Benedict was still engaging Wyneth in conversation. "Which Stello Studios are you filming at? Once I'm discharged, I'll come to visit you on set.""Grandpa, Stello Studios can be quite chaotic and crowded, it might not be suitable for you right now. Better focus on recuperating first."Gigi was green with envy listening to their exchange. Before Wyneth had arrived, she had invited Benedict to visit Stello Studios multiple times, but he had never agreed. Now, he was voluntarily offering to visit Wyneth on set, and she was even declining. Just like the previous Black Card incident, what Gigi yearned for and waited for anxiously was easily handed to Wyneth, who did not even value it.'It's infuriating!'Gigi decided to stay a little while longer outside the hospital room, intending to taunt Wyneth when she left. But to her surprise, Hayden was accompanying Wyneth out of the room.Hayden, tall and sturdy with dark eyes and sharp features, walked beside Wyneth in silence. Compared to h
Upon hearing that, Hayden's brows furrowed even further. He cast a glance at Wyneth, studying her face. Her expression was nonchalant, yet her gaze was locked onto Gigi.'Is she trying to dodge me using Gigi?'Hayden's lips thinned as a thought crossed his mind. Eventually, he responded in a grave tone, "Well, I'd better head out then."Gigi was quick to respond with a feigned cordiality. "You should get some rest, Hayden. Drive safe, okay?"Hayden's gaze lingered on Wyneth's fair, yet impassive face. He had directed his previous statement at her, but she remained indifferent.Gigi found her aloof demeanor hard to swallow.She seethed, 'How dare she treat Hayden this way? And why isn't Hayden angry about it?'Once Hayden left, Gigi immediately dropped her facade, her words becoming pointed and harsh."Shameless woman, clinging around after your divorce."Wyneth merely responded with a faint smile. "Once you've secured your place at Hayden's side in marriage, you're welcome to
The young woman laid eyes on Wyneth, stunned by her striking beauty. She quickly composed herself. "Hello, are you Ms. Walford? I-I'm Bruce's assistant. He asked me to—""Yes, I know. Where's he now?""There's too many people around here. Let me escort you."With that, the young woman promptly took Wyneth's luggage. Wyneth was about to decline the offer, but the young woman, lost in her own thoughts, had already begun to pull the luggage, paying little attention to Wyneth.Bruce's car was parked at a distance for anonymity, making it quite a walk. Throughout the journey, Wyneth noticed the assistant stealing glances at her from time to time, looking away quickly as if she was scared of being caught. Wyneth was slightly amused.'Where did Bruce find this cute little assistant?'Soon, Bruce's assistant led her to a remote location with no one around. Wyneth recognized the license plate and got into the car. The interior was dim, and as she entered, she found herself meeting a pair
'Why didn't I tell you?' Likely because doing so would lead to the situation she found herself in now: a barrage of questions. Wyneth gazed out the window, her voice barely above a whisper. "I wanted to make my own decisions."Her soft-spoken words sent a pang through Bruce's heart. He pursed his lips, ultimately managing to respond. "I know you're capable of making your own decisions, but the entertainment industry is a vast whirlpool. Do you even know what you'll be facing in the future? What if the manager you've chosen isn't reliable? What if the company isn't reliable?""He's pretty reliable," Wyneth replied.She remembered the day she had a few drinks; some memories were fragmented, but some were clear. She remembered overhearing a conversation between Shaun and Hayden in the elevator. Given Hayden's status, Shaun could have chosen not to speak, but he did, and he even waited for her in his car outside the hotel the next day."Who exactly is it?" Bruce pressed."Shaun."At
The entire reason for Bruce's visit was his inability to shake off his concerns for Wyneth. When he learned she had signed with Shaun, he felt somewhat relieved. Their families had been adversaries for many years, yet neither had resorted to shady tactics. It wasn't just Bruce and Luke, their entire teams wouldn't stoop to such underhanded measures. Therefore, there was nothing wrong with being under Shaun's wing."Whatever you need, just let me know," Bruce had initially wanted to say that even though he did not rule the entertainment industry, he could still provide Wyneth with whatever resources she needed.But considering her new-found independent nature, he swallowed his words and instead asked, "Have you had dinner yet?"Wyneth shook her head. "I had a quick lunch on the plane.""Let's go. I'll take you to dinner."Upon hearing this, Gordon chimed in at an inconvenient moment. "Uh... Bruce, don't forget about the engagement you postponed."The commitment was initially set f
No sooner had Wyneth returned to the set than Yoyo came looking for her. The mystery in her eyes was a dead giveaway that she was here for some juicy gossip. Sure enough, as soon as Yoyo entered, she started yapping excitedly."I saw a social media post saying Gigi went to Acrofburg to visit Mr. Hamilton Sr. The post suggested it's like meeting the parents, a way to earn brownie points. They're hinting that a wedding might be in the works."Wyneth had to marvel at the storytelling ability and wild imagination of social media. Keeping a poker face, she began unpacking her suitcase, letting Yoyo prattle on beside her."Out of all the beauties in the entertainment industry, why did Mr. Hamilton choose Gigi? I don't know why, but Gigi just seems like bad news," Yoyo continued, not bothering whether Wyneth was responding. "Mandy was awful in her role; she should've been fired a long time ago. Without her powerful backers, would she still be here? When she left, all she had to do was play
"Actually, you're the only one whose promotional photos haven't been shot yet. Everyone else had theirs done before, but because we changed the actress, we need to make up for it now. The crew had some strong feelings about the switch initially, but the director noticed it's been quieting down these days, so he decided it was time to catch up on the promotional photos," explained one of the crew members.Wyneth nodded, acknowledging the situation.Shaun studied Wyneth's face carefully, then raised his eyes to ask, "How many outfits will she be shooting in today?""Roughly two.""Sounds good. Two outfits won't take too much time."The two outfits chosen for Lucienne's promotional shoot were the same color. Since the character had a distinct preference for red, the crew had not wasted any effort on the color of her costumes, focusing more on the style. The first was a layered red tulle skirt, with a crossover collar on the upper half, cinched at the waist and flared at the bottom. A
[I'm cracking up. Do we seriously have people thinking Gigi is jealous of someone else's beauty? Please, she's drop-dead gorgeous herself, alright? People only get jealous when they lack something. Why would she be envious when she's got it?][These promotional photos are usually meticulously edited over and over, add make-up to the mix, and even an ugly duckling can turn into a swan, and you're praising this?][Hmm, some people not only replace others, but now even hire paid trolls to belittle their seniors' beauty. Isn't that a bit too desperate for quick success?]In the beginning, the comments below the official social media post were from the audience following the show. But because the drama had not started airing, most of the followers were fans of the male and female leads, and a few were fans of the supporting actors. Those who were genuinely interested in the show because of its own merits were pitifully few.Initially, Gigi's fans were indeed pleasantly surprised when th
