Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 175

Chapter 175

“What news?” Stella pressed the corner of her eyes from the strain of reading the script on her phone.

“All of Zeckary’s work had been taken off the shelves. I assumed she was suspended.”

“Who is it?”

“It was the original actress that was supposed to roleplay this role. She’s a pretty famous female artist with many awards under her belt.”

Since Stella signed the contract, Felicity joined the backstage crew’s WhatsApp group. That was how she came across news like Zeckary being signed up for the role before Stella did.

“Why was she suspended?”

“Rumor has it that her stand was questionable regarding a sensitive topic she published. She had eluded to being exposed a few times in the past since those were groundless accusations with no evidence. She was ruined this time because someone dug out her published remark from ten years ago. I’m guessing Daniel knew this right from the start. That’s why she was dropped.”

‘No wonder…

‘Such an important role should not be empty, yet they were finding immediate substitutes at the last minute. I was very unlucky to be picked for this role.’

“This role of yours is popular, and many had their eyes on it. Daniel had received a lot of recommendations when the news of Zeckary’s suspension came out, not knowing that you had already been confirmed by Daniel. That’s why we should stay low-key from now until the end of the shoot to avoid any accidents.”

The previous actor taking the role of the Queen still got blackmailed. Felicity’s worry was not unfounded as things happen in this circle. Daniel, having known of this concern, recruited the lead role secretively. Even when he had done that, the original actor taking on the Queen’s role was still blackmailed.

Having her remark from ten years ago dug up was quite sneaky.

Daniel chose Stella because he had taken a liking to her. On the other hand, it was to infuriate the perpetrator working behind the scenes.

He was indirectly trying to tell that person, “Even if someone was dropped, that role would not be for them.”

That was why Stella, to a certain degree, was unlucky to have been picked for this role.

She may be new and lack any solid background, but that was why it won’t cause a huge fuss if she was messed with.
