After speaking, the caller hung up.

Noelle gripped her phone tightly, her knuckles turning while.

Rosie sat quietly beside her, still waiting for Noelle to notice her.

"I-"Noelle took a deep breath before finding her voice. "Rosie, we can't leave for now."noveldrama

"Why? Won't we go home anymore?" Rosie's face fell, clearly upset. "But Mommy, you promised me we'd go home today. I want to go back and play with Gabby."

"I'm sorry, Rosie. This is all Mommy's fault." Noelle stroked Rosie's hair. "Something came up, so we need to stay here for a few more days, okay? I promise that as soon as it's resolved, we'll go home right away." Rosie quieted down.

Noelle could see her disappointment, but she didn't have the luxury to comfort her further.

Her phone rang again, and this time, it was from the film company, which also happened to be Ebony's agency.

Someone had leaked photos of Noelle and Ebony on set, claiming that they were always like this-flirting under the guise of discussing the script.

Had Noelle been single, Ebony's fans might not have been so upset. But after learning she was a single mother, they instantly flooded Ebony's agency and studio. The square was filled with nothing but insults toward Noelle.

At this point, whether she had plagiarized or not no longer mattered. Even if she were innocent, she was still in the wrong in their eyes.

Ebony had gone into hiding, but the production costs continued to pile up. If the show was canceled and couldn't be completed, the investors would undoubtedly hold Noelle accountable.

She was told she shouldn't have been so careless and shouldn't have left anyone with this kind of leverage.

Now, not only were Ebony's fans riled up, but even his rivals had seized the opportunity to stir things up. And if someone needed to take the fall for this, then there was no doubt that Noelle was the perfect candidate.

"There's nothing going on between me and Ebony," Noelle said through gritted teeth.

"There's no point telling us this, and the same goes for explaining it to the fans. No one will believe you." The voice on the other end was cold and detached.

"We have already made arrangements. The company will release a statement now, announcing your withdrawal from the production. Besides, the script has already undergone significant revisions, so whether you plagiarized or not doesn't really matter anymore. We'll treat this as an entirely new project. "But don't worry. We'll still be paying you the royalties we promised you after deducting the compensation you need to pay the production team. However, your name will no longer appear on the credit. This is already the best resolution."

Hearing this, Noelle couldn't help but smile bitterly. "Is that so? So, I don't even have the right to refuse,
