Passionate Devotion: Master Fudd's Beloved Wife novel Chapter 1034

The day after Shayne left the film set, everyone in the production crew gossiped about his secret relationship with Yanny.

Several production crew members were whispering to each other in the washroom.

"That Yanny is a nobody in showbiz, but she could get the third female lead role in her first appearance. I knew that there's something fishy about it."

"She's extremely lucky to have caught President Shayne's eye."

"I heard that President Shayne doesn't allow her to be in any kissing scenes. He even got the director and scriptwriter to remove all the kissing scenes from her role."

"Oh my god, this is like a scene from a CEO romance novel. You can really do anything with money!"

"Isn't that so? This series is produced and sponsored by Jinn Group. If President Shayne wants the scenes to be changed, could the director or scriptwriter refuse?"

Clang.

One of the cubicle doors opened. Yanny impassively walked to the tap and washed her hands.

The gossipers immediately clammed up, looked at each other, then sheepishly walked out of the washroom.

Lily walked out of another cubicle and saw Yanny.

She looked at Yanny through the mirror and smiled. "Thanks for helping me out yesterday. I'll have to return the favor."

"Don't mention it."

Lily continued, "Do you know Vivien Reed? She debuted two years ago and was a nobody until she became President Shayne's lover. After that, her popularity rose incredibly. President Shayne spoiled her and gave her everything that she asked for, including the female lead role for a movie nominated for the Oscars. As long as Vivien requested it, President Shayne will give it to her.”

"But then…" Lily pretended to hesitate for a while, then smiled nonchalantly. "No matter how loving they might be, President Shayne can be a heartless person. Once they broke up, he cancelled all of her appearances and endorsement deals. There was even a period when she could not afford to pay for her crew. She was even worse than a third-rated star."

Yanny pressed her lips together and looked at Lily candidly. "What are you trying to say?"

"I'm just telling you that you shouldn't be so smug just because President Shayne has his eye on you. Vivien was much closer to President Shayne, but she got ditched anyway. Look at what happened to her. Who do you think you are?"

Then, Lily grinned smugly for having taught Yanny a life lesson.

"Thank you for your reminder, but I'm not Vivien Reed," Yanny said.

Lily looked at Yanny's back and rolled her eyes. "What are you proud about? You'll eventually end up like Vivien!"

'No, you'll be worse off than Vivien!'

Lily's words continued to ring in Yanny's mind after she left the washroom.

Her words made sense.

As the saying went, "The higher the climb, the harder the fall." Yanny did not know when Shayne would push her off the edge.

She greatly needed Shayne's support. If Shayne ditched her before she achieved what she wanted, she would be left with nothing.

Yanny did her best to learn in the wilderness. Ever since Shayne left the film set that day, he did not contact her.

Yanny did not think too much about it. She thought that Shayne was bored of her.

Judging from past experiences with him, Shayne's interest toward her would flare up for several days, then quickly die down. He would look for her again in another month, perhaps because he became interested in her again.

'Looks like I'm just a servant doing his bidding,' Yanny thought.

It was the end of June when the film shoot in the wilderness ended. It was mid-summer in North City.

Yanny worked outdoors for more than a month, and even did several wired stunt scenes which made her skin slightly tanned.

She had just arrived at home and had not even unpacked her bags when she received a Messenger call from Samantha.

"Are you back from the wilderness, Yanny?"

"Yes, Samantha. What's up?"

Samantha immediately assumed a pitiful tone of voice. "Yanny… well… my end of term exam results aren't that great, and my teacher is requesting a meeting. If my big bro knows that I flunked my exams, he'll definitely spank me and cut my allowance! There won't be anything left of my allowance if this happens!"

Yanny could understand what she was implying, and smiled. "Do you want me to attend the parent-teacher meeting in place of your big bro?"

"Yes, yes! You can pretend that you're my big sis! You're so pretty, just like me. My teacher will definitely think that we're from the same family!"

Yanny was flattered by the brat's silver tongue. "Alright then, but if your big bro finds out, even I can't bear the consequences."

"That won't happen! If you don't tell and I don't tell, the incident will eventually be buried in the sands of time."

Yanny agreed to it. "When is the meeting? Let me wash up a bit."

"It's at two o'clock this afternoon." Samantha added, "Oh, right, sister-in-law, remember to dress up like an adult! Hmm… you need to look like you're together with my big bro."

"…"

'Sister-in-law? Didn't she say just now that I should pretend to be her older sister? How did that change?'

Yanny looked at herself in the mirror and frowned. She was dressed in an orange French style dress with a floral pattern. That did not look mature enough.
