Even though Tracy smeared the entire production team, she still refused to leave the crew. She knew that staying was the key to her career development, yet she had not considered that no one in the crew wanted her to stay.
She was starting to regret her actions a bit since she inflicted damage upon herself in the process. No audience would watch the movie if the matter was not resolved to their satisfaction.
After all, who would want to watch a movie made by a whole crew and cast of bullies? There were better ways for the audience to spend their hard-earned money.
"I don't understand how you women think! Do you think I'll still give you any more screen time if I let you stay? Aren't you afraid I'll cut you out entirely?" asked Shaun.
Tracy responded with a smile. "I don't think you will because of your perfectionist tendency. It'll affect the plot and pacing of the entire movie if you cut me out!"
Shaun and the producer stopped smiling. Tracy knew Shaun would second-guess himself.
"What do you want, then?" asked Shaun.
Tracy looked relaxed, thinking she had completely gained the upper hand.
"I don't want much. All I want is to continue being the supporting actress in this movie, and let's just pretend that none of this ever happened. After all, we were working well together, weren't we, Mister Shaun?"
Her words left both Shaun and the producer puzzled. After all, why go through all the trouble of causing a public backlash when the crew had already been treating her with the utmost respect?
Tracy was determined to use this opportunity to demand more screen time than Melody. Shaun and the producer exchanged a glance, understanding the situation.
Most actresses, especially newcomers, tended to be restless and easily obsessed with getting fame. Thus, it was natural that Tracy would be jealous of Melody's high popularity and rapid increase in fans.
However, not everyone could become the next Melody. Not only did Melody have talent, strength, and luck, but also a unique charm and looks, making her one of a kind in the industry. That was why Shaun was so determined to sign Melody.
"To be honest, I don't think there's a better proposal than what I've offered. I mean, what's the point of protecting Melody so much? It's not like it'll bring you any benefit."

The readers' comments on the novel: The Day I Kissed An Older Man
This book is a good book, but it’s too short. I hope it has a part two👍🏾...
This book is getting boring now. I loved Jeremy, Corinne, Sonny and Lucas. The story needs to end. or bring back more of Jeremy, etc....
I haven't skipped any chapter at all. Though the story is good, it keeps going back to base one. I think this has no ending at all and somehow after reading more than 2500 chapters it's kinda tiring already. They have drained all the thrills....
Great writing! I almost cried when Helen hit Melody! So sad! 😭 can’t wait to see how the relationship with her and Lucas develops though. So tired of the repetitive problems with different people....
Yikes my body tenses so much, my moods change as the scenes change. It leaves me wanting to continue reading....
my heart breaks for melody, so many ups and downs, i shed a few tears when lucas walked by melody carrying thalia, and melody stayed quiet while watching them leave. i find myself getting into character as if im one. i dont remember ever feeling like that in any other books. im thankful the 10 chapters/day. waiting for the next 10...
We have updated progress from 7 chapters/day to 10 chapters/day.<3...
i love grandma Beatrice, there needs to me more people like her in the world straight forward and to the point, no beating around the bush and worrying about offending anyone, why pretend to be someone your not....
looking forward to more chapters, The same thing is happening to Melody as what happened to Luna, if Luna was back maybe she would set Lucas straight, can't wait to see how Lucas handles the situations that will arrive. Poor Melody....
ya Lucas pay more attention to Melody lets see what happens waiting for more chapters thanks...
