Mask of the Lustful Wife (Sofia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 185

Chapter 185 Your Sister Seems to Be in Trouble 

Sylvia Grant hadn’t really thought about how much she should get paid, but now that Davian Sanders brought it up, if she was being underpaid, that was a problem. 

She loved money so much that she didn’t even feel bad about tricking Sofia Schneider out of hers. 

But now it was her own money being messed with no way she could stand that! 

Sylvia couldn’t take it. 

Davian got nervous under her stare and realized he had messed up. 

Wiping the sweat off his face, he said, “I just think your acting is really great.” 

Even though acting skills only play a small part in an actor’s pay, he was willing to give Sylvia more. 

Chapter unlocked! 

Besides, with Sylvia’s looks, he was sure she’d become really popular once the show aired. 

By then, her pay wouldn’t be the same as now. 

Sylvia didn’t care what he thought. She wasn’t going to shortchange herself. She planned to ask Curtis Hart about this later. 

The restaurant they were at was called Silver Spoon, opened by a director’s son, and it specialized in seafood, which was said to be amazing. 

Sylvia and Davian worked on the menu together. She wasn’t stingy; since they chose this place, they had to cater to everyone’s tastes. 

Davian was really surprised as Sylvia ordered. 

He thought Sylvia hadn’t been with the crew long enough to know them well, but she seemed to know them perfectly, paying attention to every detail. 

He couldn’t help but like this girl even more. 

This time, it wasn’t because of Sofia, but because of Sylvia herself.

Beautiful, smart, attentive, dedicated… 

Any of these qualities would make him want to praise her.

After ordering, they walked back, and Davian didn’t hold back on the compliments. 

Sylvia smiled and said, “Davian, I’m just doing what I should be doing. No need to exaggerate.” 

“I just regret that if we had met earlier and worked together sooner, my projects would’ve been more perfect,” Davian said. 

He really believed some of his works had flaws. 

Especially one where he never found a lead actress he was happy with and had to settle for someone who was the wrong age. 

Even though that actress did a good job, it didn’t mean Davian was satisfied. 

Sylvia said, “Davian, we were meant to work together now. If we had met a few years earlier, I might not have agreed to act.” 

Davian thought, that made sense. 

He had known Sofia for many years. If Sylvia had wanted to act, Sofia would’ve recommended her long ago. 

They wouldn’t have waited until now. 

As they talked, Sylvia sensed a very hostile stare. 

Without looking directly, she saw a pretty girl glaring at her from the corner of her eye. 

Sylvia 

was sure she didn’t know this girl and hadn’t had any run–ins with her. 

So, to be hated like this, Sylvia knew what was up. 

This girl must be the Sariyah Black Sofia had mentioned. 

She just didn’t expect to run into her here. 

Sariyah was here with her dad to meet a director.

Chapter 185 Vir Sister Seeans to Be in Trauble 

She had no chance with “Flowers,” so she had to find a new gig.

There was another director as famous as Davian in the film city, whose show was filming. 

The actress playing the male lead’s sister had broken her leg at an event, and Sariyah wanted to snag that role. 

Her dad had booked a table at Silver Spoon to talk to the director about replacing that girl. 

Unexpectedly, sherun into the “Flowers” crew dining here and, worse, bumped into Sylvia and Davian. 

Seeing them laughing and talking so happily, Sariyah got even angrier. She couldn’t stand to look at Sylvia Grant and this woman anymore. 

She had made up her mind, convinced that Sylvia had used dirty tricks to steal the role that should’ve been hers. 

Seeing Sylvia and Davian being so close made her even more furious with every glance. 

Sariyah thought for a moment, then turned and walked out. 

She knew she couldn’t get the role back, but she wasn’t going to let them have it easy either! 

She wanted everyone to know how dirty the “Flowers” crew was. 

Sariyah called the marketing accounts her dad owned and arrogantly ordered them to post on Instagram that “Flowers“‘s new lead actress had used dirty tricks to steal the role. 

She even suggested that the original lead, Kassidy Schneider, might have been sabotaged by the new lead actress. 

She didn’t believe that bitch Sylvia could survive the backlash from angry netizens. 

Sylvia had just gotten back to the restaurant when she got a message on her phone. 

It was from Otis Frank: “Sylvia, someone’s slandering you.” 

Sylvia held her phone and didn’t even need to look closely; she already guessed who it was. 

She wasn’t really a celebrity yet, having only recorded one show, HIDE, which hadn’t aired yet, and then there was “Flowers.”

In HIDE, she hadn’t had any conflicts or done anything to make people hate her. 

So, there was only one person who could be behind this. 

It was Sariyah Black. 

Sylvia almost laughed at the girl’s audacity.

She couldn’t understand why someone so young would be so impulsive. Did Sariyah really think this would affect her? 

Sylvia thought for a bit and said, “Don’t worry about it, just let her do it.” 

Since she had decided to try out the celebrity world, she might as well experience what it’s like to be slandered. 

Otis didn’t understand Sylvia’s thinking, but he wouldn’t go against her wishes.
