Kiss me tender
Chapter 114 (Part Two)

Although they were whispering, their voice was loud enough to be heard by the people around them. So did Melissa.

Melissa felt a little uncomfortable because those people said those words to embarrass her. But she really didn't want them to get what they wanted. So she didn't blush. Instead, she raised her head and gave them a slight smile. The smile was cold and natural, but she looked like the plum blossoms in the cold wind, so arrogant. Then she left with Zack.

Those female stars were stunned. They looked at each other and asked, "What does she mean?" Why is she smiling at us? What does she mean? "I don't know......" "But how can I see her smile so smug and hateful?" "Yes, she disgust me to death. What's the point to be proud of? Bah, it's no big deal!"

Those women swore at her, but Melissa was in a good mood. They said bad words to upset her, but she didn't. On the contrary, she enjoyed it, so that she could piss them off. They weren't able to piss her off! In a good mood, Melissa followed Zack to his office. At that time, it was quiet. No one dared to say anything to her. All they did was to stand around her in silence. They didn't know why she suddenly became famous.

But Melissa didn't expect to see Anna sitting inside when she arrived at the office. Anna stood up when they opened the door. She crossed her arms and stared at them coldly, as if she had been waiting for a long time.

At the sight of Anna, Zack was in a headache and said, "Anna, go out first!"

Anna smiled coldly at Melissa, "You do have some skills." I thought you were willing to admit defeat by letting me endorse Eric's advertisement, but I didn't expect you to use me as a bait to catch the long-term interests. Are you playing a trick? You purposely turned down Eric's advertisement, which annoyed him. In the end, he caught up with you and even said that he wanted to support you! "You are really smart. Well, you have succeeded in taking advantage of me. Are you very happy that you've thoroughly trodden on me?"

Melissa was confused about Anna's anger. Why did she take her as a stepping stone when Eric wanted to support her? She did it out of good will to give her the advertising endorsement? In the end, she got to know that she claimed her kindness to play a trick on Eric in an effort to gain an intimate relationship. It seemed that Anna was distracted by jealousy. She even associated two completely different things.

Melissa understood to those popular stars' attitude. So she didn't mind pissing Anna off any more and said indifferently, "You can think whatever you like. If you really think that I have won over you and took advantage of you, you just flatter me. It means that I'm smarter than you."

"You......" Anna was pissed off. Last night, she and Zack stayed up all night to watch the news about her in the company. The news quickly spread across the major Internet overnight and the click rate was amazingly high. She knew that Melissa had turned red. Even though she had never any work or acted in some movies before, she had really become red, shockingly red. How could she not be angry? She had tried so hard for five years, but she hadn't seen this woman for five years. All because of Eric, she had become famous quickly. The God was unfair to her. How could she not be jealous?

So Anna pointed at Melissa and said, "Melissa, don't be so cocky. You won't be famous forever depending on a man!" I don't believe that you can still control the rest of the entertainment industry even though you don't have any representative in the movie industry! "As time went by, no one would pay attention to the news about you and Eric. Just wait to die!"

Melissa smiled coldly. She wanted to piss Anna off today, so she said calmly, "Anna, don't forget, in terms of acting skill and strength, I'm more talented than you. So if I can take part in the show with Eric, it's possible for me to surpass you!" "But after all these years of hard work, you still easily make me overtake you!"

"Melissa, do you have to be this bitchy?" Anna was furious. She suddenly picked up the hard leather wallet from the table and threw it to her.

But Melissa quickly leaned sideways to dodge her attack. She didn't expect the wallet to be smashed in Zack's face.

Both of them froze. Anna was more shocked, her eyes widened and her mouth gaped. "Ah......" Zack...... "I didn't mean to do that! I didn't mean to hit you!" Anna asked anxiously, wanting to come over to see Zack.

However, Zack was completely angry. He covered his face and shouted at Anna, "Enough!" Get out of here right now! "Disappear in front of me!"

Anna was so angry and sad that she almost cried out, "Zack!"

Zack shouted again, "Get out of here right now before I throw a tantrum."

At this moment, Melissa sneered. She saw snobbery Zack and trouble-making Anna quarreling with each other. It was really an interesting drama.

Anna resentfully gritted her teeth and strode towards the gate. When she passed Melissa, she bent down and picked up her wallet and then she hatefully said to Melissa, "Melissa, you will see. We will not be over soon!"

Melissa shrugged her shoulders. She didn't care about Anna. A woman like her was no match for her.

Then Anna went out, slammed the door and left.

Zack said to Melissa with grinding his teeth and covering his injured face "Sit down!"

Melissa didn't refuse his order and sat down straightforwardly. She remained silent and kept her eyes on Zack. Otherwise, he would feel she was pitying him if she cared about him! Zack said, "You really have a trick! You always piss Anna off every time you come here!"

Melissa said coldly, "Humph, the kind of person like her would have to ask for trouble with herself. Of course I'll help her fulfill her wish!" "Otherwise, she would say that I didn't give her face!" Zack swiped his tears and looked Melissa, "You're getting more and more different from before. You can't take any losses." "Don't you know what others think of you when you look like this?"

Glancing at Melissa, Zack said in a half sarcastic and half disdainful tone, "You're a devil!" "An eye for an eye!"

The corners of Melissa's mouth twitched. She still folded her arms and ignored him. But she was a little sad when she heard what Zack said. Was she really a devil? She just didn't want to get wronged. It had been so many years. She had suffered enough, hadn't she? She endured before only because she was stupid and now she just wanted to protect herself. Maybe in the eyes of others, she became ruthless. She would not let go of anyone who dared to offend her, especially Anna. But since they said so, just let them say it. If women didn't be ruthless, how could they get big in the future? If she were as soft and weak as she used to be, she would have already been trampled to death.

Zack added, "But I'm glad to see you like this. I finally have some artists with hard temper and I'm really proud of you." "Do you know what I felt most sorry for when I cultivated you before?"

Taking a glance at Melissa, Zack finally attracted her attention and he continued, "You're talented and potential. You're a person who has a natural talent for acting and food and you're also very lucky. After you became the female lead for the first time and you were involved with Eric yesterday, you're probably the luckiest person in the entertainment circle. So I believe that you're able to be famous." But you used to be a soft, simple, not ruthless, and not willing to give up your respect to drink with others. This is a very bad. You are like a very good uncut jade, but you don't try it yourself. Who will carve you into a peerless jade if not discovered by a good people? That's why I forced you to drink with others. But you still refused. "Well, now you don't need to be forced by me. I know you still can't give up your pride, but you are much more ruthless than before. As long as you are ferocious and dare to do what you said, nothing is impossible!"

"Zack, what are you talking about?" Asked Melissa, squinting at him.

Zack wiped the blood on his face and said, "You saw it just now. To tell the truth, I'm completely disappointed at Anna. Maybe she couldn't manage to achieve her reputation in this way. Otherwise, she wouldn't remain in her original position for so many years." She has a defect in her character, which is too straight and too stubborn. She is too capricious to fit in the entertainment circle. In this circle, it requires far more intelligent people, such as Junia and Sophia. Therefore, I plan to give up cultivating her! I only say this to you. You don't need to tell her. Provoking her won't do you any good. I believe you won't be as stupid as Anna to build up a furious enemy to get you into trouble, will you? Then I should congratulate you, for I should focus on you next step. With this help of Eric, I believe the company will also pay attention to you. I will tell my superiors about you, package you, and planning developing directions. With this, you will be successful in one go! "You have said that you are more potential than Anna. Don't let me down!"

Melissa looked at Zack indifferently and asked, "Zack, if it weren't for Eric, would you support me?" "Will you give up Anna to support me?"

"What?" Zack was shocked and frowned, "What's the matter? You think too much." First of all, you have met your dear benefactor, Eric. I don't have to answer your questions. The company will certainly give you whatever you want! "Wait here. I'm going to apply the medicine. The top managers will want to see you after ten minutes. Make preparations to let them know your potential!" After he finished speaking, Zack stood up and walked out with his eyebrows twisted in pain.

Sitting quietly in the empty office, Melissa felt that the surroundings quieted down. Her heart gradually calmed down, but she suddenly felt very depressed. She was a popular star now. When the company saw her, they would give her whatever she wanted. At the same time, Zack was willing to give up Anna and train her. But for some reason, she didn't feel at ease or happy at all.

Although she had told herself not to rely on Eric, she had become famous with his help in the end. However, this way was really not what she wanted. What she wanted was to become famous through her own strength. Besides, the way pissed Colin off entirely. She didn't know how to deal with those like Colin.

She couldn't imagine how long her career in the entertainment industry would be?☐☐
