Chapter 2011
Amanda could not make sense of the strange question. "What? Weren't you the one who told the Carter Corporation president to instruct them to make another official announcement?”
Isabel chuckled, amused by the intriguing thought. Roland sure was very thoughtful for someone who always looked so disengaged with things around him.
Once the team of the "Legend of the Goddess" and "The Wonder" posted the official announcement, there was no need for her to say anything at all to defend her name. Just like that, the whole internet would know that she had taken back the roles that were rightfully hers.
She promptly texted Roland again.
She sent him a smiling emoji and thanked him sincerely. ‘Thanks for pulling through. | promise you | will personally give you a big bonus at the end of the year."
Roland replied curtly, "You're welcome, but no need for the bonus.”
Isabel asked brazenly, "Huh? Why?"
Who in their right mind would refuse a big bonus?
Roland explained tactfully, "You’re my boss. I’m just doing my job."
Isabel broke out into a wide grin.
When did this guy learn to talk like this?
"If this is what you want, then fine. Just don't turn around and complain about your year-end bonus!"
That being said, she still planned to give him a larger bonus than she originally planned to.
Even without factoring in this event, he had certainly proven his worth with the quality of his work and attitude.
Roughly half an hour later, the official pages of "Legend of the Goddess" and "The Wonder" made a series of official announcements for all to see.
“Legend of the Goddess" wrote: "We are sorry to have held off the official announcement of our lead actress for so long. We have been releasing a series of teasers for a while to keep you all guessing, and we are sure you have an idea of who the great Goddess will be by this point! The goddess of grace and beauty is @lsabel!" ‘The Wonder" wrote: "We have kept you all waiting long enough. The new member joining The Wonder family for its new season is none other than Isabel! Welcome, (©lsabel. We can't wait to see you!"Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Agiant storm of debate broke out nearly instantly as soon s the announcements were made. The people who had been following the drama had a lot to say.
“My God, what a shocking twist!" "| was not expecting Isabel to come out on top in the end! Is it true what they say about Isabella trying to steal the roles away from her originally?" "Huh? How come all those journalists who were accusing Isabel of weaponizing her fans against Isabella are so quiet now? Weren't they going on something about Isabel not having respect for them?" "I heard that Isabel's manager has a lot of connections. Do you think there's a chance that these two roles were always Isabella's, to begin with, but it was Isabel’s team who had pulled strings behind the scenes to snatch the roles away?" "Come on, if Isabel’s team had this option all along, why would they have relied on the fans to fight for Isabel? They could have done this from the very beginning!" ‘That's right. Isabella claimed that she was given the roles solely based on merit, but if it was true, why did the official pages not announce her right away? Even after she revealed that she was going to be the lead actress of Legend of the Goddess’ and that she was joining ‘The Wonder’, none of the official pages bothered to confirm the news." "Some of us are not that dumb. We've seen this coming from the very beginning. The clues were there all along. We knew that Isabel was going to star in ‘Legend of the Goddess’. Besides, everyone knows that she talks to the show directors of ‘The Wonder’. They've even been seen dining together in public!" "Huh, | really thought Isabel was the one trying to drum up this drama to get at Isabella. | was wrong about her this entire tim Isabel, but she is nowhere near Isabel's level in terms of charisma and acting skills. Some of the best shows Isabella had been a

Isabel's fans swarmed her page to congratulate her. Meanwhile, Isabella's fans were left to silently stew in rage.
Isabel replied to the official posts made by "Legend of the Goddess" and " The Wonder". After that, she happily put away her phone.
