Jessica's long eyelashes fluttered as she said after a brief pause, "I'm not sure, but you can't be too careful. If the studio had really taken me on board without hesitation just because of a capital infusion, I would've started to worry about the quality level of the movie."Gail bobbed her head. "I have faith in you. Director Bacchus is attending the victory party tonight as well?""Director Cooper personally sent him an invitation." Jessica nodded.Gail walked once around Jessica's office and then said mysteriously, "Where's the heroine costume you prepared for the party? Let me take a look."Smiling, Jessica slid her a sidelong glance. "There's no heroine costume.""It's your evening. How could you not have one?" Gail was skeptical.The Charity Gala held by the TV station the other day had been a great success. Although there had been a mistake with Hammer's memo card, and a male fan had proposed to Jessica out of malice, those incidents had been the very reason why the view
Jessica was shocked for a second and reacted in the next second. 'He must be a hooligan. I have to save myself.'Before the man pushed the door again, Jessica threw down her dress, stretched one of her legs, braced it against the back wall and tried her best to close the door.Feeling that she was pushing the door constantly, the man outside was anxious. "Jessica, it's me. Stop!"Jessica reacted subconsciously. 'Is it Hammer?'Hammer's voice was clear and charming. He was known for being born to have a beautiful voice. They had worked as colleagues twice, so she was familiar with his voice well.Jessica let go and peeked through the door crack. It was Hammer indeed.Jessica felt panicked and scared before, but now she was confused. 'Why does Hammer come to the woman's locker room and want to open my door? He looks indecent...''Should I be wary of him or not?'Hammer knew her thoughts. He said, "I come here to ask you to check your dress well. Something is wrong with it!"His
Jessica took off her left high-heeled shoe, picked it up, and found a thin, sharp needle at its bottom.She turned it over and had a careful look, finding the needle had been nailed into the shoe from the bottom… What a painstaking effort…She believed what Hammer had told her, so she was cautious and repeatedly checked her dress.She thought that person would just cut a split or a weak spot of her dress to embarrass her in public.But unexpectedly, the person was so ruthless and really wanted to hurt her!Jessica took out her mobile phone and called Gail.The moment Gail picked it up, she asked, "Jess, are you on your way? I'm already here. When will you arrive?"Jessica asked calmly, "Are there many people there?""Yes, are you still changing the plan?""No, I've had an incident. I'll be there later."Gail found something wrong with her voice and asked, "What's wrong? I'll go back now!""There is no need. It's no big deal."Jessica told Gail about the needle at the bottom
"Do you think I am talking nonsense?"Paige had prepared what she would say a long time ago, and she was not afraid of Director Cooper's reprimands and warnings. She continued to instigate, "Oh, I almost forgot that Director Cooper and Deputy Director Tanner have helped Jessica a lot since she joined the TV station. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to gain a firm foothold so fast. I shouldn’t have criticized her in front of you because you will definitely protect her! But I still have to say it out! It is your indulgence toward Jessica that made her so arrogant.”Director Cooper furrowed his thick eyebrows, and Tanner's old face turned purple.Paige had a grasp of a situation and knew what to do. At this moment, it was no use for them to say anything. If they spoke up for Jessica, Director Bacchus would think that Jessica was really pampered in the TV station.The two directors kept silent, and Paige was very gloating. She walked to Director Bacchus and said, "Director Bacchu
"My dress and shoes were put in the closet in the lounge. Did any of you see who tampered with the shoes?" Jessica wheeled around and asked the female colleagues around.All of them shook their heads. Jessica did not wait for their responses but went straight to Paige, asking, "What about you? Do you know who did it?"Paige panicked for a second, then calmed down, and widened her eyes, "What do you mean? Why don't you ask others?""I’ve asked them just now. Didn't you hear it?" Jessica said, "I asked several colleagues before I walked over. But none of them had reacted so angrily as you are doing. Are you trying to cover something up?""Jessica, I am sick of this!"Paige straightened up and said aggressively, "With someone backing you up, you are targeting me at will. But enough is enough! You must stop!""It's you who should stop!"Jessica threw the bag of the high heels onto the ground, facing everyone, and said in a steady voice, "Everyone, I think you have seen who is reveal
Director Cooper was intended to teach her a lesson, but Paige held her head up and interrupted, "What the hell do you want?"Paige used to be very polite and respectful in front of Director Cooper. Director Cooper looked dumbfounded when he was suddenly contradicted defiantly."I know you will help Jessica and make things difficult for me!"Paige tossed her head and continued, "I’m telling you, I am not afraid of you today! I don't care who you will support in the future. I don't give a sh*t! I quit!"After saying that, Paige turned around to leave. When passing by Jessica, she said ruthlessly, "Jessica, stop being smug. Wait and see!""No matter what, I advise you to avoid meeting me in the future." Jessica was also angry.Paige laughed presumptuously, "Maybe it is you who have to shun me by then." After speaking, she sashayed away.The people around were all watching the drama, and Director Cooper and Deputy Director Tanner felt very embarrassed.Paige had left, so Director C
"Adela is narrow-minded. If she has hooked up with Cain, she will never allow Paige to join Cain’s company, let alone make Paige the Top Hostess in the station."Gail rolled her eyes, thinking things should not be that simple. She asked, "Jess, do you think this is a conspiracy?""It's hard to say." Jessica shook her head.Gail shook Jessica’s arm, full of curiosity. She urged, "Just have a guess!"Jessica smiled and said calmly and slowly, "I won’t guess. I'm afraid they will be much worse than I can imagine. Who knows what unethical things these three people would do? After all, none of them are moral people."**Director Bacchus had left. Jessica stayed at the banquet for a while, then told Director Cooper that she was unwell, and went home early.As the protagonist of the banquet, she was actually just an excuse for them to gather togehter. What she needed to do was just show up to give everyone an excuse to cheer up. Then people would enjoy themselves even if she was absent
Although the photos on Christian's phone were a bit blurred, he could still tell that the two people in the photos were Jessica and Hammer!The photos had been taken continuously, and it was not difficult to see that Hammer was approaching Jessica while Jessica was pushing him in the locker room of the TV station..."I can explain. It is Hammer who told me that my shoes were tampered with. He was so anxious to tell me that he rushed into the women's locker room..." Jessica said.Christian's brows were still furrowed.In fact, he didn't care about these photos. He even didn't need to look closely at them because he knew that Jessica was not cheating on him.What he worried about was that the environment she was in was really dangerous. She was in the light, but her enemy was in the dark. If Hammer hadn’t told her this time, her feet would have been seriously hurt and it would take at least half a month for her to recover."Do you know who might have taken the pictures?" He asked h
