Endorsements have a different significance for celebrities,

the rarer the endorsement, the more status it represents, especially in the industry for luxury endorsements — they’re top-tier resources every celebrity is desperate to snag.

Even just an endorsement from a branch in Sina reflects unparalleled glory,

as long as it’s luxury.

After acquiring an endorsement, one’s value surges, and their status rises with the tide, the benefits are countless.

Lucy Wood and the other party were on the verge of signing the contract, with everything seemingly settled.

She never imagined they could back out for such a reason.

Had someone else snagged the endorsement, Lucy might have accepted it, but it was handed directly to Naya York — her arch-nemesis, which infuriated Lucy to no end.

It was a situation no one could calm down.

Seeing Lucy’s intense emotional upheaval, even Felicia Frost knew it was tough to offer comfort, only managing to say, “By the time I heard the news, they had already made their decision, sorry.”

Lucy waved her hand dismissively: “It’s not your fault.”

The decision to drop her means that unless someone influential at the headquarters speaks up, all other attempts are futile.

Lucy was just unwilling to let go; she had invested a lot in this resource, even turning down several other opportunities that might affect the endorsement. Now it was gone for a trumped-up reason, and they were even approaching Naya. How could she swallow such an insult?

But what could she do about it?

Even with the backing of the Wood Family, she was helpless; luxury brands didn’t need to give her face.

After discussing the matter with her, Felicia had other matters to handle, possibly the fallout from this incident. Naya had gained the endorsement out of the blue, and who knew how she would use the press release to trample Lucy.

Upon returning to her room, Lucy’s complexion was notably terrible.

Luckily, it was her sleeping time, so there was no live broadcast scheduled. Otherwise, the audience would have seen right through her.

The endorsement money wasn’t the key issue; she needed to maintain her career for a few more years before retiring, and the more luxury endorsements she had, the better for her. In other words, she had just lost access to a vital resource.

She couldn’t very well blame Ellen Young; who would have anticipated the group would judge people with such bias?

***

When Ellen Young woke up, the live broadcast had already begun.

Even though Lucy was forcing a smile during today’s broadcast, Ellen could sense that something was off — very off.

Lucy seemed normal before sleeping, but upon waking, her expression was different. Combined with the live broadcast, it suggested something unexpected had occurred.

Ellen’s thoughts were quick. She didn’t particularly follow Lucy’s affairs, but upon hearing, she asked softly, “Are you feeling upset?”

Lucy was startled, and immediately forced a smile, “No, of course not, I probably just didn’t get enough sleep?”

She hadn’t slept at all.

With viewers watching, how could she admit to feeling bad?

Even if she did, she’d have to keep it inside.

Ellen Young wasn’t fooled by this act. After a moment’s thought, she didn’t press further and simply asked, “What would you like for dinner tonight?”

This was the first time Ellen had asked her what she wanted to eat. Usually, it was Ellen who cooked, and she would just eat whatever was prepared.

Anything Ellen cooked was delicious, but her initiative to ask left Lucy feeling unexpectedly cherished. Her mood lifted slightly and she stammered, “I… I’d like some sweet and sour pork ribs.”
