Chapter 1301:
But in the end, what was the point?
He still ended up sleeping with Ayla.
Hadley shut her eyes tight. She drew in a long breath, and then slowly let it out. Again. And again. Until her chest
stopped shaking. When she opened her eyes, the fog had cleared.
She stared at her reflection and whispered, “This is good. No more confusion. No more struggle.”
She straightened up, splashed her face clean, and stepped out of the ladies’ room like nothing had happened.
“Chelsey,” she called calmly, “can you get the makeup artist? | need to redo my makeup.”
“Huh?” Chelsey blinked in surprise. “Why is your makeup washed off?”
“It’s nothing... Just call the makeup artist quickly so we don’t delay the shoot.”
“Okay. Got it!” Chelsey didn’t press the matter further and ran off. When she returned, she cback with news

his affair was about to get exposed.
How ridiculous!
“Ayla’s packing her things. If she leaves, what's going to happen to the shoot? Will they recast her? Tsk.
Everything she filmed will have to be redone. Good thing we just started. Hadley, don’t you think something
weird’s going on? Ayla replaced the original actress, and now she’s being booted. Is this skind of power
struggle?”
Before Hadley could respond, the makeup artist walked in.
“I don’t know,” Hadley replied with a light smile. “I need to get my makeup fixed. You go ahead and do what you
have to do.”

“Alright.”
While the makeup artist worked, Hadley’s phone wouldn't stop buzzing.
Call after call. Message after message. All from Eric.
She turned the phone face down on the table. No calls answered. No messages read. No replies sent. Hadley was
letting him go.
