"you slapped me?"the manager questioned her not believing what happened.he thought Mariana was a calm woman who would not react if something was done to her."And I will slap you again if you try rubbish with me"Mariana fired back."Is this how you repay me for the favour I did for you"the manager asked her."Fuck you and your damn favour,so this is the reason you were calling me,if I had known,I wouldn't have come,you are so disgusting,I was wrong,there is no nice person in this world again, people do something for people to get something in return,I am sorry to tell you this but I won't return the favor,I am not one of those actresses that sleep with many influential people so that they will be given a role to play in a movie,I am different,I will never sell myself for anything""You are just deceiving yourself girl,you are no different from them,you are a whore and you will be treated like one,the day you signed to be an actress is the day you signed into the prostitution company,do
