Benjamin didn’t care much about acting. Applying to the drama department had been a casual decision.
However, when Olivia extended her invitation, he didn’t hesitate to say yes.
“Sure.” While Lucas was still making remarks, Benjamin agreed in one swift move.
Lucas was left dumbfounded, thinking, Wow, you really don’t hold back.
Olivia smiled. She was fully aware that her small company couldn’t afford to sign these two young heirs. But getting them to work for free? That she could handle!
With a flurry of convincing words, Olivia managed to make both of them sign contracts for participation. She even clarified that their roles were simply guest appearances, the kind that came with zero payment!
Jared watched in astonishment as Olivia worked her magic, persuading these two obviously wealthy young. men into signing on as unpaid help. Not only that, but they also had to be at her beck and call.
Once she had what she wanted, Olivia quickly sent them on their way, claiming she had work to attend to.
She thought gleefully, Starlit Entertainment loves acting powerful? Let’s see them try blacklisting the heirs of the Thompson and Moore families!
With a mix of persuasion and persistence, Olivia efficiently finalized the extras and lead roles.
Zayn was equally fast. He completed the script’s opening scenes overnight and sent them to Olivia.
The next challenges were securing filming locations and refining the costumes and props. Shooting a period drama meant costumes played a vital role. Grand dreams clashed with stark realities.
Producing a movie drained money at every turn…
As Legacy of the Dynasty remained in preparation, Olivia’s funds were vanishing like water through her fingers.
Staring at the dwindling figures, Olivia cried silently. It’s not just money I’m spending. This is my very life!
Starlit Entertainment unveiled the official account for Tears of Rivers and shared character portraits featuring Amelia and the lead cast.
The original $13.7 million budget for Tears of Rivers was tripled by Starlit Entertainment. A $41.1 million investment produced portraits so dazzling they captivated the online audience.
Fans flooded the comment section to gush over the photos.
“Amelia is absolutely breathtaking! Historical beauty at its peak!”
“She’s stunning and fierce!”
“Some people sure forget fast. How could everyone overlook Amelia’s scandal from not long ago?”
“Hold on. That was all Daisy’s fault. Amelia, a rookie who got stuck with a shady agent, couldn’t have done anything to stop it. Poor Amelia, she got sabotaged by a terrible manager.

Under the heavy blow of tens of millions in PR expenses by Starlit Entertainment, the major media outlets were frantically whitewashing Amelia while directing all the blame at the departed Daisy.
Money worked wonders, and Amelia climbed back to the top, reclaiming her popularity.”
Right after the portraits for Tears of Rivers were released, Zayn reached out to Olivia and shared the photos.
“Starlit Entertainment just put out the portraits for Tears of Rivers. Have a look,” Zayn said.
Olivia opened the link and saw the stunning portraits of the lead cast.
Zayn explained, “I heard their designs were created by elite designers and makeup teams. The styling for their two leads alone cost over a million. Olivia, maybe we should consider pushing back. Going head–to- head with Tears of Rivers doesn’t seem like the best move right now.”
