Betrayed by Blood: My Second Life as a Queen novel Chapter 331

Why on earth was Willow sitting there? Could she actually be sleeping with the director instead of a random staff member?

Would she whisper poison into his ear to ruin the audition?

On second thought, Silas dismissed the panic. Compared to a random mistress, a top-tier idol like himself obviously brought more commercial value to the table.

No matter how you spun it, she was just someone's plaything. What real power could she wield?

Comforted by his own logic, Silas regained his composure.

Tessa, however, felt incredibly uneasy. Ever since the wedding disaster, every single clash with Willow had ended terribly for her.

Lacking Silas's blind optimism, she kept her lips pressed into a tight, anxious line and covertly sent a text to Sterling Jagger.

Only after hitting send did she finally feel a shred of security.

After all, she and Sterling were business partners now. He would definitely step in to protect her.

The Jagger family wielded absolute power, and Tessa refused to believe Sterling's influence wouldn't hold weight here.

Silas steadied his breathing. "Good morning, directors, producers. I am here to audition for the role of the male lead's counterpart, Gideon Yates..."

Before he could finish, the head director cut him off. "Hold on. We're still waiting for someone."

Silas choked on his words. Annoyed but entirely too afraid to show it, he frowned, wondering exactly who had the kind of leverage to make a room full of esteemed directors wait.

Was it one of the main investors?

His silent frustration lingered for three agonizing minutes before the VIP finally strolled in.

Silas immediately looked toward the door, freezing the second he recognized the face.

Why is it him?!

This was one of the two men who had accompanied Willow outside the police station that day!

Because they had arrived in a standard taxi, Silas had naturally assumed the man was a broke nobody and had hurled quite a few insults his way.

And this was the VIP the director was waiting for?!
