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
The next day, when Seth arrived, Damien had already vacated the premises.In the living area, Seth handed over the papers to Jane, "These are the resources I have gathered in the last few days. Please have a look."Jane was taken aback for a moment, took the documents and was a bit surprised, "So prompt?""Thank you for acknowledging my work ability." Seth leaned back on the couch, his lips curved.Jane opened the script and scanned through it.After finishing one of them, she looked at Seth in amazement, "The fourth female lead in 'Red Makeup in Troubled Times'?"'Red Makeup in Troubled Times' was the show that she had replaced Ciara in not long ago, which was too coincidental."The original fourth female lead of this drama was involved in a drug abuse scandal and has already terminated the contract, so there's no need for an audition, you can join directly." Seth responded.Jane pondered for a moment, she had heard about the drug abuse incident involving the fourth female lead before
Upon bidding farewell to Seth, Jane proceeded to peruse the script.Although the number of roles was limited, Seth assured her that she would be available to join the team after finishing her work for the magazine. Nonetheless, time was still a bit tight.Damien Wolfe, on the other hand, had already returned to his family's estate and was expected to be absent for the next two days.The following day, Seth personally drove over to collect Jane and brought along his assistant, Hannah Inker.Hannah, a plump young woman in her early twenties, had a chubby face and looked quite adorable. As soon as she caught sight of Jane, she exclaimed, "Hello, Miss Jane! I'm Hannah.""Hi there, just call me Jane," she replied with a smile."That's right, you look younger than me." Hannah said, sounding a bit embarrassed.Jane wanted to assure her that it was fine, but was interrupted by Seth."Alright, it's getting late. Let's exchange pleasantries in the car and head off now.""Okay!" Jane and Hannah
Jane was carrying out the photographer's instructions in the studio.It was her first time being in the limelight like this, so inevitably, she was a bit anxious, and her movements were initially uncoordinated.Fortunately, both the editor-in-chief and the photographer were quite patient, and soon she got the hang of it.Rex observed Jane getting more and more comfortable in front of the camera and said with satisfaction, "I have a feeling that this magazine issue will be a success."Seth raised his eyebrows, looked at Jane under the camera, and his heart stirred.Some individuals have a natural talent for the camera, such as Oliver Timbaland and Amy Rashford.Could Jane be the next Amy Rashford?Afterwards, Jane changed into two more outfits - one was a white chiffon skirt that accentuated her shallow pear dimples, giving her a radiant aura.The other was a light gray plaid suit that showcased her tall, curvy figure, and her eyes sparkled with elegance.After the entire shoot was ove
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
