Since establishing Studio M, Gwenda had amassed a considerable following. However, her identity being known to the Evans family prevented her from openly recruiting as before. She shifted her strategy, secretly seeking a buyer for KG Entertainment's shares. This was a slow, deliberate process. Meanwhile, concerned about Alisha's well-being on set, Gwenda visited her periodically.

One day, after a meeting, she drove to see Alisha. Alisha's assistant, Ember, greeted her.

"Gwenda, you've arrived at the perfect time. Alisha just finished filming and is resting."

"Take me to her."

"Certainly."

Gwenda followed Ember to the actress's resting area, but Alisha was gone. Ember searched frantically.

"Gwenda, Alisha is missing!"

Gwenda found Ember's anxiety puzzling. "It's a large space; she's probably just wandering around. Why are you so upset?"

"The lead actress, Tia, has been repeatedly summoning Alisha. Tia constantly belittles Alisha, exploiting her seniority!"

"What?" Gwenda raised an eyebrow.

"I fear it's happened again," Ember said anxiously. "What should we do? Alisha suffers every time she's with Tia. What if this time?"

"Don't worry," Gwenda reassured her. "It may not be what you think. Let's search. If she's with Tia, I'll handle it."

Ember resumed her search. Before she returned, Gwenda noticed other crew members running towards the dressing room. Sensing trouble, she followed.

Entering the dressing room, she heard a sharp voice:

"Why are you so stupid? You don't even know how to pour tea! Do you know there are only ten of these cups in the world? A limited edition! My favorite, and now it's broken! What now?"

It was Alisha's voice.

Gwenda pushed through the crowd, frowning at the scene. Ember rushed to her side.

"Gwenda"

"What happened?" Gwenda asked.

"Tia says Alisha broke her cup and demands payment."

Before Ember finished, Tia angrily pointed at Alisha. "You said you'd pay, but can you afford it? It's a limited edition! No longer in production!"

"I'm sorry" Alisha mumbled.

"Sorry?" Tia's face reddened. "Why are you so stupid? You trash!" She raised her hand to strike Alisha.

Gwenda instantly intervened, grabbing Tia's wrist.

"Ms. Robinson, calm down!"

Tia's expression darkened. "Who are you? Why are you interfering?"

"I'm Alisha's boss, Gwenda Evans!" Gwenda released Tia's wrist, glancing at the broken glass. "I understand Alisha broke your cup."

"You saw it, so why ask?" Tia yelled.

Gwenda rubbed her ears. "Ms. Robinson, I can hear you. No need to shout." (Laughter from the onlookers.)

"You" Tia glared at Gwenda, then Alisha. "I don't care. You will compensate me! Or else, I won't let you off!"

Gwenda raised an eyebrow. Alisha, looking worried, whispered, "Gwenda, it's okay. I'll handle it."

Gwenda responded, "Handle it? By standing here and letting her hit you?"
