Chapter 541 Undeniable Chemistry
Zelena found the constant need to please the director draining, but she had no other option but to comply. Her
back injury had made it impossible for her to continue with the high-energy demands of variety shows.
Reluctantly, she had to redirect her focus toward film acting to protect her health.
The two film projects she was considering were similar in terms of their production teams, though they belonged
to different genres.
Urban s were less challenging to perform than period s, so Zelena chose The River's Breeze.
Stepping out of her comfort zone was already a significant hurdle, but she would soon face an even greater
obstacle.
The official page for The Lodge had just announced its new celebrity guests for the upcoming season: Nolan and
Polly. The episode had already been filmed and was scheduled to air over the weekend.
Online previews showed the two guests having a great tat The Lodge, enjoying themselves with the regular
cast.
Zelena was taken aback. "What? Polly is on the show too!?"
Trina looked confused. "What's the issue?"
Zelena's expression darkened. She had hurried back to Quinston and reentered the field to avoid overlapping

Polly had already secured a spot!
Zelena turned to Trina, demanding, "Wasn't it your responsibility to negotiate with The Lodge for me? Why didn't
you follow through?"
Trina responded, "At that time, you were still recovering from your injury, and the company had paused all your
engagements. Securing The Lodge was impossible. Even if we had tried, how could you have managed it given
your condition? Besides, | didn't anticipate they would bring Nolan on as a guest."
Zelena rolled her eyes, clearly infuriated.
Before she returned to Arlowand, she had specifically asked Trina to keep an eye on The Lodge.
She hadn't expected Trina to disregard her instructions so casually.
Now, Polly had taken the guest spot, and the episode had already been filmed.
It was too late to make any changes.
Zelena slammed her phone onto the table and glared at Trina. "Do you realize you've ruined something crucial
for me?"
Trina was taken aback by Zelena's outburst. "What are you talking about?"
Zelena snapped, "Why didn't you take this task seriously? Are you even a competent manager?"
Trina fired back, "Am I not
dedicated? Who do you think kept your endorsements and business deals afloat while you were injured? Do you
think those brands would have stayed without me?"
Zelena retorted, "Even if a thousand of those brands dropped me, it wouldn't matter!"
Zelena wasn't in the industry for the money.
The support from those brands was insignificant compared to her need to maintain a strong public image.
But no matter how vital her image was, it couldn't compare to Nolan!
This was a propportunity to work with Nolan, and missing it meant losing a rare chance.

Zelena pointed at Trina and said, "If you had devoted as much effort to The Lodge as you did to managing the
brands, Polly wouldn't have stolen the guest spot!"
Furious, Trina jumped up from her seat.

"Fine. If you're not satisfied withas your manager, find a better one."
With that, Trina stormed out, slamming the door behind her.
Zelena rolled her eyes in frustration, her temper close to boiling over. Trina's incredibly ungrateful!
Does she really think | can't manage without her? Hah!
Following her fallout with Trina, Marina Media renewed their contract with Zelena.
With Trina moving on to other clients, Zelena hired a new manager named Clifford Harding.
