Chapter 52 Act Accordingly

Author: Ann1
Without notice, Chloe scooted to Adeline and sat down next to her. Curious, she asked, "What were you talking about just now? Something about an elephant?"

Adeline stared at the pot of boiling soup placed in front of them. Her stomach growled as she watched the chili flakes float atop the surface, sniffing in the fragrant aroma of the spicy chili oil.

"Zane Koch—Adrian's manager—called me earlier. He wanted to talk about what happened with me and Adrian yesterday," Adeline explained as he put some mutton into the boiling pot.

Chloe's eyes widened when she heard Adeline, "He didn't have your name put on a blacklist, did he?"

Adeline put down the utensil in her hands. She thought about the question and carefully articulated her answer, "I don't think so. He offered me a role as an extra and asked me to go to his company tomorrow."

"I don't think it's that simple, Adeline. Most artist's managers hate it when the artists they manage were to get involved in any

    "Hi, this is the script that Mr. White asked me to give you. Take a look at it and memorize your lines," Neil, Malcom's assistant, told Adeline.  Adeline took the script and smiled at him, "Thank you!" "Read it over. Feel free to ask me if you come across anything you need clarification on." Neil was a gentlemanly young man, and the pair of glasses he wore further emphasized it so. Soon later, Adeline found somewhere to sit down and began reading. According to the script, she would be playing as the female lead's servant. She was going to be slapped across the face by the female lead because the female lead found out that her servant had fallen in love with the man she loved. Adeline was rather satisfied with the plot. Although there weren't many lines for her role, it was good enough for someone who was still in acting school. Not a moment later, Chloe carried her bag and ran over to Adeline. Panting, she whispered, "Sorry, I'm a little late. Someth

    "Miss, I'm so sorry. But I'm begging you... Please let us leave together. We're truly in love—" "Slap—" Lydia was supposed to say some lines after that. But she only stared at Adeline for a long time before turning to Malcom and said, "Mr. White, I'm sorry. I was too nervous, and I forgot all my lines..." Adeline touched her cheek. Lydia had hit her a little harder than she expected, and a pinkish palm print showed up on her fair face almost instantly. Lydia looked at Adeline apologetically and said, "I'm sorry. I might've been a little too heavy-handed... Mr. White told me to make it look real, so I really have no choice. I'll try to be as gentle as I can later." Looking at Lydia's guiltless expression, Adeline smiled, "It's fine, I understand. Scenes like this are inevitable, anyway." Chloe hastily ran up to Adeline with an ice pack in her hand. Then, she put it on Adeline's cheek and asked worriedly, "Does it hurt a lot? Goodness, that looked like

    Lydia started to throw things around and yelled at Malcom in a fit of rage, "Are you hearing yourself? How can I act as the servant?" Malcom had had enough of Lydia's stubbornness and arrogant behavior. With equal rage, he roared at her, "I don't care! But think before you say you can't. Because if you don't want this role right now, you can say goodbye to acting forever." Malcom's words startled not only Lydia but everyone else on the set too. People started staring at Adeline curiously, contemplating whether her identity to make Malcom came to such a conclusion. Adeline was distressed at being stared and pried upon like that. She didn't know what exactly was going on, and she wondered if it was Adrian helping her in secret. On the other hand, Lydia was stumped after she heard Malcom. She slumped in the chair in silence. No one knew what she was thinking. When she finally came to a decision, she let out a long sigh and said, "Fine, I'll do it." Adeline wa

    The masked man had already walked a distance away from them when Adeline came to her senses. She turned and looked at Culver questioningly. Culver shrugged and looked at Adeline, "Well, since he's fine with it, come and join us!" "Right, okay then. I'll be with you both in a moment. Let me make a call to my friend first." "Alright. I'll wait for you by the elevator." Adeline's heart was pounding hard in her chest. Somehow, her guts told her that it wasn't a wise choice to have a meal with them. However, the masked man didn't even give her a chance to refuse them. With that, Adeline reluctantly called Chloe to let her know that they were going to dine in a different restaurant. Chloe replied and said that she would join them momentarily as she had just met an old friend. She also said that she would cancel their order with the steakhouse. Ending the call, Adeline remained standing at the same spot and looked towards where the elevator was. Culver and

    In the meantime, Adeline had managed to soothe her coughing. So, when Alan handed her the glass, she didn't hesitate to pick it up and drank a few mouthfuls to ease her strained throat.  Then, she glared at Culver, and pursed her lips, "I wouldn't give you guys a second glance. You're both too distant and uptight. I prefer a man who is bright and laid-back." Because Alan was sitting right beside Adeline, she couldn't help but notice Alan's eyes darkened when he heard her answer. She couldn't figure out what he was thinking. Culver grinned impishly at Adeline and pressed, "But why?" "Well, didn't you notice that I'm sitting so straight up like I'm being punished?" With that said, Adeline glanced at Alan next to her. "Well then, maybe you should relax. We don't bite!" Culver pressed his lips together and teased. Adeline rolled her eyes at him, ignoring his comment.  ...... Culver didn't seem to mind her cold shoulder. "So... Are you s

    Adeline was shocked to hear Chloe broke her words so soon. Her face darkened as she glared at Chloe, "Fine. Then we won't be friends anymore." Chloe huffed out a breath at that. Then, she said in feigned sadness, "But you said they're aloof and distant. If even you can't handle their coldness, do you think I can be of any use? I'd be like a deer in headlights! Don't tell me that you're so stony-hearted that you're willing to see me suffer?"  Adeline pouted, "You're right... I wouldn't be able to do so. But come on, are you going to just let me suffer? You know, at some point today, I actually thought I was going to turn into a statue!" "Relax, Adeline. If you really turned into a statue tomorrow, rest assured that I'll be by your side no matter what..." Chloe said while giving Adeline a comforting look. Adeline then pursed her lips in reply, "What do you think you can do after I turned into a statue, then?" Chloe smiled sheepishly at Adeline.

    Ethan lifted her head and saw Adeline standing by the door. He smiled at her and greeted, "Hey, Adeline. Are you here to see Christiano?" "Yeah. Is he doing better?" Adeline smiled and asked. She was about to walk in when Ethan coughed softly to bring her attention to him. He said, "Yes, I think you can say so... Look, Adeline, I'm afraid you can't see Christiano today. I just did some tests on him, and his condition right now isn't conducive to receive any visitors."  "Oh, okay. Then I'll come over tomorrow," Adeline said. Her eyes darted across the room to try to look inside the isolated room where Christiano was. Then, she turned back to Ethan and asked, "Ethan, will he really get better?" Ethan sighed softly, "Judging by how it looks, he will wake up when he wants to. But you don't have to be too worried about him, because I'm pretty sure that day isn't far off." Adeline couldn't really understand what Ethan was saying. So, she just assumed that

    Adeline took the elevator back down to the bar. She walked towards the counter and asked, "Hi, do you have anything that can help sober someone up?" "Sorry, miss. This is a bar. We don't do that here. Maybe you can take a look at the shops outside to see if they have what you want," the bartender laughed and replied. Adeline gave the bartender a faint smile, and then turned to leave. It was ten at night, a time where the city only started to buzz with life as youngsters filled the streets.  As Adeline walked along the streets alone, she spotted many couples. They were all leaning close to each other, whispering sweet nothings amongst themselves. Their attention was entirely on their partners, not a care in the world about their surroundings.  "Boss, isn't that Miss Simpson?" asked Seth as he pointed at Adeline's back. Adrian was already upset because Adeline wasn't answering his calls or text messages. Thinking that Seth must be messing with him, he

    "Xiaowan..." Christiano yelled at the top of the mountain. His sorrowful voice lingered around the valley for a long time... A year later... The Lockwood family in Caulford City was the wedding day of Sandrino and Gu Xiaobei's wedding. Almost all the influential people in the business world were present. The wedding was very lively. When Gu Xiaobei heard that her big belly was slowly showing up, Sandrino hurriedly went up to her and said, "Didn't I tell you to stay in your room? Why did you come out?" "Is it really boring to stay in the room? Besides, it's my wedding today. As a bride, of course, I should come out and have a look!" Looking at Gu Xiaobei, who was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, Lu Yangzhe's face was full of helplessness and love. A year ago, the trap of the Huya Mountain was destroyed. Adeline, Bai Qian'er, and Alice were all missing. Lu Yang was seriously ill. Bai Ye and all of Kaiser's followers were a

    "What's wrong with you?" Seeing that no one was talking, Gu Xiaobei just looked at her stupidly. "Adele, your president is..." "It's my dad!" Before Bai Ziqi could finish her words, she was caught by Gu Xiaobei. "The reason why Brother Lu's case can be found out so quickly is also because of you?" "Not entirely. I just mentioned it to my father when I went back, but he said that it was a matter of your country. Because it didn't involve other countries, he couldn't show up. Just when I didn't know what to do, I suddenly sent an email, which was full of crimes committed by Queen Yea over the years. Because the crime committed by Queen Yea has seriously affected many countries, my father asked people to investigate it. What followed is what you saw." Gu Xiaobei's words were very relaxed. Bai Zixi sighed and said, "No wonder. I was wondering why the U.S. was so straightforward this time. It turned out that there was someone behind it." As he

    Nan Xin looked at Xiaodong carefully and found that he was not uncomfortable, so he stopped asking. At this time, Adeline woke up. "What's wrong with me?" "You fainted just now. Maybe it's because of the poison barrier here. But now you have taken the herbs that specialize in treating the poison barrier. It's all right." "Sorry to have caused you so much trouble." As he struggled, Adeline saw Bai Ye and the European Emperor confronting each other with guns. "Bai Ye, you actually dared to secretly bring Su and the others here behind Queen Kaiser's back. Are you trying to steal those treasures for yourself?" Bai Ye sneered and looked at the Ou Emperor, saying, "Emperor Ou, since you found out, I'm not afraid of you knowing. What can you do to me if I want to monopolize those treasures, or are you willing to be a dog around her?" "Bai Ye, Queen Kaiser treats you well. Don't you think you're ungrateful?" Hearing this, Bai Ye laughed out loud.

    Early the next morning, Adeline and the others were woken up by the sound of gunshots. "What happened?" Alice opened the zipper of the tent and walked out. They saw that their tent had already been surrounded by Bai Ye's men. Soon, they knew what was going on. However, soon after, the gunshots came to an abrupt end. Adeline didn't seem to mind at all, only tightly holding Little Dong in his arms. "It seems that some people can't wait to start." "Xiaowan, do you think Ling Yu and Tang Qi will be discovered by them?" There was a strong smell of blood in the air. Luo Luo said with some fear. Compared with Alice, he was calmer. He comforted her and said, "Don't worry. Since they know our purpose, they won't act on their own." "Luoluo, you have to trust Ling Yu." "Yes." At this time, Xie San's voice came from outside the tent. "Xiaowan, get ready. It's time to go." Xie San's voice was low and deep, very pleasant to listen to.

    "Since he is leading the way, let's take him with us!" Adeline pulled the child to his side and glared at the two men with an ugly expression. "Then I'll have to trouble you, Miss Simpson." "Time to go!" Looking at their backs, the man next to Bai Ye said unhappily, "Why is Old Master so partial to her?" "Whether we can find the treasure or not depends on them. Let's follow them for the time being." How could someone who had accomplished great things care about these trivial matters? "Sister, I want to go home." As soon as the little boy got rid of the men's hands, he cried loudly. Adeline knew that Bai Ye would never agree to let him go. The reason why she took him to her side was that she hoped that she could take more care of him along the way. "I'm sorry, little brother. This sister helped you temporarily, because she was caught by them just like you." "Don't worry. Staying with us is better than staying with those p

    Taoping Town was an ancient town. It was surrounded by mountains and beautiful scenery. Perhaps because of the natural environment, all the people here lived a particularly happy life. Young people would go out to adventure, and some old people would stay in the estate left by the ancestors of the guardian. Perhaps it was because of the special environment here, and there were often grave robbers here. However, the appearance of so many people this time made the people of Tanping Town a little scared. Everyone would stand at the door of their own houses and look at those people. "Grandpa, what are these people doing here?" A little boy looked up at the old man standing beside him and asked in a low voice. "No matter what they are doing, it has nothing to do with us anyway. Let's go inside." "Are they here for the baby tiger?" As soon as he finished speaking, the old man covered his mouth in a hurry, and his face changed slightly. He scolded angrily,

    Three days later, Adeline followed Bai Ye to Yaoping Town, but he didn't see Bai Lang. At this time, Tang Qi and the others, who had been waiting for Adeline in Tanping Town, had already received the news that Adeline had come in. "What should we do now?" After confirming the location of Adeline's residence, Tang Qi and the others gathered together to discuss how to rescue him. Suddenly, an uninvited guest came from outside the door. "Seventh Young Master, long time no see?" She walked in slowly with graceful steps and greeted Tang Qi with a faint smile. "Rumor has it that Young Master Rong isn't feeling well all year round and has been resting at home. I wonder what brought you here?" "Of course it's you." Hearing this, Tang Qi suddenly smiled. Two people came forward and hugged each other tightly, causing everyone present to be stunned. Especially Tang Qi, an inexplicable anger came from the bottom of her heart. She stepped forwar

    "In the past few days, you might be able to appease the employees of the company. You don't need to keep those who want to resign too much. What our Lu Enterprises needs is people who can fight to the death with the company, not people who run away when they are in trouble." "But big brother, there have been too many things happening in the past two years. If we do this again, won't it cause public disgust?" "In the end, Lu Yangzhe was still a little worried. After all, the power of public opinion is too great. It's okay for the country to be affected, but it'll be more difficult for foreign subsidiary companies and famous brands to rise again once they are seriously injured." "You have to remember that the reputation of a company is very important, but his quality is even more important. If everyone only likes this brand instead of the quality of our product, then it doesn't matter if you don't want such a customer." He, Christiano, wanted to do the best work.

    "Baby, can you understand the English on it?" Xu Lu came forward and asked, looking at the number that was quickly rolling on the screen. "Auntie, you don't know yet, do you? Zi Yao has the ability to see all kinds of things, and his English is better than mine." Jiaqi, who was standing by the side, seemed to have forgotten the unhappiness she had just had. She saw Lu Ziyan sitting in front of the computer table, looking particularly handsome. Her beautiful eyes were full of pride. It was as if she was the only one who had done it. "Do you all know each other?" Obviously, Bai Ziqi's words shocked both Bai Ziqi and Xu Ran so much that they couldn't even say a word. Was this still a three-year-old child? Why did they have a feeling that the sky was about to change? After making sure that Lu Ziming was fine, Bai Ziqi and Xu Lulu left the room, ready to inquire about Christiano's situation.
