat down when she heard someone calling her name.
She turned around and saw her friends in the entertainment circle, Triss and Ramona, seated behind her. They were fellow actors, and she had known them since the very first film she was part of four years ago.
They were adapting a certain web novel that was hardly known to the public at all to the big screen. Due to the lack of funding, the crew almost had to call off the project halfway through the filming when Isabel secretly had someone else fund the film to not expose herself. The project ended up being a success after that.
It was a drama with a cast of female leads, which turned out to be her, Triss, and Ramona playing the protagonists. The reception of the film turned out to be great, partly attributed to the remarkable plot, and it took off in the mainstream in no time.
It simultaneously helped her, Triss, and Ramona propel their careers.
Triss and Ramona had started their acting careers earlier than her. Triss was the one who got started earliest, but due to her rejecting the advances of a certain investor, her career never managed to take off. She owed her current fame to the film they shot together back then.
As for Ramona, she was the daughter of a famous director. Her favorable background aside, she was a very gifted actor and had always been favorably rated by moviegoers and casual fans.
Isabel got along very well with them. They helped each other out a few times in the past and had built a good rapport, so their friendship continued even till this stage of their career.
Triss wore her head in a low ponytail and wore a dress that made her look cool and mysterious. As for Ramona, she opted for a bright pink skirt and went for the adorable lolita look instead.
Isabel smiled brightly when she saw them. "When did you two get here?’
Ramona told her, "We got here roughly ten minutes before you. We saw you taking pictures with your fans back there."
Triss added, "We didn’t want to disturb you, so we came in first."
Isabel smiled and did not seem like she had much to say.
Triss was very prideful and held herself to a high standard. Chances were that the reason she chose to not approach Isabel on the red carpet was that she did not want people to accuse her of suckering up to Isabel who was one of the most popular actresses of the day.
"By the way, Isabel, we ran into Isabella just now when we got here. Did you see her?" Ramona asked cautiously.
