\u201cI know, I know,\u201d Larissa said, holding back a laugh. She had to admit, while she used to find such words cheesy, they sounded quite pleasant coming from Haskell.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright, I\u2019m going to sleep.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOkay. Sweet dreams, Larissa. Goodnight.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cGoodnight.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
After ending the call, Haskell stopped the screen recording and lay down on his bed, replaying the video he\u2019d just made. He recorded every one of their calls. Sometimes, in the dead of night, when his heart felt empty, he would watch them over and over until he felt whole again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The next morning at Starlight Media, Larissa\u2019s secretary, Ursa, followed her into the office, speaking urgently.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMs. Judson, Gale Entertainment just announced the cast for their new series, \u2018Soaring High\u2018, and it\u2019s causing a massive stir.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThe female lead is, unsurprisingly, the popular actress Livia, but the male lead is the award\u2013winning actor Fulbright. He\u2019s incredibly famous!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cEven the supporting cast is filled with well\u2013known actors. Plus, they\u2019ve brought in a legendary veteran actor\u2013Laurent.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWith this lineup, \u2018Soaring High\u2018 is getting an incredible amount of attention.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa sat down at her desk and calmly turned on her computer. \u201cOh? Sounds like Gale Entertainment is spending a lot of money on early marketing.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ursa was anxious. \u201cMs. Judson, they\u2019re beating us to every punch. If \u2018Soaring High\u2018 is released before our show, \u2018Heaven\u2019s Will\u2018 could lose a lot of its audience. Everyone can see that \u2018Soaring High\u2018 is a deliberate imitation Even though the original novel\u2019s fans are mocking it online, a show\u2019s ratings are never built on just the fanbase.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Larissa logged into her social media and opened Twitter. \u201cDon\u2019t worry. Let Gale Entertainment promote it all they want. No matter how much money they spend on marketing and big\u2013name stars, it will all go down the drain.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sure enough, the hashtag #Soaring High Leads was trending at number one. Gale Entertainment was clearly sparing no expense\u00a0<\/p>\n
[Wow! Gale Entertainment is going all out this time. Livia is a given since she\u2019s their princess, but they also got the award\u2013winning Fulbright as the male lead, and even the 80\u2013year\u2013old legend Laurent is coming out of retirement!]\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chapter 570\u00a0<\/p>\n
[This lineup is seriously something to look forward to!]\u00a0<\/p>\n
Of course, fans of \u201cHeaven\u2019s Will\u201d were pushing back.\u00a0<\/p>\n
[This is a blatant ripoff of \u201cHeaven\u2019s Will\u201c! They couldn\u2019t get the rights, so they just copied it. Shameless!]\u00a0<\/p>\n
[So what? Your favorite author didn\u2019t invent the time\u2013travel genre. Another story with the same theme isn\u2019t plagiarism!]\u00a0<\/p>\n
[It\u2019s not just the time travel. The female lead is also from the countryside, is loved by several princes, and rises to become the first female official in the dynasty. That\u2019s not exactly a common trope in television, is it?]\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAlright, Ms. Judson,\u201d Ursa said, calming down as she saw Larissa\u2019s unflustered demeanor. She had been with the new boss long enough to know her capabilities.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Not long after Ursa left, Larissa received a call from Gustave.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cGustave, what\u2019s up?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cLarissa, I\u2019m sure you know of an actor named Rigby Schwartz.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
