Chapter 695
Hearing the news, Chloe’s brows knitted together immediately.
The photography team had been prepping for today’s shoot since the crack of dawn. They were already fed up with
the grind of their daily humdrum work, and now they were even less keen on it. Still, they got the job done.
Turns out they had been working their asses off for nothing.
“Jeanette got stood up?”
Chloe furrowed her brows in thought, then it all clicked. She had been focusing solely on the competition entries
lately and left all the company’s talent affairs to the managers. Only when she occasionally checked Jeanette’s

“Yes, if it wasn’t for Philip being a big shot with killer looks, graceful hands that are pretty as a woman’s, and his
piano skills, no one would want to work with him!” Chloe sighed inwardly. These three qualities were indeed a rare
combination in a person. It was clear that for today’s shoot, there was no one more fitting for the male lead than
Philip
But this Philip…
Chloe pursed her lips and chuckled sarcastically. She had a hunch why he didn’t show up.
He was a man who saw Keira as the goddess of his life, a former suitor turned diehard fan. Now that he had a
chance to stand up for Keira, of course he wouldn’t miss it. He stood up Jeanette and the entire photography team.
Who was he trying to embarrass? Obviously, it was Chloe!
Jeanette was an artist from Pulse Entertainment who then became one of Chloe’s protégés. Chloe helped Jeanette
rise to fame, causing Keira to take a steep fall from grace and become the center of everyone’s attention. Keira
was the object of public scorn. Keira had yet to unleash her anger over the matter.
Now, the time had come.
However, Chloe hadn’t seen Philip’s move coming. He caught her off guard, which was indeed a bit tricky.
“Shh, zip it. Here comes Shawn. Don’t stir up any more trouble.”
Shawn had been in a bad mood and just had a major blowup, which had everyone on edge. Seeing Chloe, his
gloomy expression didn’t lighten up much. Chloe thought for a moment and walked over to Shawn who was fiddling
with his camera on a folding chair. His assistant awkwardly nodded at Chloe. “Hi, Shawn.”
Chloe initiated the greeting.

“Hi”
Chloe smiled slightly, looked around, and then glanced at her watch.
“It’s not practical to keep holding up the shoot like this. Have you thought about finding a replacement, Shawn?”
Shawn had just sat down when he heard Chloe’s suggestion and let out a sarcastic laugh.
“I’ve thought about it, but where should I find someone?”
Shawn’s attitude was somewhat cold. His assistant nervously explained, “Ms. Summers, the thing is, we chose Philip
for a reason. He’s good–looking, skilled, and can play the piano. These are all necessary qualities. Moreover, if the
media found out about a last–minute cast change, it would undoubtedly tarnish the actor’s reputation…” Shawn
suddenly kicked the chair next to him in anger and said…
