Chapter 522
However, Bella had no plans to do that at all. Tammy had been her assistant for more than a year, yet
all she did was fetch coffee and suchlike for Bella.
Tammy made friends with other celebrity assistants after working for Bella on the set for so long. They
were earning at least twenty thousand even though their bosses were less popular than Bella, yet Bella
only paid her eight thousand.
Eight thousand sounded decent, but Rivera was a very expensive place to live in. Tammy would not
have a lot of money left after paying rent and her basic living expenses.
She talked to Bella about getting a raise a few times now, but Bella would always reject her by saying
that she was still young and inexperienced.
Tammy did not have a degree. She would have no other choice but to apply for some lowly job and
physically demanding job to earn a living if she were to leave Bella.
She would not have left the factory for Bella if she could put up with those jobs.

what money could do.
However, Tammy knew very well that Bella was only trying to make her feel better for being her
scapegoat by saying that she got her a role.
After all, Bella’s career would be greatly affected if anybody ever found out that she was the one behind
that account.
To her fans, Bella was a friendly, innocent, and very humble lady. One could already imagine what
would happen to her if somebody knew that she was the one who initiated the cyberbully.
Tammy was not stupid. She knew that she would not go very far in her acting career if she really did
take the fall for Bella because people would eventually find out about this if she ever got more popular.
Bella had been working in this industry for some time, and she knew exactly what would happen to
Tammy's future after she took the fall for her.
However, she figured that Tammy was still young, and she was very eager to join show business. So,
she decided to lie to her.
Otherwise, why would she wait so long to finally recommend her to the production crew if she had the
intention to help her?
Tammy had seen too much after a year of working for Bella, and she found out that acting was not
meant for her at all. Bella could only be an actress because somebody else spent a lot of money to
support her. However, Tammy was just a nobody who did not have any professional qualifications. So,
who would do the same to her as that person did for Bella?
Things would not be so bad if they had won the lawsuit, but she would have a criminal record if they
lost. Tammy just could not find a reason for herself to be Bella's scapegoat.
Tammy was sneering inwardly when she heard what Bella said, but she hid it well.
Then, she replied, "Bella, don't worry. I'm not going to sell you out. I've told my family about this, and
my mother agrees with this too. She said it's not easy for someone in the family to be successful, and
you can't have your career ruined just because of this. But, my father is not very happy about it. He's
worried that my reputation will be tarnished and that I'll have a hard time finding a husband if I have a
criminal record. Besides, I didn't really send much money home after I came here, and my father would

often make a fuss about it at your mother's house. I'm afraid that he'll blurt out about this when he does
that again."
The look on Bella's face changed.
Obviously, she knew that Tammy’s father went to look for her parents before. Her mother had also told
her to give Tammy a raise more than once, but she would always brush it off.
It was not about money. Bella did that because she had other intentions.
Her family did not have it better than Tammy's family, and Tammy’s parents would look down on them.
However, their attitude changed completely and asked their daughter to go to her after she got famous.
She just could not let this opportunity to take revenge on them slip away.
She hired Tammy as her personal assistant, and she would not let her get in touch with anything that
had to do with work. By doing so, Tammy would not be able to learn anything about the industry. Bella
only wanted Tammy to see what money can do without ever having the ability to earn any.
She thought everything was under her control and that she would be able to get rid of Tammy after she
took the fall for her. However, she did not expect that Tammy would tell her family about it.
Then, Bella said with an awful look on her face, "Didn't I ask you not to tell anybody about this?"
