Stella was stupefied as she didn’t expect to see him, “Mr. James.”
The rain became heavier.
“But your car…”
“Only some paint was peeled. It’s not a big deal. But Ms. Radomil, your car…”
Stella looked over following his gaze and found the left light of her car was broken.
Caesar said, “How about this? I will ask the insurance company to deal with this and I will send you back first. There
will be a heavy rain later.”
Seeing that there was a long traffic jam behind her car, Stella nodded her head, “Then I will drive my car to the
roadside first.”
Holding the umbrella, Caesar sent Stella to her car and then looked towards the driver and said indifferently, “Stop
the car by the roadside.”
The driver wiped away the sweats on his forehead and hurriedly got into the car after receiving the order.
After parking her car, Stella called the insurance company and reported the condition. Then she picked up her
things and got out of the car.
Caesar, who was waiting for her at the door, stepping forward when seeing Stella going out.
Looking at the umbrella above her head, Stella said, “Thank you.”
Caesar smiled, “You’re welcome. It’s what I should do. Ms. Radomil, please get into the car.”
Stella declined, “Don’t bother. I can hail a taxi.”
She took out a name card from her bag and handed it to Caesar, “This is my phone number. Mr. James, if you need
any compensation later, you can contact me.”
Caesar took the name card from her, “All right.”
Stella nodded at him, “I’m sorry for what happened today. Sorry, I wasted your time.”
“Ms. Radomil, don’t be so serious. It’s not a serious matter and it didn’t waste my time.”
After finishing the words, Caesar handed the umbrella to Stella, “Ms. Radomil, now that you don’t want me to give
you a ride, please keep this umbrella.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“No need. I…”
Before Stella could finish the words, Caesar had pressed the umbrella into her hand, “Ms. Radomil, please don’t be
courteous to me. For a beautiful girl like you, I will feel distressed if you catch a cold because of the rain.”
Before Stella could say anything, Caesar smiled at her, walked to the black car in strides and then got into the car.
What Caesar said was true – there was a heavy rain after a short while.
It was summer, a season during which it rained frequently.
Stella stood there and waited for half an hour. Only when the staff of the insurance company came did she leave.
She then came back to her studio. Because of the rain, there were few guests in the store and it looked less vivid
than usual time.
Elaine ran over, “Stella, it’s raining heavily. Where have you been?”
“I went to the Conrad Group. Didn’t I ask you to stay at home for rest in the next few days? Why do you come
over?”
“It’s boring. I would rather stay here.”
“Well. Go to the lounge if you feel tired. I will go to my office.”
“Okay.”
The rain lasted for three days. Until the morning of the weekend, the sun finally broke through the clouds.
Stella was drawing the design on the sofa, while Elaine and Sherry were all lying on the sofa.
After a long while, Sherry suddenly stood up, “We can’t be like this. It’s good weather and it’s also the weekend. We
can’t lie at home like this. We should go out for a walk.”
Stella asked, “Where do you want to go?”
Sherry took out her phone, “Let me see.”
She then browsed the web pages. But she didn’t find a satisfying place.
Lying on the sofa, Sherry sighed emotionally, “Is there any relaxing and interesting outdoor exercises that can
improve my mood?”
Sherry suddenly thought of something and hurriedly took out her phone.
Several minutes later, she abruptly sat up from the sofa, “Stella, Let’s visit Winnie. I want to see her filming the
variety show.”
Stella turned around, “That room escape show?”
“Yes. The filming begins today and it’s not in a hurry. I’ve asked Winnie and she said we can go over.”
Elaine also became excited, “Can we go there? Really?”
Looking at the sparkling lights in their eyes, Stella nodded her head, “Let’s go.”
Elaine had been City N several times, but she only commuted from her apartment to the studio every day and
Stella hadn’t taken her to any place.
Now that she was interested in this, Stella decided to take her there.
Hearing Stella answer, Elaine and Sherry immediately went back to their house to change their clothes.
Stella also tidied up the drawings in front of her.
…
In the filming studio….
Winnie was in a dressing room, and after a short while, several entertainers walked into the room and greeted her.
They were all the honoured guests of this variety show, who would film the show with her later. One was a male
star who was very popular in recent two years, one was an actress who suddenly became popular because of an
online soap opera, and one was an entertainer who always attended various kinds of variety shows.
Winnie greeted them one by one. After their leaving, she asked her assistant, “Isn’t there six honoured guests?
Where are the rest two guests?”
Her assistant replied in a low voice, “I haven’t had time to tell you about this. A guest that they invited before
couldn’t take part in the filming, so the program production team turned to Flora Alvin. I only received this notice an
hour ago…”
Winnie was rendered speechless.
Flora and Winnie debuted onto the stage in the same period. She had many resources in the soap opera
community and starred many operas that had accumulated a solid fan base. Her popularity was not inferior to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWinnie’s.
It was just that she didn’t have many resources in the movie community.
In terms of this, Flora explained that Winnie had many high-class resources as the Conrad Group was her back-up
and claimed that she was not inferior to Winnie at all and it was just that she wasn’t as lucky as Winnie. She kept
satirizing Winnie, explicitly or inexplicitly.
When Winnie was trapped in the slander, saying that she was a homewrecker, Flora’s team spread many negative
rumours about her. It was well-known among the practitioners in the entertainment circle.
If they would attend the same program, it would be very interesting.
Winnie asked after a while of silence, “Where’s the other guest?”
Her assistant was stunned, and then she immediately came to her own sense, “The program team said he’s an
unknown entertainer who just debuted to the stage. He isn’t popular. But I heard that he’s very smart… As for his
name, I’m not clear about it. I will ask them about this.”
“Never mind,” Winnie stood up, “I want to go out for some fresh air.”
When thinking that she would meet Flora later, Winnie felt breathless.
Winnie walked to the corridor. Several staff greeted her and she responded to it with a smile. She then walked
aside, preparing to find a quiet place that no one would bother her.
Winnie heaved a sigh of relief when she walked to the stairs.
However, just as she prepared to sit down, she heard some small noises.
Winnie froze and subconsciously looked over.
At the same time, the man in the stairwell also looked over.
Several seconds later, Winnie broke the silence, “You…”
Channing had a cigarette in one hand and a lighter in the other. It seemed like he was going to light up the
cigarette.
He finally pulled himself together several seconds later and hurriedly put the cigarette and lighter together and put
them into his pocket.
Winnie blinked when she witnessed this. She was suddenly lost for words.
