Last night, Ryan did call her a few times, but she was with Fredrick and didn’t hear it at all.

Priscilla did check the missed calls this morning, but she didn’t bother to call him back.

After all, considering their current relationship, it was no longer appropriate for her to show concern or scold him.

Thinking about it, she replied lazily. “Ryan, do you think you mean a lot to me? “

Ryan was stunned, “What”

“Why Should I have to answer your call?” Priscilla added.

Ryan was speechless for a second. After realizing what Priscilla meant, he burst into a rage.

“Priscilla, you are so ungrateful! I’m concerned about you! “ Ryan said.

“Oh? Does Regina know that you care so much about me?” Priscilla said with a sly grin on her face.

The ends of her eyes rose and she looked at him with a smirk.

Ryan’s face changed slightly as he was furious, but he was unable to utter a word. Just then a clear sweet voice came from the villa entrance.

“Ryan!” the voice called out.

As soon as Ryan turned arou

    Priscilla forced a smile.“The man was really good at lying. With such a strong concentration of alcohol smell in the car, how could he drink just a little?” She thought to herself.“He drank a lot!” She muttered to herself.However, she was not in a position to care for him and was too embarrassed, so she pursed her lips and stopped talking.David turned around and asked her with a smile, “ Miss Priscilla, where do you live?”Priscilla said her address for David to enter into the vehicle navigator before starting the car.There was a dead silence in the car. Priscilla crossed her fingers, her hands in her lap, and tilted her head towards the window.Perhaps because the aura of the man beside her was too powerful, Priscilla felt a bit restrained, and her entire spine was tensed up.Fredrick looked at her cautious expression and smiled secretly. “ Did you come to the Waals Residence?” he asked.Priscilla was stunned for a moment before she responded, “Yes.”“As far as I can remember yo

    During that time, Ryan was so busy that Julian helped him handle a few cases perfectly, which impressed him.When Jillian returned from abroad, she accepted to lead the Public Relations department of this company due to Ryan’s begging.Since then, the agency, called Famous Entertainment, has hardly come across any major problems.Even in today’s increasingly competitive industry environment, it made generous profits.In just two years, it had rapidly developed from a small company on the verge of bankruptcy to a large media company that had no rival other than Anderson International.Priscilla was not a genius and had never been in this field before.Besides her talent, she had worked hard day and night to make such achievements.She did all these just because it was Ryan’s company.Ryan, on the other hand, chose not to disclose their relationship.At that time, she didn’t think much about it, and just assumed that he didn’t want their relationship to interfere with their work, so she

    Priscilla looked at the watch in her hand with an expressionless face. After a while, she finally heard Ryan coughed.“Okay, time’s up, let’s start the meeting!” Ryan said.It was then everyone sat back in their seats.Ryan glanced at Priscilla, a hint of complexity flashing through his gaze. But in the end, his guilt and said in a deep voice.“Let me start today’s meeting with an introduction. This is Regina, I think everyone present should know her.” He said.The crowd echoed, “Of course! Regina is so famous in our country.” “I have always seen her on TV and never met her in real life. Well, she’s much prettier in person than on TV.” A voice from the crowd said.“No wonder she is the most popular star present!” Another voice chipped in.The crowd slithered, and Ryan nodded with satisfaction.“I called everyone here today to announce two matters. First, Regina will sign a contract with Famous Entertainment to become our important Artist from now on.” Ryan said.The crowd was stunne

    Everyone seemed to understand it, and only one person raised a question.“Since Terry will be the manager of the PR department, what position will Miss Priscilla hold? The person asked.The crowd liked Priscilla.Ryan glanced at her and after remaining silent for two seconds, he said in a deep voice, “ Priscilla will be demoted to an assistant manager. She should learn from Terry first. There will be plenty of opportunities for her to get promoted in the future.”The crowd was startled and speechless. It was not uncommon to make mistakes and be demoted.But Priscilla had made great contributions to the company, and it was really embarrassing for her to get demoted after what she had done for the company these years.Priscilla finally showed a hint of sneer.Under everyone’s gaze, she calmly stood up and propped her hands on the table to look at Ryan, who was sitting in the host seat.“Mr. Smith, you said I lack experience in understanding the depth of the industry as well as connectio

    Priscilla left the Famous Entertainment. When she left, there were a few co-workers who came to see her off, but most of them did this out of respect.After reaching the parking lot, she put her belongings in the trunk and drove directly toward the Smith Group.Harold was an honest man and had already prepared the transferring documents and Cheque.When Priscilla arrived at the Smith Group, Harold was in a meeting, and it was Ben who received her.There were three subsidiary companies under her name. Two of them were liquidated as she had requested last night, leaving only one.Priscilla readily signed the document and handed over her marriage arrangement paper to Ben.After all the formalities were handed over, the meeting Harold was in was not over yet. Ben asked her if she wanted to sit down and wait for a while to greet the chairman before leaving, but Priscilla politely declined his suggestion.She had already gotten what she wanted, and there was no need for her to meet anyone

    “Assistant.” Priscilla got stubborn and sneered when she raised her arms, “What if I insist on trying it on today?”The sales assistant frowned as her colleagues next to her heard the noise and came over. “What’s wrong she asked?”The sales assistant whispered a couple of words to her colleague and they both let out a forced smile. “Miss this dress is newly released and costs 100, 000 dollars. Are you sure you want to buy it?” she asked.Priscilla sneered, “You asked whether I would buy it before I tried it on. Your shop is really good at entertaining customers.”“I’m really sorry we are trying to protect the interest of other customers. After all, the clothes in our store are expensive high-end-fashion, if everyone tries them on without buying them, won’t the clothes become a second-hand bargain. Don’t you think so?” She asked.The sales assistant smiled but her eyes were full of sarcasm and mockery.Priscilla thought that today must be her doomed day. How could she come across such

    “Why was he here?” Priscilla questioned herself.Priscilla instantly tensed up and glanced behind David, but she didn’t see the man in her mind.Anabel did not know him and frowned unpleasantly, saying, “Who are you?”David answered and commanded directly the person behind him.“The Lincoln always has a rule. We won’t bully any customer even if it runs a large business. How dare you be arrogant as a shareholder and bully customers in the mall? If we let you do this for a long time, it will definitely ruin the fame of the Group.” David said.“Mr. Lawson, take down Miss Smith’s words today and fling them back to Mr. Smith. Ask them not to blame us for kicking them out despite the contract. From now on, let them not get involved in the business group.” He ordered.Mr. Lawson trembled and agreed hastily.Anabel’s face changed immediately, “Y-You are from the Lincoln Group?” she asked as realization dawned on her.David answered, “Miss Smith has finally figured out what’s going on.”“Even

    Although he didn’t know why Vines chose Priscilla, who had never starred in any works, instead of so many experienced actresses, to play the heroine, he knew what kind of person she was.It was easy for Priscilla to get such opportunities with the dirty deal, but she had never done it. This time, it was just an unknown web series, and naturally, it was impossible for her to do that.Priscilla sat there and said lazily, “I’m good. I eat and sleep well. What’s wrong? Are you worried about me?”“Of course, no matter what, you are my sister after all. Our blood relationship can’t be changed. Since such a thing happened to you, of course, I will care about you.”With a fake smile on her face, Priscilla looked at Regina and said, “Thank you very much, but don’t worry. I’ve already asked someone to investigate this matter. I believe the result will be revealed soon.”Regina raised her eyebrows.“That’s good. Since you’re innocent, I hope you can find out the truth as soon as possible and prov

    Vines was shocked!His pupils dilated and he asked angrily, “Who is it?”Priscilla looked at him and wore a mocking smile, “Regina.”Vines was surprised, “W-What?”Not only he, but anyone in their set must be surprised to hear this answer.It’s not that he didn’t think Regina could do this, but that this didn’t do her any good.As was known to all, because of the scandal, Regina’s career seemed to be on a downward trajectory. She seldom had the chance to appear in any dramas.To make a successful comeback, she spent a lot of effort and finally got the chance to play the lead in this drama. She would try her best not to let the audience down.Because of this, the drama was particularly important for her.If something bad happened to both the director and the leading roles, the shooting would certainly be affected. If it became serious, the drama might not even get the chance to go on air.Then she would be affected since she also starred in this drama.So, why had she done this?To make

    “Wait!”Priscilla frowned.A wave of nausea swept over her. She violently shook off his hand, took two steps back, and looked at him coldly.Ryan’s hand froze in mid-air.He was stunned. He found Priscilla didn’t look well. She took a silk handkerchief out from her bag wiped the wrist he had just held and then threw the handkerchief in the nearby trash bin.“Don’t touch me! Just say what you want to say!”Ryan felt his throat blocked and suddenly had a particularly uncomfortable feeling.He felt that his heart was covered by something. It was stuffy, but it didn’t hurt very much. He just couldn’t say anything.He pursed his lips. After several seconds, he said softly, “Okay, then I’ll come to the point.”Priscilla appeared very calm and wasn’t willing to give him a look.Although Ryan felt uncomfortable in his heart, he also knew that everything now was the fruit of his actions. He couldn’t say anything to defend himself.So, he said directly, “I went to Spark Land a few days ago.”Pr

    “Yes. We have seen you two lovey-dovey several times after we got here. Please take more care of us as we are still single.”“Are you just going to be so lovey-dovey every day? You fall in deep love with each other. When will you get married?”Regina smiled and looked at Ryan.Ryan looked at the person who asked the question and smiled faintly.“Soon. I’m going to formally propose marriage to her family and then get married after her part is finished.”Hearing his answer, these people became more surprised.Then they even directly gathered around them and asked about their marriage.Seeing this, Priscilla lowered her head. She curled her lips slightly and then went into the room.Not far away, Ryan had seen her. When he glanced at her and found she had gone back into her room, he felt his heart aching.Someone pulled him and said, “Mr. Smith, since you are getting married to Regina, and we and she are also friends who have shot a drama together, so don’t forget to invite us when you g

    Her fan base was too small to exert a large influence on the Internet, so no one noticed they had set up a fan club.Priscilla was quite happy to be recognized by them.She chatted with that Like-A-Fantasy for a while before she logged off. Then she put away her phone and headed to the set.When Priscilla arrived at the set, Regina saw her and immediately walked over.Regina looked sullen, so Portia subconsciously stood in front of Priscilla to protect her.Seeing that, Regina looked gloomier, but she stopped. “Where is Rosy? Where have you taken her?”Priscilla raised her eyebrows. There was a hint of mockery in her cold and indifferent eyes. “Isn’t Rosy your assistant? If your assistant is missing. Does it have anything to do with me?”Hearing that, Regina was fuming with anger.“Stop acting. If you hadn’t taken her away, I would have found her!”Priscilla sneered, “You said that I took Rosy away. Do you have any evidence?”Regina was at a loss.When Portia took Rosy away, they were

    In Priscilla’s view, it was simply inhuman!The best food was not from Michelin-starred restaurants but from a street food stall.Frederick wouldn’t agree with her. In his opinion, the snacks were junk food.How could his wife have such dirty food?Priscilla didn’t bother to argue with him and followed his advice. Now that she was on the set and Fredrick was not here, she could eat whatever she wanted.She felt wonderful after being full and felt Rosy pleasing to the eye.She ate too much. Instead of sitting down, she stood by the window with a glass of water, with one elbow on the railing idly.She looked at Rosy and asked, “Do you want to say it or not?”Rosy pursed her lips without a word.Priscilla’s gaze turned cold, “Do you think that I have no way if you don’t say it?”Rosy kept silent.Priscilla sneered, “Regina got something on you. Have you ever thought about it? If I call the police, I will be arrested and imprisoned for at least half a year. If you are in prison, what shou

    A few minutes later, Portia came back, utterly confused.“I don’t get it, why’d you let her go? She had that server drug you! Regina must be behind this! If she’d only speak, we’ve had proof to use against your evil sister!”Priscilla chuckled. She took a look at the time. It was getting late. Time to get back to shooting. As she walked out, she said, “She wouldn’t stay and testify for us if we kept her here, so what’s the point?”Puffing up, Portia glared at her, “But still you shouldn’t let go of her so easily. As long as you want, I can let her tell the truth by all means.” Priscilla turned her gaze at Portia worriedly.“Portia, calm down!”Priscilla knew that Portia was not just some ordinary bodyguard.She had never seen a bodyguard as agile and good at fighting as Portia before.Fredrick let Portia protect his wife to ensure she was safe and sound. It could be concluded that the lady bodyguard must have some strengths.Seeing Priscilla’s look, Portia was somewhat annoyed and sc

    “Didn’t Regina win the best actress? Why is she this crappy? I heard the character should be a strong and tough woman originally. Even though she’s now a deposed Empress, and she can’t show that strong side too much if she wants to live, that performance was way too weak!”“Yeah, I read about this character when they introduced her with the script. And her crying is way too fake! Not even a tear.”“Is that all a movie star is capable of these days? If that’s the case, I feel like I could be a movie star.”“Please! Movie star? More like a trash actress!”“What are you talking about? Regina got her award with ability. You just sound like you’re jealous!”“Ability? Give me a break! I’m not buying any of it.”“Yes, everyone knows what happened when they were electing for the awards. She’d been about a hundred thousand votes away from first place in the last thirty seconds, but then she got all hundred thousand votes within those thirty seconds. Heh, they said the votes were calculated by

    “Cut!”Vines’ voice rang out again.He tamped down on his annoyance and said to Regina, “The emotions were wrong there. Remember, you might be the former Empress, but you still need to have some backbone when facing your hated rival who deposed you! That was too weak, you looked like a handmaiden. I need more strength on your temperament, got it?”Regina’s face grew sour.But she still nodded.“Take three!”“You’re lower than a Dog in the gutter at this point. What makes you think I’d show any interest in such a pitiful creature?”“If you’re not interested, then why show up here today?!” Regina yelled.“Cut!”Annoyed, Vines stood up from behind the camera, pointed at Regina and said, “What are you thinking going so hard up against the new Empress? You’ve been deposed and you’re defenceless. She can strangle you to death at a thought; are you trying to get yourself killed speaking to her like this?”Regina’s expression sank completely.She couldn’t hold it back and retorted, “You told
