Chapter 90: Teaching
Wesley maintained his silence, which made the onlookers fearful.
They guessed that he might be swayed by familial ties and abandon Sandra.
Yet, as Sandra entered the office, he swiftly instructed, “Those uninvolved, disperse immediately.
The crowd was astonished.
He ignored Hailey’s wrath.
Hailey clutched at her chest.
Her eyes, brimming with indignation, fixed on Wesley.
But her fury was so intense that she could not utter a single word.
Meanwhile, those around her summoned an ambulance out of concern.
Before long, medical personnel escorted away her, and the staff dispersed.
Wesley, as unwavering as ever, did not concede an inch.
Inside the
Inside the office.
Sandra’s demeanor remained unaffected.
She appeared entirely ignorant of Hailey’s affliction.
Wesley was also composed.
Mason could not fathom why.
Observing their calm, he felt an unexpected thrill.
Perhaps he had placed his bets wisely!
“Mason, please state your terms.”
Mason’s conditions were exactly those he had mentioned during the phone call.
His intent to leverage the Cooper Group was to secure compensation for his fans who had received the merchandise.
His fans were hard–won. They were friends who had accompanied him on his journey.
Sandra nodded in agreement. “Your request is reasonable and shall be honored.”
Such a matter was by no means excessive and was easily resolved.
Mason hesitated, “I’ve heard that it is Hailey who actually oversees the garment department” Sandra offered a mild smile. “A simple adjustment of authority within the board meeting will do.”
“Sandra, you are indeed formidable.”
He had underestimated her ability to influence all shareholders and even sway the board meeting. Neither Debra nor Hailey would dare to boast of such influence.
His initial idea thus became firmer.

He stood up and faced Sandra with utmost respect.
“May I request a favor for return, Sandra?”
“Speak.”
Sandra would not hastily commit without first understanding.
Mason rose to his feet.
“In a few days, I have an audition. I hope in the coming days, you could spare some time to guide me in my acting.”
Sandra chuckled. “But I possess no knowledge of the craft.”
Mason’smiled, “You could provide guidance from an audience’s perspective. I am aware of your busy schedule. In return, if the board meeting requires my assistance, I am more than willing to lend a hand.”
Sandra assessed Mason with an enigmatic gaze that continuously scrutinized him.
To be honest, she had seen the audition video. Mason’s acting was nascent.
Though superior to those celebrities who solely relied on their appearance, he still fell short of her expectations.
She pondered for a moment.
I am preoccupied lately, but I can afford you a single day.”
Upon her declaration, Archie was taken aback.
Having worked as an agent for years, this was his first encounter with such an audacious audience.
However, Mason appeared overjoyed,
“I will follow your schedule.”
“I can refer you to a mentor.”
Mason was visibly stunned. “Thanks.”
Archie sneered in contempt.
The industry was replete with acting coaches.
Yet, those with genuine skill were rare.
The only figure of distinguished repute was Rory Gutierrez’s mentor–Lawrence Cruz.
Lawrence, an eminent figure since his youthful debut, remaining unrivaled for many years.
Eventually establishing his own entertainment firm, his proteges were all actors of exceptional calibre.
Rory started as an idol, initially pursuing the path of a pop icon.
Yet, by serendipity, he met Lawrence.
Lawrence saw potential in him and took him under his wing.
A year later, Rory’s new drama series launched, solidifying his acting prowess.
Even now, Rory remained unparalleled in the industry.
Sandra had no way to know Lawrence.
Archie rolled his eyes and reminded Mason, “Mason, you already have numerous mentors, and your

schedule is demanding.”
As a star, proficiency in various arts was fundamental.
Even his chess teacher was a treasured national master.
Thus, for Archie, Sandra’s recommended individual was inconsequential.
Mason, for the first time, defied his agent.
“Let’s postpone the recent lessons. I wish to learn from Sandra.”
Sandra glanced at her wristwatch.
“Good, I have an hour now. Let’s proceed to Lequa Villa
Wesley had been silent throughout, as though affirming Sandra’s decision as his own.
Archie inquired, “Mr. Cooper, will you be with us?”
Wesley’s tone
indifferent. “Of course.”
Archie pressed his temples.
Why are they all holding such faith in a village girl?
Later, they arrived at the Lequa Villa.
Mason handed the script provided by Lisa to Sandra.
“This is the scene I am to perform.”
He explained, “There’s another portion which involves impromptu dialogue.”
Sandra skimmed the script. “Fine, I know how to read.”
The female character within was a formidable force. She was decisive in her actions and radiated a daunting aura.
Archie was dismissive, considering Sandra an emotionless script–reader.
Wesley sat off to the side, his fingertips rhythmically tapping on his thigh.
Sandra smiled, “Mason, shall we begin?”
Then, her temperament transformed.
The woman, moments ago serene, now exuded a chilling aloofness.
Her gaze, cold and lethal, beheld Mason as if peering at the deceased.
A gesture from her appeared to carry the weight of mountains, oppressive and suffocating.
Archie stood dumbstruck.
His scornful expression solidified.
In contrast, Mason felt an ease wash over him. His emotions surged in response, his expressions saturated with conviction.
At the conclusion of the brief performance, Sandra reverted to her usual demeanor.
The intimidating presence that surrounded her vanished, as if its prior existence was an illusion. Mason wiped the perspiration that had formed, admiringly.

Archie approached in disbelief, examining her intently
“Sandra, were your teaching Mason how to act?”
