Adored Stardom: Away from Mr. Hamilton Chapter 115
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

"What fire?"In the middle of the night, a video quietly crawled its way up the trending list. The hot topic was titled Gigi Bullied in Her New Role. As soon as Gigi's name appeared, the topic immediately gained traction. After all, she was currently the hot topic for all the online spectators, blessed with a powerful family background, and possibly being the woman of a future entertainment mogul. With such a strong backing, it was surprising that she was facing such bullying in her new role. Internet users flocked to the scene, and upon clicking, a video was presented.The video was from the day of the rehearsal, albeit edited and clipped, transforming the content into a sequence where the director asked Gigi to support Wyneth in a rehearsal. Consequently, Gigi, considerate as ever, went along with the request, only for Wyneth to audaciously overshadow her. The video even included a clip of Gigi appearing unwell. The entire edited video gave the impression of Gigi's understanding na

"A secondary Facebook account?" Wyneth felt a touch of confusion when she heard this.Yoyo stormed into her room without hesitation, firmly closing the door behind her before saying with clear seriousness, "Someone's stirred up a video claiming you're using your connections to bully Gigi. Gigi's fans are livid. They've exposed your alternate account.""Go on Facebook, now."'Facebook?' Wyneth went back to retrieve her phone and logged into her Facebook account. She had not used this app much after downloading it. She mainly just followed Amelia, with the two of them quietly sharing bits and pieces of their everyday lives. She had not anticipated that her alternate account could be exposed. The usual notifications were primarily from Amelia, along with a few minor followers who had taken notice of her day-to-day posts, typically amounting to just a handful of comments. But now, her comments, mentions, and followers were over a thousand. Wyneth could not resist an arched eyebrow as he

"I heard," Hayden sighed, thinking she might tell him not to touch her."What do you think?" Wyneth asked."Me?" A small smile formed on Hayden's lips as he gently kissed her. "It's whatever you want."Wyneth's eyes sparkled. "So, you'll listen to me?"Hayden hesitated. "Except...""What?" Wyneth's tone shifted to annoyance. "You aren't backing out, right? You just said it's up to me.""It's not that I'm backing out," Hayden said, "I just have one condition. I'll listen to you any other time, but there's one thing I can't do.""What thing?" Wyneth asked.Hayden leaned in and whispered in her ear. Wyneth's face turned a shade of pink, and she pushed him away, gasping."You're such a creep!" she exclaimed.Hayden took her wrist, drawing her close and kissed her earlobe. "What's the matter? Isn't this okay for us? Don't you think so?" As he kissed her, he began to unbutton her collar. His voice was low and smooth. "Just listen to me this one time. For everything else, whatever y

On the ride home from the hotel, tears rolled down Wyneth's cheeks nonstop. This time, though, she was not alone by the car window. She was nestled in Hayden's arms. He wiped away each tear, comforting her all the way."Don't cry. It's just a mix-up, okay? He said he's fine and will be around for a long time," Hayden whispered.Despite his soothing words, Wyneth's tears did not cease. Seeing this, Hayden, filled with concern, gently asked, "Is this not what you wanted?"Confused, Wyneth looked up. "What are you talking about? I'm beyond happy he's alive."Hayden smiled, gently wiping her eyes. "Then why are you still crying?""I'm crying because..." Wyneth bit her lower lip, with Hector's words echoing in her mind.She had always been upset, believing her father had not wanted her years ago. But just as she was about to leave, Cindy pulled her aside. "Wyneth," her mother said gently, "your dad did want you. When I divorced him, I had just one demand.""What was it?""I wanted o

Everyone was silent. Just before entering the private dining room, Wyneth blurted out, "Is he really dying?" Hearing this, Andrew's steps halted. Before he could answer, she added, "How long does he have? Why didn't anyone say anything before?"Andrew sighed and turned around. "Is that why you're here?" Wyneth pursed her lips. A wave of uncertainty washed over Andrew. 'This mom and daughter,' he thought, 'they're here because they got it all wrong. Mom is acting differently toward Dad, too. She was all tough before, but now she's gone soft, probably thinks Dad is dying. And Dad? He's just laughing, like he's having a good time with all this mess.' Andrew hesitated, then said, "Let's talk inside." He chose to hold his words for now.Hayden and Wyneth walked into the private dining room. Cindy was passing dishes to Hector. As they entered, every pair of eyes turned their way. A divorced couple and six sons stared at Hayden. Used to the predictable world of leadership, Hayden now ventur

In the end, Wyneth decided to stay. She could see the honesty in Matilda's words and knew she was sincere. Recognizing Matilda as not her birth mother made Wyneth realize she should not hold her to the same expectations. With acceptance, she focused on building her future with Hayden, freeing herself from doubts and reservations.With Wyneth's decision to stay, Matilda's heart swelled with joy and immense honor. Realizing Wyneth's sincere intentions, not merely chasing the Hamilton family's wealth, transformed their relationship. Matilda's newfound warmth toward her was evident. Gifts, once withheld, now freely flowed into Wyneth's room. At auctions, Matilda eagerly bid on items for Wyneth. During jewelry store visits, Matilda generously bought her gifts, swiping her credit card without hesitation, and welcoming her nearly as a daughter.Wyneth received a call from her mother. Even after so many years, her mom, Cindy, was still bossy. "Your father isn't doing well. You should come to

Just at that moment, a knock sounded from outside."Sir, your mother is back," someone said.Hayden could feel the person in his arms stiffen, her body tensed. "Don't worry, I'm right here," he reassured her softly."Your mother heard that Ms. Walford is here. She wants to see her," the voice from outside continued.'Meet me?' Wyneth bit her lower lip lightly. 'Why does she want to see me? To insult me again?'"She hasn't eaten yet. She can meet her after eating," Hayden said, gently turning down the request for Wyneth. Outside, everything fell silent."Won't this offend your mom?" Wyneth's voice filled with concern as she asked.Hayden looked at Wyneth, pausing for a moment before speaking. "I know she's been mean to you," he said. Wyneth's eyes widened in surprise. "I'm sorry." He bent down and lightly kissed her forehead. "You've been treated unfairly." Seeing her blink, he added, "Let's eat first. After that, I'll go with you."Wyneth was a bit nervous, but not as anxious a

Hector was speechless as Cindy mistakenly thought he was ill. Seeing her worried face, he felt the misunderstanding might not be so terrible. He shared a look with Andrew. His eldest son caught on immediately, giving a subtle head shake. Understanding the signal not to mislead Cindy any further, Hector hesitated before gently asking, "Can I see her? Even just a glance?" It had been many years since he last saw his daughter up close, and she had not called him "Dad" in all that time.Cindy, lost in thought, stared at Hector before finally nodding as if admitting defeat. "Fine, I'll call her."Later, Wyneth fell asleep. Upon waking, she found herself on the large bed in Hayden's bedroom. She saw Hayden sitting at the sofa, busy with a computer.Hearing her movement, Hayden immediately got up and walked toward her. "Awake? Thirsty or hungry? Want something to eat first?"Having slept through lunch, Wyneth was hungry, so she nodded. "Sure."After Hayden left to give some instructions,

'He shifts moods so fast,' Wyneth thought as she stared at her unattended ringing phone.Observing her delay, Hayden asked, "What's going on?"In his mind, a thought flickered, 'She seems reluctant to take the call. Perhaps there's tension with her eldest brother?'"He's calling now; must be about him," Wyneth whispered."About your dad?"They had decided to be together, and Wyneth did not hide anything from him. "Yeah, my dad."Hayden did not utter a single word."I don't like him," Wyneth softly said, staring at her ringing phone. "Answer it for me and say I'm asleep," she whispered to Hayden as she cozied up to him. Without a word, Hayden picked up the phone and conveyed the message before ending the call.After ending the call, a curious Hector asked, "Well? Where is she?"Understanding the situation, Andrew said, "She didn't answer the phone; she's asleep."Despite hearing the words, Hector felt something was off. He sighed, "She really doesn't like me.""Don't worry, D

"Trouble recognizing faces? What do you mean?" Hector Spencer asked.Andrew sighed. "Dad, he's Wyneth's ex-husband."Hector's eyes widened in surprise. "He is? No wonder I didn't recognize him. I must've barely seen him before.""Is that what's bothering you?" Andrew asked."What else would it be?" Hector replied, still taken aback.Andrew sighed. His dad, Hector, was good at many things and never stayed mad at people. But there was one funny thing about him: he could never remember faces of people outside their family. "You don't mind?" Andrew asked.Smiling, Hector replied, "Mind what? She's told everyone, so she must be ready. I've never been the dad she favored. If I object now, won't she dislike me even more?"Andrew was left speechless by this. He had not expected Hector to have no objections. "Seems like someone doesn't need your approval."Changing the topic, Hector asked, "What about your mom? Is she back?" He had been living alone for many years.Andrew exhaled. "I t

Everyone rushed to check out Wyneth's Facebook and, sure enough, they saw her admitting to the relationship, along with a freshly taken selfie.At first, Wyneth only wanted to write a post. But after Hayden tasted the joy of going public with their relationship, he suggested taking a wefie for the official announcement. Feeling his excitement, Wyneth agreed. They posted the wefie on Facebook, captioned "Officially Together". Yet, Hayden was not done.
