Chapter 380 Suffering In Silence
A few days later, Forbos called her several times in a row, urging her more for money.
Evelyn felt that she was going to be driven crazy. Sometimes, she felt like she couldn't care less about anything anymore. If Forbos wanted to expose her dark past, then he could go ahead!
No matter how much she liked acting and wanted to be an actress, it didn't matter if she could not be an actress anymore. She didn't care if she would lose everything she had right now!
But as she thought of her mother who was still in the hospital, she felt a sharp pain in her heart. The thought of Evelyn getting into a life-and-death struggle with Forbos subsided.
She could not let things fall apart!
If she fell, what about her mother?
At this moment, she received a call from Marissa.
Marissa was a blunt person. She never beat around the bush.
As soon as the phone was connected, she asked directly, "Do you really need money?
Confused for a moment, Evelyn nodded quickly. "Yes."
"Well, there will be an event at the Century Bay tomorrow night. A few artists managed by my friend will go. But they're not from Starlight, but from some other companies."
I've told them that I'll take you with me. Although the pay is not much, you can still get a hundred thousand dollars. But after the event, you'll need to go to dinner with them. Is that okay?"
Evelyn immediately answered, "No problem."
"Okay, I'll inform you tomorrow."
"Okay, thank you, Marissa."
After hanging up the phone, Evelyn finally let out a sigh of relief.
When she thought that she could earn some money after tomorrow, she could not help but feel a little relieved.
The next day, Evelyn asked for a day off with the crew and went to the event.
When she arrived at the event, she found that it was an automotive event. All the models attending the event were freelance models or some actresses in the F-list.
To put it nicely, these people were the artists, but to put it bluntly, they were the wannabes who could not get into the entertainment circle.
Most of these models were beautiful and had hot figures, but they just lacked an opportunity. Although they knew the automotive event was not as simple as it seemed, they still scrambled for it to make their way here.
In the past, Marissa was not a famous manager. Later, the few artists she managed were a success. That was when she was hired by Starlight.
At present, except for Evelyn who was in the B-list, the rest of the several artists that were under her management were all rookies.
Evelyn did not know the relationship between these models and Marissa, but she thought they should know each other.
Besides, Marissa also said that it was a job accepted by her friend. Although these models were not very famous, it was also a good opportunity for them to participate in the automotive event.
After all, at this era, there were countless beautiful girls who wanted to set foot in the entertainment circle. There were too many of them compared to the opportunities available. So they would appreciate every opportunity that came their way.
In fact, Evelyn was reluctant to take part in such activities, but beggars couldn't be choosers.
After changing her clothes backstage, she came out with everyone else.
The job scope was easy, but because Evelyn was only 1.63 meters, she was relatively shorter than the models, although her height was not slightly above the average height of a woman.
Therefore, after she finished her makeup, the stylist gave Evelyn a pair of 12 cm pointed heels.
After wearing them for the whole afternoon, it was so painful that she could not feel her feet anymore.
But when Evelyn thought of the 100,000 dollars that she would be getting, she felt that such hardships were worth it. She gritted her teeth and got through it.
However, to her surprise, after she finished her job at the event in the afternoon, the staff came in from the outside, clapped his hands and said, "Everyone, please don't leave yet. Later, Mr. Chang and Mr. Bronte will hold a dinner party. We will have dinner together."
Hearing that, Evelyn was a little surprised.
Marissa did tell her before that they might have dinner together after work.
However, there were so many models at the event. There were more than a dozen of them. It should not be necessary for everyone to go, so she was thinking of turning it down.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a girl next to her spoke first.
"Kieran, I am having a stomachache. Can you not go?"
The manager, whose name was Kieran sneered and said, "Do you still want to get paid or not?"
The face of the girl who asked the question immediately turned red. After that, she bit her lips and dared not speak anymore.
Upon seeing this, Evelyn, who was standing aside, dared not to ask to leave first anymore.
It was not until Kieran went out that everyone let out a sigh of relief.
Everyone complained about it in low voices, but no one said anything more.
Evelyn looked around and cautiously asked the person standing next to her, "Why do they need all of us to go for dinner? Where are we going?"
The girl she asked had taken part in this kind of event before, so she was very familiar with it.
When she heard this, she glanced at her. "your first time?"
Evelyn nodded.
"You'd better be smart at night. In fact, in our field of work, sometimes you have to be observant and think fast so that nothing will happen to you. Everyone will just want to be there to have fun, they will not make things difficult for you for no reason."
Confused for a moment, Evelyn frowned when she heard what she said.
The girl smiled again and said, "It's not unusual for people like us to take part in these activities for the sake of our livelihood. Why do you still need to come here if you are already an established actress? You don't need that 100,000 dollars, do you?"
Evelyn was stunned and forced a smile.
"I just came here to experience things. I haven't done it before."
Upon hearing that, the girl sneered.
"Fine, go ahead and experience it yourself!"
After that, she changed her clothes and went to the bathroom.
Evelyn stood there and felt a little embarrassed. But there were some reasons that she must keep to herself and could not be told to outsiders, so she had no choice but to follow them.
The dinner place was situated at the city center. It was a very upscale hotel.
Evelyn got out of the car with the others and went inside.
She had already changed back to her own clothes. It was a casual outfit in white color. Although it looked pretty on her, it still looked a little old-fashioned.
In fact, she did this on purpose.
After all, in such a situation she had to dress down to protect herself.
Keiran, who led them here, took a look at her and frowned with disgust.
But he didn't say anything and led them to the top floor.
They took the lift all the way to the eighth floor. After passing through the luxurious hall, everyone finally stopped at the door of a VIP room.
Even though they were standing outside the door, they could still hear the lively music and noise from inside the room.
Of course, there was a waiter who opened the door for them. As soon as the door was opened, they were met with the extravagance of the party.
Evelyn couldn't help covering her nose. Kieran walked in first and said with a smile, "Sorry, the traffic is heavy today. I'm late."
