Chapter 4Boundless Jasmine

A year ago, I realized that what Raymond could offer me was already very limited. I was already a top-tier actress. Many resources, I could get even without him. In fact, I could even obtain some resources that he couldn't.

But I didn’t immediately dump him.

Firstly, even if he couldn’t bring me much positive benefit, he could easily ruin my career, and I couldn't afford to make an enemy of him. Secondly, as a pure, devoted “white flower” to her patron, I should wait for the patron to grow tired, pay me off, and send me away, rather than actively firing the patron. Otherwise, it would appear too opportunistic, and what patron would dare to take me on in the future? Thirdly, I was still waiting for Raymond to get tired of me and give me a severance package.

So, I waited. I waited for Raymond to give me a sufficient reason to break up. But this past year, he seemed to have settled down; there hadn’t been any new women around him.

So, when I heard Raymond had given Celeste the two endorsement deals and a movie role he’d promised me, I breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, I had a chance to replace him.
