"Mr. Maddox."Face serious, Jessica raised her head to look at him. "There are so many machines and so many people around here. You need to show some self-restraint.""All right."Christian's eyes gleamed soulfully. "I can do that, but you'll have to make it up to me after we get back..."**After their cameo scenes were done.The film crew specially prepared flowers and cakes for Christian and Jessica to celebrate the end of filming, and Christian generously stood the film crew a decent meal.Among the reveling throng, Christian had his black eyes fixed on Jessica from start to finish.He watched her mingling with the camera crew and actors with elegance and ease for a long time in the vain hope that she might spare a thought for him."What are you chatting with them about?"His urge got the better of him and, with a glass of wine in his hand, he walked up to her to ask her about it.Jessica smiled, "I'm trying to seek out a guest for my chat show.""..." Christian was red
The pair had a romantic night.The next morning, Christian got up and instructed Ethan to bring Jessica a change of clothes.Jessica went to take a shower. Ethan, standing behind the sofa, filled Christian in on his schedule for the day. Looking at the president, Ethan could not help but sigh in his mind, 'Mr. Maddox has been going through some increasingly great changes lately. I've never noticed he could be so...**Jessica finished her shower, changed into new clothes and went to have breakfast.Her cellphone rang and she answered the call."What happened, Jess?! Alice suddenly informed me she'd decided to quit the filming of the romance reality show. She said she'd rather pay a penalty than stay involved!" Hazel said urgently.Jessica furrowed her eyebrows slightly.She saw Alice running lines with Wade only last night.She didn't know what the two of them had done afterwards, or when Alice had left. Earlier this morning, when she and Christian woke up, there was nobody el
Jessica couldn't believe her ears.She considered for a moment. Suddenly, it clicked. She asked, "Do... you like Wade?""What else?"Alice asked back smartly.But her eyes soon became dull. “I liked him before last night. But now my whole world view has been rocked by him. I don't like him anymore."Jessica’s lips curved in a smile. It was originally a faint smile, but suddenly, Jessica could not help laughing.Her laughter confused Alice, who was standing across her. Alice asked, “Why are you laughing? Are you complacent?""Hang on. Let me show you something."Jessica said and called Madam Maddox. "Mom, please send me the photo of my marriage certificate."After hanging up the phone, Jessica was still smiling and waiting. Soon, she received the photo sent by Madam Maddox. She zoomed up to the photo and handed her phone to Alice."You... and Christian are married...?" Alice saw the photo and asked in surprise."Yes, we got married a long time ago. I am Wade’s sister-in-law
Jessica arrived at the TV station as soon as possible. She headed for Hammer's office.Hammer handed his phone to her. He got a message from an unknown number. [Quit the talent show of the girl group immediately! Otherwise, we will ruin you!]Jessica frowned faintly. "Have you checked the owner of the phone number?""Yes, we have. The number does not exist," Hammer replied.It seemed that they were well prepared..."I received many threatening messages before, but most of them were from netizens. They just cursed me casually. This message is different. Its purpose is clear," Hammer added.Jessica also nodded, "Their target is the talent show of the girl group."As long as Jessica and Hammer analyzed the recent shows of the same type as them, they could figure out the manipulators.Some people, who were defeated by competitors and had nothing else to do, recalled that they suffered a stunning defeat in the bid of the talent show of the girl group and felt resentful, so they made
"Which director do you mean?" Jessica asked.Jessica's assistant said, "Director Cooper. He asked you to bring the scenarist-director group to have a meeting together!"Jessica agreed and made a U-turn at the front junction.It was rare that she didn't need to work overtime today, so she would like to go home earlier. However, it seemed that her plan would fall through.In the Director Cooper's office.Hammer was the host of the show and got involved in scandals suddenly. The scenarist-directors didn't have the guts to say anything. The atmosphere was thick with tension.Cooper paced to and fro. He asked, "How about the round of the performances of the girl group?"Someone replied, "It's the third round."Cooper frowned tightly. "The performances and knockout rounds will become increasingly important. Hammer gets involved in scandals suddenly, so I ask you to have a meeting about how to change the host group.""Director Cooper, Hammer can prove his innocence."Jessica stood u
"Why?" Director Cooper looked at Jessica confusedly."Hammer was my co-host in all the four aired shows, and there was some negative news during that time, stuff like rumors about Alice getting into it through the back door, but Hammer never tried to avert suspicion.If Hammer suddenly got replaced at this point in time without a plausible explanation to distract the public attention, I'm afraid Hammer's career prospects would be severely compromised. It would be like our station acquiescing in those slanderous remarks about him and...giving up on him..."Director Cooper's frown deepened at Jessica's explanation.He knew that Jessica was not just doing this for the sake of their friendship, that her words actually made a lot of sense.Looking at the big picture, he felt that it was indeed inadvisable to precipitously substitute Hammer, unless Jakesville TV Station had plans to give up Hammer, the pillar of the station. How could they give up the fruit of so many years' work of the
A netizen commented that the young model looked like Jessica. The blogger who released the tip liked the comment. It aroused a heated discussion for an instant.All the people knew what the blogger's move meant...Hammer and Jessica worked in the same TV station as hosts and hooked up with each other. Their personas collapsed one by one. The tip was so breaking that it attracted netizens' attention virtually...Netizens commented below the blogger's newest blog and expected the blogger to release the hard evidence to prove the affair of Hammer and Jessica as soon as possible!Jessica frowned faintly and asked, "Who is the blogger? Have you confirmed his identity?"Hammer replied frustratingly, "We're investigating it, but we haven't dug it out and failed to stop the person. The person may have a connection in high places." Then Hammer reminded her, "I can only contact you by phone. There are too many people on the TV station. We'd better not meet each other temporarily."Jessica
Gail couldn't wait to take her phone to Jessica. They looked at the new tips together.As expected, the blogger, who released the tips before, posted clearer photos. What was more, the photos this time were new and showed the young model's face completely..."Oh my God!"Gail sighed, "She... looks like you more after I see her complete face! Her hairstyle, eyes and the mole below the eye..."Gail lowered her voice gradually as she said to Jessica because she noticed that Jessica's face clouded over.Indeed, Jessica also could tell that the woman, whose racy photos with Hammer were exposed, looked like her very much. Besides, the woman imitated her hairstyle and makeup style deliberately. The woman even imitated her mole under the eye perfectly.Jessica was sure that she hadn't cheated on Christian or sleepwalked, otherwise she would almost suspect that Hammer and she were photographed when they had sex one day..."Jess, I'm sure that someone is framing you on purpose!"Gail gri
