Chapter 701

“Mister…” Aurelia’s voice was shaky. “May I know what ‘people like us’ are like to you?”Neil’s disdainful attitude and despising gaze made him a completely different person from the man who saved her from the police just now. Something sharp seemed to have pierced the pink bubble within her as it burst.Yeah, “people like her” must not be worthy of a glance from him.“Ms. Chilton, don’t be upset,” Cordelia said gently, “Fredric’s our friend, and we’re worried for him now that he got into danger. The entire matter feels suspicious too, so we hope you can tell us the truth.”Aurelia bent down to pick up the metal box on the floor and held it close to her.What truth did she have to tell? She had repeated the truth thousands of times, but they did not believe her!“Acting mute again?” Neil raised his voice, gripping her arm.Aurelia gasped in pain. She barely knew him for the day, but he had already grabbed her arm so many times that there was already a mark.“Why do you think I

Aurelia froze. The hand before her was fair and supple, unlike the many pairs of rough ones she had seen in the basement.It felt like there was a halo around the owner of the hand. She was beautiful and gentle, but there was a sense of determination in her gaze. It made people want to get closer to her.It was just that Aurelia knew that “people like her” could not dirty a hand so clean. She looked down, took a deep breath, and stood up on her own.Cordelia took the initiative to hold her hand.Aurelia’s heart felt like something poked it as she looked at Cordelia in a daze. After some time, she asked, “Y-You believe me? ‘People like me’ do everything from tricking to stealing. I might be acting.”Cordelia chuckled and tucked her hair by her ear.“You don’t know how to act. But we actually have an award-winning actor here. You can ask him about acting skills. Who knows? You may be able to use it the next time you encounter the police.”Aurelia paused before a giggle escaped her

Chapter 703

Fredric had been transferred to the VIP hospital ward, and Trinity had been taking care of him these days.His trip to Chaiseland this time felt extraordinary. He still felt like he was dreaming. It was just that the dream was wonderful. Each time he opened his eyes, he could see Trinity by his side.“You don’t have to push so hard,” Fredric said softly. “There are doctors and nurses. It’s too tiring for you to stay here every day.”“Why? You don’t want me to keep you company?”Trinity brought fresh strawberries that looked full and juicy. She held one in front of Fredric, but the latter only smiled without moving.Trinity paused. “You don’t like this?”“No.” Fredric looked at her, reluctant to look away for even a second. “Have the sweet tip of the strawberry. I’ll have the top!”Trinity grinned with wet eyes.“Trinity…” Fredric put a hand on the back of hers. “Do you still blame me?”Trinity pressed her lips together and said nothing with a lowered head.“Do you know why I

“Mm, no problem,” Fredric agreed easily.Trinity was then at a loss. ‘W-Why is he not reacting the way he should?’The plot should go like she said she wanted to search his bag, and he would stop her with all his might. Then she would get up and take the bag to rummage it in front of him, and he would panic and grab it. As they pushed and pulled, he would pull her over, and… their lips would touch, and the whole world would turn pink!This was the first time in her director’s career that someone was not going according to the storyline!Fredric smiled. “My bag’s just over there. Bring it over for me.”Trinity blushed and looked at him weakly before passing him the bag.“Open it, the innermost pocket.”Trinity did as she was told.The lawyer’s bag was rectangular, with three pockets inside and three more outside, carrying important case materials.She felt inside as he instructed and suddenly felt a small item with a familiar touch of fabric… She pulled it out to see that it wa

“I know that it was my bad in the past.” Fredric held her hand. “Trinity, you have bloopers and retakes in filming. If the actor isn’t in a good state, they get lots of retakes… Can you let me have a retake too?“I promise, just this once,” Fredric said seriously with a smile. “It’ll be one-take from now on. I’ll be your best male lead!”Trinity fell in a daze as a tear fell, but her smile came back. She pressed a kiss on Fredric’s forehead, and both of them smiled at each other, their eyes shining with happiness.“Okay,” she replied softly. “You’re the only male lead in my script from now on. But you have to listen to the director and can’t change up the storyline yourself, okay?”Fredric grinned. “Whatever Director Trinity says!”…At night, Cordelia lay by Zephyr’s side as she recalled what had happened recently.It had actually only been two weeks since they found out that Fredric had gotten hurt and gone missing to him being saved out of the critical state, but it felt so l

Chapter 706

Cordelia and Zephyr rushed to the venue where the new launching would be held despite the night.The event would be held the following day, but the staff had discovered that over ten haute couture dresses had varying degrees of damage to them when they ran the regular check tonight. The holes were not too big, but they affected the appearance, and the garments could barely be used.One would need to glance at the clothes and know that they had been intentionally ruined.Cordelia was calm and carefully went through each piece of clothing before she asked, “Weren’t these clothes delivered three days in advance? Didn’t you all check them properly, then?”“They were sent by the head designer of each brand personally, and the vehicles they came in were bulletproof. Our people checked them in detail when they arrived, and there was no issue!”Zephyr scowled and sent someone to retrieve the surveillance recording.“Cordelia, stay calm,” he told her with an arm around her. “This venue ha

Trinity was shocked and quickly put a hand around Cordelia. “Don’t get too excited. Careful of the baby!”Cordelia beamed and returned to the meeting room to discuss the design changes with the designers.The area of damage on the skirts was not big. Some alteration and the blend of cultural elements might produce an unexpected result.The designers agreed, and their eyes lit up with wonder when the design was completed.The elegance and enigma of cultural elements made the dresses stand out even more.“The draft looks great!” said one of the designers. “But it might be difficult to execute it.”The meeting room went silent.The other designers nodded in agreement.“Yeah, all our dresses are hand-sewn. This part is no exception.”“To embroider in cultural elements here, the idea is great, but we don’t know how to. Will it be in time if we learn now?”Cordelia’s brows locked in place.The area of damage had to be embroidered and sewn. The added pattern had to blend in with th

“You’ve got some guts to be roaming the streets like this, huh? Do you know you’re like a big juicy steak to those people? They could rip even your underwear off you with your outfit!”Neil paused and could not help chuckling.“Is it so serious?”Aurelia looked dead serious. “Isn’t Fredric’s encounter enough for you to keep your guard up?”“But it was nighttime when that happened to him—”“Uncle.” The girl crossed her arms in front of herself. “Nobody cares if it’s day or night when they commit crimes on this street!”“What!?” Neil was in disbelief.He was not shocked about the crimes, but the term of address she had chosen—“uncle”!Uncle!?What did she address Fredric? Fredric!What? Did he look so old to her that she had to call him uncle?Neil’s gaze darkened significantly as he tightened his fists.Aurelia observed his expression carefully and noted that he seemed upset. True, it would be weird if he was happy when an affluent man like him was in the slums!She scratch

Chapter 709

Cordelia stood outside the hotel room, worried about what was happening inside.This was Neil’s VIP suite, and Aurelia had been inside for two days.Neil had not entered the bedroom these two days and would only move around in the living room. The bedroom door was tightly shut—he had locked Aurelia inside.He had bodyguards guarding the door and would go out leisurely every day. If he was free, he would sit on the couch in the living room and prop his long legs on the table, swishing a glass of wine. His eyes would be on the bedroom door as he wore a triumphant smile.Cordelia heard from the bodyguards that Neil had only said two things the day he caught Aurelia back.The first sentence was: “Get in!”He then tossed all the dresses and design drafts to her and said the second sentence: “Don’t think about eating if you don’t finish embroidering them!”Cordelia chuckled. Of course, she knew Neil would not starve Aurelia, but she was curious why he was this angry. He was quite comp

Aurelia frowned. She wanted to open her eyes but was reluctant to do so.Neil’s handsome face was scrunched up in worry, and he would pat her face seeing she did not react.However, the doctor stopped him. “Sir, she’s simply too tired and needs rest. Let her sleep well, and she’ll be fine when she wakes up.”“Sleep? She’s been asleep for 12 hours!” Neil checked his watch anxiously. “She won’t lose her mind from too much sleep, will she?”The doctor chuckled dryly and turned to leave.Neil vented his anger at the bodyguards at the door.“Why are you all standing here? Don’t you know to get another doctor!?”“Mr. Harris, well…” The bodyguards were rendered speechless too.That doctor was already the fifth one, and each one had said the same thing.Aurelia had not slept or rested for two full days. Of course, she needed sufficient sleep.It was something so normal, but why was Neil so nervous?For self-preservation, though, the bodyguards pretended to go off to get another doct
