After he hung up the phone, Keegan stayed in the car for a moment before exiting the vehicle. Aldor was smoking beside the car.He saw Keegan come over and wanted to put out his cigarette. Aldor knew that Keegan did not like the smell of tobacco since he did not touch it except during social engagements.Keegan stopped him and casually asked, "Do you have more?"Aldor opened his cigarette pack and shook one out before handing it to him. The flame sparked by the lighter was blown to the side by the sea breeze. Aldor used his hands to block them, and Keegan took a puff of the cigarette. The tip of the cigarette flickered before finally lighting itself.He blew out a mouthful of smoke while leaning by the car with Aldor and staring into the distance with half-shut eyes.Aldor then said, "Mr. Kane, why didn't you tell the madam the thing about you doing the surgery?"He was talking about the vasectomy, and Keegan did not speak. Aldor assumed that he did not want to answer and did not
Coco was merely not as fair as Keegan, but she was not considered dark-skinned. That mouth of his was ruthless even to little girls.Keegan took out his phone and showed a picture to Aldor. Aldor's body immediately tensed up. Keegan raised his gaze and his hand to make a zipping gesture around his mouth. He then raised an eyebrow and asked, "Understand?"Aldor nodded his head profusely. Keegan put his phone away and snuffed out his cigarette. "Get in the car to rest for a while. Send her back once day breaks."The following morning, Stella was woken up by Aldor. When she opened her eyes, she was already in the car. Outside the car was the training base. Aldor, who was sitting in the driver's seat, turned around and said to her, "Madam, It's half past seven. After you go back and tidy yourself up a bit, you should go to your classes."Stella blinked several times since her brain was still not fully conscious. She groggily said her farewells and got out of the car.When she reached
Everyone came back to their senses. With everyone wearing white and pink dance costumes, Stella stood out with that dash of red. It was so obvious that people became suspicious that she intentionally wanted to show off her difference. On collective occasions, people hated special treatment like this. If one did well, one would stand out and outshine others. However, if one didn't do well, one might end up dragging everyone down.So, when Bella spoke up, some of them were no longer looking friendly toward Stella.Stella knew about this, but she did what she had to do at the moment. No one actually cared what was wrong with her clothes; they only cared about the final result.When Stuart heard Bella, he asked, "Stella, why did you wear this? Where's your costume?"Stella did not answer his question. "Mr. Winfield. I kept thinking about Georgia's character. I remember she had a privileged background. She has a cold and arrogant personality since she never had any hardships in life. Th
The videographer had never seen such a photogenic actress before. Stella was flawless from every angle. From his past experience with other artists, he had to film them from specific angles. Most of the actors relied on lighting and makeup. Some famous actors would even scold the photographer and demand a reshoot when they thought that they did not look photogenic.They were also extremely reliant on post-production. They would demand the staff to retouch their image frame by frame. As a result, the audience would skip their scenes because their skin was edited so much that their jawlines were no longer visible. The audience continued watching the scenes of others as usual.Therefore, photographers and the post-production team loved actors who were photogenic, like Stella. They would love to work on Stella only. After two tries, the director was satisfied with the footage. However, Bella did not look satisfied.Bella and Stella stood side-by-side. Bella knew that Stella was very pre
Stella's tongue pressed against the roof of her mouth and glanced at Bella. The latter smirked, and her eyes were glowing with venom. Meanwhile, Yolanda gloated, "Come on, hurry up. Don't waste our time. Mr. Winfield is going to treat us to lunch after this."Stella shifted her attention. When she was about to speak, the training door opened. A gentle voice sounded. "Mr. Winfield, can I bother you for a second?"Stella paused and turned to see Marshall smiling at the door, holding a lot of coffee in his hand. Stuart was startled, but he immediately showed a big smile on his face. "Marshall, what brings you here?"Stella was confused. Marshall gently replied, "I heard from a friend that you were preparing for a new show and was training the actors here. I came to visit since I was passing by." He then turned to face the audience. "I'm not disturbing, am I?""Nonsense. we're not even filming for real, so it's not considered a disturbance. I'm happy you're here," Stuart said, as he to
Stuart replied, "As soon as Stella changed into a new set of clothes." He then ushered Stella. "Go get changed."Stella nodded in response and took a sideway glance at Yolanda before she headed out the door. Felicity called right at the moment she left. She said while panting, "Stella, which floor are you on?""I'm on the second floor," said Stella as she paused and replied with a smile, "I see you."Bella and Yolanda were sitting in the rehearsal room when Yolanda said, "Her clothes were already torn yet she still excused herself to get changed. I'm interested in seeing how she will lie her way out when she didn't change her clothes."Bella asked, "Are you sure you shredded her clothes?""I personally shredded it until it was beyond recognition. I heard from someone in the same dorm that she threw it straight into the bin," she snickered and continued, "She wouldn't rummage the bin, so she could put it on, would she?"Yolanda was not the slightest bit worried. She handed a cup o
Stella held no ill will when she said that. Although it was not out of concern for Bella's livelihood, Bella's face was abnormally pale. She was afraid that Bella's condition might delay the filming progress. In Bella's ears, it was akin to sarcasm. Bella stared coldly at Stella and said, "Just do your own part!"Stella shrugged. 'I was worried for nothing.'The cast once again went back into dance formation and danced according to the instructions of the dance instructor. Bella had barely danced and was already out of breath. She was groggy and her vision was a blur. Suddenly, her vision turned dark, and she fell down heavily on the floor. She lay on the floor with a pale face as her body spasmed. She was unable to stand up again.That scared the wits out of the cast members around her as they started shrieking.Stuart blanked out for a moment before he immediately called the ambulance. Tammy, Bella's assistant, soon arrived. She looked at Bella's condition and started ordering th
Marshall nodded and replied, "That's fine with me."Stella then picked a Yostranian restaurant for two reasons. First, it would look more formal. And second, Felicity liked Yostrainian meals. She could not pick out which Yostrainian meal was better, so as the safest option, she picked out the one that Keegan often brought her, which was their steak.She then ordered the usual set meal Keegan ordered and handed the menu over to Felicity. After having a look at the menu, Felicity's eyes almost popped out. 'My gosh! I can't believe the steak here cost almost one thousand dollars. If I'd known earlier, I would've gone home and made teriyaki with that Stinky Cucumber. One big plate of that doesn't even cost one-tenth of the price.'Not daring to blindly choose, she picked the same set meal as Stella and Marshall soon picked out his meal as well. Felicity had a favorable impression of Marshall, as he had helped out Stella time after time. Besides, having a lawyer as a friend made her feel
