Erin briefly went over what had happened between her and Ivy. But in reality, only she knew how much turmoil it caused her. Both Phoebe and Megan felt that making this decision hadn't been easy for her at all.Erin's relationship with Ivy was independent; there were no binding contracts between them. She could sign with someone new at any time."Ms. Stanton, I don't want to screw you over," Erin said honestly. "If you sign me, your team might have to pay a huge price in PR. I don't know what Ivy might do next, but I'm basically a high-risk artist now. It would be easy for me to blow up into a scandal. I wouldn't be surprised if you decide you don't want to work with me."She was almost overly sincere, but it was that sort of purity—even a trace of naivety—that an actor needed.Phoebe replied, "I promised you that as long as you want it, I'll sign you. The only way this falls through is if you turn me down."Erin looked at her. Her way of speaking and doing things was steady and co

Erin had earlier mentioned that Felicity was in the next room. It was clear that Starplane Entertainment was out to get Atlas Entertainment.This was the first time Phoebe was meeting Felicity in person. She'd seen photos of her before, but actually standing face-to-face with her half-sister felt different. Phoebe had always been the older sister in her life, but now, she suddenly had an older sister of her own.She had already rationalized it in her head, but seeing Felicity in the flesh still stirred up a wave of emotion inside her. She didn't even dare imagine how Flynn would react once he found out.On the surface, Phoebe's expression stayed composed, but her hands hanging at her sides slowly curled into tight fists.Felicity was a little shorter than her, with long, straight hair that fell to her waist, glossy and perfectly styled. She wore a fitted, pale green dress with a subtle vintage cut that matched her gentle demeanor, giving her a quiet, bookish elegance.There wasn't

Phoebe stared at Megan, briefly stunned. The heartache in the latter's eyes was almost tangible, and it made Phoebe's heart clench. She had tried to remain detached, yet Megan's eyes sent a sharp, aching sting through her chest.After a few seconds of silence, Phoebe said, "Megan, don't worry about me. I'm fine. I only found out about this recently, anyway. Honestly, I think the sooner I know, the better. It beats being kept in the dark with no clue what's going on."That only made Megan feel even more protective. Phoebe was clearly the one who needed comforting, yet somehow she was the one doing it.Megan could practically feel the low pressure in the air from the heavy, suffocating tension, yet Phoebe was still acting like nothing was wrong."Phoebe, whatever you're feeling is okay. However you react is normal," Megan said. Being this calm was actually abnormal.Phoebe listened to her gentle voice and dazedly hummed in agreement. Megan glanced at her, then urged the driver, "Let

Phoebe hadn't given Ian any heads-up, so of course Megan didn't say anything, either. Megan just said, "She didn't tell me much. I'm just here to keep her company."Ian fell silent. Meanwhile, Jeremy stared thoughtfully at the lounge door. He glanced at Ian, then at Megan, and finally asked in confusion, "What's going on with Phoebe and Mr. Blackwood?"Megan suddenly said, "Oh, right. Ms. Stanton said she brought me here to meet her boyfriend. Is that the man in the lounge?"Jeremy froze for a second. Then, his face filled with disbelief. Megan noticed his reaction and asked, "He's not?"Jeremy finally understood why Jason had called him a few days ago and blown up at him. He'd been swamped and hadn't had the time to entertain him, of course, but now it all made sense.Phoebe and Gideon were together now? Wait, did they even like each other? How had he completely missed that?His expression turned a little stiff. "I think so?"Megan frowned. "You think? You guys didn't know?"

Phoebe's words sounded very polite on the surface, but every sentence she spoke was loaded with subtext. And no one understood that better than Ian, a sly old fox. Why else would Phoebe have insisted on asking Gideon to come along?Honestly, even if she hadn't brought Gideon to apply extra pressure and had just told him over the phone, there was no way Ian would have stayed idle.Part of it was that he truly saw her as a friend. But on top of that, for as many years as Jacqueline had known Gideon, that was how many years Ian had spent trying to talk sense into her. Even with his good temper, he was really at the end of his rope.Ian was ready to go find Jacqueline immediately. Phoebe told him there was no need to rush, but he couldn't really take his time.Gideon was watching him right there!Before he left, Ian said, "Phoebe, thank you."He knew that if she had stepped in personally, Jacqueline would have paid the price.By bringing up the issue first, Phoebe was, on one hand,
