Seth assumed control of the contract, scrutinized the money, and signed it before raising his eyebrows. "The handwriting is quite exquisite."He handed Jane a copy of the contract. "There are two copies of the contract, you keep this one.""Thank you."Jane accepted the contract, hesitated for a moment, and inquired, "I heard that you no longer accept new talent. Will it be an inconvenience to take me in?"As Jane evaluated Seth, he was also evaluating her.She appeared young, sweet, and pure, but not naive.Furthermore, her face was distinctive, in other words, a standard protagonist's face.With a little bit of polishing, it wouldn't be difficult for her to become popular."You're jesting. You gave me the opportunity to have a job, so I wasn't compelled by circumstances," Seth said with a grin.Jane comprehended his intention, it was due to Damien Wolfe's influence.She said, "You're truly amusing, just call me Jane."Seth glanced at his watch while conversing. "I have a couple more
Empire Group held a meeting where department heads presented their progress reports.The ambiance was formal and everyone appeared solemn.Damien Wolfe reclined in his chair, gazing at the screen projecting in front of him. His charming face betrayed no emotions.Abruptly, a mobile phone rang.All eyes followed the sound and saw the CEO pick up the phone, stand up, and exit the room."Hello, is there anything wrong?"His tone was gentle.The rest exchanged baffled glances, as if they had witnessed a surreal experience.Damien opened the office door, and a voice whispered in his ear."Nothing's wrong. I just met Seth Styles and finished discussing with him. Thank you for arranging it."Damien chuckled. "As long as you're pleased, it's my duty as your husband.""Can you speak normally, please?"Damien frowned. "What do you mean? Aren't we married?"On the other end, Jane didn't seem to want to argue about it."How did you know I wanted to act?"Damien retorted, "You've acted as a substi
The clubhouse is poorly lit, creating a gloomy atmosphere.As the door to the private room swung open, the person lounging on the couch sprang to their feet in a flash.The clubhouse manager entered, holding the door open and gesturing for the visitor to enter."Mr. Damien, please come in."At the sound of the name, Jackson Drew visibly paled.He stared in horror at the tall figure striding in and felt his legs weak with fear."Damien, Damien Wolfe..."Damien shot Jackson a cold glance before seating himself on the sofa.The manager smiled and said, "Mr. Damien, let me know if you need anything. I'll leave you to it."The door to the private room shut, enveloping the space in silence.Jackson stood frozen, feeling the air conditioner was too cold and shivering uncontrollably.He cast a wary glance at the man sitting on the sofa like a king."Damien, what brings you here?" he asked tentatively, though he knew full well why he was being summoned.But now he regretted his actions more th
The next morning, Jane headed downstairs and found Evelyn looking at her sympathetically. "Madam, men always have entertainment outside," she said.Jane was taken aback for a moment before understanding the implication. "Did Damien not return yesterday?" she asked.Evelyn nodded. "He has many friends and used to stay out at night in the old house. Don't be angry."Jane nodded, but couldn't help but think about how Damien's nightlife was so rich. However, she quickly dismissed the thought as Evelyn added, "He is quite a clean man and has never brought a girlfriend home."Jane smiled. "Eve, I'm hungry. Is breakfast ready?"Evelyn quickly got to work on breakfast, but Jane couldn't shake off the feeling of helplessness. It was strange that a wealthy young man like Damien Wolfe would bring a woman home when he didn't lack a house. Besides, if he didn't have too many women, how could he have the value of her as a shield?After breakfast, Jane took a taxi to the airport and received a call
Upon arrival at the terminal, Jane headed straight to the pick-up gate designated for international arrivals.The area surrounding the airport's pick-up gate was teeming with people, with numerous female fans holding light sticks and banners."Anderson... Anderson!""Anderson Picoult!""I love you, Anderson Picoult!"Jane couldn't help but roll her eyes; it was no surprise that Anderson was a global idol, with such an overwhelming fan base.Glancing at her watch, she noted that the flight had landed half an hour ago, and it was only a matter of time before the passengers emerged.She decided to take a step back, anticipating the chaos that would ensue once Anderson made his appearance.However, before she could retreat, the crowd began to push forward, and she found herself being jostled along with them."Excuse me," she said to the person beside her, but her words were drowned out by the fervent cries of the fans.Despite her attempts to break free, she found herself trapped within th
The automobile came to a halt near the medical center, Anderson gazed at Jane's violet leg and advised, "Make sure to purchase some medication and apply it on your injury.""I comprehend, you keep repeating yourself, when did you become so talkative." Jane looked at him with a hint of disgust.Anderson glanced at her and remarked, "Only you have the courage to despise me so much."Jane snickered, "I'm sorry, Big Singer, I didn't spoil you like your supporters, bye, I'm leaving first."She stepped out of the automobile and was about to shut the door when she heard Anderson say, "Convey my regards to Joe that I will pay him a visit soon and wish him a joyous birthday on my behalf.""Sure thing!" Jane nodded, shut the car door, and advanced towards the hospital entrance.Anderson gazed at her retreating figure and mumbled, "She appears to be more content lately."When the manager Pierce Gold overheard this, he couldn't resist anymore."You're merely two years older than her. Why do you c
Jane was really eager to smack Jonathan on the head.Peter is present, doesn't he feel ashamed? she thought.She gave him a stern look, "Don't talk nonsense."She felt incredibly uneasy as she looked at Peter."Men should marry women, and women should marry men," Jonathan sneered.He could see how Peter treated his sister, and he admired him.Peter gazed at Jane with a gentle expression.She had been etched in his heart since he was young.However, she was young and under a lot of stress at the time, so he didn't want to burden her any further.Jane changed the subject, "By the way, how's your work been lately?""It's decent," Peter smiled faintly. "I just came to say hello. I should get back to work now.""Let's have lunch together," Jane suggested.She should also take care of Peter, who usually takes care of Jonathan.Peter quickly agreed, "Sure."After Peter left, Jane immediately confronted Jonathan, "What nonsense were you spouting earlier? I wanted to crawl into a hole and disa
As the sun began to set, Jane departed from the hospital. By the time she reached the Splendid Glory villa, night had already fallen.Upon entering, she found the downstairs empty. After changing her clothes and descending the stairs, she spotted Damien lounging on the sofa."Shall we eat?" he proposed."Sounds good," Jane replied.As they sat across from each other, silence prevailed, save for the occasional clinking of utensils.Once finished, Jane intended to retire for the night.However, Damien halted her. "Seth will be meeting with you tomorrow to discuss work matters," he informed.Jane expressed surprise. "You received the notice so quickly?""Indeed," Damien confirmed. "You're welcome," he added, referring to setting up her debut.Jane appreciated his efforts and expressed her gratitude. Damien, however, appeared uninterested in verbal thanks."I'm more interested in other things," he mused. "Such as kissing and hugging. It's even better when we go deeper," he emphasized.Jan
