Claudia was watching a video with her phone when it beeped. She wondered what or who was trending right now.
Lately, since Harlow had ventured into movies, she had been so invested in her career. All of a sudden, she wanted to be a big movie star again and she knows the only way she can achieve that is by being the lead role in Harlow’s recent movies.
Claudia has called every producer in the city and made a deal with them. She would gift them millions if only they could secure the lead role for her in Anna’s upcoming movie.
She wanted to be the lead so badly. She has made the same deal with Robert but the foolish man lost the opportunity. She didn’t want to lose this opportunity herself. This was her ticket to being the biggest actress in the world. It was her ticket to securing Alanis’s heart.
Claudia was about to check the message when her phone rang. When she saw the caller, she picked up. It was Feng Lu, her manager/ assistant.
"Miss Claudia an open audition has been issued for the new movie. It means actresses from far and wide would be in attendance too, we need to secure a spot for you as quickly as possible." The man said hurriedly. He has been following Harlow’s movie for a long time now and only saw the announcement on Harlow’s social media page this morning.
"Can’t we speak to Mr Berg to just give me the role what’s the use for an audition?" Claudia complained. She could bribe everyone in life but certainly not Evan’s Collin Berg, the man is a menace and will never accept a bribe from her.
The Collin Berg’s are one of the biggest families in the West, Evans didn’t need her money.
"I’m afraid not Miss Claudia. Mr Berg will fire me and end our deal if we initiate such." Mr Feng said calmly. Claudia’s signing under Shoot Pictures, for her grade of acting was because of her father’s connections with the Collin Bergs. Evans hadn’t intended on picking her since she couldn’t act well, which is why she barely gets any role.
Claudia gritted her teeth. For how long will she continue to be a talentless stupid sister while everything keeps working in Harlow’s favor?
"Miss, I’m afraid you will have to audition if you still want to be a part of the film. We could practice till you’re ready for it." He suggested.
"Alright, since it’ll be a live audition, I want to be the last person that would be there for the audition," Claudia said. Even if she wasn’t really good at acting, she knew last people always stole the show and she wanted to steal the show.
She would steal everything Harlow thinks she owns, including the credit for her new movie.
"It is done, Miss." He hung up.
The moment Claudia was done talking to her manager, a picture appeared on her screen immediately. It was the picture of Harlow speculating around the internet as people wondered who she had missed earlier in a black car.
Harlow was seen with both Alanis Hamilton, the ex-president of Hamilton Corp, and Evans Collin Berg, the CEO of Shoot Pictures.
Claudia frowned at this. The sender of the message said, "You were right Claudia, your sister is really a whore. Flirting with our superior is the new low."
"I told you," Claudia responded. She stared at the picture on her screen, it was only a matter of time before she took back her rightful place. She picked up her car keys from the table and left the mansion.

When they arrived at their destination, Harlow stepped out of the car and headed for the building ahead of them. She pressed the button by the gate and the voice of a man was heard.
"This is Edward speaking who are you?"
"It’s me, Harlow." She said calmly. The place was quiet for a while and in the next second a loud screech was heard from the other end.
"Oh my gosh! Boss! Boss, please come in." Edward yelled excitedly and Harlow smiled. If there was ever anyone who genuinely loved and respected her, it would be the people who worked for her. They were more than just bosses and workers, they were family.
The lock opened and Harlow stepped in. When she got in, Richard lifted her in his arms again. They have all been following the news about their boss and even if she’s asked them not to interfere for their safety, they all wanted to help the little way they could.
"We have all missed you so much," Edward said as they stepped in.
"I have missed you too." Harlow bellowed. When they got in, Richard placed his boss back on the floor as he led her into their underground tunnel. It’s their little diamond workshop for now until Harlow is determined to expand the business.
"How have things been around here?" She asked staring at the arranged jewels on headless mannequins. They were the designs she had created before everything went south. The same designs her father had stolen from her.
"They were beautiful till we saw your father recreate them," Edward said.
"It seems he stole them when he locked the building before," Richard said.
"I’m sorry if I offend you with my words boss, but your father is a coward. He can’t give you accolades but keep stealing from you." Elena said in annoyance.
They had all woken up one morning to see their designs on the Blackwood’s jewel website as their new collection. Frank Blackwood really had no shame.
Harlow said nothing and walked towards a chart on the wall. She wasn’t surprised at her father’s actions anymore. Frank is known to always steal her ideas, but not anymore. She would never let him steal from her again.
"What’s this?" Harlow asked staring at the chart on the wall.
"The diamond market has dropped the past few weeks but skyrocketed again when your father stole our ideas," Richard said.
"We’re going back to business. We’ll need to compete with them and pull them out of the market." Harlow said calmly. This time, the name of her company will be under a different name.
Still in her thoughts, her phone beeped, when she checked the message, it came from her father’s assistant. It read, ’How are you doing Miss H?’
