Chapter 112 My Mistake, I Was Naive
While Charlie's entertainment company had yet to establish a subsidiary domestically, Olivia knew that whatever he promised, he would ensure it was kept. As if drained of all strength, Olivia crumpled onto the floor, her eyes vacant as she gazed at Nancy.
A sense of desperation took hold of her, and she was filled with regret.
Why had she insisted on challenging Vivian?
The spectators around her showed no sympathy. In the dog-eat-dog world of entertainment, there were always those ready to build you up or tear you down.
"Olivia really got what she deserved. Of all the people to challenge, she chose Vivian. Didn't she know who Vivian's husband is?"
"Exactly, and her piano skills are far inferior to Vivian's. There are plenty of talents waiting for their chance to shine, no one would risk their capital for an amateur pianist like her." "Absolutely, she brought it upon herself. She set the stakes, who else could she blame for losing?"
Having sufficiently mocked Olivia, the crowd started showering Vivian with praise.
"Vivian, your piano playing is truly enchanting. I was completely captivated. No matter what, I'll secure a ticket for your next concert."
"I've always wanted to attend Vivian's live performance. But it's so hard to get tickets, haha!"
Nancy simply smiled politely at them before excusing herself.
Moving to a corner, she took a deep breath and downed a glass of juice.
Suddenly, she heard Luna's excited voice from behind her. "Vivi, you're quite something!"
Nancy rolled her eyes, placed the glass on the table, and turned to Luna, a sarcastic smile playing on her lips.
"Weren't you just saying Vivian's career was ruined because of me?"
"Ah..."
Luna spat on the ground and slapped her own mouth. "My mistake, I was naive."
She looked up at Nancy, her face even prettier than Vivian's, and her charm growing with each glance. "Heh..."
She glanced around, making sure no one was paying attention to them before she whispered, "Nancy, you're amazing. I didn't expect you to play the piano so well."
Her smile grew wider, "How about it, ever thought of becoming a pianist?"
Nancy looked at Luna's fox-like grin. Could she not guess what Luna was thinking?
She responded with a cold smile, "No thanks."
"Why not?"
Luna seemed anxious. "Nancy, you need money, don't you? If you become a pianist, you can earn as much as Vivian..." She shook her head, correcting herself, "I'll make you more famous than Vivian, and you'll earn even more money!" Such an offer would be hard to resist for most women.
However, after dealing with Luna for a while, Nancy had seen through her. Even Vivian was under Luna's thumb, how could she willingly jump into Luna's trap?
"I can earn my own money, and for now, I have enough."
Nancy didn't want to burn bridges with Luna, so she gently refused her offer and walked towards Charlie.
Luna watched Nancy's retreating figure, a ruthless glint in her eyes...
"Heh... No one I set my sights on has
day,
ever escaped my grasp. Nancy, one y, you'll be begging me to be your manager!"
