Erin wasn't sure if she should cry or laugh at Sean's incredulity upon receiving her call. She teased, "Are you, the esteemed president of Truffleberry Media, really so surprised to get a call from me?"Sean responded seriously, "Yes!""Why, though?" She was genuinely curious now.Sean picked up his phone and walked to the window wall. Looking at the sunny day outside, he remembered the smile on Erin's face and felt a subtle sense of comfort in his heart.He chuckled lightly. "Because you're Erin."His answer puzzled her, and after thinking for a few seconds, she decided not to dwell on it. Erin returned to the main topic and asked, "Didn't you say that I should treat you to a meal before I left?"Hearing no response from his end, she didn't feel comfortable bringing up May's matter.Upon hearing her mention the meal invitation, Sean felt a hint of surprise, accompanied by a wave of delight. He asked bluntly, "Do you miss me?"After falling speechless for a second, Erin denied
The next afternoon at 1 pm, Erin and Roman arrived at Fleuverton Airport. They walked out of the airport pushing their luggage and got into a black van. Since Roman didn't announce his visit to Fleuverton City, they kept a low profile throughout the journey.Roman had been wearing a large mask, sunglasses, and a hat since they departed from the city. Even Erin chose to dress similarly. Ever since the scandal with Matthew, Erin carried these simple disguises with her whenever she would be in crowded public places.In the early hours of last night, Matthew once again clarified on Twitter that he and Erin were only friends. This flimsy explanation wasn't convincing to most netizens. Even so, there were still many diehard fans who, after feeling sad for a few days, chose to support their idol. These fans even managed to track Erin's Twitter account.Although Erin only posted on Twitter once every month or two, the scandal with Matthew caused her Twitter followers to suddenly surge to ov
Hearing that there was news about May, Erin felt glad. Despite their strained relationship, she was still family, after all."Where is my cousin, Mr. Dunn?" Erin asked eagerly.Sean was clearly displeased. "What did you call me?"Upon hearing his question, Erin remembered something and changed her way of addressing him. "Sean.""Now that's better. Don't worry, your cousin is fine. The information we gathered shows that she went to Fleuverton City yesterday. It seems she went with the director of the casting group for the movie Roman is shooting. Maybe you'll run into her at the film studio."This news surprised her greatly. May was going to act in a movie!Erin said, "I see. What matters most is that she's fine. She's better off acting in a movie than wasting her time with some rich heir."Laughing, Sean teased, "That's hard to say. Extras are a mixed bunch. Your cousin doesn't have any backing or acting experience. While there may be shortcuts for young girls like her that can
On the second day, Erin and Roman arrived at DragonSky Studios early in the morning for the opening ceremony.Erin stood with a group of other actors' assistants, watching the main actors, director, and producer of the film uncover the cloth that was covering the main camera to signify that the film shooting would officially start.Roman, Matthew, Megan, and ten other main actors were dressed in ancient costumes. They would start filming right away after the opening ceremony.The film "Fox" told the fantasy story of a fox spirit from over a thousand years ago. It seduced the monarch and brought calamity to the country and its people. Roman played the upright prince who wasn't seduced by the fox spirit and teamed up with Matthew, who played the general, to fight demons. Megan played the fox spirit that was both benevolent and evil at the same time. At first, she only wanted the prince, but later on, her love would turn into hatred, and she would plot to destroy the prince's kingdom.
May threw the magazine she held on the floor before leaving. Erin stared at it for a full five minutes, unable to muster the courage to look at it. Finally, after she exhausted her patience, she walked over and picked up the magazine.Startlingly, she saw a photo of Chandler and Alana together in the most famous business celebrity magazine in the country. The photo was taken in Chandler's study. The two of them looked like a match made in heaven. They were like the moon and stars, making one marvel at how God created two people so perfect for each other.Chandler, with his extremely handsome face, had a radiant smile that could light up a galaxy. Alana, with her captivating beauty, leaned affectionately in his arms. They both looked dazzlingly beautiful.With a heavy thump, the magazine slipped from Erin's hands and fell to the ground. She felt a wave of weakness and dizziness. She'd known all along that Chandler would hold that engagement banquet. But when the engagement banquet wa
After receiving the second IV infusion, Erin finally woke up due to the urge to relieve herself. The moment she woke, she felt disoriented, weak in her limbs, and had a throbbing headache. Her hazy gaze landed on the man beside her, and Erin's brain momentarily thought she was seeing things.Roman, dressed in his set costume, was looking at her at that moment. His voice was gentle and mellow as he asked, "How do you feel?" He'd been afraid of missing the timing for the IV drip and hadn't dared rest his eyes for even a moment.Erin laughed feebly. "Looks like I'm in the hospital ... I'm so sorry for troubling you."He replied, "Yeah, I've even stopped filming. If I don't see an improvement in your condition, I'll feel uneasy about going back to work. So, you have to actively accept treatment and eat well, okay?"Roman's tone was relaxed with a hint of playful reproach. Erin's ears burned a little from embarrassment as he said that, but her eyes became moist, and they reddened afte
Percival quickly put on his clothes and stood up while comforting her, "Alright, I won't say anything. Let's go back. Our scene is in half an hour."Megan suggested, "Let's not leave together. What if we run into someone else? I'll go first, and you come out five minutes later.""Okay."Erin, who had been sitting stiffly behind the folding screen all this time, was actually sweating profusely. Megan and Percival were too busy earlier to notice anything else, but now she just hoped they wouldn't wander around the west wing out of curiosity.Finally, Megan left, and Erin breathed a sigh of relief. But Percival would still be around for another five minutes. Erin remained nervous and listened carefully to Percival's movements.Then her worst fear came true—Percival suddenly started walking around. Erin was afraid that he would come to the other side of the folding screen. What would she do then?Thinking on her feet, she put on her headphones and opened the music player on her phone
Erin's words hit Simon like a bolt from the blue, and he remained frozen with a stiff expression on his face for quite some time.When he snapped back to his senses, he was somewhat annoyed as he asked, "What do you mean? Why are you slandering Megan? Why?"Simon's reaction revealed to Erin that he really liked Megan. This worsened Erin's mood. If Simon didn't like Megan that much, that would be better for him. Then, he wouldn't have to endure so much pain.Seeing Erin suddenly fall silent, Simon angrily walked toward the door. She guessed that he was in a hurry to leave."I didn't slander Megan. She has been deceiving you all along! She has a relationship with a man named Percival behind your back. I heard them with my own ears earlier—"He turned back furiously and shouted at Erin, "Shut up! Who gave you the courage to spout such nonsense? Don't forget that I'm a lawyer! I don't care if you're a friend of my cousin or not, if you dare spread rumors and cause trouble like this, I
Erin chuckled lightly as she said, "Enny would have married and fallen in love with another man sooner or later. "If that man is Paulo, I would be more than willing. Enny will be very happy in her life, and I'm at ease entrusting her to Paulo. And with Paulo being so wealthy, I don't have to worry about anyone coveting Enny's status or her family's power.""You make a good point!" Jill agreed."Jill, if your wedding with Ryder happens around the same time as Enny's, I'm afraid I won't have the energy to help you," Erin said worriedly."No worries, I don't want a wedding ceremony. Ryder and I just need to register our marriage. We've been living together for ten years anyway," Jill said.Erin nodded. "Yeah, that's fine. Weddings are quite tiring anyway, whether you have one or not."After chatting for a while, Jill heard Ryder's footsteps and said quickly, "Let's talk next time. He's coming in." …At 10:00 pm that day, Erin visited Chandler's office at his company.However, h
Ryder turned around with skepticism etched across his face. "What could possibly be wrong? Look at how anxious you are."As she leaned against the doorway, Jill held her phone aloft. There was a challenging glint in her eyes. "If you can remain that calm after hearing this news, I'll play your game with you later.""Really?" Ryder raised an eyebrow, his tone filled with."Forget it if you don't trust me." She pretended to turn away.In a swift motion, Ryder closed the distance between them."I believe you. Now, tell me," Ryder said."Enny and Paulo have settled things," Jill announced with a smirk playing on her lips."Damn! Who told you?" Ryder's curiosity peaked.Jill waved her phone triumphantly. "This is exclusive insider information! Erin personally sent a WhatsApp message, see for yourself!"Ryder snatched the phone, his eyes scanning the message rapidly.The message read, "Enny was two months pregnant with Paulo's child, and the couple had visited Paulo's parents. Whil
Cyril looked at Paulo's departing figure and sighed. "Master is so good-looking. That's why Ms. Frost has been chasing him for so many years… Actually, Master and Ms. Frost really are a perfect match!"Only after Paulo's figure disappeared into the forest did Cyril turn around silently.He was suddenly startled. "Ms. Frost…""Why so guilty? I'm not some demoness who preys on monks!" Enny exclaimed.Cyril laughed. "Ms. Frost, you're really humorous…""I'm asking you, where is your master?" Enny demanded.Cyril hesitated and said, "I don't know where Master is."Enny called his bluff. "Liar!""I really don't know," insisted Cyril."Cyril, your master is going through the most difficult time of his life. As his capable assistant and disciple, you must help him!" insisted Enny.Enny's serious expression made Cyril ask curiously, "What trouble has Master encountered?""Well, he wants to be with me, but he's too embarrassed to ask. What should I do?" she asked."Does Master reall
Many years later, on the day Enny got her ID card, she drove to Skycloud Mountain overnight.There was a temple on the top of Skycloud Mountain, and she was going to see someone there.By the time she struggled to the mountaintop, it was already 6:00 am the next day.Enny was dressed in black. She wore white hiking shoes with a duck tongue hat and her hair casually tied in a ponytail.Her beautiful, bare face had been a stumbling block on her path to growth.Every year, the number of men she rejected could fill several trucks.That was just among those who had the chance to approach her, while those who didn't could only watch from afar.Enny looked straight ahead, wiping the sweat that had trickled down her cheek.She took a deep breath and walked into the small, secluded temple that was cut off from the world.She finally arrived just in time on the day the new chief abbot took office. In fact, she was there to prevent the new abbot from entering the monastic life!Driven b
Erin had planned to visit Matthew's "Thinkerin City" to buy a violin and visit him.But Matthew's shop was closed, so after waiting for half an hour with Enny, she went to another store to buy one.However, she happened to meet him on the street now.Matthew slowly pushed the wheelchair toward her.He was dressed very casually. He wore a plaid shirt with short sleeves, jeans, and branded sneakers.His simple style was a far cry from his rock star days.He looked somewhat thinner, his smile faint. "Erin, did you and Enny come to buy an instrument?""Yes, we bought Enny a violin. We actually wanted to visit your store." Erin's gaze drifted to Claire, who sat in the wheelchair.Matthew responded, "Sorry, I had to take Claire to get some medicine."Although Claire had been tragically affected by Matthew's obsessive fans years ago, she survived. However, she was left mentally incapacitated and was sometimes lucid for only a few hours.Matthew was loyal, taking it upon himself to c
Chandler's appearance wasn't anything mysterious or an extraordinary entrance.It was filled with the usual beauty and romance of a typical wedding.After reaching Erin, he knelt on one knee with a face full of happiness, opened the ring box with both hands and looked up at her.He asked, "Erin, will you marry me again?"Erin's heart was filled with joy as she asked jokingly, "If I refuse, will you force me into a wedding dress and marry you?"He replied firmly, "Yes!""Since I have no choice, I suppose I must agree," she said with a smile. Erin extended her hand for Chandler to slide the engagement ring onto her finger."You will be Mrs. Frost for the rest of your life! Don't even think about escaping!" Chandler exclaimed."Ah, I won't run. I am willing to be a happy prisoner," Erin said self-deprecatingly.Ryder rolled his eyes, his expression full of sourness.Kylan caught his expression and patted his shoulder without saying a word.As Erin put on the ring, everyone pres
Five minutes later, the doorbell rang again as Enny started doing Erin's makeup."I'll get it, Mom. You stay seated, okay?" Enny said."Fine, Mommy won't move." Erin winked at her. Seconds later, Enny shouted, "Godfather!""Enny! You look so beautiful!" The joy in the man's voice was palpable.Erin stood up and walked to the living room, knowing Sean had arrived.By then, Sean and another man had already entered.They closed the door behind them."Erin, I've brought a makeup artist for you," Sean said with a slight smile.The man beside him bowed politely to her. "Hello, Ms. Lane!""Maya, your male disguise is a total failure. You just slapped on some rough makeup without even wearing a realistic mask. You don't look like a man at all," Erin teased with a laugh.Maya couldn't help but laugh. "Mr. Frost's security measures are too strict. If I had worn a stranger's male mask, I wouldn't have been allowed in, and I would have been detained.""Why go through all the trouble o
Meanwhile, Erin had just gone to open the door of her hotel room.To her surprise, the person at the door was Roman."Rom! It's really you!" Erin exclaimed with joy. Dressed in a tailored white suit, Roman held a bouquet and joked, "Do you need to check my face to make sure I'm not wearing a mask?""Haha! I know it's you! Come in and let's talk. Thank you for the flowers!" Erin took the bouquet he offered and invited him inside.A minute later, Roman was sitting on the couch.He looked out to the underwater world from the floor-to-ceiling windows and remarked, "Enny and Eddie must really love this room.""Yes, the kids could watch it all night. Chandler specifically chose this type of room for the children," Erin explained.As Erin placed the fresh flowers in a vase, Roman inquired, "Where's Chandler?"Erin replied, "You should know what he's busy with, right?"Roman's gaze turned indecipherable, his tone probing as he asked, "You already know?"Erin laughed. "Yes. Did it d
Jill naturally denied it when she heard the question. "We didn't expose anything! Erin just happened to see us. What could we do? Pretend we don't know her? That's not realistic at all!""Did you really say nothing?" Ryder asked doubtfully.Calix was also skeptical as he questioned, "Erin is so sharp, and both of your acting skills are so poor. She must have figured it out."Tina exclaimed defensively, "We really didn't say anything! You two are so annoying! I'm dying of thirst here! Jill, hurry up and open the door. We can talk inside.""Yeah, I'm thirsty too," Jill echoed. She took out her room card, swiped it, and opened the door.The two women were about to close the door when Ryder stopped it with his hand. He asked, "What are you doing, not letting us in?""What are you coming in for? Don't you have your own room? Go away, we're going to take a nap!" Jill said grumpily."Taking a nap at this hour? Are you two pigs? The rehearsal is about to start," Ryder pointed out."W
