Chapter 26
Natalie glanced at the pink diamond adorning her neck, her expression as serene as ever, without uttering a single word.
The receptionist, sensing an awkward vibe, quickly chimed in, “Gracia, this lady is referred by a director from abroad for an audition. If she’s not to your liking…”
“Referred for an audition?” Gracia couldn’t help but curl her lips into a faint smirk.
“Some no–name international college dares to send candidates to your company? And who knows what they traded for this recommendation? Has Global Entertainment Group’s bar dropped this low? Isn’t that embarrassing?” she articulated softly.
With that, she took the recommendation letter from the receptionist, crumpled it methodically, and tossed it into the nearest wastebasket.
“In my opinion, there is a shortage of places to clean the toilet. Why don’t I help introduce it?”
The staff didn’t know how they provoked Gracia, who had always been good–natured. Guess she was in a bad mood because of the bad comments that suddenly appeared on the hot search, so they were too scared to say a word and didn’t dare to stop.
“If good looks were all it took to act, wouldn’t that be unfair to the truly talented?” Gracia then turned to the few staff nearby, her voice still soft.
“Yes, of course!” the staff members hurriedly agreed.
Gracia allowed a small smile to grace her lips, peering through the crowd at Natalie with a look of challenge that only Natalie could decipher.
Natalie met her gaze indifferently, watching Gracia walk gracefully toward the distant elevator, a silent chuckle escaping her lips. She then turned and made her way to a secluded corner, approaching an elevator that required fingerprint access. She pressed her finger to the scanner and hit the button to go up.
As soon as she stepped inside, the elevator’s screen lit up. Gavin’s fave appeared on the screen, “Natalie, what brings you here? Why didn’t you give me a heads–up?”
Natalie, one of the five shadow stakeholders behind Global Entertainment, was being turned away at her company’s door. If word got out, it would be a laughingstock!
