122 I Don’t Know Anything About Acting
To everyone’s surprise, Alice acted like she didn’t even see Irene.
“Mr. Quinn, let’s head to the office next door.”
Daniel immediately opened the nearby office and quickly tidied it up.
Levi smiled faintly. “Sure, I’ll follow Mrs. Alice’s lead.”
Eric didn’t say a word, but the fact that he didn’t even spare Irene a glance said everything.
Everyone around was practically sweating bullets.
Then, Alice walked straight into the office without so much as acknowledging Irene.
Irene looked like she was about to explode.
Her eyes, venomous and sharp, landed on Eric as if waiting for him to back down.
Eric didn’t speak at first, which made everyone hold their breath.
They were terrified he’d side with family and throw Alice under the bus.
However-
As soon as Alice entered the office, he gave a firm order to the people around him.
“Anyone not involved, clear out. Don’t let this get in the way of work.”
Everyone was stunned.

So Mr. Nolan isn’t worried about upsetting Mrs. Irene . He’s simply worried his wife might get caught in the crossfire !
Irene clutched her chest in fury.
Her eyes stayed locked on Eric, filled with hatred.
But she was so furious she couldn’t even speak.
People around her grew worried and called for medical help just in case.
Soon, paramedics came and helped Irene out of the building. The rest of the staff quickly dispersed.
Only the IT department staff were left standing there, completely dazed.
Classic Mr. Nolan .
He doesn’t hold back in the slightest , shutting the door on every possible way out .
Meanwhile in the office, Alice looked completely composed.

There wasn’t the slightest sign that she knew Irene had fallen sick from sheer anger.
Eric entered just as calmly.

Levi wasn’t sure why, but watching how relaxed the two of them were actually made him feel excited.
It felt like… he’d bet on the right people.
“Mr. Quinn, go ahead and tell us your terms.”
What Levi said wasn’t much different from what he’d outlined over the phone the night before.
The reason he’d threatened the Nolan Group was simple–he just wanted the company to compensate the fans who’d received faulty products.
Those fans didn’t come easy. They’d been with him through thick and thin.
Alice nodded. “We can agree to that.”
It wasn’t an unreasonable request.
So, the deal was finalized without much back and forth.
But Levi suddenly hesitated.
“Thing is, I heard the fashion department is actually run by Mrs. Irene.”
Alice gave a soft smile.
“We can just call a board meeting to transfer the authority.”
Levi let out a breath of relief. “Mrs. Alice really is impressive.”
He hadn’t expected her to have that kind of hold over all the Nolan shareholders–let alone the steer the board itself.
Even Ruby and Irene wouldn’t dare make such bold claims.
At that instant, he felt even more sure about the idea he’d had before.
So he stood up and turned to Alice with the utmost respect.

“Mrs. Alice… I wonder if I can ask you for one more favor regarding the fashion department matter?”
“Go on.”
Alice never agreed to things lightly, especially when it came to other people’s requests.
She had to know what they were asking first.
Levi stood up.
“Here’s the thing–I have another audition coming up in a few days over at Risa’s side. I was hoping Mrs. Alice could give me some coaching on my acting before then.”

Alice let out a short, amused laugh.
“But I don’t know anything about acting.”
Levi gave a polite smile.
“I was hoping Mrs. Alice could give me some tips from the audience’s perspective.

“I know you’re busy, Mrs. Alice. If the board needs my help with anything, I’d be happy to assist. I’ll do whatever I can to help save your time.”
Alice glanced at him with a faint smile.
Her gaze lingered on Levi, assessing him.
Honestly, based on the videos Risa had sent her, Levi did have some acting ability.
Compared to those pretty–boy actors who coasted by on looks, he was definitely better.
But compared to her standards? He still had a long way to go.
She gave it some thought.
“I’ve been quite busy lately, so I can only give you one day.”
The moment she spoke, Kaleb nearly exploded.
He’d been a manager for years and had never seen a nobody this full of himself.
But Levi looked like he’d just won the lottery.
“Sure. I’ll do whatever you say.”
Alice waved him off.
“Also, I’ll introduce you to a coach.”
Levi was stunned, then his face lit up with an uncontrollable smile. “Thank you, Mrs. Alice.”
Kaleb let out a cold snort, clearly unimpressed.
There were tons of so–called acting coaches in the industry.
But there were hardly any with real skills.
The only one truly considered a master was Ryan Warren–Zachary’s legendary mentor.
He had debuted young and peaked early. No one had managed to surpass him in years.
Later, he started his own entertainment company, and every actor he trained was known for real talent.
Zachary had started out as a boy idol, a typical poster boy.
But by some twist of fate, he crossed paths with Ryan.

Ryan saw potential in him and took him under his wing.
One year later, Zachary’s new drama aired, and his performance became legendary.
Even to this day, he still stood head and shoulders above the rest.
