Actually Loke didn’t like Layla at all. When he became an exchange student abroad, he left without the slightest bit of attachment to her. "Let’s meet up after I finish handing out the cookies. It’s been a long time since we’ve seen each other. I have so many things to share," Layla said softly. Loke subconsciously glanced at Coco who was walking away and looked at Layla again. "Sure," he agreed. Layla and Loke went for lunch at a restaurant near Studio City.In the private room, Layla smiled at Loke and said, "How many years have you and I not seen each other? It’s been eight years, right? You didn’t contact me anymore after you went abroad. If it wasn’t for me seeing you in the photos of the filming kickoff ceremony of this TV series, I wouldn't have even known that you were back!" "What do you want by sponsoring this TV series under the name of your company?" Loke stared at her and asked. "Didn’t you invest in the TV series too? What about you? What kind of games are you playi

Chapter 2672

Layla’s nails dug into her palms as Loke’s words replayed in her mind. She didn’t understand how Loke had fallen in love with a mediocre woman like Coco. He had been in love with her first! Layla wondered why Coco was always getting in the way. Coco had gotten first place when they entered a comic drawing contest together, and she had only gotten second place. If it wasn't first place, then she would rather have nothing. So, she had withdrawn her comic submission and stopped drawing comics altogether.Drawing comics was just Layla’s hobby, she never wanted to be a cartoonist. Later in university, she had met Coco, who was still drawing comics, and her comics were even published.Seeing her classmates praising Coco’s drawings made Layla mad. So, she wanted to ruin Coco’s life. Things were going according to what Layla had anticipated. Everyone despised Coco at school, and she lost interest in bullying Coco after that. She hadn’t expected Coco to become a cartoonist and even get h

However, Coco looked calm. "You really don't have to tell me all this. I already have a boyfriend. If you want Loke, you can have him all for yourself. I don't like him at all."Layla was stunned. "You have a boyfriend?"Coco chuckled. "Ms. Stone, you wouldn't think that after all these years, I would still like Loke, would you?"Layla's expression changed slightly. She intended to humiliate Coco, but now, it felt like she was the one being humiliated.Just then, Loke came over quickly after seeing them together. "Layla, what do you want with Coco? I've already told you, don't mess with her!" Layla smiled slightly. "I was just saying hello to Coco. What are you afraid of? By the way, Coco told me she has a boyfriend now. Your efforts were in vain, Loke."Loke frowned slightly. "I know she has a boyfriend. So what?"A glint of surprise appeared in Layla's eyes. Coco couldn't be bothered with them and left. Loke wanted to say something to Coco, but Layla was there, so he could only w

"Stop it. What you’re saying is meaningless," Loke cut her off and pried Layla’s arms away from his waist. "I don’t love you now, and I will never love you in the future. You should know what to do, Layla." Over the next few days, nothing happened at the film set. Layla wasn’t there either. Coco continued to visit the set two to three times a week, assisting with the script adaptation.On this particular day, Coco arrived while they were filming a scene involving the supporting actress and the male lead. In one scene, the second female lead encountered the debt collectors in a park. Her father was the one who owed the money, but the debt collectors could only go to her because her father had disappeared. She was supposed to meet the male lead in the park, and just as she was about to greet him, the debt collectors found her and dragged her into a secluded area to beat her up. The male lead, thinking she had stood him up, eventually left in disappointment.This scene was a significan

Although the final decision wasn’t hers to make, all Coco could do was stand firm on her decision. There was a sly glint in Jane’s eyes as she suggested, "It seems that the author insists on having the second female lead beaten up in the bushes. I’ll agree to keep the script as it is only if you play the stunt double." Coco was taken aback. "Huh?""Since you’re so adamant about this scene, why don’t you play the stunt double? We’re about the same size, so you should do just fine," Jane said with a malicious smile."I’m not a professional actress. You can find another stunt double with a similar build," Coco refused."But I want you to do it!" Jane insisted.Everyone could see that Jane was targeting Coco.Tracy, who was on friendly terms with Coco, tried to persuade Jane. "Why do you have to make things difficult for Coco? She’s not a professional actress. She’ll easily get injured in this kind of scene. We will have to shoot the scene again with another person if Coco can’t act wel

The Birch family was one of the most prestigious families in Solaria."Coco is the one who won’t leave Jane alone," Rowan said, hinting at something more.The assistant looked at Rowan puzzledly. "Huh? Coco is just a cartoonist with no apparent background."Rowan flicked his assistant's forehead lightly. "Do you think I gave up a big production to star in this comic adaptation for no reason?" "Wasn't it because the CEO's secretary requested you to take this role?" The assistant’s eyes widened in surprise. "Does this have something to do with Coco?""We'll find out soon," Rowan said with a knowing smile.On the third day of the filming, Coco stayed in her studio to work on her new project. Suddenly, her phone rang. Stella’s anxious voice could be heard as soon as Coco answered the call. "Coco, come to the set immediately." Coco was startled. "What’s wrong?""Several actors are on strike," Stella replied.Coco was stunned, and a wave of unease washed over her. Stella wouldn't call h

Minnie was stunned. She knew that if this issue was posted online, it would only embarrass Coco further. The public wouldn’t be bothered to learn the truth. They would only see what was posted online. Coco entered the meeting room, and all eyes turned toward her."The innocent have nothing to fear. Go ahead and post this incident online if Ms. Harris wants the public to judge it. When the actors go on strike, the ones who suffer are the crew and the investors of this show. Future productions that want to hire you guys will have to think twice. What if you guys suddenly go on a strike again because you don’t like someone from the crew? Who will bear the losses then?" Coco spoke out boldly, addressing all the actors, especially Jane. Casting directors dread actors who cause trouble. Jane’s reputation in the entertainment industry would take a toll if this incident became widely known"Alright, Coco, just apologize to them, and we'll call it a day," Ash said.Minnie quickly defended he

Chapter 2678

Jane hugged Coco as if they had reconciled, but she whispered in Coco’s ear, "See, you have to do what I want. At the end of the day, you’re just a piece of trash." After saying that, Jane stepped back and looked at Coco with a smile. "I'll be looking forward to your performance!"The strike ended after Coco agreed to play the stunt double.Minnie hurriedly pulled Coco aside and asked, "Are you really going to be Jane’s stunt double?""Yes." Coco nodded."But you’re going to get beaten…""It's just a performance, after all. Besides, the staff will set up protective measures," Coco reassured her. "You apologized and agreed to be the stunt double because you didn’t want to get me into trouble, right?" Minnie finally understood Coco’s actions."I'm just afraid that if things blow up, we would have to compensate a huge amount to the crew. It has nothing to do with you!" Coco said nonchalantly.Minnie's eyes were reddish. "Coco, I'm sorry. I thought that having your comic selected for an

Jane frowned at Loke, who was walking toward Coco. She knew that they were schoolmates, and Loke was also one of the investors in this adaptation.Loke ran up to Coco and persuaded her, "Don't act in this scene. I'll talk to Ash." At the company today, he heard that Coco was being forced to play a stunt double in a scene involving a brutal beating, so he rushed over to the film set."Your words won’t help," Coco said. "How will you know unless I try?""Because the situation is beyond our control," Coco said. "Jane was the one who forced me to do it. Ash and Stella could only agree because they don’t want to offend Jane." Or rather, they didn't dare to offend whoever was behind Jane. Coco didn’t know who was behind Jane. She only knew that Jane had a powerful man supporting her, which was why she got such good roles. This TV series was just a stepping stone for her next major role. After pondering momentarily, Loke asked Coco to wait for him before leaving to meet Ash. However, s

Chapter 2680

Coco knew at once that Jane had set her up to humiliate her.Just then, she felt that the extras were ripping her costume. She couldn’t let this go on. Coco mustered up all her strength and kicked one of the extras in the groin.The man let go while howling in pain. Coco seized the opportunity to escape. Just as she got up and took a few steps, someone grabbed her hair and yanked her back.Coco felt like her scalp was being ripped off! She felt an excruciating pain. From the corners of her eye, she saw Loke standing just a few steps away from Ash!He had said that he would talk to Ash and stop her from doing this scene, but he was there watching the whole time. Coco fell to the ground, and the extras began to kick her hard as if they intended to break every bone in her body."Enough! Stop it! They're really kicking Coco, they’re not acting!" Minnie, who was standing a little further away, realized something was wrong and tried to rush forward to help her friend.Alas, she was stop
