Chapter 175

Bradley shook his head and called for a random actor from his crew. “He entered the scene just last
year and hasn’t even graduated. Ask him how much he gets paid.”

Stella felt herself slowly walking into a trap

After a while, Bradley called another person.

She could not deny that she was truly tempted

She knew that Bradley wouldn’t risk ruining his reputation by lying to an amateur like her, but she
couldn’t help but feel like it was a pie in the sky.

“I’m sorry.” If she were to allow Bradley to go on, she felt like she would end up succumbing to the
temptation.

She needed a quiet place to contemplate his offer. “It’s already very late, I really should be heading
home.”

She supposed that Weston was probably no longer in the mood, now that it was already so late.

Stella was dragging her feet in going home also because she was worried about him demanding her to
do something if she went back too early.

Although she knew that there was nothing she could do as long as he demanded for her, she
subconsciously delayed going home as late as she could.

The director knew that she had a mind of her own, and did not continue forcing her for an answer,
which might work against him. Instead, he pulled out a name card and handed it to her. “Add me as a



contact and reach out to me. Oh yes, what’s your name?”

Stella said, “Ella Steele.”

“Ella Steele. Great name.”

He smiled and patted her shoulder, “I know that you probably think I’m trying to sweet talk you into
things, but I mean this from the bottom of my heart: You are very talented, and this is an opportunity of
a lifetime that is being presented to you. Do you know how many women like you fight tooth and nail for
a chance to act in such a role? You should really seize the opportunity that life presents you. For all you
know, it might just change your life!”

He was just delivering heartfelt advice as he usually did, but he did not expect Stella to take it to heart.



She originally began with the intention of avoiding Weston and just trying things out, but at this
moment, Bradley’s words sent ripples across her heart.

She wanted to leave Weston; this was a strong desire she had right from the start.

However, given her current abilities, it would be impossible for her to do so until the day Weston got
tired of her.

He did say that he would let her go once the time was up, but what if he changed his mind when that
day came around? She didn’t want her fate to lie so vulnerably in another person’s hands.

However, she was but a mere dance teacher. No matter how high up the ladder she climbed, she
would never be able to escape from Weston’s hands. The opportunity she was presented with right
now, however, was different…



If she became a public figure, it might make Weston less bold toward her.

Stella left with Ruby, who saw how quiet Stella was and asked, “Mr. Stelle, why didn’t you take them up
on their offer?”

Stella’s thoughts were a mess. “I haven’t thought it through yet.”

She had just arrived at the main entrance with Ruby when someone from inside yelled. It was as if
someone important had come which caused a flurry of excitement.

She subconsciously looked back and heard someone shout, “Mr. Ford is here!”

“Which Mr. Ford?”

“Weston Ford! The boss of Ford Corporation, the one who’s more good-looking than any other male
celebrity!”

“Why is Mr. Ford here?”

“I have no idea. Probably for Guinevere? She’s the female lead of this movie. He might be here to
check up on filming progress?” “I don’t know…”

Stella’s face changed as she halted dead in her tracks.

She turned around and her gaze locked with Weston.

He simply stared at her with an inexplicable expression on his face.
