A Life Debt Repaid novel Chapter 644

In a public makeup room backstage of the shooting room of Actors on Set, the makeup artists chatted with each other as they worked. "Hey, did you guys see him? Mr. Parker, the great director, is here. I didn't believe it when they announced that he would join this show. After all, I've never seen him join any variety show. So, our TV station is quite awesome."

"Yes, I saw him. I walked past from behind him just now. He's so handsome and tall. He'll be very outstanding among the stars. It's a pity that he became a director."

"It's not a pity at all. We won't see so many good films if he's not a director. Not only are his movies and dramas good, but the female stars in his shows are very beautiful too. The people in the field claim that there won't be any ugly women in his shows. He's indeed a lucky star for female celebrities."

"That's right. I saw an actress before, who is a famous star now. She generally looked ordinary, but the audience soon saw how beautiful she was in Mr. Parker's show. She also nearly competed for the best actress because of his movie…"Another makeup artist suddenly stopped talking.

She knew that if she dwelled on that anymore, she would have mentioned that star's name.

The walls had ears. If word got out about that, she would not be able to survive in that field.

However, everyone knew whom she was referring to at such a point—it was Cora.

She could be considered a female star who got famous very fast in recent years. It was said that she had an abundance of resources. Jay made her the heroine in many large films and dramas, and he was set on making her popular.

Of course, it was reasonable that Jay helped her so much, and many people could only endure their jealousy. After all, Cora was born into such a good family.

Cora was the young lady of the Levine family. Although the Levine family readjusted their property because of John's death and they stopped involving themselves in business, they were still considered the richest company in North City. No one company could compare with the Levine family in terms of their property. Someone made a calculation and found that the Levine family wealth would last them for three generations even if they did nothing.

So, the Levine family was not lacking in resources. Besides, Jay was Cora's uncle nominally. Who dared to raise any opinion given that relationship?

"Alas, some people are born to be superior. We can't be jealous of that." Claire Walker, an actress in the public makeup room, made a sentimental remark.

She was a mere walk-on for nearly ten years, and she was never famous.

Now she went to join that show to give herself more chances.

When she heard the makeup artists' chit-chat, she naturally knew that they were talking about Cora, the famous star.

After a brief hesitation, she agreed to it.

She did not know that Jay would join the show too when she signed the contract. Even if she knew that he would join the show beforehand... she might have come. After all, she did not have to hide anymore if she appeared before the public again.

Besides, she felt that they did not hold any grudges against each other. They owed each other nothing, so he did not have to make things difficult for her.

Today was the first show.

She felt great pressure to be one of the actresses who joined the competition in the first show.

The key was that she had left the entertainment industry for three years. She did not practice her acting skills or have any contact with cameras, and she did not know if she would be nervous when she got on the stage.

She had made a few mistakes during the rehearsal the day before.
