?Chapter 120: With me around, it’s hard for you to stand out 2 Chapter 120: With me around, it’s hard for you to stand out 2 Amelia didn’t know how long she had been throwing up—after a while, there was nothing left to vomit, yet the bile kept coming. The feeling was unbearable.
After she finished, she walked up to the mirror in the restroom, her face pale but flushed. She felt a little dizzy.
It was unusual for her to feel this way given her usual tolerance.
As she examined herself, a figure entered the room and looked surprised to see Amelia.
“Ava.”
Hearing her familiar voice, Amelia turned her head and saw Victoria’s face.
“Sis, what a coincidence.”
Victoria walked over and frowned at Amelia’s appearance and the smell of alcohol on her breath.
“How much did you drink?”
Amelia smiled foolishly and shook her head, “Not much, just about half a bottle of whiskey.”
“Are you crazy?” Victoria tried to suppress her scolding tone. “Your body hasn’t fully recovered, and you’re drinking so much alcohol. Are you asking for death?”
“My dear sister!” Amelia pointed at herself and continued, “I am so pretty, and my acting skills aren’t bad either. Why can’t I become famous?”
Victoria comforted her, “You’re just lacking an opportunity; many actors are like that.”
She shook her head and replied, “I don’t just lack opportunities, but whenever I have one, those fuckers try to crush me.”
“What’s Mia Garcia? Her mother is nothing but a mistress who took our family’s belongings, and she shamelessly suppresses me, meddling in every opportunity I have.”
“Sis, do you think I want to drink? These newcomers either turn themselves into whores ready to please investors and directors, or like me, become heavy drinkers—drinking until people are happy and might appreciate your efforts with a role.”
Amelia couldn’t help but burst out laughing while saying this.
“Ava.” Victoria placed her hand on Amelia’s shoulder, patting it gently. “If you’re tired, just focus on your studies. If there’s an opportunity, take it; if not, just wait. Don’t push yourself too hard.”
“I won’t give up. I don’t believe my life will amount to nothing.” Amelia’s red-rimmed eyes brimmed with determination, a sight that broke Victoria’s heart.
At this point, Amelia’s head started to hurt even more.
Noticing her discomfort, Victoria asked, “What’s wrong?”
“My head hurts.” Amelia shook her head vigorously, only to find her vision a bit hazy.
Just as Victoria was about to support her, a girl wearing a tight low-cut red dress walked in. “Ava, everyone’s been waiting for you. Let me take you back.”
She then turned to Victoria, “Thank you, beautiful lady. She’s my classmate.”
Victoria didn’t have a good impression of this girl. She replied coldly, “I’m her sister.”
Hearing this, the girl’s expression changed a little before quickly returning to her sweet smile, “Hi, sister! Everyone calls me Bella.”
“You can go. My sister has me to take care of her; there’s no need to worry.”
“Well…I don’t think that’s a good idea.” Bella glanced at Amelia. “If she doesn’t even say goodbye, I’m afraid she’ll offend those people. It was hard enough for Ava to get this role, and now it might be ruined.”
At the mention of the role, Amelia’s body shuddered, and she seemed to regain her clarity.
