Chapter 637 You'll Be In Trouble
Linda's office.
Leia rushed to her office with her skirt in hand, asking right away, "Linda, how did someone steal my role? Why did the director say that I've been replaced when the drama is about to start filming?"
Linda looked distressed as well. "How do I know? That's the arrangement from the higher-ups. Leia, you've been causing too much trouble lately!
You're too brash..."
God knew she thought her career would soar since she was managing an actress who cfrom a formidable background and status. However, she did not expect that the innocent image she had worked so hard to create for Leia over the years would be ruined by Leia herself. Who could give her an explanation for this?
Leia slammed her hand on Linda's desk and looked at her sarcastically." Brash? I've been low-key enough these days. How am I brash when I've been resting at hfor so long? Linda, have you been slacking off? Look at the roles you've gotten me. They're either annoying second female leads or roles in scheesy intedramas. This is greatly belittling my value. If this goes on, I won’t even be able to keep my place in the B-list, let alone get promoted to the A-list."
Linda's expression immediately changed after hearing Leia's criticism." Leia, you should know better than anyone how I’ve treated you over the years... If I hadn't been cleaning up so many messes behind you, do you think your screen goddess image would've survived all these years? If you hadn't been so arrogant and dramatic lately, would you have been reduced to this? Your reputation has already plummeted. No directors, producers, or investors dare hire you. I even had to shamelessly beg for the small roles you despise, yet you're callinglazy. In that case, you can find another agent."
Leia instantly felt a little guilty when she saw that Linda was mad and serious.
Leia pulled herself together and explained, "Linda, I'm sorry. I was so angry because someone stole my role that I ignored your feelings. I know it's hard for you too. I won't do it again."

The most important thing was that Linda knew her so well that she would never get used to another agent.
Linda's expression softened a little when she heard Leia say this.
She shook her head and reminded her, "Leia, don't you think... the scandals you've been embroiled in these days are rather baffling? The stuhas already issued a statement to clarify that it wasn't you in the video of you seducing the chief physician stago. It's just that the person in the video looks similar to you. As for the newly surfaced negative news, I'm sure someone must be messing with you behind the scenes. I had someone investigate it in secret but we found nothing even after investigating up and down. It's unusual... I've thought about it. It must be because the mastermind has a strong background. Think about it. Have you offended anyone lately?" 'Offended someone?'
To be honest, Leia had offended only a few people, but there were definitely some.
In the entertainment industry, Leia had indeed snatched several famous actresses' roles by using her background, but they had far less powerful backgrounds than her, so they could only endure it when she stole their roles.
Leia could confidently say that no one in the entertainment industry dared to mess with her due to her parents' status.
'If it's no one in the entertainment industry, then it can only be...’
Remembering that she had secretly set up Bianca more than once and Luke’s sinister, cold eyes, as well as the way he had watched with a halfsmile as white snakes bit her after ordering someone to kidnap her...
Leia felt goosebumps all over her.
'Could it be him?'
Leia even took two steps back in terror. Her eyes were wide open as if she was stuck in the horrible memory.
"What’s cover you, Leia?"
Linda worriedly tugged on Leia, only to hear her terrified scream. "Ah!"
Linda was shocked by her scream. She patted Leia on the shoulder, only to see her eyes staring blankly at her, looking resentful and helpless.
"Linda, I know who's messing withbehind the scenes. It must be him. Yes, it must be him!" "Who is it?" Linda had a bad feeling.
"Luke!" Leia said through gritted teeth, "I have a lot of issues with Bianca. I've done sbad things to her. She must have instigated Luke to retaliate against me!"
Linda was stunned when she heard it was Luke.
Then, she said with a headache, "It would be terrible if it’s him. Unless your father does something, we have no other way."
Ashamed, Leia said, "Linda, in this situation... I have a feeling my dad is vaguely against me. Besides, he has never likedworking in show business. I don't think he'll help me. My mom usually dotes on me, but what you don't know is that she still listens to my dad when the chips are down.”
Linda sighed again and hinted to her somewhat intentionally. "Then you should find a backer as strong as Luke. Isn't the Blatt family's third heir interested in you? Leia, you must take advantage of the opportunity, or you'll be in trouble."
Despite her desperate reluctance, Leia still nodded firmly with a gloomy face.

Bianca had only stayed in the hospital for two days before Wanda asked her to go home, saying that the private hospital had a good environment. Plus, it was bad for the pregnant woman and the baby to stay in the hospital for too long.
Finally, she threatened Bianca to go hand rest or she would go on a hunger strike.
Bianca's aunt did not leave her a choice, so she could only consult Luke.
Luke hired two experienced caretakers for Aunt Wanda who took turns to take care of Wanda. Only then did Bianca leave the hospital while feeling relieved.
In the mansion.
The weather was fine and sunny.
Standing in front of the French window, one could see the blue sky and the misty clouds. Everything was so beautiful and dreamy, but Bianca's mood was opposite to the beautiful weather.
"What's on your mind?" Luke closed his laptop and reached from behind to hug Bianca who was looking at the sky as she stood in front of the window.
Bianca frowned. "I'm still worried about Aunt Wanda's illness. She's so sick but still refuses to have the operation." i
Luke hugged her body tighter, his chin resting on her shoulder. His voice was magnetic and deep as he said, "Don't worry. I've contacted the best breast cancer specialist. He'll cto A City in a few days. We'll try to avoid having her go for the operation. If it's necessary, I'll try to have him minimize the trauma. Then maybe Aunt Wanda will be more receptive to the idea."
Bianca nodded gently. "I thank you on behalf of Aunt Wanda." "Silly girl.’ "By the way, Mrs. Norman has been contactingfor the last couple of days. She wantsto design for her company. Besides, she's been acting a little strange towardlately. I don't know if I'm imagining this, but I have a feeling that she's extremely... enthusiastic toward me."
Bianca recalled Queenie's attitude toward her and felt that something was wrong.
