When the box was opened, Ninian saw a beautiful crown before her.Its craftsmanship was exquisite and detailed. Besides, it had a fashionable and popular design. If Ninian remembered correctly, this crown should be one of the final models at the Royal Auction in Famarmoa not long ago.Even the royal princess of Famarmoa had failed to bid on it because an anonymous person had bought it.“Is this…” Ninian muttered with surprise and astonishment. “Is this the crown named ‘Treasure of the Century?’”Everett nodded. He picked up the crown and carefully put it on Ninian’s head.He looked at her with a serious gaze as if he was staring at his most important treasure.“This is my first birthday gift to you. This is to celebrate the birth of my princess eighteen years ago and how she became my savior.”Ninian was startled, and her eyes slowly became teary.Subsequently, Everett opened the second box.There was a pair of exquisite and stunning crystal shoes.“You started learning how
After Everett looked up at her and pursed his lips, he finally said, “Yes.”He was not willing to recall what happened three years ago.Whenever he thought of that scene where she was nearly defiled, he would feel his emotions spiral out of control slightly. He wanted to kill.Besides, he had fallen sick back then. He guessed that he must have scared her too.Everett changed the subject. “Enjoy the food. It won’t taste as good once it turns cold.”“Okay,” Ninian answered obediently. She lowered her head gloomily and appeared a little dispirited.Everett, whom she had been longing for, refused to recall the incident where he had saved her. It confused Ninian, but she felt disappointed more than anything.Everett seemed to notice her lousy mood. He looked at Ninian and softly asked, “Ninian, can I make a request?”“Huh?” Ninian raised her head and looked at him with her big eyes. Her gloominess instantly faded, and her eyes were bright. “What is it? Tell me.”“The way you call m
“Haha!“Haha!”In the apartment, Ninian held her face and sat on the couch as she kept chuckling in a silly way.Nerola and Lana at the side exchanged looks, and they saw fear in each other’s eyes.“What’s wrong with her? Has she gone crazy?”“I don’t know. I was on leave for a few days, and she just returned from abroad. Why is she behaving abnormally now?”Nerola and Lana looked at each other at a loss.Nerola stroked her chin, and something flashed in her eyes. “Based on my experience, there’s only one sentence that can describe Ninian now. The girl’s in love,” she said.Lana found herself speechless.“Ninian!” Lana shouted, snapping Ninian out of her daze.She turned back and asked in confusion, “Huh? What happened?”“Tell me, honestly. What happened to you these past few days?” Lana put her hands on her waist like a little fighter and asked in an imposing manner, “Why is your laughter so impure? Did you have some kind of affair out there?”Ninian remained silent for a
Ninian could not be in a relationship when her career was developing. It would affect her reputation.However, if her boyfriend was Everett, the ban would nearly be equivalent to non-existent.After all, he was Everett!He was the top in the entertainment industry and the benchmark in film and television. Nobody could surpass his reputation and fame in their industry.Anyone slightly connected to him could instantly become famous.Furthermore, being in a relationship was shocking news.The agency and Amber would probably make Ninian the next top actress. Her fame would surge overnight from being in a defamed position. Then, her reputation would slowly turn and stabilize.Her career would be much better than that of any other female celebrities.But… The starting phase of this route would be filled with countless curses, and it would also seem like she was using Everett to become famous.Ninian would not be willing to do that.That was what worried Nerola.“It’s okay. Don’t
Everett was the most dazzling person in the crew, so almost everyone kept staring at him.Right then, they all saw what he was doing.Everett approached Ninian before their gaze of amazement. His tall figure hid the sunlight, and his indifferent aura also made Ninian subconsciously hold her breath.She really did not expect him to openly walk over. After all, their relationship was a secret. If their interaction in public was too strange, their relationship would probably be exposed, affecting Everett’s career as a result.But Everett did not seem to care about that.He raised his arm and helped Ninian tidy the bow on her head. He spoke only after he adjusted its position. “Wait for me. We’ll have lunch together.”Ninian’s mind went completely blank.Her surroundings were full of different gazes, but nearly everyone widened their eyes in shock. They stared at the scene in disbelief.Ninian was equally stunned.She nodded almost subconsciously, unable to think at all.Everett
Ninian did not care about it at all. She just walked straight to the shooting site.Due to her slacking over the past few days, she was not at her best. Luckily, Paul, who was acting opposite her, did not seem to be at his best either. They shot the scene a few times but failed to get it right, so the associate director allowed them to rest for a while and recollect themselves while the other actors filmed their scenes first.The associate director’s attitude remained good as if he did not blame them too much, but Ninian still felt guilty. She held her script and practiced repeatedly in front of a mirror.“Ninian.”Someone called her from the back. When Ninian turned around, she saw Paul walk over with the script and a tired expression.“Is this a good time for you? I’d like to practice the scene with you,” Paul said.Ninian nodded. “Great. I’d like to practice too.”They practiced two scenes in a short time and finally improved a little. Ninian gently breathed out, and her furr
She was still very young in the photo.She was wearing a blue and white school uniform. She had an energetic smile as she looked forward with her head tilted.It was not a photo of her from three years ago. Ninian could barely remember how old she was at that time. But she knew that she had no idea of Everett yet.Why would Everett have an old photo of her?Ninian held the photo while she got lost in her thoughts. Then, she heard someone knocking on the door behind her.She turned back to see Everett push the door open and walk inside.He was still dressed in a school uniform from the war era. His makeup had yet to be removed, and his expression was indifferent. He looked like a character who had just stepped out of the drama.“What a young, energetic, talented, and passionate student,” Ninian could not help but say. She tilted her head with a smile and complimented him. “How handsome! My boyfriend is really handsome!” Everett’s eyes were also filled with faint joy as he wal
For the first time ever, Everett’s eyes were sore.“Do you hate me?” he muttered.“I secretly stalked you like a pervert. I couldn’t help but pay attention to your every move.“Do you feel afraid when you think of me?”When Ninian heard his words, she frowned slightly. She began to look very serious and stern, as though she had realized the importance of the question.She tilted her head and asked, “Did you frequently sneak shots of me?” Everett shook his head.He had been afraid of disturbing her, so he would just silently watch her from afar. Zayn had hired someone to secretly take the photo to calm him down when he fell sick and mentally collapsed.At that time, he had ruthlessly taught Zayn a lesson, but in the end, he still failed to destroy the photo.Therefore, the photo accompanied him year after year, and he never intended to throw it away.Ninian nodded and further asked, “Did you collect anything from me?”Everett shook his head.“Did you disturb me?”After Eve
