Cathy’s POV:I sat down where Mom was sitting. When I saw the camera, my expression changed. “Ailina, why did you buy such an expensive camera?”Mom and Dad didn’t know the price of this camera, but I did. When I was shopping in the mall, I saw it and and the price was ridiculously high.“How can I possibly give you a cheap birthday present?” Ailina smiled and said, “Here, give it a try.”I picked up the camera from the box, wanting to put it away. “I can’t take this. Take it back and return it tomorrow.”Ailina pulled my arm. “No! This is a gift I bought for you. If you don’t like it, give it to Aunty. Then you can tell me what you like and I will buy it for you.”Hearing that my eyes turned red. “Alina, I know you want to be generous to us, but there is no need to buy such expensive thing. We will feel burdened.”“What burden?” She didn’t seem to understand.‘How could a person living in a paradise know the hardship of a person living in a hell?’ I thought.I answered with a bitter
Ailina’s POV:During the meal, Tony and Flora kept picking food for me. I smiled and said, “Aunty, Uncle, I’m not having a birthday today, but someone else is.”I picked the piece of rib and placed it into Cathy’s bowl.She smirked and said, “I’m going to get jealous of you. It turns out that my parents love you more than me!”Flora stretched out her hand and poked Cathy’s forehead. “Why are you jealous? You can eat at home everyday, but Alina rarely comes to eat with us.”Although she said this, she still picked up a roasted pork for Cathy.After dinner, I helped Flora tie up the kitchen before leaving.When I went downstairs, I saw a sports car parked in front of Cathy’s house. I took a look at the license plate and noticed that it was Bruce’s car.I could never forget the look of his car.I walked to the front of the car and knocked on the window. Bruce rolled down the window, smiled, and asked, “Ailina, why are you here?”“Why you didn’t leave and why not go upstairs?” I didn’t an
Selena’s POV:As we were waiting for going for the audition, a few people started to complain.“What’s going on? Our agent decides to take time off, so who is going to take us there?”“That’s right. We must not be late for the audition of the Lowering the Bid today. This is Director Lewis project. I heard that anyone who showed up in his movie ended up being a big star. Besides, all the characters are essential to his project.”“That’s all owing to a good scriptwriter. Director Lewis only adopts the scripts written by Phoenix, who happens to be the scriptwriter I admired the most.“I heard that every edition of Phoenix book was sold out quickly, but she seldom leaves her signature. I really want a book with her autograph.”“I want it too.”As everyone was discussing the audition and the screenwriter, I did not speak or move.I stood there quietly and my hands were covered in a sweat.She was once a popular actress. I made a blockbuster called “Summer Day,” and it sold for 2.5 billion
Selena’s POV:With the movement, I heard Ailina’s voice, and my entire body began to shiver. This was indeed Miss Wilson’s voice. I couldn’t remember it wrong.I slowly raised my head and saw Ailina’s calm and gorgeous face.She seemed to be more mature and more feminine compared to the girl two years ago, but she was so more indifferent now.“Miss Wilson!” I muttered. My voice is tumbling.After two years, I finally met Miss Wilson again.Two years ago, Miss Wilson helped me to reach the peak of my life, but in these two years, when she was away, I almost ruined everything that she had given me.His gaze fell on my face, and she frowned slightly. “Didn’t you know what day it is today? How could you hurt your face?”I lowered my head and apologized, “I’m sorry.”She looked at the wound on my face.Then, she walked over and looked at me asking, “Sorry, for what?”She was stunned and a little confused. To be honest, I felt that I wasn’t wrong, but Miss Wilson seemed to be angry. So, I h
Selena' POV:Ailina shook her head and looked at the RV parked not far from her.The door opened. The first get out of for two security guards, followed by girl wearing a glasses and a woman in a professional dress with her hair tied up. Finally surrounded by these people, a woman wearing a long, white dress slowly walked down.The rookie from JK Entertainment exclaimed. “Wow, this is Anya Blake, the director’s exclusive actress.”“So beautiful!”“So imposing. Look at how many people are serving her when she goes out. Assistant, agent, and so many bodyguards.”A few girls looked at her with envious eyes.“When can we be like her? A-first-rate star?”“This time, if we get the role in Lewis’ movie, we will be closer to her status.”They continued to move forward, wanting to see Anya, but the security guards blocked them with their hands.When Anya entered the building, Ailina put away her phone and said, “Let’s go. Let’s go in.”“I really didn’t expect she would also come today. We are
Selena’s POV:I wanted to say that the female lead I played in “Summer Day” was also an innocent cute little girl, but halfway through I swallowed back my words.Ailina ruminated for a while and said, “The hardest part of this character is that the span of the acting. If you want to make yourself different from others, you must show your good understanding of the three extremes of this role. Therefore, I suggest that you will play the innocent part in 30 seconds, then switch to her mental broke down and evil part in 30 seconds, and play the emotional changes from despair to calm in the last 30 seconds.”“But…” I am a little hesitant. “Changing moods of three kinds in only one or two minutes is too challenging. I’m afraid, I can’t.”“One can change her mood in just a few seconds, let alone half a minute. If you can’t do it,” She said coldly, “Why sticking to being an actress?”I lowered my head and became silent.Alina continued, “As an actress, you should know that acting is not real.
Ailina’s POV:I also looked at her but didn’t take it seriously.I practiced with Selena again for the audition.Inside the room, the audition had already begun. People started to enter one by one, according to the number they had drawn before.The first one to enter was the actress of Imperial Entertainment. She was already quite famous, but she came out in only two minutes. It seemed that her audition had not been smooth.I checked the orders of the actress in JK Entertainment and found that it was still long before their audition, so I said, “There is still time. You should think about how you should act later!”Selena nodded and she carefully revised what it felt like when she was practicing with me.However, others didn’t take my words seriously. “Isn’t just audition for the supporting actress and the third leading actress. Why so serious?”“I think I can do it.”“That’s not necessarily the case. Maybe I am more suitable for supporting actress.”Before they could go into addition
Lewis’ POV:As soon as Ailina walked in, she saw Selena standing on the stage cowardly and frightened. She frowned and walked over to her, “Relax.”Seeing that Ailina had come, she immediately looked relieved. She smiled, “Miss Wilson.”The staff who called Ailina in just now had already told her why she was allowed in. Ailina didn’t waste any time and directly started to act with Selena.With Ailina, Selena quickly got into the groove. She did well. Although her skill of modulating emotion was not as good as Ailina's, she was much better than another actress. Moreover, every expression on my face was perfect.I decided to the spot that Helen should be acted by Selena.Everyone looked at me in shock. I know what they are thinking.There are still dozens of people behind her, what if there were any better ones? However, I didn’t care and made my decision on the spot.When Selena and Ailina were about to leave, I said to my assistant, “Ask that manager to come over?”Ailina came over an
Ailina’s POV:My phone suddenly rang. It was Sleeve.“Ailina, are you feeling better? Where are you?”I said, “Much better.”“That’s good!. When will you come back?” He asked.“Anything wrong?”“Your grandfather’s health is getting worse. He is very angry that you have suffered such a great grievance. He intends to expel Susan from Wilson, but your father does not agree. Your grandfather wants to use extraordinary measures. I am worried they will attack him again…”I pursed my lips and said, “Wilson, it was Tracy who drugged me this time.”“Ailina, don’t misunderstand. Tracy has left. She should be bought by Susan. It was not Mr. Wilson’s order. He was also drugged….” Steven anxiously explained.I gently made a fist. Did I misunderstand Grandpa?But in my previous life, Grandpa had indeed
Ailina’s POV:I was surprised by the fact that Ricky always took my word seriously.“I am just joking with you!” I said helplessly.“I am not joking.”“I don’t want it. I will buy whatever I want.”“It’s not necessary for a girl to act innocent to her boyfriend.” He said seriously.I replied, “Other girls want plush toys. I am greedy that I want a house.”“It doesn’t matter. I don’t mind.” He messed up my neat hair.“I mind. I don’t want to live off you.” I curled my lips.“Then why don’t I give my property to you and I will live off you in the future!” He asked with a smile.I glared at him, “I am a bit hungry.”Rican’s POV:I didn’t continue with this topic and asked Peace to bring up the meal.I pulled a chair for Ailina. After she
Hallie’s POV:After Mrs. Murray left, I cried, “Daddy, Mommy, Darren’s legs are broken. He is the person with only one leg. Why do you want me to marry him? I won’t marry. I won’t.” Then I began to cry.“You don’t have the right to criticize that Darren is a person with only one leg. Don’t you know why he had one leg missing? You are just making up for what you have done to him.” Dad said coldly.Dad had always been gentle with me. It was the first time he spoke so harshly. I felt wronged. I bit my lower lip and said, “You have promised that it was Ailina who was to marry him. Why do I have to be with the bride now? What’s more, the Murray family has taken fancy to Ailina, not me. I have been rejected by the Murray family before…”Hardly I had finished my words when Dad slapped me. He said angrily, “You want your sister to marry him. How dare you? Why should Ailina
George’s POV:After Dad left, Susan and Hallie walked to my side and said softly. “It’s been so many years, but Mr. Wilson still can’t accept me.”When I heard her words, I turned around and glared at her. “You still blame Dad for not accepting you. Look what you have done?”Susan lowered her head and said, “You have slapped and rebuke me. Why would I do this? Isn’t it for the sake of Wilson? Are you willing to see Hallie go to jail?”I glared at her. “For the sake of the Wilson? In front of so many people, everyone knows that I am going to sell my daughter and drugged her. My daughter would rather die than be sold. This matter will be probably make people discuss for several years.”“I don’t know Ailina was so strong…”“Who told you to drug her? Who to hold you to use such a despicable method? She is my daughter. How can you do this to her
Rican’s POV:As Ailina watched the play, she ate a fruit. Unknowingly, a plate of fruit was eaten by her. She sat on the bed with an empty plate and stared at the iPad.I saw her eating up the fruit. So, I naturally reached out and took the fruit plate away. I turned around and placed it on the table beside her. I poured her another glass of water and handed it to her. “Have a drink.”The project director who was reporting hurriedly picked up the cup and took a sip.Ailina took the cup and said, “Don’t worry about me.”I chuckled and continued the meeting.My video conference was not long either. After the Green River Bay Project director finished reporting, I gave some specific suggestions and arranged other actors for other departments.Then I turned off the video conference.I asked Ailina, “What do you want to eat later?”She shook her head. “I am not hungry. I at
Author’s POV:After saying that, Rican turned around and left.He must hurry back to the hospital and watch over his girl.When he returned to the hospital, it was already eleven thirty in the evening. The nurse was guarding Ailina’s bed, taking care of her constantly.Rican asked the nurse to rest and began to guard Ailina.The nurse was a bit embarrassed. She was a senior nurse who was paid a lot of salary and could not sleep at night. However, Rican was the one who paid her salary, so she thanked him repeatedly before leaving.****After asking those people to let Eric go, Jayden went home.Before those people released Eric, they even beat him up and warned him that if he dared to salivate Ailina, they would kill him. Eric was very scared, so he quickly ran away.Those people took out a small notebook and seriously wrote “Ailina on” it.They must protect this girl from now on. After all,
Eric’s POV:The Sky Tower Building was the tallest in city A, which towered into the clouds as its name suggested.And now my feet were tied to an elastic rope.The other end of the roof was tied to a flagpole.I stood there trembling and roared, “Who are you? Do you know who I am? Hurry up and let me go, or you will pay for it…”Dong!I was pushed down from the roof before finishing my words.I was too frightened to my head my image, and screamed, “Ah! Dear lord, help me. Help me…”However, nobody cared about me no matter how loudly I screamed.I tumbled down from the roof, and was bounced halfway back, and then fell again.I was nearly insane. The wind whistled by my ears and I felt that next moment I was going to die. I was unable to catch my breath and fainted.Jayden’s POV:The third Master had called me last night and asked me to bring Eric to T
Rican’s POV:When Ailina woke up, she felt a sharp pain in her shoulder. She was too weak to sit upI supported her. “Let me help you.”She blinked up for a long time and finally remembered what had happened before. “Why are we at the hospital? There is no need to send me to the hospital for this minor injury.”Seeing that Ailina didn’t care about her injury at all, I couldn’t do anything with her but asked, “Did you stab yourself?”When Trevor said that the cut avoided arteries, I figured out that Ailina herself did it.“Yes.” She nodded. “Did I do it perfectly? It looks serious, but isn’t fatal. It will scare them. Besides…”Seeing her thoughts wondering, I scratched her nose with my finger. “Don’t ever do it again.”“I did it on purpose. I have something important to do. The injury is essential.” Ailina sa
Jayden’s POV:Later, Third Master’s second eldest uncle, Edward Alfonzo, revolted. However, Wayyt had planned a car accident in response to Edward’s revolution. That accident took Edward and his family’s life.At that time, the Third Master’s expression was dark. Later Third Master took charge and tried his best to clean up the mess. He sent his uncle Wayyt to prison and recognized Alfonzo. For that, he became the head of the Alfonzo nowadays. He was also the most convincing head of Alfonzo in Alfonzo’s history, and of course, the most frightening one.I was a little nervous. If the Third Master is like this, he must be planning something big.I was a little excited and, at the same time, a little flustered.When we arrived at the hospital, the Third Master carried Ailina inside the hospital himself.He was anxious, but he did the thing in an orderly manner.“Call Trevor Primo.” He order
