Charlotte curled her lips in disdain.“Oh, Tiffany, I’m going to stop exposing your secrets now. I mean, we’re crew members after all. However, if you ever wantonly claim to be my best friend again, I’m not going to show you the same courtesy!”She coldly swatted Tiffany’s hand away as soon as she said her piece and walked past her.Everyone eyed Tiffany skeptically.‘Tiffany!’She looked like a pure, untainted woman on the surface. Was she really a snake, just like Charlotte had described her to be?Tiffany stared at Charlotte, her trembling hands digging into her skin.‘I’m surprised. It’s been more than four years, and Charlotte still hasn’t grown up. She’s just as reckless, stupid, and stubborn as ever! I made it very clear to her last night that I have Night King’s support. If she had any brains at all, she would fear the powerful support I have and make peace with me. I guess she just doesn’t know how to appreciate kindness… I was nice enough to make the first move by decl
“Please watch your step, Mr. Barkley.”Only then did Dickson step out of the vehicle. Steadily, he exited the car.Everyone stared at him. His car was silvery white and so clean that it looked as if it had just been washed. He was wearing an immaculate white suit as he exited the vehicle, creating a visually impactful sight.Everyone began greeting him warmly as he walked toward them.“Hello, Mr. Barkley!”“Mr. Barkley, you’re here!”“You look great today, Mr. Barkley!”Dickson glanced indifferently at every face in front of him. His eyes only lingered for two seconds when they landed on Charlotte’s face. A hint of warmth appeared on his face.Then, he looked around again.“Is anyone missing?”Carter quickly bowed and replied, “You asked everyone to be at the studio yesterday, but it’s a big studio. If everyone walked around, it would be difficult to have them gathered in one spot, so I made sure to be the first to arrive this morning and I had everyone gather in this empty l
Charlotte was not a new actress now, so she already knew the rules of showbiz very well—In order to prevent the script from being spoiled, the complete script of a film or drama was always the top secret of the entire crew. Only a few of the most crucial senior officials in the crew knew the full script, and each actor would only get the part that they participated in.Dickson showed the entire script to Charlotte without reservation, which was more than enough to show his trust in her.Charlotte shook her head. “Forget it, I’m afraid that I’ll lose control of my mouth at some point and tell others about it after I’ve read the story. If I were to do so, the script would spread like wildfire in the business. If the plot is spoiled, it’ll definitely affect the box office of this movie in the future.”Dickson did not respond to her but chuckled knowingly.Charlotte was bewildered. “Mr. Barkley, what are you laughing at?”Dickson stared at her gently. “I’m laughing at your deliberat
Dickson, who had accumulated a lot of grievances, was left speechless for a split second as his lips trembled vigorously. “Well, my bad. It turns out that you’re the punctual one out of all of us present. I guess it’s because all of us arrived at work too early. I’ve misunderstood you and I’m sorry about that. Please don’t take it to heart.”The onlookers stared at each other in astonishment. Even Charlotte was surprised.In the entertainment industry, even superstars like Zenios respected Mr. Barkley.However, Julius was a popular star at best. Charlotte had not expected Mr. Barkley to apologize to Julius so respectfully...Julius did not look flattered at all. He opened his thin lips calmly and said coolly, “It’s nothing.”Dickson patted Julius on the shoulder and raised his voice. “Now, guys, allow me to introduce to you the second male lead of the sequel of The First Sorceress Princess and the person that I was waiting for before—Julius Randall.”Everyone applauded.The actr
A world-renowned critic in the entertainment industry had once commented, “If Julius Randall were to put a little more thought into his entertainment career, he’d definitely be more popular than Zenios Connor.”Although Charlotte had just met Julius, she could feel that Julius was a very indifferent and arrogant loner, and such people were often difficult to get along with.‘Why did Mr. Barkley cast such a difficult actor as the second male lead?!’“Carlie, are you okay?” A clear voice interrupted Charlotte’s thoughts.Charlotte moved her eyes away from Julius immediately and looked at Jezebel, who had already come close to her. “Yeah...”“Tsk! I’ve seen a lot of people who love to put on airs. Don’t take it to heart.” Jezebel pointed at Julius mockingly.“Besides, isn’t he just an actor who can barely be considered a top-tier star? You’re more well-known than him. What made him think that he has the qualifications to act all superior while talking to you? He really has no self-a
“Your ankle has been sprained, so it’ll definitely hurt. Carlie, wait for me here. I’ll be back in a second.” Jezebel dashed toward the river after saying this.Charlotte looked at Jezebel in a daze.Before long, Jezebel reached the river bank and tore a piece of fabric about four inches long and two inches wide from her skirt. After absorbing water in the river with the fabric, she quickly ran back to Charlotte and wrapped the cloth around Charlotte’s ankle.“Hiss...” The sudden coldness on her skin made Charlotte tremble a little.However, the moment the chill penetrated her sprained ankle, the pain that had been stinging dissipated instantly, and a sense of relief followed.Seeing that Charlotte was no longer suffering, Jezebel breathed a sigh of relief.“I accidentally sprained my ankle once when I was walking down a staircase. The doctor said that one should always apply a cold compress instantly after a sprain. You can try to stand up now to see whether you can do so by you
Charlotte’s eyebrows twitched in surprise. “Sorry, I don’t understand what you’re talking about. Can you be more straightforward?”The expressionless Julius looked cooler than the water in the nearby river. “There often must be a reason for a person to pay so much attention to someone else. Don’t you find it abnormal at all for a prestigious person such as Ms. Atson to kneel and flatter an unworthy actor?”“What?!” Charlotte’s eyes were on the brink of popping out of their sockets.The extraordinarily attractive man glanced ironically at Jezebel, who was standing next to Charlotte.“I’ve already told you everything that I should tell you very clearly. If you have any more questions, you can ask her...” He turned away and left with a scoff after saying these words.Charlotte stared at his ethereal, indifferent figure in a daze, unable to recover from the trance for a long time.“Carlie, let’s go.” Jezebel’s voice came from the side.Charlotte slowly moved her gaze away from Juliu
She took a few deep breaths and cleared her throat before answering the call.“Hello?”“What are your plans for tonight?” Zachary’s voice on the phone was still as magnetic and enticing as ever.Charlotte tried her best to remain calm.“Don’t have much going on.”“Then come over to my place for dinner,” Zachary said.Charlotte considered whether she should actually go.Zachary’s clear, magnetic voice rang out again. “Our son misses our daughter. I promised him that I’d have her over for dinner.”“Ah, I see!”Charlotte had been a little nervous, but when she heard Zachary say “our son” and “our daughter”, she felt unspeakably relaxed and at ease… She smiled instinctively.“Then I’ll pick Naomi up from kindergarten once I’ve finished working at the studio this afternoon and we’ll come to your place together.”“This afternoon?”Meanwhile, Zachary, who was standing by the French windows, had a hint of warmth on his cold, elegant face.“I asked Lily and David to pick Naomi up f
