She averted her gaze and coyly smiled, "Absolutely not."Damien Wolfe is the wealthiest and most influential individual in New York; how could she underestimate him?Seth turned to Damien, "Alright, I'll leave the video to you.""Got it."Seth added, "Furthermore, we need to find a means to expose Ciara's hidden motives for assisting Jane in averting calamities."Damien looked at him, "Let me clarify what occurred that night."Upon hearing this, Jane immediately objected, "I don't believe this approach will be effective."Seth and Damien simultaneously glanced at her.Jane looked at Damien with a serious expression, "If you help me clarify, others will undoubtedly suspect that I am involved with you. Aren't you concerned that our relationship will be exposed?"Damien gazed at her with his light brown eyes, which were razor-sharp and could seemingly penetrate one's soul, making it impossible to conceal anything.Seth pondered for a moment before nodding, "Jane's apprehension is justifi
Seth stared at Damien in silence, giving the impression that they had some sort of romantic relationship and even the devil couldn't tell what was going on between them."Alright, I'm leaving," Seth nodded slightly at Jane, turned around, and headed towards the door."I'll see you out," Jane followed him and saw him off at the door.When she returned, she found Damien still sitting on the sofa, pressing his phone."Thank you," she said.Damien's lips twitched. "I don't accept verbal thanks.""Then I'll cook for you," Jane said, feeling a little hungry since she hadn't had breakfast."You dare to try it!" Damien's face suddenly darkened.Jane's heart skipped a beat. Why was he so intimidating? Her breakfast wasn't that bad."Okay, I won't do it. I'll go upstairs to rest."Jane walked towards the stairs, but suddenly remembered something. She turned her head and asked Damien, "Why did you give Ciara drinks that day?"Damien turned to look at her, his eyes slightly raised. "Guess."Jane
Jane spent some time in the room before heading downstairs. She found Damien still sitting in the living room and asked him, "Aren't you going to work?""I'll go after lunch." Damien looked at Jane, who appeared ready to leave, and added, "Eve is cooking. You should eat before heading out."Jane pondered for a moment before asking, "Did you come back to help me today since you don't want to work?"Damien looked at her, his lips slightly curling up. "Yes."Jane regretted asking the question as she found herself tongue-tied.Thankfully, Damien didn't press her further.After lunch, Damien left for work, and Jane took a taxi to the recording studio. She felt bored during the ride and decided to check Twitter. To her surprise, she found a pile of comments and mentions.As someone with 150 million followers on all social media, she had a staggering number of comments on her latest Twitter post. However, when she clicked on the comments section, she saw a slew of personal attacks.Kitty Paw
Jane planned to practice her singing in the morning, but she sensed someone watching her from behind. She turned around but found no one there. Due to her past experiences, she was highly sensitive to such situations, so she immediately called Seth. This was a serious matter, so Seth informed Damien about it. Damien listened intently to Seth's phone call and instructed him to investigate the matter without scaring Jane, whom he considered timid. He arranged for someone to protect her and left to attend to other matters.Later that day, Seth arranged for someone to escort Jane to and from the hospital and the recording studio. Jane was disturbed by the insults and death threats she received from her black fans online. She wondered if all fans were so crazy these days. At the airport, Ciara arrived and was handed a list of entries and songs by the "Voice of Dreams" program group. Salem Blue also informed her that Jane would be appearing as a contestant singer, which surprised Ciara. The
At present, the makeup artists are occupied, and all the participants are anxious. When Jane arrived, no one took notice of her.However, when she entered the fitting room to change, she encountered a female participant.The female participant was surprised to see Jane and exclaimed, "Aren't you Jane Austen?"Suddenly, everyone's attention was drawn to Jane as she is a well-known personality with a reputable body of work.Jane responded with a calm smile, "Hello, I am Jane Austen."One of the participants nodded in greeting, and then their attention shifted away from her.However, Jane overheard her name and Ciara's name being discussed. Someone remarked, "Isn't she an actress? Why is she participating in a singing competition?"Jane spotted an empty seat in the front row and proceeded to sit down.Suddenly, a girl rushed over and sat in front of her."I have been waiting for a long time, please hurry up and assist me with my transformation," said the girl to the makeup artist beside
Hannah observed Ciara's back and scowled, "Why is she so overbearing?"She turned her head to check on Jane, "Are you alright?"Jane shook her head, "I'm okay, aren't you here?"Hannah chuckled, "Then I'll be of assistance.""Not just a little helpful, be very useful." Jane laughed lightly."By the way, Seth is looking for you, and we're about to start the performance." Hannah informed.Jane nodded, "Okay."Inside the private room, a group of individuals sat on the sofa, drinking and chatting. Only one person sat on a small stool in front, gazing at the big-screen TV in front of them.Tuchel couldn't resist saying: "I told you, Felix, how old are you? And you still watch this boring talent show.""What do you know? My goddess is on today." Felix snorted, "I have to cheer for my goddess.""Insane!" Tuchel was a little speechless, looking at Damien who sat beside him and said, "Damien, talk to him. We're here to watch the football game, not this terrible audition."Damien leaned on the
In an instant, the camera on the display screen switched to the background, revealing ten contestants in front of the audience.These contestants were all amateur singers, not well-known, so they were unfamiliar to everyone.However, soon a familiar face was spotted among them - Jane Austen.The audience at the scene started buzzing with excitement, while those watching the live broadcast outside the venue exploded with comments, and the barrage almost covered the entire screen."Is this some kind of mistake? Why is this girl participating?""Number One actually want to sing too! If I'd known, I would have definitely bought a ticket to see it.""This is interesting. I'm curious to see how Jane Austen sings."……In the private room, Felix was furious when he saw the derogatory comments about Jane in the barrage."Damn it, why are there so many brain-dead people now? How dare they insult my goddess! I want to kill them all!"Tuchel watched the TV, feeling a little exasperated. "Can you
The second participant, Joel Swindell, performed "Midnight Singing"."Only in the middle of the night can we bare our souls, release our innocence, and tenderly kiss each other."After the performance, Patti gave his direct opinion, "Overall, the singing effect of the song was good, and you displayed great skill in singing, but it lacked depth."Joaquin added, "I think the only problem was the lack of emotional integration."McKaley praised, "You have great singing talent, and you performed well. Of course, there were minor flaws. I believe you can overcome them."In the end, Joel received three clearance tickets and two negative votes. Ciara voted for the last clearance ticket.The live broadcast barrage exaggeratedly praised Ciara, stating that she had saved future singers, and that Patti and Joaquin were too strict.Next up, the third participant, Sigourney Weaver, was too nervous to perform and only received a sympathy ticket from Ciara.However, Chael Sonnen, the fourth participa
After exiting the lift, Jane suddenly inquired, "Mr. Sala, who was that lady that welcomed you at the elevator entrance just now? She seems familiar!"Sala gazed at her intently, his eyes filled with confusion.Director Hisham followed closely behind and stated, "That's Manager Archana from the Design Department. She is a young and talented individual. She won the International Jewelry Design Award at the age of 21. Do you know her?"Jane smiled faintly, "She was my senior.""You're also an art major?" Director Hisham was slightly taken aback.Jane nodded, "Yes, but I dropped out of school.""That's a shame, otherwise we could have been colleagues." Director Hisham chuckled.Jane simply smiled and said nothing. At that time, she had a preference for oil painting, but she could also draw animes.Of course, she had tried her hand at jewelry design as well, since there was a design award with a substantial cash prize.Unfortunately, the design drawings she had created vanished, and when
In the morning, at the International Olympic Committee (IOC) headquarters in Switzerland, Seth escorted Jane into the hall.Director Hisham immediately recognized them and greeted them, "Mr. Seth, Miss Jane.""Director Hisham, good morning. Why did you personally come to pick me up?" Seth asked with a smile."It's the least I could do." Director Hisham smiled back. "Please.""Thank you." Seth led Jane towards the elevator.After exiting the elevator, Jane followed Seth into the adjacent conference room and spotted a familiar figure.He was leaning against the door, engrossed in his phone conversation.Director Hisham approached him and said, "Mr. Baker, Mr. Seth and Ms. Jane have arrived."Sala Baker glanced up, his gaze landing on Seth and Jane. "Long time no see."Jane nodded in agreement, "Indeed, it's been a while."Seth looked at them both in surprise, "Do you two know each other?""We've met before," Jane explained.Seth accepted her answer without further inquiry.He patted Sal
Paparazzi? Jane's expression changed slightly, she instinctively glanced around."Don't look, they're behind me." Anderson took off his coat and covered Jane's head, "Come with me."He grabbed Jane's wrist, and the two walked directly to the parking area.After entering the car, Anderson said, "I need to shake off the celebrity photographers first, so I can take you back to the hospital later.""It's alright." Jane's eyebrows furrowed slightly, she looked at Anderson, "Did they capture us just now?""They probably did, don't worry, I'll handle it." Anderson said reassuringly.Jane sensed that it wouldn't be as simple as he claimed. If the two of them were caught on camera together, the headlines would undoubtedly be unavoidable tomorrow.Although Anderson had only been in the industry for a few years, he had a significant following and a large fan base, especially among female fans.Anderson had a few rumored girlfriends in the past, and many of his fans didn't accept them. They criti
As per the schedule, Jane visited the recording studio the next morning.Anderson and Piper arrived early, causing Jane to feel a little embarrassed.After exchanging pleasantries, Jane began practicing singing, choosing a song from Piper's collection.While she sang, Anderson worked on the arrangement, while Piper listened carefully, pointing out any flaws in Jane's performance.After a morning of training, the trio enjoyed lunch together and continued practicing in the afternoon.At around five o'clock, Piper called a halt to the session, cautioning Jane that over-practicing could be detrimental to her voice.Jane agreed, suggesting they go out for dinner, with her offering to treat them.Anderson objected, wary of her spending too much, but Jane reassured him that she had recently secured an endorsement deal.To ensure privacy, they dined at a restaurant owned by Anderson's friend, with Jane focusing the conversation on Anderson and Piper's recent work.Noticing Anderson's hectic s
Piper asked again, "Is he the guy you mentioned that you have feelings for?"Jane replied without hesitation, "No.""Don't lie to me, if someone is so into me, I'll definitely fall for him too." Piper didn't believe her.Jane went silent and said, "What if the person is a middle-aged man in his 50s with acne scars all over his face, would you still love him?"Piper was at a loss for words.After a while, she reluctantly said, "But he's tall and has a good physique.""That's just his back, you haven't seen his face." Jane said seriously.To convince Piper, she had to feel sorry for Damien."Fine, but don't hate on netizens, or they'll accuse you of being ungrateful." Piper warned."Don't worry, I won't." Jane assured her."I've made up my mind, I'll teach you how to sing starting tomorrow, and Anderson is also here, we'll meet at the usual place." Piper said."Okay."Jane hung up the phone and let out a sigh of relief. She had managed to deceive Piper, or else she would have pried furt
In the morning, Jane sat in the hospital poring over the two scripts Seth had given her.At noon, Duke called her and once again delivered her meal.Taking the bag from Duke, Jane asked out of habit, "Have Damien eaten?"Realizing her mistake, she forced a smile and thanked him.As she walked towards the gate with the bag, Duke reported to his boss, "I suspect the Madam may call to inquire about your lunch later."Jane knew she couldn't call Damien, as she didn't want to reveal her feelings for him.She couldn't even pinpoint when she had developed feelings for him - was it when he had rushed to her side after she fell on set, or when he had defended her from criticism in the parking lot?Or was it simply because he was handsome and wealthy, like many women were attracted to?She didn't know."Jane, the mushrooms fell on the table," Jonathan interrupted her thoughts with a frown.Jane quickly cleaned up the mess, but Jonathan could tell something was bothering her.Although she denied
Shortly after arriving at the medical center, Seth called Jane with some good news."I have some great news for you. IOC has agreed to endorse you."Jane was taken aback for a moment, then passed the peeled apple to Jonathan, and wiped her hands with a piece of paper."Okay.""I'll come to pick you up the day after tomorrow to sign the contract.""Sure!" Jane replied."By the way, I have already uncovered the Ciara fan responsible for throwing concentrated sulfuric acid on you."Jane was a little surprised and asked, "So, am I trending again?""Without a doubt!""Okay." Jane hung up and logged into Twitter, clicking on the trending page.Exclusive Celebrity Secret: While Ciara Tyla appears to be suppressing Jane Austen, her fans are secretly planning against her. Every icon has such followers. 【video】Jane clicked on the video. The footage was a little dark, and it showed the moment when Ciara's fan threw the acid at her. Damien's face was blurred as he kept his back to the camera thr
Jane was preoccupied, unable to sleep properly at night, and had a dream during the latter half of the night.In the dream, she clung to a man's body, wrapped her arms around his neck, and kissed him passionately.In a daze, she opened her eyes and saw the man's face clearly. Her expression changed dramatically, and she pushed him away abruptly.Jane suddenly woke up in bed, rubbed her head, and recollected the dream with an irritated expression on her face.What was going on? Why did she keep having such dreams lately? After lying down for a while, she sat up and checked her phone. It was already late.She got out of bed, went to the bathroom to freshen up, changed her attire, and headed downstairs.As she reached the stairs, she spotted Damien walking out of his room. Her expression altered slightly, and she looked away before rushing down the stairs.Just as Damien was about to speak to her, he saw her hastening downstairs. He smirked, was she still shy? he thought.At the dining t
Jane emerged from the shower and lay on the bed, suddenly recollecting how Seth had asked her to prepare a song.After pondering over it, she contacted Piper.Piper's lively voice answered the phone, "Hey girl.""It's quite late, I hope I didn't disturb you and your partner.""No, not at all. Tell me, what can I do for you?""I have progressed in the "Voice of Dreams" program, and I want to select one of your songs."The only songs she felt comfortable singing were those by Piper and Anderson."That's not a problem. We can discuss it when you perform. I'm not too busy these days, so I can give you some guidance.""In a week or two.""Okay, then I'll make plans to meet up with you."Jane sensed that Piper was about to hang up the phone and quickly said, "Piper, I have a private question.""Sure, go ahead."Jane hesitated for a moment and said, "I have a friend who is going through a difficult time lately. Whenever she talks to a boy, she gets teased, her face turns red, and her heart b
