Marie came downstairs, and Noel was still sitting on the couch waiting for her.

Marie obediently walked over and sat down next to Noel. She watched as Noel’s fingers rapidly tapped

the keyboard, not even lifting his head as he said, “Marie, take a look at the document next. to you

first. I’ll talk to you once I’m done with this.”

Marie picked up the document next to her and opened it. It was an introduction to the current

companies in the entertainment industry.

The three major entertainment industry giants are all located in New York, namely Global Medias, KBK, and Mega Medias. These three companies have almost monopolized the domestic market,

representing nearly all of the top–tier and second–tier celebrities and artists.

Olive was originally an artist under KBK, but working for another company ultimately meant facing

many restrictions. Now, the Spence family is planning to open a subsidiary, making Olive somewhat of

a co–owner. Once her contract with KBK expires next year, she will return to Spence Group.

Although they are known as the “Big Three,” Global Medias has always been the industry leader,

boasting the most top–tier artists. Naturally, their signing requirements are more stringent, while KBK

and Mega Medias are slightly less selective.

Marie was carefully considering how she could survive between these three big shots.

The materials also included information about some popular idol celebrities. Marie briefly looked.

through them, but she felt that for people in the entertainment industry, reading their profiles a hundred

times wouldn’t compare to seeing them in person just once.

Marie didn’t look at the remaining important media. It would be best if the media could be

obedient, but if not, she would have to be on guard herself.

After finishing up on his end, Noel closed his laptop and asked, “So, are you interested in the

entertainment industry?”

Marie nodded and said, “It looks pretty good, but after the university entrance exam, we still have to go

to college. Aren’t these things a bit far off?”

Noel said, “No, many celebrities actually started acting in university. As they gradually gained fame,

they established themselves in the entertainment industry, and the schools didn’t put too much

pressure on them.”

“These companies seem so hard to get into,” Marie said.

“Doesn’t Marie want to return to her own company?” Noel asked.

“Look at Carly’s attitude, wouldn’t she just eat me alive if we worked at the same company?” Marie

Noel laughed and said, “If you have a company in mind, I can help you with a recommendation.

However, making a name for yourself still depends on your own abilities.” This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Marie nodded and asked, “Isn’t the Olive Entertainment subsidiary not in New York? Won’t it lack a

lot of resources?”

Noel shook his head and said, “The company address for Olive Entertainment will be in New York, and

the focus of the Spence family’s business will also shift to New York in the future, so there’s no

need to worry about that.”

Marie smiled without saying a word. Each sentence from Noel told her how much Olive and Carly

were pampered at home. Even the company’s development direction was heading towards New

York, allowing the two of them to have better opportunities for growth.

So, what exactly is Marie’s status as the legitimate young lady of this household?

Marie glanced at a document nearby, picked it up, and asked, “What is this?”

“Marie!” Noel reached out, trying to stop her, but it was too late. Marie had already flipped it open and

caught a glimpse of the words [Olive Entertainment.]

Noel reached out to close the file, bringing it to his side, and said, “It’s nothing, just some

preparatory work for the subsidiary.”

Marie looked at Noel’s face and smiled, lifting the corners of her mouth.

Noel agreed to teach her and share information about his business affairs. However, when it came to

Olive Entertainment and his two beloved younger sisters, he would be extremely cautious, fearing that

Marie might learn even the slightest bit of confidential business information.

To put it simply, he was guarding against Marie, worried that she might harm them.”

If Noel had never shown any kindness, Marie would have directly categorized him with Mia, Olive, and

Carly’s group, and she wouldn’t have hesitated to deal with him.

However, Noel had helped her several times, making her feel that he was different from the others. in

the family. But now, he seemed to be guarding her like one would guard against a thief.

This fickleness made Marie feel uneasy. She couldn’t bring herself to take down Noel along with Mia,

Olive, and Carly, because Noel had given her a lot of well–intentioned help.

People like this are the most upsetting, just sugar–coating the pill.

Marie’s eyes were filled with mockery as she said, “Thank you for Noel’s kindness, I appreciate it.”

Marie stood up, ready to go upstairs.

Noel felt the sting of her gaze and said, “Marie, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to hurt you.”

Marie turned to look at him, her laughter unrestrained and bold. “Hurt? What makes you think you’re

qualified to hurt me?”

Noel choked up, “Marie…”

“Noel, if you really want to protect your dear sister, it’s best to keep your distance from me. Being

caught in the middle won’t make you a good person.” Marie said coldly, then turned and went upstairs.
