Chapter 207 Not So Foolproof

Yara’s palms curled into fists as shock replaced the smile on her face. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

When she snapped back to her senses, she looked at her agent in disbelief. “What’s going on, Ms. Mona? Didn’t you say I’ll be the spokesperson?”

Mona wasn’t looking any better, too. Her eyes appeared as though it was about to pop out of her skull. “I… I don’t know.”

As tears streamed down her cheeks, Yara ran back into her dressing room.

Mona followed right behind. When she entered the room, she quickly shut the door so no one could see Yara’s tantrum.

“Who the hell is Wendy Xander?” she spat through clenched teeth.

“She must be a newbie,” Mona answered. “I’ve never heard her name in the industry before.”

“A newbie without any work under her name dares to steal my place as the spokesperson?” Yara swept her arm across the table and threw all her makeup on the floor before glaring at Mona with boiling hatred. “I told you I can’t play the piano, but you insisted I do! You told me it was a foolproof plan! It’s not so foolproof now, is it?”

Mona was speechless.

“I embarrassed myself in front of everyone! How am I supposed to show my face in public again?” Yara, in her anger, picked up her makeup mirror and threw it at her assistant.

Jeanne tried to dodge when she realized a mirror was heading right for her, but she was too slow. It broke into pieces when it hit her shoulder. “Ouch!”

“What’s with that look?” Yara held her tears back as she pinched her assistant’s chin. “You don’t like it? I’ll have you know, the only reason I allowed you to become my assistant was that you’re obedient! If you look at me like that again, I’ll make sure you won’t be able to stay in Dellmoor!”

Jeanne was so terrified by Yara’s bipolarity that she had trouble breathing.

Even Mona was shocked by how the woman was acting. She was usually a good speaker, but she found herself unable to muster any word at all.

Wendy was invited to stand under the colorful stage light.

While she didn’t have any work under her name in the industry yet, that dance of hers was more than enough to show everyone her experience with the craft, as well as her alluring smile.

If that one dance could mesmerize the audience, there was no doubt in their minds that once she made her official debut, she would become an overnight superstar.

Her talent was undeniable.

Natalie knew Wendy would get nervous, but she believed the latter had the capability to stand her ground.

To her surprise, when she was about to leave, a lot of reporters and fans were waiting for her at the exit.

On the stage earlier, Wendy was the main star while she was just a side character who played the instrument. That much was true.

However, the music she played with the harp had pierced through the sounds of drums and into the hearts of many.

The audience sitting behind a screen didn’t notice she was playing the harp in the background as the camera focused mostly on Wendy. However, everyone who was at the live performance could see her.

They could tell at one glance that the woman who played the harp earlier was the same person playing the piano in the video.

After all, she was wearing the same veil, and her style of playing both instruments was similar. It was as if she was trying to evoke people’s imagination while keeping her identity a mystery.

While Wendy was still going to get the most attention during the night, the mysterious woman who wouldn’t show her face was also getting her time in the spotlight.

The more people gathered around Natalie, the more determined she was to keep her identity hidden.

However, that only served to pique the crowd’s curiosity.

Natalie lowered her head and tried to cover her face. I knew Wendy’s going to have a huge reception, but I didn’t expect so many people are interested in me as well. What do I do? Great, now security guards in their black suits are pouring in as well. This is turning out to be a headache. Will my identity be revealed tonight? I guess I’ll just have to cover my face as long as possible and hope for the best.

Suddenly, a black coat shrouded her head from an unknown direction.
