Amelia knew full well what Marcelo could do. She was sure he would do anything just to beat her and climb higher.
She even thought he might pressure the theaters into giving Gianna’s movies more time slots or better release slots.
“Don’t worry about the theaters or the schedule. I won’t let the Nygard Group control everything.”
While Amelia was deep in thought, a message from Jeremy popped up on her phone.
After reading it, a faint smile curved on her lips–it was the kind of smile that made her look even more beautiful.
Jeremy really understood her.
He always seemed to show up right when she needed someone the most.
“That’s great. With you backing me up, I can finally take it easy.”
Amelia accepted his help right away, without a hint of guilt or hesitation.
After all, Jeremy was her partner–they worked together and wanted the same things.
Sure, Amelia could handle things alone if she had to.
But if there’s a strong ally offering support, why turn them down? Only a fool would turn that down.
Jeremy was full of surprises–someone people shouldn’t underestimate.
Finally, it was Gianna’s birthday party, just as planned.
Ever since that modelling contest, she felt like her life had only gotten better.
Her acting career was taking off, and even her family was treating her more favorably.
Today was her birthday, and it was the first time she’d ever hosted such a grand party. She was really enjoying all the attention.
Early that morning, she posted on Twitter, and right away, tons of fans flooded her with birthday messages.
Some of her longtime, loyal fans even sent her a bunch of gifts.

But honestly, none of them were worth much, so Gianna just gave them to the cleaning staff and security guards at her company, like she was being kind and generous.
But on Twitter, she acted super friendly and easy to get along with. She posted messages saying how much she appreciated her fans‘ presents.
She even said she would keep every single gift with care.
That kind and humble attitude completely won her fans over.
Since everyone was paying attention, she also took the chance to talk about her new movie that was coming out soon.
Some other famous celebrities who worked with her even sent birthday wishes too.
This time, Gianna was clearly the center of attention.
That night, her birthday party took place on a luxury yacht owned by the Nygard Group.

“Why isn’t she here tonight? Maybe she’s too embarrassed to stand next to Gianna.”
All those socialites and actresses were experts at reading the room.
They were well aware that Gianna was the most favored daughter in the Nygards, so they all tried to stay on her good side.
Gianna said, “Hey, don’t talk like that about Amelia. I invited her too. She must be here somewhere–probably hiding in a corner, I guess.
“Amelia may not be very outstanding or get along with anyone. She likes to keep to herself. But don’t be so harsh on her, okay?”
Still, with everyone praising her, Gianna couldn’t help but feel proud.
She had always been used to making little jabs at Amelia like this.
She kept chatting, but a small, proud smile crept onto her lips, as if she could already imagine Amelia showing up and becoming the joke of the night.
Just then, some noise came from nearby.
Everyone turned their heads, and Gianna’s smile froze in place.
Amelia had arrived. She wore a simple yet elegant black gown, stepping gracefully onto the
deck.
Her quiet, almost magical charm made her stand out from the socialites and actresses who were covered in heavy makeup and shiny clothes.
The lively crowd suddenly fell silent.
People couldn’t take their eyes off her. They were amazed by how stunning she looked.
And Amelia wasn’t alone.
Two other beautiful women followed beside her–one dressed in a flowing sky–blue gown, and the other in a striking wine–red gown.
