All Chapters of Adored Stardom: Away from Mr. Hamilton: Chapter 201 - Chapter 210

Giada was taken aback. "Cook?""Yeah." Finn nodded. "The girls in our group don't have to do the heavy lifting, so you can rest. But you need to help with cooking."Giada was left somewhat bewildered. 'I can't cook. If I could, I wouldn't have been dizzy with hunger yesterday.'Seeing the embarrassment cross Giada's face, Finn asked straightforwardly, "By the look on your face, you can't cook?" Giada instinctively turned to look at Wyneth, about to point out that she was not the only girl in the group. But before she could, Finn said, "Well, if you can't cook, then you should join us in the heavy tasks."Giada was left speechless. She looked at Wyneth, who sat there with her eyes closed. 'So what if I can't cook? Can she? And what's the deal with these two? Why is Finn so good to Wyneth? Is it because she's pretty? Is that why he's so kind to her?' For a moment, Giada felt a touch of disappointment toward Finn. She did not expect a top-tier celebrity to be so superficial.Their ta

In the elegant, quiet visitor's area of StarCrest Entertainment's headquarters, Dexter had just bid farewell to a guest when a handsome man appeared before him."Dexter, long time no see.""Mr. Silva? What brings you here all of a sudden?"Rio, a good friend of Hayden and Jake, was a frequent visitor during Hayden's sickness."I'm here to call in a favor." Rio beamed, his cheerfulness palpable.'A favor?' Dexter thought, perplexed, 'Since when does Mr. Hamilton owe Rio a favor?'"Where's Hayden?" Rio asked, his eyes already spotting Hayden lounging on a couch inside. With long strides, Rio quickly made his way in.Curious about what favor Rio might need, Dexter decided to stick around.Hayden drained the remaining coffee from his cup. As he glanced up, he saw Rio making himself comfortable on the couch and reaching for the untouched snacks on the table. Given their years of friendship, Hayden was no stranger to Rio's casual demeanor."What brings you here?"Rio smirked, his g

At the variety show, Derek's team had hustled all morning, the trio managing to wrap up their tasks ahead of schedule. As they emerged from the fields, they were all disheveled, covered in sweat and dirt. Despite wearing hats, Wyneth's fair cheeks were sunburned to a rosy hue, and droplets of perspiration traced glistening paths down her temples.Seeing this, Derek fumbled in his pocket to offer her a tissue. Unfortunately, when he pulled it out, it was sodden and grimy.Wyneth's lips twitched at the sight. "You better keep that for yourself."After a silent moment, Derek tucked the grubby tissue back into his pocket. "We've finished our task. Let's head back."During their return, the two men walked in silence, flanking Wyneth on either side. Though inwardly full of reflections, Wyneth waved at the camera. The cameraman quickly stepped forward, shifting to the solo shooting mode they had used earlier. Wyneth showed the camera her dirty hands and pointed out the traces of the day's

Finn stepped in to start the clean-up, with Wyneth following suit to get a cloth, only to have Derek snatch it up before she could lay a hand on it. The two men wasted no time diving into the kitchen's disarray.Giada stood off to the side, a shocked look plastered across her face. 'Is it my imagination or are these two guys competing to do Wyneth's chores?' she grumbled silently, resentment building. 'Why, though?'Despite the kitchen being attended to, Wyneth was not just standing around idle. She waited until Finn cleared a bit of space, then ventured in to assess the surviving ingredients. 'Due to the weather, we don't store much food, and fresh ingredients are usually just enough for the day. Giada has wasted so much... What's left...' Wyneth mulled over it for a moment before turning to the others. "Ever had aglio e olio? How about we have that for lunch?" The remaining ingredients were hardly enough for a full meal. If they attempted to cook, the resulting portions would be pi

By the time the aromatic scent hit, Giada could not help but feel her stomach rumble, and her cheeks heated up in response. But both Finn and Derek seemed to be unconcerned. Neither of them even looked her way. As a result, she felt an unexpected sense of being ignored.When Wyneth brought out the aglio e olio, Giada had to force herself to swallow the saliva that had formed at the smell. 'How could it smell this amazing? It must be an illusion! Why else would I find the aroma of such a common dish so tantalizing?' she thought, as she had always looked down on it before. 'Wyneth must've sneaked in some secret seasoning. It probably won't even taste good.'For hygiene's sake, Wyneth brought the food outside to serve it. The ingredients were scarce, but the spaghetti was abundant. Giada saw the amount Wyneth was serving her and immediately protested, "I-I don't want that much, a little will be enough." At her words, all three of them turned to look at her. Giada laughed awkwardly. "I d
