Transmigrated as The Best Female Character of the Year

”This is such a wonderful surprise.” Melody was thrilled.

”Since everyone’s here, let’s get to work tomorrow before the new show officially starts filming. Once shooting begins, we probably won’t have a spare moment until the end of the year.”

Melody Monroe suddenly extended her hand. ”Thank you, everyone. We’re only going to get better and better from here!”

Keith Coleman placed his hand on top of hers. ”That’s right! Better and better!”

”To a roaring success!” Talia Mercer and Winter Kane added their hands to the pile.

”Yeah!”

...

Melody Monroe had blown up!

In public squares, shopping malls, subways, and airports—her ads were everywhere.

Endorsement deals came rolling in one after another.

On top of that, her new show was in pre-production, and rumor had it that Starfall Investments was backing it.

This meant Starfall was going head-to-head with Stellaris.

Melody Monroe had just broken her contract, and now Starfall was pouring this much money into her new project. Wasn’t that a direct slap in the face to Stellaris?

When Keith Coleman saw this news, he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

’President Fairchild really had it rough.’

’Not only was he left out of the gossip, but even when he managed to force his way into the spotlight to give himself a role, his presence was still so weak! He was investing in a project for his own wife, yet everyone mistook it for a business rivalry.’

’President Fairchild’s life was just too hard.’

’Besides, Melody was in a crucial phase of her career, so it really wasn’t a good time to go public with their relationship.’

’So, President Fairchild could only continue to suffer in silence, playing the part of a secret lover who couldn’t be seen in public.’

...

Rhona Hughes had been keeping a close eye on Melody Monroe. Reading the recent news about her, Rhona’s heart filled with bitterness.

’If Melody keeps up this momentum, how am I supposed to compete with her for the Best Newcomer Award?’

’Raymond Ford has his own hands full now, so I can only rely on myself. I don’t even have a single person to help me strategize!’

’Ever since Rose Shaw became the executive president of Stellaris, a huge portion of the company’s resources has been funneled to newcomers. Wayne Payne and Rose Shaw have bad blood between them, and since I’m with Wayne, I can forget about getting any decent opportunities!’

’But for some reason, President Sterling trusts Rose Shaw completely. He even gave her full authority to handle Melody Monroe’s contract termination!’

’In the end, she actually let Melody get away with paying a mere 500,000 for breach of contract!’

’Because of this, Mrs. Sterling got so angry it nearly compromised her pregnancy. She’s still staying with the Sheffield Family and hasn’t returned.’

”Rhona, you’re up soon. You should go touch up your makeup,” Wendy said, walking in.

”Wendy, what’s the situation with your brother? Have you looked into it? It’s been so long, he should have been released by now, shouldn’t he?”

Wendy paused for a moment before saying slowly, ”He was detained for three months. The time isn’t up yet.”

”Why so long? Go ask if he can be released on bail.”

”I already asked. Bail isn’t an option in his case.” Wendy had no desire for her brother to get out. ’It’s better for him to stay locked up like this. At least,’ she thought, ’I can feel at ease.’

’I don’t have to worry about him getting out and causing more trouble.’

”He’s your brother! How can you be so unconcerned? Aren’t you worried at all?”

”I... It’s no use even if I am worried,” Wendy said, lowering her head again.

Rhona Hughes shot her an angry look and stormed out.

「After a period of waiting.」

Claire Ross’s lawsuit finally went to trial.

That day, many people came to observe the proceedings.

However, Raymond Ford, who was supposed to be at the defendant’s table, was a no-show. He had fully entrusted his lawyer to handle the case.

Over the next two hours, Claire Ross presented damning evidence that directly pointed to Raymond Ford as the perpetrator.

On several occasions, Raymond Ford’s lawyer was left speechless.
