"So… So what happened this time is also true? Elias not only helped me get the chance to return to the crew last time, but he also helped me expose Britney's plot this time? He was the one who helped me stay in the entertainment industry?""Bingo! That's right."Mimi felt like there was a crash in her heart like something just flew over her heart, and a strange feeling surged in her chest.Jeanette had told her that Elias was the person who helped her solve the chaos Britney had caused, but s
Mimi was a little embarrassed. "Actually, I did worse. No matter what happened, I shouldn’t talk to you like that in front of the crew.""It's all over now, Mimi. You’re a pure and kind person. Although you’re a little reckless sometimes, and you always do some crazy things that might shock the world, you have such passion for acting, and I like it."An actress like you was born to be in the entertainment industry. When you feel better, you can return to join the crew. I’ll keep the role for y
Mimi was slightly taken aback. She felt as if someone had violently slammed on her heart. Her chest surged with hope again. Zeke’s words sounded so familiar. Elias had said something similar before.She still remembered every word he had said to her during the day. He had said he didn’t know how he felt about her, except that his heart ached for her. He would feel anxious whenever she was hurt, angry whenever someone pushed her around. The pain she felt during her time at the hospital made him ache excruciatingly.His words fit Zeke’s description of a man falling in love with a woman. Did that mean, that Elias…Mimi quickly shook her head and forced herself to wake up. She couldn’t afford to indulge in these flights of fancy anymore. It was all just a part of her wishful thinking.Mimi laughed bitterly. It felt ironic to her.Elias had let her down countless times and caused her to wake up in tears from countless nightmares. She lived in constant disappointment and sorrow every
“You may need talent in the entertainment industry, but having the right attitude and hard work is more important. She’s definitely a talented actress but became overly pragmatic. All of her work became commercialized, and she demanded extreme remuneration, yet her acting was uneven, and she wasn’t serious at all. Raymond bought those Best Actress Awards for her. I’d rather have countless small actors with passion than an actress like her in the entertainment industry. It’s a tragedy in the ente
Mimi couldn’t help feeling a sense of admiration toward Zeke. This man had integrity, a rare sight in the entertainment world.He had gone through everything alone and had achieved his current place without relying on connections. It was very difficult. To emerge untainted in this proverbial vat of filth meant that he had the right kind of values.“Mr. Russo…” Mimi suddenly spoke up. Her eyes filled with sincerity.“What is it?” Mimi rarely spoke to him with such a serious look on her face. H
Elias instinctively denied any discussion on his feelings for Mimi. For some reason, he felt that this was absurd. It was impossible.Zeke smiled and said, “I never mentioned who this woman was. Why are you so eager to deny it? Have I actually gotten it right?”Elias smirked. “Cut the cr*p. You’ve never been so gossipy before.”Zeke shrugged. “I’m not a gossip. Your problems are written all over your face. You’ve been in a terrible mood since this morning. It’s like you’ve lost your soul. Why would you be so disappointed if you didn’t care about her?”Elias blinked. “I… I just don’t want to lose a good friend,” he explained weakly.“Stop hiding it, Elias. I really don’t get it. You’re a playboy. Are you still incapable of making sense of your own feelings? Look at how much concern you have for Mimi, and you still haven’t realized your own feelings for her?”Zeke could see right through Elias’ thoughts, yet this man was still playing the fool, unable to understand himself.“I tol
Zeke had deeply angered Elias. At night, he even called Zeke and scolded him for cracking such an unnecessary joke.However, Elias never thought that Zeke was actually being serious about pursuing Mimi, very serious.He was a busy man, but he actually came to visit Mimi at her ward the next day and bought a bouquet of flowers too.The worst part of all? He actually came to his office to show off. When Elias saw Zeke carrying a bouquet of flowers into his office, he hadn’t fully realized that those flowers were meant for Mimi. He even teased him, asking why a big man like him was carrying such a huge bouquet of flowers around.Zeke chuckled mysteriously. “Capturing a girl’s heart requires flowers, of course.”Elias was stunned. He was taken aback.“Capturing whose heart?”Zeke shrugged. “Didn’t I tell you yesterday? I’m going to pursue Mimi. I even did some research on romance strategies when I went home. Everyone says that women find roses irresistible, so I’m sure Mimi will lik
Mimi was stupefied. Her mind went blank. All she could do was hold the roses dazedly and stare at Zeke, unable to say a word.She couldn’t believe that Zeke was really trying to court her. They were kind of incompatible. She had never considered dating him at all.“M-Mr. Russo… I… I don’t think we’re compatible enough. I don’t know why you want to date me… I…” Zeke laughed, cutting her panicked words off.“Don’t worry. You know Elias likes you too, don’t you?”Mimi was taken aback. She shook her head and waved her hands. She immediately looked very disappointed and felt a soreness surge from within her chest.“Stop fooling around, Mr. Russo. Elias likes me? That’s not possible. He’s always been in love with Jeanette. You’re his friend, and you should know that. He’s always been in love with Jeanette. It’s been so many years, and that hasn’t changed.”Zeke smiled gently. “Mimi, I thought that Elias was the only idiot at first, but you’re just the same. It’s bad enough that he ha
