Chapter 41 Cutting Ties

• “Natalie, I don’t care what distractions are swirling around you right now. Focus. Get through the audition, nail it, and: Land. That. Role. Anything less will be a disappointment, and I don’t tolerate disappointment.”
• A disappointed Anya is a force of nature, one I’d rather not face. She hangs up without waiting for a response, leaving her expectations lingering in the air.
