CEO's Revengeful Queen novel Chapter 42

Giselle explained, "In fact, Annetta also threw out Elizabeth's stuff today. Do you know why Elizabeth did not argue with her?"

Nana shook her head.

"Because Elizabeth does not reside in the dorm. She also understands that untamed rural girls like Annetta are fearless and capable of doing anything. So Elizabeth did not confront her directly but instead used you to make things tough for Annetta. Good for Elizabeth if Annetta decides to leave. If she doesn't leave, it won't have much of an impact on her anyway."

"Elizabeth can do this because she is of a different social status than you," Giselle said. "If you have money, you can opt not to stay in the dormitory. If you have money, you can give people two luxury bags to buy them over. I'm sure you understand this concept."

Giselle put her arms around Lulu and Nana's shoulders and whispered to them, "You are excellent girls, and it is not impossible for you to become someone like Elizabeth. Do you know Infinity Group? The executive director likes pretty girls like you. If you are willing to serve him well, you will not only get all the designer bags your hearts' desire, but all the acting resources will come to you in an endless stream as well. Compared to the other freshmen who can only come to university to learn, who knows, you may already be in an acting crew.

"Just look at your senior, Jessica Jenkins, the campus belle Elizabeth replaced. She comes from a normal household. During her freshman year, she joined Director Gino Ross' acting crew. Although she was only the supporting female lead, she rose to fame thanks to the sponsorship of a wealthy sponsor."

Giselle's offer was tempting. "Now that there is a great opportunity in front of you, you must cherish it."

"Think about it. Come to my office anytime once you have made up your mind."

Giselle was going to depart after saying that, but she came to a halt as she continued, "Not everyone, by the way, has a chance to be picked. 'Lightning does not strike the same place twice,' as the adage goes. Once you've passed up this chance, there may not be another."

After that, she gave them a meaningful look.

After Giselle left, Nana pulled her sister's hand and said, "Is what Miss Long said true? As long as we serve that person well, we can join the acting crew? Lulu, why are we still hesitating? It's such a good opportunity!"

Lulu looked around, dragged Nana into the dorm, and closed the door before saying, "But you know that once we choose this path, there will be no turning back."

Although both of them came from a small place, they were roughly familiar with the unspoken rules of this industry. However, they did not expect to encounter it so soon after they had entered university. 

Nana felt her sister's hesitation. She grabbed Lulu's hand and said, "Lulu, the entertainment industry is like uncharted territory to us who have no special background. No matter how hard we try, or how hard we work, we will never be able to surpass Elizabeth, who is born with all the cards in her favour. Do we want to be suppressed by others for the rest of our lives? Do we want to allow even an ugly creature like Annetta and that saleswoman to climb on our heads?

Lulu suddenly felt a surge of resentment in her heart after hearing what Nana said. Just then, a figure flashed across her mind.

An image of a young, down-to-earth, clean-cut teenager. Leo, her childhood sweetheart who had been kind to her in every way.

Nana's comments were like a parasite, steadily eroding her heart. The distinct face in her imagination gradually got fuzzier and fuzzier...until it had shrunk to the size of a minuscule black dot.

Annetta went directly to the western restaurant opposite the school after leaving the dormitory. From far, she spotted Kevin sitting at a table by the window.

"Uncle Kevin!" Annetta ran over happily.

Kevin immediately stood up and sat her down in her chair. After she was seated, he sat back down and handed the menu to her, "I've already ordered all your favourite dishes. Do you want anything else?"
