If they had spoken privately about not having any awards in their acting career, Bella would not have felt that she was embarrassing herself. She initially did not pursue the path of a professional actress. But, the numbers on her films broadcast would leave other same-generation actresses in the dust. She was very confident of her own commercial value.However, Stella had stabbed her right where it hurt and directly hit her Achilles heel with one swing. Seeing her not responding for a long while, Stella smiled through her eyes. "Ms. Young, why aren't you speaking? Is it because you have so many awards that you can't think of one with the heaviest weight on you?"Bella squeezed out a smile and said, "I don't really care about these vain credits. If the masses think it's good, then it's good. Each judge has a different opinion on acting, so you can't just use awards to weigh the ability of someone's acting.""Oh," Stella nodded her head. "I instead feel that the judge's insights are
"Yeah, we are not done enjoying it, yet the song ended. Another song!"Some even commented, "It was like a song from the heavens."Stella endured it for a long time to avoid saying something to critique it. She was slightly thirsty and turned around to see a water bottle in Keegan's hand. She then went over to him.The moment she reached him, she asked, "Mr. Kane, are you going to drink that bottle of water?"Keegan glanced at her and said, "No, I'm not drinking it.""Then, I'll be taking this away," Stella said as she took the bottle in his hand. She twisted it open and drank it all by herself. Keegan was at a loss for words.Bella enjoyed the praise from every direction. After a while, she smiled lightly and said, "Today is a gathering for the businesses of Rivera. The main characters of tonight are all the misters and madams present. I can't be the only one who hogs all the glory. How about this? Let's get a madam to be a representative. We can perform a four-handed duet. Is t
Stella had an uneasy expression, "Wouldn't I be taking advantage of you? What if the song I choose is something you aren't familiar with? Wouldn't you be at a loss? Let's forget about it."The corner of Bella's lips twitched, and she thought, 'Just to give herself an excuse, she would really dare to say anything.'She could now confirm that Stella did not know how to play the piano. Otherwise, she would not have refused time and time again. Stella had made a fool of Bella just now, so how could Bella let her off that easily? The more she did not want to come, the more Bella tried to invite her.Bella smiled and said, "You can choose at your own ease. I will definitely be able to follow your tempo. Mr. Kane would definitely look forward to your performance."Stella looked at Keegan and whispered, "Do I really need to go?"Keegan glanced at her and replied, "Up to you."Stella was slightly upset and said, "Then, I humbly oblige."As she went and left with Bella, Vermont said, "Bel
Their surroundings were silent, and only the sound of water and the piano melody wafted by their ears.Unlike Bella, Stella did not concern herself too much with what she wore. She was afraid of the cold, so her skirt was paired with a white coat. As for her hair, it was brushed into a simple low ponytail. The bangs on her forehead scattered across her face when she lowered her head to play the piano. Her pursed red lips had a chilly presence that made her stand out. She was breathtakingly beautiful.Marshall watched her silently while the wine glass in his hand was unconsciously gripped tightly. Vermont was shocked when he heard it from the side.There was only one line in his mind currently. 'How many more surprises do you have hidden for your majesty?'Only Keegan had watched the whole thing calmly. Stella chose this song, and truthfully like she said, she had an advantage. Stella would practice this song using the piano in their music room at home. At the start, she could not p
"Maybe next time." Bella forced a smile. "I'm a little off my game today."Stella felt unfortunate as she said, "That's too bad."Although she said that, she did not look like she meant what she said at all.Bella knew if she stayed, she would be a laughingstock. So, she said she wanted to change her clothes. She used that as an excuse to leave.Stella tutted to herself, 'I gave her a chance, but she didn't take it. If we were to play one more song, I would be the one crying.'After she walked lightly back to Keegan, Vermont then came to her and complimented her, "Stella, you're awesome. I can't believe you can play the piano so well."Stella put on an act successfully. Without thinking, she bragged, "It was alright. Actually, I haven't been playing the piano for a long time. I'm quite rusty.""You can play the piano so fluently even when you're rusty. Your basic skills are really good, then."Stella waved her hand and said, "It's just so-so.""Stella, can you play 'Por una Ca
Coincidentally, a few bosses came to chat with Keegan. So, Stella went to the pool to find Arthur.The old man did not stop having fun. After he had won some money in the casino, he then went to the swimming pool to have a breath-holding contest with a bunch of young people.When Stella got there, Arthur had already won one round. He was flicking his finger on a young man's head who had just lost the contest to him.Stella was speechless.She incredulously asked Aldor, who had been sticking around with Arthur, "How long did he hold his breath for?""Over thirty seconds."Stella was confused."He won the contest just by holding his breath for over thirty seconds?" Stella then thought, 'These male office workers are so weak.'Aldor coughed softly and said, "Mr. Jewell introduced himself as the great-grandfather of Mr. Kane before the contest."Stella was left speechless again.'So, he didn't win the contest. He made others throw the game by using Keegan's name.'Stella laughed
Stella did not expect Bella to act so insanely. Luckily, she reacted quickly and managed to grab the guardrail in time.But Bella was very strong. She seemed as though she would not give up until she could pull Stella down into the water. Stella realized that she could not free herself. So, she kicked Bella.'Get off!' Stella thought.Bella was then kicked into the water out of fear by Stella.Mrs. Chapman suddenly screamed behind Stella. "Help, somebody. Someone fell into the water!"Her voice instantly alerted everyone on deck."Who dropped into the water?""I think it's Ms. Young.""Oh, my god. She was just fine a while ago. How did she fall into the water?""Mrs. Chapman said she saw Ms. Young arguing with Mrs. Kane. Then, she heard the sound of water splashing after a short while.""Are you saying that Mrs. Kane pushed her into the water?""I didn't say that."People were talking about the incident on the ship.When they saw Keegan, everyone kept quiet.Keegan came f
"It's just a minor injury. It'll be fine even without medication. Sorry for troubling you."Although she said that, she still welcomed him into her room.She put the clothes on the couch aside and then asked Marshall to sit. "Mr. Moore, is plain water okay with you?"Marshall nodded. "Sure."Stella then poured a glass of water and gave it to him.Marshall opened the bag. He took out the medicated oil from the bag and handed it to her. "Rub some oil on your injury."Stella then took the oil. She bent her eyes as she thanked him. She immediately opened the bottle of oil and softly rubbed the oil on her wrist.Marshall looked around the room before he asked, "Where's Keegan?"Stella stopped moving for a moment. She pursed her lips as she said, "I'm not sure."When the security personnel on the ship accompanied Bella back to her cabin, she pulled Keegan to tell him something. After she got back to her room, Keegan then gave Stella an excuse to go out.'Where else can this piece o
