Brennas schedule was even more hectic than olivia had imagined and she had to remind the directors and producers and Kris that they still bad to play by child labor laws even if they had to put her in less scenes to do it. Olivia knew this was just Kris way of trying to get her to give up on her daughter, but she never would again. She promised Brenna that from now on she would always be there and protect  her and she meant it.

Olivia was helping Brenna dress after her final scene that day. Olivia was happy they had atleast one day off tomorrow  so Brenna and herself could rest. Kris had other plans as he knocked on her locked dressing room door Olivia answered and sighed "what is it Kris?"

"Just wanted to let you know Brenna has 3 television interviews tomorrow." He smirked.

"What? No she needs a rest. You said tomorrow was free." Olivia glared.

"Well now it's not. We need to get word out about the movie so she has 2 Italian interviews  and one American one at the embassy." He continued "I mean unless you want to break her contract." He smirked once again.

"Well Kris if you really read the contract and knew child labor laws you would know child actors are required at least one day off a week and Brenna has worked every day this week." She countered.

"Well it's too late they are already scheduled and I know you and Brenna wouldn't want fans to start lashing out because she became a difficult star. I mean the press can be so mean when a star does something they don't like." He chuckled.

"I will be bringing this up to judge linden." She glared "oh and Kris just a fair warning but I heard the new york press is not being so kind to you you right now. Turns out a couple more girls have come forward. Guess you don't have the hold over them like you thought you did." She hissed.

He growled "we shall see won't we Ms. Benson." He then stormed out and olivia sighed as Brenna came out from the bathroom "mama? Is everything ok?" She asked.

"It will be sweetheart but it looks like we have to work tomorrow." Olivia admitted.

Brenna sighed sadly. Being an actress was feeling like more of a chore than any fun anymore. A few tears formed in her eyes.

Olivia noticed this and it broke her heart and she pulled her daughter in to a tight embrace. "I'm so sorry sweetie." She consoled her daughter as she cried on her chest.

Olivia then took her back to the suite and got some food sent up. She watched Brenna eat very little and olivia tried to convince her to eat more but she wouldn't so olivia took her to the bed with her and just lay holding her daughter who at only 6 seemed to be sinkinging in to a depression. Once Brenna was asleep she called Trevor and told him how all this was affecting Brenna. "I'm supposed to be protecting her and keeping her happy and he is just making her miserable. There has to be something we can do Trevor I can't watch him destroy my little girl like this" she said trying to control her own emotions.

"I'll make a call to judge linden and see what we can do." Trevor replied.

"I have to do something she can't go on like this for much longer." Olivia pleaded.

"I know liv. I'll call you tomorrow." He said before hanging up.
