If Brenda found out she was gossiping about a fellow dancer, Nigh knew she could get kicked out of the studio. But she was frustrated. Why should I just let Sienna walk all over me? Nina wondered.

Nina decided to keep an eye on Sienna. So, the next time Sienna rushed off after work, Nina followed her quietly.

She trailed behind as Sienna took the bus and switched to the subway. Nina muttered to herself, “I thought she was being kept by some rich guy. Why is she traveling all over the place like this?”

But when Sienna got off the subway, Nina stopped complaining Her blood suddenly boiled with excitement.

Because the place Sienna got off was the film studio. What’s she doing there? Nina thought.

Nina quickly put on her mask and hat, silently following Sienna She watched as Sienna entered a film crew.

Nina didn’t rush, keeping her distance as she waited. Finally, when Sienna came out in costume, Nina pulled out her phone and opened the camera.

“Humph!” Nina sneered. “Sienna, this time, you’re really finished

With a satisfied grin, Nina put her phone away and turned to leave.

“On the set, Sienna found Derek. “Derek, there’s something I need to discuss with you.”

“What is it? Go ahead,” he said.

Sienna explained everything about joining the dance studio. “Right now, I’m struggling to keep up with everything. It’s getting hard to manage, and going forward, I might not be able to handle all the filming.”

After hearing this, Derek looked slightly annoyed. “Sienna, when you first joined the crew, I spoke highly of you to Mr. Carter.

“I know,” Sienna replied apologetically, “I really appreciate you doing that for me.”

If she could, she didn’t want to seem ungrateful. But there were rules at Lightning Dance, Dancers on the job weren’t allowed to take outside gigs, especially not lead dancers like her

Being a lead dancer was like being the cornerstone of the dance studio, similar to being a top celebrity in the entertainmerk world. It came with a lot of attention.

Sienna had originally thought about quitting the acting job altogether, but there were two reasons she hesitated. First, she had signed a contract, and backing out would mean losing money.

Second, Derek had been good to her. It didn’t feel right to just take the opportunity and leave him behind. After considering it several times, she decided to ask if she could cut back on her scenes instead

“Derek, this is my fault,” she said.

Seeing her struggle, Derek softened. “Alright, I’ll try to work with you on that, but there are a few important scenes where you’ll still have to be in. No way around that.”

This wasn’t up for debate. “You’ve been paid well, and Mr. Carter is strict when it comes to the acting. You have to be careful… things aren’t always guaranteed in this business.

“Who knows what might come up in the future? We shouldn’t close any doors on ourselves.”

Yes, of course,” Sienna said, grateful. “Tll do as you say.”

She truly felt lucky to have Derek’s understanding. It made her realize that her luck wasn’t always as bad as she thought.

“Thank you so much, Derek, she bowed again.

“No problem.” Derek waved her off. “Go on, get ready”

“Okay.” She nodded.

That night, Siema didn’t leave the set until nearly midnight. When she got back to 12th Avenue, she was completely exhausted. She collapsed onto the bed, and as soon as her head at the pillow, she fell fast asleep.

The next morning, she arrived at the dance studio. After changing into her practice clothes, she was about to head for the practice room when a colleague called out to her from the doorway.

“Sienna! Ms. Scott asked for you to come to her office,” she said.

“Okay, thank you.” Sienna nodded.

She quickly locked up her locker, hurrying toward the office. She knocked and entered. “Ms. Scott, you wanted to see me?”

Brenda was sitting upright on the couch, her face expressionless

Sienna immediately felt a jolt of unease. Something didn’t feel right. While it was true that Ms. Scott was often serious, “Sienna could tell from the teacher’s eyes that she was angry.

“Ms. Scott?” Sienna instinctively bit her lip. “Did I do something wrong?”

“Humph.” Brenda raised an eyebrow and sneered.

She placed her phone on the coffee table. “Take a look. Is this you?”

“Oh, okay.” Sienna bent down and picked up the phone.

There was a picture of her from the night before, taken on set, with her makeup and costume fully visible.

Sienna’s eyes went wide in shock. “Ms. Scott, I…”

“Is this you?” Brenda’s gaze sharpened, her eyes boring into Sienna’s.

Sienna felt a chill run through her as her hands trembled. She couldn’t deny it. The person in the picture was clearly her.

Biting her lip, she reluctantly nodded. “Yes, it’s me.”

Brenda smiled, her expression dripping with sarcasm. “Sienna, you’ve got some nerve.”
