Amy’s forehead was beaded with cold sweat. She whispered, “Thank goodness the truth came out, or you might’ve been stuck playing the maid. Honestly, I can barely stand her attitude. I want to smack her!”

Nancy stumbled from the slap and tried to hit back, but the director yelled and cut her off. “What are you doing? Rissa’s intensity

this. You’ll regret it!”
The director just smiled. “Go ahead and try! The breach of contract fee isn’t small.”
With the Holmes family in crisis, they had no energy to deal with Nancy’s drama. She had no choice but to endure several more days of filming, only to end up with barely a few minutes of screen time in the final cut.
And just like that, her dreams of stardom came to an abrupt end.
