Chapter 711

Hestia and Jessie exchanged gazes. Jessie then nodded and took over the conversation. "So what if that’s true?""It’s always about Penn, isn’t it? He insisted that I come here to talk to you about a collaboration."Crosleigh had gotten used to being free, away from his family, and since his not-so-reliable elder brother went back home to manage the family business, he finally became a little freer than before.‘That’s why I could come to Genecity for some fun today, and I just so happen to be able to do Penn a favor while I’m here.’Hestia took a glance at Jessie doubtfully, while Jessie shook her head, motioning that she did not know what was going on either."This is the contract. You can read it for yourself." Crosleigh took out a stack of folded papers from his pocket, and those who did not know the content of the documents might straight-up think that it was only a stack of rubbish. "Pennleigh said that the terms of the collaboration will be up to you, and if you’re not satis

Chapter 712

Judging from his character, Hestia originally thought that Crosleigh would only pester her for two or three days at most.Unexpectedly, he had been here for one whole week. He would go to work on time every morning, and would be the last to leave at night. If he were an employee of the studio, Hestia would probably have to give him a bonus for his work attitude."He’s way too patient." Jessie shook her head and sighed.Hestia walked over expressionlessly. "Have you finished sorting out all the materials? Why are you still standing here watching what’s going on with Crosleigh? You’ve actually miscalculated yesterday’s finances. You’re lucky that the studio hasn’t opened up for business yet."Hearing Hestia’s heart-wrenching words, Jessie covered her chest exaggeratedly."I have something to do tonight, so let’s give everyone a break after lunch today." Hestia ignored Jessie’s expression and said, "Everyone’s worked hard to reorganize the studio during this time, it must’ve been har

As soon as she thought of this, Hestia frowned indistinctly.Sure enough, Rickard arrived at the scene not long after. Hestia subconsciously looked over and did not see any strange woman standing beside him; the one who came with him was Zikmund instead.Seeing this, she felt an instant relief for some reason.However, after a while, Hestia’s expression froze for a bit.‘Rickard can be with whoever he likes. What has it got to do with me?’Having not seen Hesper in a long time, Rickard’s gaze would stop on Hestia from time to time. In fact, Rickard could also feel that Hestia had been avoiding him recently. She was probably avoiding suspicions because of the previous news."Did Jessie not come?" Zikmund looked around, but he did not see Jessie anywhere. He felt a little lost for a moment. "I thought she would come with Hesper. She just loves to be around when there’s such an event.""Too bad she doesn’t want to be around you."Zikmund was at a loss for words. Although what Rick

‘Xenia Lanik, Zenovia Lanik. They sound like biological sisters.’Although the distance between her and Zenovia was a little too far and Hestia could not see what Zenovia looked like, she had already seen Xenia, who looked gorgeous, so Zenovia must not look too shabby in order for her to have the confidence to become a celebrity."Does her existence bother you?"Nathaniel’s voice sounded from behind, but Hestia paused for a split second, then retracted her gaze and looked at Nathaniel with a half-smile."Mr. Tucker, you seem as if you can’t wait for me to turn you into a cuckold." Hestia said bluntly, "I have nothing to do with Rickard, so if you're hoping to see me lose my cool and walk out there to argue with someone else, then you're going to be disappointed big time.""Why would I think so? I have a lot of faith in you, Ms. Deschamps." Nathaniel took Hestia’s arm and said, "It’s just that I didn’t expect Rickard to find himself a new lover so soon. It seems that the two of the

It seemed that she had decided that Hestia did not dare to talk back to her only because of a guilty conscience. Hence, regardless of Crosleigh’s obstruction, Xenia was determined to challenge Hestia.‘I must make Crosleigh see just what kind of woman Hestia is! Zenovia is the future wife of the president of Duval Group, and I’m a standout among my peers too. So why does Crosleigh follow Hestia around all the time?’"Okay."Hestia was not someone who would take the initiative to offend anyone if she had not been offended first. She was already not very happy that night, as she had been showing Xenia enough respect and giving her enough chances to step down over and over again as a result of her patience.Now she, Xenia, was the one who did not want them.Nathaniel took half a step backward, leaving some space for Hestia to go at it."You seem very committed to witnessing something thrilling, don’t you? If Rickard and I make it onto the headlines of some random entertainment news

Hearing these words, Zenovia’s heart skipped a beat. She instantly turned her head and glanced at Rickard, only to see him lift his head and meet her gaze."Mr. Duval, what’s wrong...?"Rickard shook his head and explained softly, "I’m going out to pick someone up now, and Benji will be heading out with me. Now, Ms. Lanik, since you’ve already entered the infield of the reception with me, you can approach any of the connections that you wish to obtain, and if you can’t secure it during this banquet, you can always get Benji to assist you later on."Hearing that Rickard was going out, Zenovia immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then nodded and said, "Of course, you should move on with whatever you have to do. I know what to do and what not to do on this occasion, so I won’t continue to bother you and Mr. Lynch.""Good."Xenia could not hear what the two of them were talking about, but they looked very intimate, so she turned her head and looked at Hestia who, for some reason, st

"You say you’re Rickard’s girlfriend, but what proof do you have?"Hestia’s voice sounded unrestrained, so the people around them heard the argument and started to look over. Some of the people had even recognized Hestia and Zenovia and started to discuss among themselves in a low voice.However, Zenovia’s collaboration with Rickard was intended to cause a scandal, so it should not be a big deal even if it were to go a little too far.Zenovia straightened her posture and proclaimed, "Don’t you know that I’m Rickard’s female companion for the night? Have you ever seen Rickard bring a female companion along his side when he attends such an event? So when he's chosen to bring me to such an important occasion, if this isn’t proof, then what is?""Rickard also brings Benji around with him all the time, so according to your logic, he should have a thing for men."Hestia’s voice sounded calm and unwavering. Someone standing near her chuckled, causing the embarrassment that Zenovia felt t

Before Hestia could say anything, Pennleigh continued, "Ever since you left Eustoma to return to Halwanest, I’d been waiting for you to come back to fulfill your promise. But all I got... was the news of your death."‘A promise that I made?’Hestia did not know about this, but with the current situation that they were in, no matter what kind of promise Hesper had made to Pennleigh, Hestia would never admit that she was Hesper. She stared at Nathaniel who was standing next to her and did not hesitate before she stepped forward and took Nathaniel’s arm."Sorry, sir, but I really don’t know what you’re talking about. Besides, this is my husband, Nathaniel Tucker. We’re already married, so please show some self-respect.""You finally think of me, Ms. Deschamps. You’re indeed someone who’d kick down the ladder."Hestia was at a loss for words.Even if Hestia was not willing to listen to what Nathaniel had to say at the moment, she still had to pretend to be in a harmonious relationshi

Hestia lowered her head, so Rickard turned around. He had roughly guessed what happened earlier, so he continued. "What I mean is, there’s no point in you arguing with her because I’m indeed courting her."Zenovia was astonished by what she heard, while Xenia did not expect that response either."Zen... Didn’t you say..."The rest of the sentence did not get uttered. No matter how dull and slow Xenia was, she could tell that Zenovia was not Rickard’s girlfriend, and Hestia’s friend had not been bragging at all.‘Hestia actually has connections with so many high-tier men.’Crosleigh seemed to have only gotten to know Xenia for the first time that day. Pennleigh had told him before that Xenia was someone that he should not get close with, as she was dumb and impulsive, but all he obtained from the advice was that Pennleigh was looking down on him and his standards.However, looking at it now, his mind and rationale must have gone gaga.A dinner party got wrecked because of the ups

Hestia’s voice sounded extremely calm. She then squeezed a scoff out of her from the very bottom of her throat. "Nathaniel Tucker, you scheme about everything around you all day long. Aren't you worried that you’ll end up with nothing at the end of the day? I won’t fall for your schemes over and over again, so let me make it clear to you right here that you’ve exhausted all my trust in you."The smile on Nathaniel’s face gradually faded, and Hestia continued, "Do you know why Hesper didn’t fall for you and straight up rejected you in the end? If you had made things clear, perhaps she would respect you even more because of your sincerity. But you stayed with the Lanes and deceived Matthew and Hesper for so many years. You’re like a parasite who’s been living in the shadows. If it was up to me to decide, I’d look down on you too."After she had gotten all those sentences out of her, Nathaniel’s expression had completely turned cold, but the corners of Hestia’s lips twitched and curled
