"Yes."Jessica nodded."So what does he mean? Is it confirmed that you'll be in the movie?" Gail said with concern.Jessica said thoughtfully, "Not yet, I guess. He just told me to be prepared."Gail said firmly, "Director Bacchus obviously wants to find two or three guests to be the guest actors. I think it is most likely to be a man and a woman. Who would the female guest be if not you?""Isn't there my good friend, Grace?" Jessica teased.Gail rolled her eyes, "Just her? She is a newcomer, and she just got into a dispute with Adventure Show over her termination of the contract. How could Director Bacchus choose her!""Don't you forget that she is going to enter the entertainment industry in the future!" Jessica reminded."That's not possible either!"Gail also realized something, but she waved her hand and said, "Our program group must have strongly recommended you. Director Bacchus is a big-name director, so he will definitely listen to the opinions of the program group an

Looking at the assistant's pleading expression, Jessica had no choice but to take the phone from her hand."Hello.""You really don't want me to go to the Charity Gala?" Christian's low noise was laced with a hint of displeasure."Aren't you busy?"Jessica replied coldly, "We invited a lot of big names. The data traffic and attention are guaranteed. You just go and do your own thing."There was dead silence on the other end of the line.Then Jessica suddenly heard Christian instructing Ethan on the other end of the line, "Cancel my schedule for this Saturday night. I'm going to the Charity Gala."Jessica's eyes twinkled, yet she still said smugly, "How can I ask you to clear your important schedule?""The Charity Gala is also important.""So you just want to come."Jessica's words startled the few producer directors eavesdropping outside the door, causing them to get goosebumps."I want you to see how much data traffic and attention your gala will get because of my attendanc

Paige was about to get the Best Hosts award last time.She sacrificed herself to come on to Adela's fiance Jameson so as to get this award, but she didn't expect that Adela would expose herself through live streaming to win netizens' sympathy on the ceremony night. Everybody knew her scandal with Jameson now.Therefore, she lost not only the award but also her reputation. She bit her tongue at that time.What was more unexpected was that Adela could get into the Network P, even though she had just lost her fiance and her baby.'Since Adela is still thinking about inserting herself into the set, then I'll use that to my advantage.'

Gail approached Jessica and whispered to her, "Could it be that this was coming at you?""I don't know.""Do you think it's Paige?"

I can't live without you!"It brought out a commotion on the spot.To be honest, Jessica couldn't be unaffected.

He held her in his arms."Stop it.""I'm serious. I'll have it done quickly and leave you some time to touch up your foundation."Jessica was tickled. She giggled and pushed him away.But the next second, he turned her round and held her again, "Do you feel better now?"Jessica looked up into his gentle eyes and said in a coquettish manner, "So you are just teasing...""What?"What a man!It was hard to tell if they were joking with you!Jessica pretended to punch him, but her fist was grabbed by him, "Be careful of your words.

The Bailey family behind Hammer was also very powerful. Jessica believed the news that Hammer's men found out. Besides, her intuition told her the same thing.Looking at Jessica's calm eyes, Hammer realized that he had underestimated her who returned to work as a host.If one was incompetent, it was difficult for the one to convince others even with powerful background and outstanding appearance because the background would decay and the one would become old.His views on Jessica were narrow, so he didn't notice her ability.He asked Jessica, "Have you guessed it already?"Jessica picked up a hair band and tied up her hair casually. "Did Grace do that?"At first, Jessica was not sure about that. She doubted if Paige did that, but Paige must haven't arranged the live proposal. Paige had just returned to the TV station and was eager to salvage viewers through the gala. Such a big accident was not good for her.If Paige did that, she should have arranged someone to propose to herse

It may be changed. We'd better delay the preparation in case you will prepare for it in vain...""What's the matter?" Jessica frowned slightly."I have arranged for someone to investigate and haven't gotten the exact news yet. It is said that the organizers of Leap Art's gala evening on New Year's Eve have changed their minds and will invite Adela to replace you...," the assistant said."Adela?"Gail was drinking coffee and writing the plan in Jessica's office.

[Don't worry I will try my best to help you and won't urge you]Jessica paused and replied with a smile. [I haven't finished speaking. Hold on.

He didn't have any time to care about other things and followed Jessica to come to France.Luckily, he arrived in time.

As Jerome confronted him coldly, Christian's narrowed eyes slid out of focus for a second.Soon, he collected himself, and ferocity suppressed the gloom in his eyes. "Before I figure out the entire thing, I'll keep her out of harm's way! Even if someone tells her the truth one day, it has to be me and not you! You'd better stay away from her!" Jerome's face also turned gloomy. "I was not interested in her or those trivial matters in the past, but destiny guided me to meet her. Then I find that those matters are pretty interesting…And the more annoyed you are, the more interesting I find it… Besides, you stole my lines. The one who should stay away from her is you!" "Don't bother. This is between my wife and me," Christian declared his sovereignty once again.Jerome looked askance at Christian. His gloomy voice became huskier and more horrifying.

"Christian?"Jessica spun around and did a double take, mixed delight and incredulity in her eyes.Christian made his way to her and took her by the hand. "You're still recovering.

Though he was speaking to Jessica, it was the man opposite her that his piercing eyes flashed at.At this moment, the bodyguards outside the cabin hurried inside all at once. One of them bowed to Jerome and explained apologetically, "Mr. Garan, he's brought some men here... We failed to stop them..."Jerome waved his hand testily and, restraining his annoyance, rose to his feet and looked at Christian. "Nice to see you again, Mr. Maddox." Though his words were a greeting, his face were rather tight."I heard only a few days ago that there's some turbulence going on in the Garan family. It surprises me Mr. Garan is still in the mood for partying," Christian said acidly."Oh, you're pretty well-informed, Mr. Maddox!" Jerome remarked with

"I'm just a nobody, and all I want is for the job to be done in a peaceful fashion. I have no reason to work against you on my own initiative unless you leave me no choice, don't you think?" Jessica said, her face bland.Having no alternative but to resign himself to accepting it, Neil said testily, "Fine! Get it over with!"A smile curled Jessica's lips as her beautiful eyes moved to the outline for the interview on the sofa. "Speak according to the outline and answer my every question. Here we go."Watching Neil obediently pick up the interview outline with resentment etched on his face, Jessica snickered and turned on her digital recorder.**Twenty minutes later, the interview came to a successful end.Having obtained what she wanted, Jessica operated the digital recorder for a moment and then stowed it in her handbag.Neil had had enough of it.

Neil's eyes glittered with alarm at the sight of the picture on Jessica's phone, the corners of his mouth twitching in spite of himself.On the sofa he'd been sitting a moment ago sat a couple of female models. Neil glared over his left shoulder and then the right one at the girls and thundered, "Beat it!""Neil..."A charming girl, unwilling to leave, walked over and, holding his hand, said, "Where do you want us to go?""Get out of my sight! Now!" Neil stormed shiftily.His bawl brought all the girls trotting out helter-skelter...Jessica, taking advantage of the opportunity, took back her phone and unhurriedly put it into her handbag in the presence of Neil."Let's go somewhere else to talk," Neil said to Jessica, rising to his feet and leading the way for the door.Jessica remained where she was. With a smile that never reached her eyes, she said, "I thought you liked the lively atmosphere in this place."The corners of Neil's mouth twitched and he snapped, "It's not every
