Second Chances

Chapter 140 

Even if Emma was not interested in participating in such a variety show, there had been too many negative comments about her on the Internet recently. 

“Legacy of a Healer” was a good program. If Emma could use this opportunity to clear her name, it would be a good choice. 

After the party ended, Emma told Liam her thoughts. 

Liam supported Emma and even prepared to invest in the production of “Legacy of a Healer“. He directly let Emma join the team with the funds. 

It wasn’t just Liam. Sean called as soon as he heard Emma was going on a variety show. “Emma. I heard you’re preparing to film a variety show. Is that true?” 

Emma answered the phone lazily. “Not really. It’s just a guest appearance on the show.” 

Of course, the executive director wanted Emma to be there for the whole season. However, that would take too 

much time, so Emma only planned to appear for one episode. 

Sean said, “Emma, although I’ve never been on a variety show, if it’s in the entertainment industry, I have the final say. If anyone dares to bully you, you must tell me, get it?” 

Sean also doted on Emma. He was very busy filming “Bell“, but was still worried about her. 

“I know, Uncle Sean. Don’t worry. No one can bully me,” Emma stated. 

Sean wasn’t reassured. “Emma, the entertainment industry is not as simple as you think. You know what happened to Celia… Just be careful.” He paused before adding, “Oh right. Let me look at the contract before you sign it. Maybe I know the boss of that show. I will get them to pay you more.” 

“Thanks, Uncle Sean,” Emma said. 

On one side was Troln City’s all–powerful Liam, and on the other was the influential Best Actor Sean, who could cause the entertainment industry to tremble if his face darkened. With their protection, Emma, who was on a variety show for the first time, was no longer nervous. 

A week later, Emma packed up her necessities and officially entered the production team. 

The program was in the form of a live broadcast. During the recording, the entire process was militarized and closed. 

Visits were not allowed during filming. Liam drove Emma to the entrance of the base. Thinking they were going to be separated again, he took her in his arms, reluctant to part with her. “Call me when you’re free.” 

Emma hugged Liam back. “Got it. Don’t worry. I’ll do my best.” She pinched Liam’s nose sweetly. Probably not many people in Troln City would dare to do this. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

“When the program is broadcast live, remember to watch me on television on time,” Emma reminded. 

Liam replied, “Definitely.” 

They leaned against each other for a while. 

Before Emma got out of the car, Liam pinched her delicate chin and kissed her for a long time. 

The familiar male hormones drifted to Emma’s nose. Her body soon burned with desire. Her face quickly turned 

red from the kiss. 

“W–wait for me to come back. I’ll be late soon,” Emma stuttered. 

“Okay.” Liam’s eyes were dark and his voice was deep. “I’ll wait for you to come back.” 

‘And make it up to me.‘ These words were obvious from the look on Liam’s face. 

Emma kissed Liam’s handsome face and walked toward the base. 

Due to the production team’s rules, Liam could not enter after sending Emma to the entrance. 

Fortunately, Emma’s things were not much. She fitted everything in a 28–inch suitcase. 

Emma dragged her luggage and walked forward. However, she didn’t get far before two young men in black work 

clothes ran out. 

One of them said, “Are you Miss Wilson? I’m Timmy Hammond. Mr. Hall has given me instructions. You can leave the physical work of moving luggage to me.” 

When Emma heard “Mr. Hall’s instructions“, she felt warmth in her heart. She looked back and saw Liam’s car still parked at the entrance. It seemed like Liam was going to watch her until she entered the house. 

“Sorry to trouble you then,” Emma said. 

“It’s nothing. It’s my job.” Timmy rolled Emma’s luggage enthusiastically. 

As Timmy led the way, he introduced the area. “It’s a big area, about 200 acres. Your room is in Building 3. It’s the best VIP building. The room number is 3211. It’s the largest single bedroom in the entire building. The bedroom faces south. It’s already been cleaned.” 

“Thanks.” As Emma spoke, she looked around and memorized the route. She had heard that some variety shows required people to live together. It seemed that after Liam and Sean paved the way for her, things were indeed different. Not only did Emma have her own room, but she also got the best VIP building. 

When they reached the room, Timmy placed Emma’s luggage at the door and stopped. “Miss Wilson, you can rest first.” 

Then Timmy handed Emma a paper. “This is the schedule. There’s a live broadcast tonight. Thanks for rushing here.” 

Emma took the schedule. “It’s fine. Thanks for your help.” With that, she took out a few bills from her wallet as a tip. 

Timmy was a little flattered and immediately accepted them. “Thanks so much. In any case, I’m familiar with the matters here. Just call me if you need anything. I’ll be waiting round the clock.” 

Emma nodded. “Sure.” 

After Timmy left, Emma looked around. 

The living conditions here were indeed excellent. Staying here and filming was akin to a vacation. 

After Emma successfully checked in, she began to familiarize herself with the schedule of tonight’s live broadcast. Because it was a popular science program, unlike other variety shows, it did not require singing and dancing talent 

showcases. 

However, it was precisely because of this that all the guests had to be even more vigilant. There could be no mistakes. Otherwise, they would be misleading others, 

After Emma made some simple preparations, someone picked her up in the afternoon to do her hair and makeup. 

The executive director took special care of Emma and even went to the dressing room where Emma was. “Miss Wilson, because our show is broadcast live, we don’t have a script. Just act normally later.” 

The executive director continued, “This is the guest patient we invited today. He’s a little boy with depression. These are the other two guests who will be on stage with you. One is known for traditional therapy in the country, and the other is Leon Mellow, a PhD doctor who returned from overseas.” 

The executive director put a thick folder on the table before Emma. “I’ve placed all the information here for you. Take a look later.” 

“Got it,” Emma said. 

The executive director smiled. “Then I’ll look forward to your performance later.” 

Chapter 14D 

After the executive director left, the makeup artist said to Emma, “Miss Wilson, the executive director really cares about you. He’s usually very busy and never comes backstage.” 

“Is that so?” Emma thought that this was probably the reason why Liam or Sean had paved the way for her. 

“Miss Wilson, your skin is so good. You don’t even have pores…” The makeup artist expressed her envy. 

The makeup artist was able to execute her skills even better on a beautiful face. She used all she had learned to give Emma the perfect “first love nude makeup.” 

An hour later, a stunning, 360–degree “photogenic face” was created. 

Emma looked at herself in the mirror and was quite satisfied. It was exquisite but not vulgar. It matched her usual temperament and was also suitable for a doctor. 

After all the preparations were done, Emma finally went live.
