was in the backstage doing my makeup when my phone rang suddenly.
Seeing it was Orion’s call, my unease grew stronger.
Sorry, I need to take this call. Please wait a moment.”
I apologized to the makeup staff, stood up, and went outside to answer the phone, Mr. Vale.”
Seren, forget about what I said to you just now. You will have your chance next time.”
These words almost caused me to drop my phone.
Mr. Vale, what do you mean by that?” I pressed, eager to get to the bottom of it.
Orion felt a sense of helplessness. He deeply admired my talent and was highly appreciative of my competition entry this time. Trying to console me, he said, ‘Seren, the first prize’s not everything.”
Orion didn’t realize how important that was to me.
I asked in a shaky voice, my emotions on the brink of unraveling, “Mr. Vale, is it because my work isn’t good enough?
“Of course not!” Orion immediately denied it.
Then why?
Due to my intense emotions, my voice became slightly sharper.
Seren, once you get into this field, you’ll see what I mean. Sometimes, money has this overwhelming power that we can’t really fight against.
