Chapter 380
Zola said nothing.
But she was already cursing Leopold deep down.
Tonight, she wanted to make the director get as drunk as possible, yet those few simple words left her with no chance.
“Sir, do you mind if I leave with Zola first?” asked Leopold abruptly.
Zola froze.
The director was stunned, too.

“Tomorrow, , our group will be rehearsing. Drinking too much will affect our condition. I’ll take the other actors in our group with me, too. I am sure it’s fine, right?” explained Leopold,
Zola quickly hid her shocked expression.
She thought, Thank goodness.
It’s not only me.
Otherwise, I would not be able to explain myself.
The director quickly stopped him. “It’s not even ten o’clock yet. Isn’t it a little too early? It’s normal for youngsters to sleep
late.”
“It’s not good to sleep so late. Actors are different from other industries. Their face might swell in the morning, and it will affect the performance.”
“It’s just a rehearsal. It’s not an official performance.”
“Every stage deserves respect,” said Leopold firmly,
The director failed to convince Leopold.
He compromised and said, “Alright, let the other team members leave first or go and talk to other superiors. As for Zola, I’ll send her back myself.”
“Why do you want to keep Zola here?” asked Leopold.
Those who worked in the entertainment industry knew why.
Leopold questioned that intentionally.
The director was slightly displeased. “Mr. Cavanaugh, actors have personal matters to deal with don’t think s report to you about everything, right?”
Leopold did not give in. “I don’t care about what happens in the future. But I would never let anything unreasonab under my nose. It wouldn’t be fair to any other actor. I’m sure you know what I’m talking about.”
Even under the dim light, one could tell that the director’s expression was gloomy.
Leopold stood up.
The moment he stood up, he threatened Zola, ‘Ms. Stokes gave you a lot of pointers. I can only give up on you if you want

to go on. I’ve always been a fair person. I don’t want any of my team members playing any tricks.”
Leopold’s words embarrassed Zola.
Zola bit her lip. She did not dare to refute before everyone.
The director could feel Leopold’s anger.
It took quite some effort for the production team to invite Leopold. Moreover, after the first episode was broadcast, Leopold’s popularity became the highest, surpassing the actors in the competition and even the special guest Jaelynn. Coupled with his status in the industry, the director did not dare to have a direct conflict with Leopold.

He quickly explained. “Mr. Cavanaugh, you’ve misunderstood. I wanted to keep Zola here because she could drink, and I wanted her to drink with the other superiors. Now that most of them have left and since you value the actors performance so much. I won’t keep Zola here anymore. Zola, you can leave with Mr. Cavanaugh and the others.”
Zola looked at the director.
She showed a hint of reluctance through her gaze.
An actor, of course, could act anywhere.
“Don’t let Mr. Cavanaugh down, said the director sarcastically.
“Yes, sir. Zola nodded obediently.
Then, she left with Leopold.
When they left, the other team members were also with them.
Some were still feeling dissatisfied after being suddenly taken away.
Of course, they didn’t dare to disobey Leopold and left the nightclub obediently.
They were at the entrance of the nightclub.
“I’ll arrange for a car to send you all back. Don’t even think about coming back. If you don’t rest well tonight and mess up tomorrow’s rehearsal, I won’t let you off easily.” Leopold was stern.
Everyone quickly nodded. “Yes, Mr. Cavanaugh
Zola felt Leopold was threatening her.
Leopold told his assistant to arrange a car. Then, he sent three actors back.
Zola was among them…
She wanted to take another car, but it was not heading in the direction she wanted to go.
Leopold sent the other two actors home before driving her back
After all, her house was the furthest from the city
Without the other two actors around, the car was too quiet.
“Wipe it”
Leopold suddenly spoke and handed her a wet tissue

Zola took the wet tissue and wiped her lips instinctively.
She thought something was on her lips.
“Hands,” reminded Leopold.
Zola was taken aback.
Then, she recalled about the director touching her hands.
Leopold was still so obsessed with cleanliness.
Zola silently wiped her hands again and again.
She said nothing,

“I can’t promise about the future, but as long as I’m still on this show, I can guarantee that no one would take advantage of you,” said Leopold..
“Thank you.” Zola thanked him.
Leopold had taken all the responsibility tonight. The director would not dare to look for her in the future. Of course, even if he did, she would have an excuse, and the director would not make things difficult for her.
“What happened in the past…” said Leopold.
Let’s not talk about the past anymore, Zola interrupted. “Let’s just let those unpleasant incidents be bygones. I’ve already moved on.”
Leopold’s Adam’s apple bobbed.
Those unpleasant incidents…..
He wondered if everything was unpleasant for her.
Leopold pulled over in Zola’s neighborhood.
Zola thanked him before leaving.
Leopold looked at her and his crippled leg.
He thought, ‘Indeed.
‘It is no longer pleasant.”
Meanwhile, Kylie was in Galaxy Group.
Kylie had recovered from her cold and arranged some assignments for the higher-ups.
The phone rang suddenly.
She glanced at it and turned on the silent mode.
A WhatsApp message popped up. “It’s urgent. Pick up the call.
Kylic frowned.
Adam rarely urged her.

She hesitated for a moment before saying. “You guys discuss the clothing marketing plan first. I’m taking this call.”
Kylie walked out of the conference room with the phone and dialed Adam’s number. “Hello.”
“Grandpa suddenly had a cerebral hemorrhage and has been sent to the hospital for emergency treatment. Hurry up and come to Kenville. I’ve already arranged for a private plane. You din go straight to the airport. The person on the other end sounded anxious.
“Is it serious?” Kylie’s heart skipped a beat.
“His condition doesn’t look good. Anyway, come over as soon as possible.”
With that, he hung up the call.
Kylie was stunned for a few seconds. The next moment, she quickly returned to the conference room. “I have something urgent to attend to at Kenville. Give me a first draft of what I just said. If I don’t come back tomorrow, Derick, email me to remind me.”
“Okay”
Kylie left the company. She sat Get Jos’s luggage ready”
the car and called Lorenzo. “Treturn to pick Jos up half an hour and go to Kenville.

“Yes, Miss Stafford.”
