Sofia shook her head in frustration."All I know is that Megan is his wife, and she has suddenly become the woman standing between me and everything I wanted. I don't care how she met him or how long they have been together. What matters is that she has taken my place, and I won't allow her to enjoy it.""Fine," Marcus replied. "But we still need information. If we are going to challenge them, we need to know where they are strong and where they are weak. Otherwise, we might end up giving them another reason to humiliate you."Sofia went quiet for a moment, although her expression showed that she was not entirely satisfied with his response.She had expected Marcus to become angry immediately and start making plans to deal with Ethan and Megan, but instead, he was asking questions and warning her to be careful. She understood that he was trying to think ahead, but the forty-eight-hour deadline was already weighing heavily on her mind."Marcus, please understand me," she said, her voic

Marcus stood up from his chair and began walking towards the window. He had initially thought Sofia was simply upset because she had lost a role, but the more he listened, the clearer it became that the situation was much bigger than that."Something isn't right here," he said slowly. "I know Ethan, and I know the kind of man he used to be. He wasn't someone who could easily influence people like Deborah, so I want to understand what has changed. You said he married an actress, and now that same actress has taken your position. Are you sure this is not just some coincidence?""Marcus, I have already told you that I don't believe in coincidences anymore," Sofia answered. "Ethan was standing there with Megan when I confronted them, and he didn't even look surprised when I accused him of being behind everything. He was so calm that it made me uncomfortable. He simply stood there as if my anger meant nothing to him.""Did he say anything to you?""He didn't need to say much. His wife did

She could not afford to ignore the possibility that he might be hiding something.After standing there for another moment, Sofia quickly reached into her handbag and brought out her phone. She needed to speak with Marcus because he was the only person she could think of who might understand what was happening. She also wanted to tell him everything she had discovered about Ethan, especially the fact that he had married Megan and somehow become connected to Deborah.She searched for Marcus's contact and immediately placed the call against her ear.The phone rang once.Then it rang a second time.Just as she was about to wonder whether he would answer, Marcus picked up."Hello?" he said.Sofia immediately opened her mouth, but before she could explain anything, Marcus spoke again."Well, you don't even need to call me about the contract or the GSK deal. I already know what happened, and I believe congratulations are in order. I heard you were selected for the female lead role, and I kne

Sofia's face tightened, and she looked as though she wanted to interrupt, but Megan was no longer interested in hearing another excuse."I am beginning to understand why things turned out the way they did, because the way you have behaved today has shown me more than enough about your character. You seem to believe that everyone else is responsible for your problems, and you never stop to consider the way your own actions affect the people around you. You look down on others, insult them whenever you feel like it, and then expect them to accept your behavior simply because you are famous."Megan briefly glanced at Ethan before returning her attention to Sofia."You keep attacking him because you cannot accept that he has moved on with his life, but you should understand that your past marriage does not give you the right to control his present. Whatever happened between the two of you is no longer something you can use as an excuse to interfere in his life. He has his own life now, an
