Rember when Asher Land invited her to the Imperial Court Hotel to discuss the matter of City of Desire, he arrogantly said to her, Sophie Smith, you wouldn’t think you can get what you want without giving anything in return, would you?
Back then, she still thought that as long as she worked hard, she could achieve it.
But what he said next completely changed her impression of him.
His exact words were, ’As long as you make sure I have fun, the role is yours. And don’t ask how to make have fun; it’s a physical transaction, you understand?’
Ha, isn’t it just the infamous industry rule?
At that ti, she indeed aid to be a woman who didn’t understand the hidden rules, willing to forgo any role as long as she didn’t sell her body.
But, Asher Land never allowed her to do that.
What he wanted, he never failed to obtain.
...
The enthusiastic applause at the scene pulled Sophie Smith back from her drifting thoughts.
Before Sophie Smith lay many microphones and recording pens. She sat in the middle seat at the long table, reached out to adjust a microphone in front of her, aligning it, and then spoke softly.
"I’m very happy to have the opportunity to return to the entertainnt circle. Undoubtedly, acting is my favorite profession, without exception."
"I’m really grateful to everyone for supporting my coback. I hope to bring more good works to my fans and dia friends who have always supported in the future."
What Sophie said was very official, clearly insufficient to satisfy the dia’s appetite; they weren’t just looking for a few simple phrases.
"Next is the free question session." Sunny’s words had just been spoken when the audience was already in chaos, scrambling to ask questions.
"Miss Smith, what was the reason you chose to retire when your prospects were so bright?"
As expected, this was a question the public was always concerned about.
Sunny also felt uncertain. Sophie rarely attended dia conferences, only participating a few tis for promotional purposes with the crew, and each ti was surrounded by a large group, never standing alone, with all attention focused solely on her.
"Actually, in the heart of an emotional woman, many tis, love can be more important than career. If I must find a reason for my previous decision to retire..." She paused, then looked up, with a warm smile on her lips that carried a comforting warmth, "It would be love."
Upon hearing this answer, everyone’s expressions varied.
So journalists seed to have seen a major headline topic; tomorrow’s news would be secured effortlessly.
Sunny looked at Sophie suspiciously, finding it utterly perplexing based on her understanding of Sophie; this was not at all her usual conduct.
She always disdained speculation, yet today’s words were undoubtedly an invitation for the dia to fabricate stories and write chaotic reports.
However, to be honest, she was rather pleased to see this change in Sophie.
To beco popular, having good looks and acting skills is great, but a bit of hype surely adds icing on the cake.
"Could Miss Smith reveal your boyfriend’s na?"
"Sorry, it’s inconvenient to disclose." Sunny imdiately chid in, trying to close the topic.
"Sister Sunny, it’s alright." Sophie smiled calmly, then continued, "My boyfriend is the third young master of Golden Era Consortium, forrly Asher Land, the executive director of Golden Era in Asia Region."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present could not help but gasp in shock.
