Even after years of searching for her, he never found her again. Lucas missed that little girl so much and regretted it even more.Lucas was drunk yesterday. The long suppressed regret in his heart suddenly burst like a flood, drowning him.Lucas had no idea how he got to the restaurant. All he had in mind was to see her again. He had to see her. As if seeing Serenity would make him feel better.When Lucas met her, the Serenity in reality and the little girl in his memory constantly intertwined. As a result, he did something out of character.Although he was drunk, he remembered what he had done to her. He would not have cared if it was another woman, but Serenity was different.Not because she was Jackson's girlfriend. Rather because she was so much like the girl he imagined she would be when she grew up.Serenity was not the little girl he was searching for, but he did not want to be hated by her."No big deal. We're even," Serenity replied flatly. After all, she slapped him f
On Saturday afternoon, which was Serenity's day off from work, she was dragged along by Lisa to a roadshow event for a movie."Do you know how hard it was for me to grab these two tickets?!" Lisa babbled on. "Finn Gordon is going to be at the roadshow. He knows you, doesn't he? Could you say something to him for me, please? Could you at least persuade him to take a picture with me?"Lisa looked as if she was so eager to meet Finn Gordon that she was willing to do anything, even lay down her own life!"Why didn't you just come with Terry instead?" Serenity asked, thinking that Terry would have been of much more help to Lisa than she could ever be.Lisa's mouth twitched. The truth was that she had kept the fact that she was coming here a complete secret from Terry! Judging by that man's temper, she was certain that he would mope and sulk for days if he found out that she had snuck out to see Finn Gordon at a roadshow!In fact, Terry had forced her to drink so much that she had gotte
Serenity was completely taken aback. She never thought that the special guest of the event would turn out to be Aria.It was common for roadshows like this to invite a special guest as a surprise for the audience, but most of the time, the special guests would be A-List celebrities. Aria, on the other hand, was no more than a third-rate actress before she became Lucas Gomez's girlfriend and was not even that popular at all. In fact, it would not be an exaggeration to say that her current fame was all due to Lucas. Because of him, Aria had gained much more work and income from the moment she started dating him, but apart from some advertisements that had appeared in public, everything else she was involved in—television series, music singles—were all still in production, so she had not released anything to the public yet. To put it bluntly, the sole reason she had been invited here today was because of her relationship with Lucas Gomez.Lisa turned to her friend with a guilty face a
How could Lisa ever forget it when Terry had flat out warned her, "You're my girlfriend now, so if I ever find out that you got more intimate with that Finn Gordon guy than a normal fan should be with their idol, I'll make sure he gets blacklisted in the entertainment industry so you'd never even have a chance to see him on screen again!"If anyone else had said that, she would have laughed in their face, but considering that it was Terry White... Lisa thought of how petty and begrudging that man could be and started to fear that he might actually do such a horrendous thing.That was why she thought it best to forget about getting Finn Gordon's number. She would just take a picture with him, get his autograph and some more of his posters, and be content with it.Not long afterward, a young woman sprinted toward them and said, "Hello, Miss Lewis."Serenity recognized her to be Finn Gordon's assistant, the one she had seen standing beside him the last time she had met him."Hello,"
There was a small flight of steps behind Aria, and as she staggered backward, she tripped on it and instantly fell on the floor, and she cried out in pain."I was only trying to be nice to you, Sis! Why did you have to shove me away like that..."Aria seemed to be in pain, and her eyes were welling up with tears. She looked just like an innocent angel who had been wronged.This sudden change made the fans who were gathered at the entrance turn their attention to Serenity. Many of them pulled out their phones and started to snap photos.Serenity glared icily at Aria and said, "You know full well whether or not I shoved you just now.""How could you say that, Sis? I know that... that you haven't been out of prison for long, that's why you're still emotionally unstable, so I... I won't blame you for it."Not only was Aria acting the role of the innocent and pitiful younger sister in front of everyone, but she had also just publicly announced to the world that Serenity used to be in
But... that made no sense! Lucas Gomez was Aria's boyfriend! She was helping Aria just now, so if there was anyone Lucas was going to despise, it should be Aria's sister, not her!Lucas stepped forward silently, but before he could speak, the assistant eagerly added, "Mr. Gomez, Aria was only trying to help her sister and take her to Finn Gordon just now, but her sister flat out shoved her away! Aria even sprained her ankle because of her!"She was saying all this to encourage Lucas to take Aria's side and help her.And Aria was currently all misty-eyed. She looked heartrending as she tried to hold back her tears and say, "Don't... Don't listen to her, Lucas. My sister... She didn't mean it. It was actually my fault. I was not careful and tripped over my own feet. That's why I fell."But the more she acted that way, the more the public's blame shifted onto Serenity, and the more spiteful and domineering Serenity seemed, while Aria looked like the innocent and angelic younger sister
Serenity and Lisa finally arrived at Finn Gordon's lounge after following his assistant's lead. Finn turned out to be very warm and friendly with both of them. He even voluntarily asked them if they would like to take a photo with him and even told them, "If both of you would like tickets to my movies or anything like that in the future, just give me a call. I'll get my staff to send them to you right away."As he spoke, he took the initiative to give Lisa his private phone number himself. In his mind, after seeing Serenity with Jackson Valor that day and hearing from Mr. Valor himself saying that Serenity was his girlfriend, he naturally felt it wise to strike up a good friendship with this woman.After all, the more key connections you made in the entertainment industry, the better it would be.And seeing that Lisa was Serenity's best friend, he was naturally happy to extend the friendship to her as well. If Finn Gordon had voluntarily given his phone number to Lisa before wha
"Hehehe..." Lisa chuckled awkwardly, thinking that she should never have lied, because liars always got exposed.Terry then turned to Serenity and greeted her, "Hello. I'm sorry this idiot dragged you into trouble today. May I ask if your business here is done? If it is, why don't we all eat dinner together?""It's fine," Serenity politely refused, not wishing to be the third wheel, "I'm a little busy and have something else to do, so go ahead and just take Lisa to dinner.""Then let me drive you home," Terry offered."It's fine, I can just take the train at the station in front of the cinema. I don't want to get stuck in traffic."After speaking, she then quickly said goodbye to Lisa and left.Once she was gone, Terry folded his arms and stared at Lisa with a half-smile before saying, "It looks like you've got some explaining to do regarding what happened today.""Well," Lisa began fumblingly, "I've been working really hard today, so I thought I'd just go out and have some fun
