Chapter 1343:
Fortunately, Rory’s scenes had been filmed in advance, so the schedule wasn’t disrupted.
After offering the staff a sincere apology, Margo resumed filming.
“Cut!” the director shouted.
Margo finally let out a breath and rolled her sore shoulder. She had been filming all day with barely any breaks, and after being inactive for so many days, she felt a little overwhelmed.
“That’s enough for today. Let’s call it a day p>
Everyone who had been working nonstop all day felt relieved the moment the director said that. Even Margo was eager to leave—she wanted nothing more than to go see Dunn.
With her head lowered, Margo checked in with her agent and headed toward the dressing room. But just as she reached for the door, she heard voices from inside.
“Why does Star Entertainment spoil Margo so much p>
“Look who her boyfriend is—the son of the Hopkins family p>
“He’s just a rich second-generation. How could he influence Star Entertainment’s decisions? Maybe she has a backer in the company p>
“Backer” was the word they stressed. The two women burst into laughter, their voices dripping with sarcasm.
Margo immediately recognized them—two actresses with minor roles who often hovered around Rory, hoping to borrow a little fame for themselves. Their intentions were obvious.
“You really think someone would sleep with her? She’s thin as a pole p>
Margo’s expression stiffened. She instinctively glanced down at her chest as anger surged up her throat.

She pushed the door open and walked right in.

“At least my breasts are natural,” Margo said with a light chuckle, looking at them with open disdain. “That’s better than someone’s augmentations p>
They clearly hadn’t expected her to be right outside. Embarrassment flashed across their faces. One of them forced a smile, trying to smooth things over. “Margo… what a coincidence. Are you here to remove your makeup p>
“Why don’t you two keep going?” Margo sneered, leaning against the doorframe. “I’d love to hear what else you have to say about me p>
The actress in red tried to salvage the situation, her fake smile finally cracking. But the other one—Dora—stepped forward first, moving in front of her.
“What’s the problem?” Dora snapped. “You know what kind of person you are. Don’t act so shameless. You really think you’ll be something just because you have a backer p>
“Dora…” The actress in red interjected, suddenly looking uneasy.
Dora kept her eyes on Margo, raking her up and down with a hostile glare. “I don’t even know how capable you really are p>
“I don’t know how capable I am either,” Margo replied coolly. “But I do know this—walls have ears. Next time you want to talk behind someone’s back, remember to lock the door p>
