Was Chester trying to trick Eliza into taking on such a role?
After all, a young actress like her cared most about her image. Playing the unlikable villain would most likely destroy the reputation that she had built over the years.
However, Chester had left before Shedrick could finish his sentence.
Shedrick had no choice but to shut his mouth, hoping that Eliza would fend for herself.
Meanwhile, Eliza did not hurry to leave after she got into her car.
Seated in the driver’s seat, she flipped open the mirror in the sun visor and stared silently at the familiar yet strange face in the mirror.
Yes, it was strange.
It was strange because the face did not belong to her, but it was familiar because she had inhabited this body for two years.
No one knew that she was Charity instead of Eliza.
When the real Charity jumped into the sea two years ago, a huge wave swept her into the deep sea and killed her.
In her last moments, she was so frustrated and dissatisfied that she could not take revenge on her family’s behalf.
Nevertheless, she could not believe that when she opened her eyes once again, her soul had ended up in Eliza’s body.
Eliza had committed suicide because she could not get over a breakup, yet Charity came back to life with Eliza’s body.
Rebirth was something that Charity had only come across in books. She had never thought that it would happen to her.
She knew that it was not a coincidence.
It was the pendant. Back then, a priest did give Eliza and her a pendant, saying that the two of them were doomed to die early. However, if the two of them carried this pair of pendants with them, one of them might have hope of staying alive.
Throughout these 20 years, she and Eliza had been carrying the pendants with them.
Little did they realize that what the priest said turned out to be true.
Indeed, only she or Eliza could survive.
Therefore, Charity had survived on Eliza’s behalf in the last two years. She had been working hard as an actress to make more money in order to set herself on a firm footing before she could take revenge.
Nevertheless, she did not expect to come across Chester today.
This man was still as disgusting as he was three years ago.
He even gave her hints about his intention of keeping Eliza as her lover.
The second she recalled losing her virginity to this man, she felt like throwing up.
Chester must not have thought that Eliza was actually Charity.
Charity did not understand why he was still concerned about her. Was he not willing to let go of her even after her family was broken and she was dead?
If she were to describe her feelings toward Sarah as bone-deep hatred, then she loathed Chester.
If she had another chance, she wished she had nothing to do with this man. That was why she had been trying hard to hide from him over the past two years, and even so, she still ended up crossing his path.
At this point, all she wanted was to make more money to compensate for the breach of contract and leave Felix Media afterward.
Amid her thoughts, her phone suddenly rang. It was a call from Shedrick. “Eliza, I have good news for you. Young Master Jewell just said that our company owes you, so although you can’t be the female lead, he’ll cast you as the first supporting actress.”
Eliza’s face stiffened. “Are you sure he wants me to be the first supporting actress? Is he trying to take revenge on me?”
Shedrick responded embarrassedly, “Don’t see Young Master Jewell in such a negative light. The first supporting actress’s role is indeed unlikable, but it’s a challenge to your acting skills. Not everyone can manage this role. How about this? I’ll pull some strings with Director Cheever and ask him to adjust your part so that it’s less unlikable. “
“Don’t you know Director Cheever hates actors who change their parts the most?” Eliza said mockingly, “If I do that, Director Cheever will hate me, and he’ll surely make things difficult for me when I join the crew.”
“So what do you want?” Shedrick’s head hurt. ” Young Master Jewell suggested it with the best of intentions.”
“With the best of intentions?” Eliza did not buy that at all. “I’m not going to take it. I won’t act in Director Cheever’s movie.”
“Eliza, don’t bite the hand that feeds you.” Shedrick flew into a fury. “If you reject it, you’ll really offend Young Master Jewell, and he can easily blacklist you.”
Shedrick advised her, “Do your best in the movie, and I’ll strive to get you the best supporting actress award at the end of the year. In fact, the public is more concerned about the actors’ acting skills. If you don’t like Cindy, you can outperform her with your acting.”
A moment later, Eliza had no choice but to reply,”
Okay.”
In that case, she would go ahead and act.
It was merely a movie, and it would only take her one month to play the supporting role.
After leaving Felix Media, Eliza got rid of the paparazzi and switched to another car. She drove to a farmhouse, which was 40 kilometers away.
She got out of the car and entered the farmhouse. A tanned man walked toward her. “Miss Robbins… ” “Where’s he?” Eliza asked.
“In the cellar, as always.”
Eliza took a torchlight and put on a face mask before she headed straight to the cellar.
A man in scruffy clothes was locked up in there. His shirt was so dirty that one could not tell its original color. With injuries all over his body, he curled up in fear.
The man was none other than Thomas Neeson. When he caught sight of the person with the white face mask again, he went insane. ” I beg you to let me go.”
He sank to his knees with a thump. “Miss, no— I mean Madam, please let me go. I beg you.”
He was close to going mad as he had been locked here for almost a month.
After Chester crippled him, he was admitted to the hospital for one week. During that one week, Sarah did not visit him at all.
Then, once he was discharged, he was kidnapped and locked up in here.
This person would show up now and then, and she was the one who left him scarred all over.
“I can’t let you go yet.” Eliza approached him uncannily.
“Who the hell are you?” Trembling, Thomas asked, “Who told you to kidnap me? Was it… Mireya or Cate?”
Eliza smirked. “If you hadn’t been this stupid, you wouldn’t have ended up in this state. You know too much.”
“What do you mean?” Thomas roared, ” Sarah was the one who instructed you, right?”
Eliza kept quiet.
However, the white mask looked intimidating and eerie under the dim lights.
Having been imprisoned in this dark spot for a long time, Thomas was on the brink of breaking down. He bellowed uncontrollably, ” It must be her. It must be her. Ask her to come here. I’m her brother.”
” I’m sure she detests having a brother like you. ” Eliza said unforgivingly, “You disrupted her plans time and time again even though she has advised and warned you before. If you didn’t stir up trouble, she wouldn’t have done this to you. You couldn’t even handle the trivial tasks she asked you to do. “
“My bad. It’s my fault.” After hearing her words, Thomas was even more certain that Sarah was the one who kidnapped him.
He knew better than anyone else that his sister had always been cruel. She had some mysterious people secretly working for her.
“I won’t dare to do it anymore. Tell her that I’ll behave myself in the future.” Thomas said tearfully, “Chester has crippled me down there, and I’m already very pathetic. Considering that I’m his brother, please let me go.”
A glint flashed in Eliza’s eyes.
She did not expect Chester to be the one who crippled Thomas.
Had he not always been protective toward Sarah?
“Unfortunately, you grasped it too late.” Eliza said indifferently, “Nothing in the world can cure regrets. Today might be my last time coming here. Do you know why?”
