John flinched and hurriedly zipped his fingers across his mouth and sat quietly.Fredrick let out a snort.After a while, John could no longer hold back his curiosity and said to the two in front of him, “ Bro, when did you get married? How come I did not know this at all?”Fredrick didn’t even bother to look at him but said, “You won’t think I have to report to you first when I get married, will you?”John gave an awkward smile, “But you see, our grandfather might…”Fredrick eyes darkened and John immediately said nothing more.Naturally, Priscilla won’t comment on such a thing either.After all, the situation between her and Fredrick had been quite special. She was not ready to meet the other members of the Lincoln’s family yet. However, there was no way she could tell this to John.So she could only keep silent.Seeing that they were all being quiet, John sure had doubts in his head but he knew better than to ask more questions.Soon, the dishes were served and after they finished
John felt nervous and asked while staring at her.“So, what do you think?”Priscilla looked up at him and smiled, “what do you think?”John lowered his face in frustration.He thought he was screwed up this time.He just could not see how he could possibly solve the problem.Watching his gloomy face, Priscila laughed, “The whole thing became difficult just because the woman haven’t showed up and whatever we do, there won’t be a response and therefore it won’t work. For now, you would have to find this woman and the rest of the problem will simply take care of itself.”John knitted his brows. “Of course I know that. But damn it! She just disappeared, where should I find her?”Fredrick cast a cold glance at him, “Watch your words!” Only then did he remember, that the woman in front of him is not just his PR expert but also the wife of his own cousin.He hurriedly put on a smiling face, “sorry, I was just being anxious. I did not watch my mouth. Sorry.”Priscilla didn’t my mind but smi
He was wearing his white shirt as usual and in his arms was his suit. The tall and slender figure of him looked elegant and graceful as ever.Wilma, hearing the sound, also walked out from the kitchen, “Welcome home, Mr. Lincoln.”Fredrick nodded slightly and brought his eyes to Priscilla with a hint of warmth and pleasure in his eyes.He wrapped his arm around her waist and led her into the villa. “You always come out to wait for me. One will think you have fallen in love with me.”The voice of the man was so low yet powerful and only Priscilla could hear him.While she tried not to react, her delicate face flushed and she pushed him away with her hands. “Don’t you flatter yourself, you self-righteous man. I am here for a walk. It’s just a coincidence.”“Yesterday it was the sunset, today you are here for a walk. What a fate we have here, Mrs Lincoln?”Priscilla could not say a word.She knew she would never win him and she gave up debating with him altogether. Instead, she just walk
In the bedroom there were a whole set of new toiletries and all of them were from her favourite brands and flavours. For sure, Frederick had asked someone to prepare all these for her. After the shower, when she had dried herself and was reaching out for her nightgown to get dressed, she slipped almost falling and she had to stabilize herself holding onto the wall that was when she found out that her nightgown had fallen on the floor getting wet.She picked up the soaked nightgown and was somewhat frustrated.“can I even be any unluckier?” she asked herself.Well, she could not use the nightgown tonight, and that’s for sure.However, she had brought only this nightgown in with her and she definitely could not wrap herself in a towel and go out. What if Frederick was in the room? The thought alone gave her chills on her skin.She felt more frustrated suddenly and at this moment, she heard light footsteps from outside.Eventually ,she thought it was Wilma and she yelled softly, “please
In the afternoon, Priscilla went to Big Hit Entertainment. The company has been transferred to her few days back. She was very busy then, and could hardly spare any time to visit the company in person.Before she came, she had called the person in charge by phone and informed them about her schedule today.When she arrived at the company, it was 2pm. Sharp.The person who received her was a deputy manager surnamed Morrie.Entertainment companies were different from other companies, because artists compared to companies in other industries, there were not many employees working in the office on a daily basis.This was especially true for Big Hit Entertainment, a company on the verge of bankruptcy. No one was willing to sit there and wait for death, not to mention that, they were acquired by another company and the boss had changed as well. This was something every employee knew.How the boss intended to handle the company remained a mystery. Anyone who had a plan or had some connection
Priscilla had a very positive impression of Gwyneth. Although there were many newcomers nowadays, most of them were trapped by the lure of fame and fortune. Most of them were impetuous and only a few were able to work hard on improving their acting skills. Gwyneth came from a poor family and had a rough childhood but thanks to her miserable childhood experiences, she had seen the world early in her life and had a deeper understanding of many things than her peers. It was precisely because of this that she understood that acting was the basis of a performer’s life and the rest was just momentary glamour.Seeing her in Big Hit Entertainment was like finding a piece of beautiful jade in a pile of rubbish. Priscilla was very pleased, and coincidentally, the agent who brought them back, immediately called Gwyneth into the office.Gwyneth was also surprised to see Priscilla. Although there were not many interactions between them, everyone in the company knew Priscilla was the PR Ace in Famo
Fredrick was as calm as ever. After Priscilla entered the car, he told David to drive the car to the restaurant he booked earlier.Priscilla was a little surprised about the address. “Don’t you want to go home for dinner?”Fredrick flipped through a financial magazine and said in a low voice, “Darling, do you know what time it is?”Priscilla was stunned and only then did she recall that it was already past eight.When she first arrived at the mansion, Wilma, the maid had already told her the rules of the family. No dinner will be served after 8pm and that was the rule set by old Mr. Lincoln when he told her to take care of Fredrick.This was to prevent his grandson from working overtime. Beside Fredrick, everyone in the Lincoln Mansion has to follow that rule.Priscilla smiled awkwardly, “Sorry, I was too focused on my work, I lost track of time. Uhm.... to make it up to you, dinner will be on me today.”Fredrick finally raised up his head. His dark eyes looked at her with a shade of
There was a toilet in the Private room but she was too embarrassed to use it due to poor soundproofing. The general restroom was located at the end of the corridor, next to the elevator. After leaving the private room, Priscilla headed to the female restroom with the help of the waiter who showed them the private room.When she came out of the restroom, she noticed some familiar figures walking in her direction. Stunned for some reason, she took a step backward ghostly. It just happened that she hid behind a dragon-patterned post at the entrance of the restroom. Ryan Smith and Regina Waals were the ones coming toward her and they were accompanied by a middle-aged man with black-rimmed glasses. Priscilla recognized the man’s face immediately. He was the country’s A-list producer, Paul Romans. The three of them were walking happily. Paul laughed and said, “Mr. Smith, I heard you are engaged to a beautiful woman but I never knew who she was, now I finally know it is Miss Waals. Ry
Priscilla didn’t say anything, she just held the hot milk and smiled.Fredrick said a few words. Looking at her smile, he didn’t complain but also smiled, “Tell me! Have you already planned it for a long time?”She nodded.His appearance today was an accident, but his proposal was similar to her original plan. She also wanted to compete with Regina again.But with Frederick’s help this time, the competition would be easier and fairer.Fredrick seemed to have thought of this as well. He smiled and said, “It seems that I shouldn’t have come here.”Priscilla hurriedly shook her head, “No, it’s good that you are here.” She didn’t speak more. Although she had already made a plan, she was not confident enough.No one knew whether the competition would be fair five years later without a fair judge.So it was good that he was here.It felt like suddenly having someone behind her and she felt more confident!Nancy walked out of the hotel and said with a smile, “Oh, I see something I shouldn’t
Ryan’s face darkened.Regina grabbed his arm and said in a trembling voice, “I didn’t...”Nancy sneered, “Good acting!”Regina was speechless.As the crowd around became more and more suspicious, she couldn’t stand it anymore.She looked at Priscilla sadly and said in a trembling voice, “I didn’t expect you to say that even now! Well, if you insist that I had set you up, I have nothing to refute. But you can’t prove what you said just by these empty words!” Regina’s admirers around couldn’t bear to see her so sad and fragile.Some of them shouted, “Yes, you didn’t explain it five years ago. Now that it has been so long after that, how can you prove you were innocent?”Nancy was stunned. She had been following Priscilla’s plan all this time, but she didn’t expect this to happen. Seeing this, she glanced at her.With a cold smile on her lips, Priscilla was about to speak.“Who said it can’t be proved?”A cold and calm voice suddenly came from outside.The voice seemed to be wrapped in t
Lyla wanted to respond but was stopped by the headmaster.He frowned, glanced around the crowd, and finally fixed his eyes on Nancy, “Miss Swift, please tell me about what’s going on.”Nancy told him everything in detail.With so many people present, she said it objectively and fairly. She didn’t exaggerate or lie.The headmaster frowned after he heard all of those, “So, Regina, is it correct that, you think, Priscilla stole the original draft of your design five years ago and tonight she wanted to shake her crime and then frame you again, so you sent Lyla here to steal the draft back. Am I right?”Regina was stunned.After a while, she took a deep breath.She knew that it was useless to argue at this time.She could only say, “I admit that I did unintentionally mention it to her before. My sister took away my original draft and might use it to frame me, but I didn’t ask her to steal it back for me. I didn’t expect her to do that tonight. If I had known it earlier, I wouldn’t have agr
Lyla suddenly understood everything. It turns out that Regina did it on purpose. She said those words on purpose to provoke her to steal the file.And she was free from the case afterward. Then the case now had nothing to do with her.Even if the truth was revealed, Lyla would be the only one to be punished.Lyla looked at Regina in disbelief, as if it was the first time that she had known her, “Regina, You got your clothes dirty. It was me who brought you new clothes. You told me in the room that you would hold Priscilla back and not let her go back to her room and asked me to steal the manuscript for you. You must admit it!”Regina frowned.This idiot!Why was this idiot still holding on to this?Didn’t this idiot understand that only when she was innocent and stayed outside could she help her out of the jail?But now Lyla just wanted to drag her into the mire. How could there be such a stupid person?Regina was furious, but she had no idea how she could stop her. She gritted her te
The onlookers’ discussion had thrown Lyla completely out of her wit and Priscilla also looked unwilling to let her go, so suddenly Lyla shouted, “That’s enough! What kind of business secret? It was just a simple design draft.”“Priscilla, you stole Regina’s design five years ago and told everyone it was your own so that she has missed the opportunity to be admitted to the Royal University of Fine Arts. Now, you still want to use the original draft of five years ago to frame her again! Do you think it is yours? You are so vicious. Aren’t you afraid of being punished by God?”Hearing this, everyone was stunned. What? The design draft in her hand was the one that caused Priscilla to be involved in the scandal of five years ago.What did she mean by that?Someone had realized what Lyla meant. They turned to look at Priscilla with strange looks.Priscilla framed Regina with the original draft five years ago and claimed that the design was hers, which meant...Nancy’s face also changed as s
As expected, Ryan frowned.Priscilla raised her eyebrows.She raised her wrist and looked at her watch to check the time.It was already half past ten at night.Although it was not very late, it was definitely not early.She curled her lips and said, “No, but it seemed like you are having great fun here, you can stay here. Enjoy yourself!”Then she walked towards the elevator without looking back.Regina’s face darkened.She wanted to stop Priscilla again, but she seemed to have made up her mind and ignored her voice.Regina was pissed off.‘Damn it! Why hasn’t Lyla come down yet?’Ryan frowned beside her, “Regina, don’t force her if she just wants to leave. Let her go. There are still people waiting for us over there.”Regina looked panicked.Seeing the elevator door was about to close, she gritted her teeth and suddenly rushed forward.“Priscilla!” Ryan’s face changed dramatically. Even Priscilla, who had already entered the elevator, couldn’t help frowning slightly.After a flash,
As expected, Ryan frowned.Regina secretly breathed a sigh of relief.Anyway, he still cared about her.Since now he had known that she was wronged, he would certainly help her take revenge!However, to her surprise, Ryan only said in a low voice, “You’d better stay away from her in the future.”Regina was stunned and widened her eyes in disbelief.She looked at Ryan in disbelief as if she had heard something completely impossible. “What… What did you say?”Ryan said impatiently, “Every time you two meet, you will quarrel with each other like enemies of life. It seems that she is unreasonable, but actually, it’s always you who took the initiative to provoke the fighting. Regina, it’s already a mistake for us two to be together, so definitely she hates you for that. Why do you still take the initiative to provoke her and get yourself annoyed?”Regina was stupefied.She looked at the man in front of her and couldn’t believe what he had said just now.Tears welled up in her eyes.” Ryan,
Lyla’s voice came through the door.“Regina, are you still inside? I brought you a gown.”Regina resumed her expression before turning around to open the door.“Thank you. Where is Lindsay?”“You’re welcome. She told me what happened so I told her I’ll be the one to assist you.” Lyla noticed her abnormal look and asked with concern, “Are you alright?”Regina forced a smile and shook her head.Although she was shaking her head, everything on her face indicated that there was something on her mind, making her sad.How could Lyla not see the hint? She said in a worried tone, “Regina, did Priscilla that b*tch bully you again? What did she tell you?”Regina still shook her head. After a pause, she took Lyla’s hand and said, “I’m fine. I’m just… I’m just worried.”“Worried about what?“I…” Regina hung her head and her eyes sparkled.“Regina, come on, speak it out to me.” Lyla urged.Regina said in a gentle voice, “You probably won’t believe it. I find it unbelievable as well. I did not expe
Regina was stunned.A frozen silence trailed along the air between them.A few seconds later, she burst into a smile.She looked up at Pricilla and blurted coldly, “You think you can fool me?”Priscilla shook her head, “Forget it if you don’t believe me.”Regina’s face darkened.“What exactly do you mean by saying this?”“Nothing, it is great if you can understand, but it doesn’t matter if you don’t. I just want to remind you, that you brought me down five years ago because I was off guard, but now it is different! Do you think I am so silly to come without fully prepared, knowing that you and Lindsay are trying to set me up and destroy my reputation again?”Regina’s face changed completely. She shook her head in disbelief and said, “It is impossible! If you had evidence, why didn’t you disclose it five years ago?”Priscilla smiled with faint mockery.Without another word, she turned around and was about to go inside.Caught in a panic suddenly, Regina reached out her hand to pull Pri
