NovelsFreeChapter 31 Chapter 31: Sloane's eyes scanned the room before she moved forward, gripping Eric's arm to draw his attention away from Khloe. "Let it go, Eric. Don't waste your breath. Khloe knows exactly what she's doing. She's Karl's woman now, and he won't let anything happen to her." Sloane reminded Eric that Khloe, once cast out by her own family, had used her wits and allure to rise up. Eric remembered how Karl had defended Khloe at the engagement party, and the memory doused any doubts he had like cold water. His face drained of color, and all desire to continue the conversation with Khloe evaporated. "Sloane, you're the lead actress. Go tell the director to have Khloe removed from this production." "Isn't that a bit extreme? Maybe Khloe needs the money." Sloane pretended to care about Khloe's situation, while Eric's face twisted with anger and contempt.

Sloane adopted a false apologetic expression, pretending to be concerned for Khloe. "Sorry, Khloe, but I can't disregard Eric's feelings. Brice, go tell the director to sort out Khloe's payment and move her to another crew." Brice Green, Sloane's assistant, hurried off to pass on the message.
Soon enough, the director arrived, with the producer in tow. People nearby couldn't hide their sympathy and whispers, gossiping as they watched.
"What a shame. This beautiful woman won't be staying." "Really? Doesn't she have Miss Byrd's backing? Sloane is just the lead actress. Can she really have that much sway?" "You don't understand. This production is here because of Sloane. If she speaks, the director has no choice but to listen." The director walked up with a respectful and diligent air, prepared to address them. "Miss Evans..." Don't miss out galSloane stood tall, her chest puffed out with a confident smirk, certain they were there to greet her.
To her surprise, the director brushed past her and offered a polite handshake to Khloe. "Good to see you, Miss Evans." Khloe met the young female director's gaze and responded with grace. "Hello, Miss Foster." Sloane's eyes widened in disbelief as she confronted them. "Alissa, what's going on? My assistant already told you-Khloe should be moved to another crew! Didn't you hear me?" She expected the director to apologize and backtrack immediately. But Alissa Foster, the director, faced Sloane, her expression cold as she began to explain. "Sloane, after careful consideration and unanimous decision by our team, we've agreed that Khloe is a better fit for the lead role." As soon as the director declared Khloe as the new female lead, the set was thrown into turmoil.

"No way! Khloe, how dare you take my role?"
Sloane's polished celebrity persona shattered in an instant. She let out a hysterical scream, her eyes wild and unblinking, fixed on Khloe with a glare so fierce it seemed she could consKhloe entirely.
Meanwhile, Khloe stayed serene, her composure unshaken. Her eyes, beautiful but cold, met Sloane's m frantic gaze as she replied calmly, "Because, quite simply, I'm the better fit." "Better? That's absurd! You're just a nobody! I have eighty million followers!" Sloane snapped back.
"So what? You're a terrible actress; you disrespect the crew; you're constantly late; and you behave like a diva. Why would anyone wanah actress like you?" Tess shot back without hesitation. "Khloe's not only prettier, but she's also a better actress. Your followers can't help you bring a character to life. Replacing you is the crew's way of cutting their losses."
