“Manager Nathan, why did Rose leave?” Lily asked, looking concerned. 

Nathan smirked, “Leave? She didn’t leave. She just wasn’t feeling well and had to go.” 

“Really?” Mia teased. “I thought she ran away after seeing my Lily…” 

Nathan chuckled, “She’s Rose’s sister, Miss Mia. Why would she run off after seeing her own sister?” 

Mia shrugged with a sly smile. “Maybe she has some deep secrets she’s afraid will come out…”

Nathan’s expression changed slightly. Did that orphan say something to Mia? She thought, her fingers clenching tightly. She couldn’t believe that the person she had always been able to control would talk back like this. 

Nathan knew the dynamics of the Miller Family well, and she had enjoyed being part of it for so long. But now, she wasn’t sure what had gotten into Lily to make her act like this. 

Noticing Nathan’s uneasy expression, Mia smirked. “Manager Nathan, why are you so tense? I was just joking!” 

Nathan forced a smile and then turned to Lily. “Can I speak to you alone for a moment?” 

Before Lily could respond, Mia interrupted. “What is it that Manager Nathan can’t say in front of me? I’m your artist’s agent after all.” 

Nathan, trying to remain polite, smiled thinly. “Miss Mia, it’s just a personal conversation. I hope you don’t mind.” 

But Mia wasn’t having it. “I do mind.” 

Lily smiled reassuringly at Mia. “It’s okay, Sister Mia. I’ll be fine.” 

“Are you sure?” Mia asked, her gaze flickering to Nathan. Lily nodded. 

“Yes, I’m sure. Don’t worry.” 

“Alright then.” Mia reluctantly agreed and stepped aside, watching as Lily followed Nathan to a quiet corner. 

Once they were alone, Nathan’s tone became sharp. “Lily, why did you do this?” 

Lily feigned innocence. “Manager Nathan, what do you mean? What did I do?” 

“You know how much Rose wants to be an actress. It’s her dream! Why are you taking it away from her? She was devastated when she saw you on the red carpet. As her older sister, why would you do this to her?” Nathan asked, her voice accusing. 

Lily crossed her arms, an unreadable expression on her face. “Manager Nathan, are you saying that I don’t have the right to dream? Shouldn’t my younger sister be happy for me? It’s my life, and I deserve to pursue my own dreams too.” 

Nathan paused, taken aback by Lily’s response. After a moment, she asked, “But you were fine with being a stand–in for Rose. Why the sudden change? Did she do something to hurt you?”

follow my own path and achieve my dreams. What’s wrong with that?” 

Finished 

“Wrong? Everything is wrong with it!” Nathan wanted to shout, but she held herself back. She knew how talented Lily was as an actress. Rose, on the other hand, didn’t compare. At first, Nathan had been okay with Lily substituting for Rose, but now, if Lily kept pushing for the spotlight, it could ruin everything for Rose. As her manager, she couldn’t let that happen. 

Nathan knew that if Rose’s career fell apart, hers would too. She had to stop Lily, or else her own life might be in jeopardy. 

“As her older sister, shouldn’t you be helping Rose with her career?” Nathan demanded. 

Lily raised an eyebrow. “Manager Nathan, I have helped her, many times. But I am her sister, not her servant. I hope you understand that.” 

Nathan hesitated, but Lily continued, her voice firm. “I’m going to be an actress, and no one can stop me. As a manager, your job is to train your artist so well that you don’t need to rely on substitutes. Rose needs to work hard for her own career.” 

She took a step back, ready to leave. “Manager Nathan, I hope you understand me. I have to go now. Goodbye.” 

As Lily walked away, Nathan clenched her teeth, a dark look crossing her face. She had to act. She couldn’t just stand by and let Lily interfere with her artist’s career. Something needed to be done. 

“Are you alright?” Mia asked when she saw Lily Casey ng toward her. 

“Everything’s fine, Sister Mia,” Lily replied, looking around nervously. She grabbed Mia’s hand and started walking quickly toward their car. “Let’s go.” 

“Why are you in such a hurry, Lily? Did something happen?” Mia asked, noticing how fast Lily was moving. She looked like she was running from something. 

“Sister Mia, if we don’t leave now, something bad is going to happen,” Lily said, her tone serious. 

Mia was confused. “What do you mean? I don’t understand, Lily…”
