Morning had arrived. Sunlight streamed into the hospital ward through the window, illuminating the entire room. The room was permeated with a warm, seductive air.Humans’ eyelids were sensitive to light, even when fast asleep. The sunlight had woken Jeanette up. When she opened her eyes, Damon was still quietly asleep in bed.She stretched out her back, looked at Damon, who was fast asleep in the bed next to her and curved her lips into a gentle smile.Seeing his face, first thing every morning, was a very simple kind of pleasure. It’s no wonder people always said that company was the best display of devotion.Watching over each other like this, in the most peaceful way, was the best display of love. The thought of being able to gaze at him, fast asleep like this, every morning for the rest of her life, made her feel that she had more than enough, come what may.She stared at Damon, unable to tear her gaze away. For some reason, Jeanette felt that he looked very cute in his sleep.
Jeanette lowered her head. Before she could regain her senses, she heard a familiar voice.“Hello, sis! Good morning!”Jeanette lifted her head and saw Xavier, grinning at her from the side of the road, not too far away. He flashed a row of white teeth as he grinned at her. He seemed to be very relaxed and even waved at her when she lifted her head to look at him.Jeanette’s frown deepened. Her heart was awash with a wave of anger. She was suddenly reminded of yesterday’s sexual harassment and was even more incensed. She took a deep breath and tried her best to contain her raging anger. Then, she turned around and walked away as if she did not see Xavier at all.Xavier had already expected her distant reaction. He wasn’t angry. He shrugged and ran after her.Jeanette moved very quickly, but she was still a woman walking on the road in heels, which served as an inconvenience. Xavier caught up to her in no time. He kept grinning leisurely. The look on his face gave Jeanette the urge
“I drank last night too. Forget it, I’ll call an Uber, then drop you off at the studio. Look at you, you look so messed up…” Elias smirked, slightly amused at his misfortune.Zeke rolled his eyes and stared at him exasperatedly.After dropping Zeke off at the studio, Zeke’s headache felt much better, probably because the hangover pill had come into effect. He got down from the car and asked Elias, “Would you like to hang around the set? There will be some scenes with Mimi.”Elias shrugged. “I need to get to work too, you know. I’m not going today. We’ll discuss this some other time.” Actually, he wasn’t in a rush to get to work, but he didn’t want Mimi to find out about his relationship with Zeke. He didn’t want her to think that she had only managed to keep her job with the crew because of him.Elias left. The car drove away from the film set and happened to pass Mimi’s assistant’s car.Mimi had her head buried in her script. She did not notice the car passing her by. It was her
Jeanette could not figure out for the life of her why the reporters were so relentless in wanting the Godfrey Group to be buried down under. ‘Are they really intending to drive them to complete nothingness? Someone’s obviously planned this entire incident since the beginning to try and bring down both Damon and the Godfrey Group. Yet, these reporters are doing all sorts of nonsense without even understanding what’s going on.’At that moment, Jeanette had a very strong urge to get out of the c
“Damon…” Jeanette felt aggrieved in her heart. Although she had tried hard to endure from allowing her weakness to show, a tinge of tremor could still be heard in her voice. Damon’s heart instantly tightened. In fact, he even had the urge to leave everything behind to rush over to her side and give her a tight hug. Alas, there was absolutely nothing he could do at that point. “Jeanette, my secretary has called to tell me everything about the reporters,” Damon said. “Are you alright? Did they
Jeanette could not explain why, but Damon’s voice was so gentle that it had a miraculous effect of being able to inject a whole dose of warmth in her and coursing through her chest. She took a deep, deep breath and said, “Okay. Don’t worry, Damon. I’ll make sure I help you hold the fort here at the company before you’ve fully recovered. So, go ahead and focus on your recovery. I’ll be here forever.”Damon curled his lips and felt a gentleness in his heart. “I love you, Jeanette…”His voice
Actually, Zeke was able to look past Mimi’s flaws, even being late or refusing to show up to work. However, he absolutely could not tolerate his cast not performing at their best during filming. This was the most serious offense to him because it was a form of disrespect to filming. Mimi was panicking a little and was filled with embarrassment as she subconsciously thought to herself that she did not want to cause a delay in the filming process because of her. “Mr. Russo… Please give me anothe
Britney raised her chin as she gloated by saying, “Of course! Mimi, don’t you go thinking that you’re the only one who’s received an invite from Mr. Russo to be in one of his projects. Oh, hang on… Based on what I heard, you aren’t here because you received an invitation from him, but because your manager begged him desperately for it before you were able to receive this opportunity, is that right?” As Britney spoke, she let off a scornful snicker, which was even more obvious through her express
