Stuart was at a loss for words."Does he know how to spell the word 'shy'?"Stuart had worked with Leighton before.'The guy might look cold, but he's actually a shameless bastard. The last time we shot a bathroom scene in a drama, I initially asked Leighton if he wanted to clear the scene. But, Leighton asked me if he should offer his first on-screen nudity and that he was willing to expose his derrière for theater. Is this something a shy person would say?' he thought.Estelle thought to himself, 'Whether he's shy or not depends on who he's with."He then glanced at the time and said, "Have some tea first, Mr. Winfield. Feel free to take a look around. I'll go upstairs and call for Leighton."Seeing how Stuart nodded, Estelle went upstairs.Estelle went up to the clothes room upstairs. When he opened the door, he saw Leighton shirtless. Leighton was rummaging through his clothes with his buttocks clenched together.Estelle could not help but put his hand over his forehead."
'I can finally openly meet Stella's gaze this time.' Leighton's heart thumped loudly. Then, he stiffened his face so that he would not reveal his emotions.However, from Stella's point of view, Leighton seemed a little cold.'He also didn't accept my friend request on WhatsApp. Is it because he's worried that his fans will be unhappy if he gets too close to an actress? He's an idol, after all. So, he needs his fans' support and needs to consider their feelings,' she thought."These flowers... Did you buy them?" Leighton asked in a low voice.Stella snapped out of her thoughts and nodded. "I don't know what you like, so I bought a few stalks of everything," she said.Leighton's ears turned red. He thought, 'She personally picked out these flowers for me.'Leighton lowered his gaze and stared at the bouquet. Then, he said in a low voice, "I like freesias."Stella was at a loss for words.'What a coincidence. There's not a single stalk of freesia in my bouquet. Leighton must be bl
Yolanda was so pleased when she saw Stella chickened out.Leighton's eyes narrowed when he saw his goddess being pushed away by this woman with a lasciviousness outfit in front of him. 'Where did this bitch come from?'Yolanda did not realize that Leighton's mood had changed. She asked, "So, are we going to exchange each other's contact?"Leighton glanced at her and replied, "Have you read the script?""Of course.""Didn't you know that there are only four lines between us after reading the script? How poor is your acting if you need a rehearsal for four lines?"Yolanda's face froze. She just wanted to get Leighton's WhatsApp number, not a rehearsal. The ways to survive in show business for actors like her who survived under pressure without strength and popularity were to play at the gallery and ride on the wave of those with high popularity. With Leighton's popularity, even a celebrity like Bella wanted to be a showmance with him, let alone Yolanda.Yolanda, too, wanted to tak
"You're good-looking but age is catching up. You lack the vibrancy of youth. Leighton, on the other hand, is young, and his smooth skin is delightful to touch. The fans' motto for Leighton is that life is incomplete without a night with him. You can gauge his popularity from this," Vermont remarked.Keegan was left speechless.Observing Keegan's infuriated expression, Vermont added insult to injury with malice. "I heard Leighton plays a couple with Stella in the show. Not sure if there's any intimate scene, though. Imagine the frenzy among fans watching a handsome man and a beautiful woman kissing and hugging."Vermont did not care if the fans were crazy. He mainly wanted to see Keegan go crazy.Keegan stared at Vermont's gloating expression and suddenly said, "Was the meal cooked by Ms. Thompson for that month delicious?"Vermont paused, and he played dumb as usual. "What meal?"Keegan glanced at him. "Ms. Thompson entrusted you to investigate Hylda. Are you happy when you use t
Hylda had been with Albert for so many years without the status of being his wife. Although she was Mrs. Jewell now, she still bears the infamy.Albert was stupid and was not as manipulative as Hylda. How could she remain loyal to Albert? She was so deliberate. Of course, it was for her status and children. Albert was old with a patriarchal attitude and had a strong concept of heirs. Hylda birth him a son and a daughter. After he died, the property of the Jewell family would naturally belong to these two children. She was paving the way for her children.Vermont was also a person who knew much news about the rich and powerful families in Rivera. However, what Hylda did was totally new for him. Forbearance for more than 20 years and sent her daughter to the Jewell family to let the legal wife help raise her. Then, she got a toy boy, pretended he was her younger cousin, and made him the lover of the richest woman in Rivera to pave the way for her children. None of the mistresses he h
However, Vermont had always taken this incident to heart. At that time, he thought Marshall's grandpa was like his classmates. They did not like him because his family made a fortune in the fishing business and was a little low-class.After Vermont graduated, he started his business and achieved outstanding achievements in his field. Then, he gradually understood that Marshall's grandpa looked down on him for his background. Even if he obtained his current status with his own effort, for Marshall's grandpa, Vermont still did not have blue blood and will never meet his requirement.Frederick was a typical old fogy born under feudal dogma. He was different from those who were snobs. Those snobs changed their attitude according to the situation and entertained those with high popularity. As for Frederick, he never cared how successful you were in the future. The pecking order was his way of treating people.In Frederick's eyes, a rich and powerful family like Keegan's was gentility. In
Upon hearing there was delicious food waiting, Vermont quickly responded, "I've got nothing on my plate tonight. I'll be back early."Felicity sneered, but her voice remained compliant and sweet, "I'll be waiting for you."Meanwhile, Stella waited for a bit before Keegan replied. He sent a photo of himself working in the lab. It was a candid shot taken during a press release for the company website. He wore a black shirt, standing in front of a lab table, attentively studying data on a tablet. Rimless glasses hung on the bridge of his nose.The photo, taken from a slight angle, showcased Keegan's perfectly chiseled jawline that almost seemed too ideal. The black shirt's sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, with a couple of buttons undone at the neckline. His slightly elevated Adam's apple aligned gracefully with the curve of his chin and collarbone. Keegan emitted an air of precision and austerity, enhanced by the presence of glasses.Leighton's photo was full of vigor and youthfu
Stella was already standing in front of Leighton before she realized it.Leighton found out there was not much space left after dragging Stella over, so he turned around and said to Bella, "Move to the side."Bella was speechless.Everyone else had all kinds of different looks on their faces, and the one on Bella looked awful.Leighton hated fauxmance. When they worked together previously, Bella tried to look intimate with him twice. As a result, he unfollowed her on social media.It attracted a lot of people's attention and went viral. Leighton's fans said that Bella threw herself to him. Bella's team contacted Leighton and asked him to clarify that, but Leighton's team blocked them instead.'He didn't want to be in fauxmance with me, yet he has no problem doing that with Stella? Besides, why should I stand aside for her? I'm more experienced than her in this industry. Who does she think she is?'Leighton frowned after seeing Bella just stand there without moving. "Why are you
