Jessica smoothed her hair around her ear and didn't answer Hazel's question.But Hazel was smart. She directly interpreted Jessica’s silence as acknowledgment."In that situation just now, only Hawley could relieve the embarrassment." Hazel tried to soothe Jessica. "Who do you think dares to stop Mr. Green in front of everyone? But Hawley can do that. He is young and reckless, which is perfectly understandable. Therefore, Mr. Green could get out of this embarrassment."Jessica nodded.She did not overthink what happened just now. She was just touched by Hawley for a moment.Seeing Jessica’s eyes lighting up again, Hazel smiled again and said, "I have rarely seen such a manly side of Hawley. Thanks to you, I saw it once again today!"Jessica tilted her head to look at Hazel and asked curiously, "Do you know each other well?"Hazel laughed. "Of course we do! He's my cousin!""Wow. You are..." Only then did Jessica understand why Hazel had so many resources in show business. Altho
Having noticed the uncharacteristic facial expression on Jessica's face, Gail looked where she was gazing just in time to see the elevator door slowly close.The man inside subconsciously kept his head down, seemingly trying to avoid being recognized by the others."Who's that guy?" Gail asked."Harrison Shaw.""Harrison Shaw?!" Gail was amazed. "Is the bouquet of flowers in his hands for...Flora? Are they back together, by any chance?"Jessica shook her head, thinking, 'Who cares?'**Unsurprisingly, early the next morning, vague photos of a man who was presumably Flora's rich, handsome boyfriend appeared on news websites.Last night, after the inaugural ceremony, Flora gave an interview to the press and then was videotaped getting into a car with a man, a large bouquet of roses in her hands.The man's clothing suggested that he was none other than Harrison, who had brushed past Jessica in the elevator last night.Gail tut-tutted incredulously. "Does this mean Flora, after b
One hour later.Wasin Group's public relation group replied, "Ms. Bush, I'm afraid that it is because the new year is coming. You're striving for the annual prize, but your competitors are obstructing you secretly.""But it's a secret that I have got the nomination of the annual most popular star..."Hearing Jessica's question, Wasin Group's public relation group explained, "It's not because of the prize of the annual most popular star. It's because of the prize of the annual most popular new star... We have found some traces in the accounts, which look like your die-hard fans' accounts. They once posted some things about Mary. Although the traces have been cleared, some evidence is left there. I'll send the evidence to you later."Jessica narrowed her eyes and said calmly, "OK."She hung up and told Gail the situation.Gail was so angry that she cursed Mary, "Mary is crazy! She is stupid! She makes things difficult for you instead of her real competitors. Why don't we tell her t
Jessica fluttered her eyelashes and looked up at Gail, "Why don't you ask your friend at Flora's company and see what's going on?" Gail agreed.Until the shift was almost over, Gail received the message and lost no time in telling Jessica, "Indeed, Flora has been blacklisted. Mary is believed to be mad!""Because Flora dissed Beauty Magazine?" Jessica arched her brow.Gail blinked mysteriously, "Probably so, rumor has been spreading in their office, saying that Mary refused to work and came back from the filming site this noon. She found their big boss in the office, played tough, and requested the company to choose only one of them. To pacify her, the boss had to put Flora in the blacklist for now…"A flicker of coldness flashed across Jessica's eyes.Mary was more ruthless than she thought.Though arrogant, Flora was still a new artist yet to rise to stardom.Mary might look stoic, but all kinds of petty tricks had been played by her lately. She was ruthless towards those
Jessica had never received Christian's messages or phone calls so late at night unless she contacted him...She stood beside the bed, grasped the phone and called Christian back, but no one answered the phone after the phone rang for a long time.Then she checked the sudden message carefully again... It was very strange...Christian had never called her "honey"... Besides, even if he was drunk, he shouldn't ask her to drive him home. He would just expect her to sleep at home soundly...Jessica realized that it might be a trap, but she didn't know who the manipulator was and the manipulator's aim temporarily. Christian might have been involved, so she panicked.She frowned slightly. She put on her clothes as she went downstairs.Fannie heard the noises, hurried to follow Jessica out and asked, "Mrs. Maddox, what's the matter?""I'm gonna go out.""Let me call the driver for you!" Fannie reacted quickly and said.Soon, the driver stopped the car in front of the door. Jessica got
Jessica hung up the phone…The woman she bumped into was more astonished than her. "Jessica…"She stammered and shed tears dramatically.Jessica stood still and sized her up with a poker face.With no shoes on, the woman seemed to be just out of bed and in a hurry.Her hair was messy. Her makeup was smudged. Her lipstick ran across her face ambiguously… Dressed in a loose bathrobe, she had the girdle tied casually. Her fair neck and deep cleavage were revealed. Obviously, she wasn't wearing anything inside.After a pause, Jessica regained her composure, asking, "Flora… you called me over?""What?"Flora gaped with feigned innocence, "Jessica, I can explain. Mr. Maddox got drunk and called me over… It was not our intention. Please don't be mad…"Heh...Jessica sneered.So, this was her drama.Flora was so good at such tricks! Back then, in the Adventure Show, she used the same trick to frame Mask and her!In front of her eyes, Flora explained anxiously and cringed. Her pomp
For an instant, Jessica felt unfamiliar with Christian who was in front of her.Christian walked up again and said, "Let me explain."Jessica calmed down, turned to look at him and said decisively, "OK. Go ahead.""Please don't think too much. What you have seen is created deliberately. Nothing has happened between me and her!" Christian said sincerely.Jessica kept silent, turned around and looked at the bedroom...Flora's clothes were scattered on the bed and the ground. Her black short skirt, purple underwear...Her clothes were so obtrusive!Christian looked in the direction where Jessica looked at. He also saw these nasty clothes. He frowned, strode forward and closed the bedroom door to keep themselves apart from the scene."Don't look at them!"He said firmly, "Look at my eyes. I haven't lied to you. Nothing has happened between me and her.""I was drunk indeed and Ethan drove me here. After I took a shower, she was in the room. I asked her to leave, but you arrived be
Jessica looked at the garish lip print for a second and turned away in big strides as if nothing had happened.As soon as she came out of the hotel, the driver drove over. After a moment of hesitation, she instructed, "We're not going home yet."Somewhat surprised, the driver observed her face through the rear-view mirror, "Mrs. Maddox, where are we going?""Just going around," she said weakly.Instead of pressing, the driver drove the car onto the highway.When the cold wind just relieved her of her agitation, her phone suddenly rang. It was a message from Flora. "Jessica, I'm sorry for what happened today. I was really drunk, and it was not our intention. I don't want to see you upset…"Jessica clutched the phone and gnashed her teeth, 'This woman knows no shame!'She tried her best to restrain her emotions as she believed that Flora was laughing from the other end of the phone. The more upset she got, the more complacent Flora was!After a brief breakdown, she started
