Yvette laughed lightly and took a sip of fruit wine.“Carter is really unlucky. He can’t even get rid of a woman?”“This woman seems easy to deal with, but she’s actually very clingy. She’s so shameless that she can do anything!”Julie spoke.Nicole paused. Her phone vibrated a little as someone replied to her message.She hooked the corners of her lips and calmly withdrew her gaze.About twenty minutes passed.No one noticed that another person came into the banquet hall. No one made a point to ask about a well-dressed gentry that did not stand out.In less than two minutes, there was a sudden commotion in the banquet hall.It seemed like someone smashed something.Yvette also heard it. She immediately put down the glass she was holding and pulled Nicole’s arm.“Let’s go and watch the show!”Nicole was dragged forward. She could already guess what happened.Many people gathered around to watch.This time, they were all watching openly.Ian stood there like it had nothin
The people in the hall were all whispering.They all witnessed how enthusiastic and clingy this woman was to Ian earlier.However, no one dared to be nosy, except for Yvette.Yvette deliberately laughed and said, “Wait, weren’t you trying to cling onto Ian earlier?”The girl’s face was stiff and glum. She was frightened by Riley’s cold and stern gaze and cowered for a moment.“Get out here!”Riley yelled.The girl had no choice but to get up obediently.She had no right to refuse.Riley had just taken two steps outside when he suddenly thought of something. He then walked up to Nicole and thanked her seriously.“If it wasn’t for you, I would’ve been cheated to death by this woman. Thanks!”Nicole raised her eyebrows. “You’re welcome.”Her initial purpose was not for Riley, but for Ian.When the delicate girl saw this scene, her eyes which were filled with hot tears looked a little shocked.She suddenly ran over and yelled at Nicole.“You’re the one who told him! You betr
Kirsi coughed at the side.“Mr. Carter, you should find a professional to act. Next time, you can look for me. Although my appearance fee is expensive, I provide good after-sales service.”Everyone was amused by Kirsi’s words and laughed out loud. The tense atmosphere earlier disappeared.Ian agreed. “Great! I’ll definitely hire you next time no matter how expensive it is!”Everyone joked and laughed until the end of the party.After all, it was Ian’s birthday.The crew also arranged a final cake cutting session.Although everyone was not that interested, they could not refuse since it was out of good intentions.The lights were turned off, and the surroundings dimmed. Only the dim wall lights set the mood.Everyone began to sing the birthday song, and Ian’s eyes were tinged with delight.After they finished singing, the director shouted from the side. “Make a wish!”Ian smiled, closed his eyes to hide the faint joy in his eyes, and seriously made a wish.Nicole and Julie a
Ian laughed and put the car keys in his pocket. “I drank earlier, so I can’t drive.”Kirsi also laughed.The two got into the car, and the driver in front froze for a moment.“Mr. Carter, where should we go?”Ian did not answer and looked at Kirsi.Kirsi closed her eyes and told the driver her address. The driver then started the car.It was not far since it was still on the set.Ian asked, “Isn’t the film over? What are you going back to shoot?”Kirsi opened her eyes slightly. Her eyes were watery and hazy, just like someone else’s eyes. At that moment, Ian stiffened slightly.“I have another film that starts shooting tomorrow. It’s nearby.”“You’re so busy?”“Continuously being on the set is a good thing. It just proves that I’m still popular.”Kirsi smiled. Her eyes were twinkling with some shrewdness.In their line of work, receiving films continuously was a type of recognition.Dying from exhaustion was better than being idle.Ian laughed and did not comment on it.
Shock was written all over Nicole’s face.“Were you mistaken?”Clayton’s face was calm as he shook his head.“No. Kirsi was Samuel’s female companion in one of the banquets I attended before. He introduced her then, so I have an impression of her.”For a moment, the good impression that Nicole had of Kirsi collapsed.Although it was common that certain relationships in the entertainment industry were bizarre, the people around Nicole were still considered normal.Kirsi’s performance tonight was quite respectable. Moreover, she was also from an affluent family, so Nicole felt more relatable to her.However, at this moment, all the good feelings she had were gone.Clayton saw Nicole’s complicated expression and pursed his lips.“Do you want milk tea?”Nicole shook her head.“How could this happen?”Clayton smiled. “Forget it. Don’t think about it. Why should you care so much about other people’s affairs? It’s just good to know.”Nicole nodded and sighed.“I wonder if that s
Lil Michael sheepishly looked away and took the opportunity to slip away.Nicole laughed and slapped Clayton’s arm, chiding him for being too harsh.“What’s the point of scaring him?”Clayton habitually smiled and took her hand. He squeezed the back of her hand and carried his daughter upstairs.A few days later, the news about Riley and that delicate girl spread.Everyone knew that Riley was duped, so Riley felt ashamed. He was not sad, just angry.After all, he was just playing around with that woman.Riley often had control over everything in this aspect, but now that he got tricked, he was so angry that he was annoyed at everything for several days.Although Riley did not like that girl much, he spent a lot of money on her because she was obedient and was good at sweet-talking.Now, Riley just felt like a fool.He put out the word so that the woman would not be able to get any benefits from his connections.Initially, the delicate girl could still rely on some people in
However, it was not difficult If Mitchell wanted to come.Clayton smiled without lacking courtesy.Mitchell smiled and took out one large and one small box.“A gift for your daughter and Ms. Stanton. I hope you’ll accept it.”Clayton’s gaze turned colder. He laughed somewhat playfully.“Sure. Thank you, Mr. Crawford.”Earlier, Mitchell was a little nervous as he was worried what he would do if Clayton refused.He did not expect Clayton to accept it so simply.Clayton took a small sip of the wine from the glass in his hand. His gaze was dull with no other emotions. “Please send my regards to the person who gave these gifts. My family and I wish that he’ll build his own family too.”Mitchell stiffened.Clayton had already guessed who sent the gifts.It was not surprising that Clayton would expose it.Mitchell smiled. “Yes, I’ll definitely convey it.”However, he did not dare to convey it.Eric did not even have a woman near him, so how would he build his own family?Was Cl
Clayton, who knew the reason, had a puzzled look on his face. “Oh? I think it’s quite normal.”“But she won’t let me touch your daughter!”Clayton looked at Samuel. “I won’t let you touch her either.”Samuel was speechless and thought, ‘Oh, then I guess I was overthinking it!”......Nicole carried Chatty, glanced at Lumi, and casually asked, “We met your sister the other day at Ian’s birthday party!”Lumi lowered her head to play with Chatty.When she heard this, she responded insouciantly.“I heard! She also has it quite hard on the set. I’ll go back and see her!”The corner of Nicole’s mouth twitched.“You guys are pretty close, huh? I heard that you’re not…”Lumi stood up straight and looked at Nicole speechlessly. She reprimanded Nicole in a soft voice, “How can you talk about someone else’s privacy so openly? In front of me, at that!”Nicole pursed her lips and sheepishly shut her mouth.However, she just wanted to remind Lumi to be wary of Kirsi.Julie was not far
