?Chapter 226:


    The milk tea had the regr sugar level, which was too sweet for her.


    At precisely half-past one in the afternoon, the crew began their work.


    “I had my morning break, and now I get to enjoy fried chicken at work. This is making me so happy. I wonder whose family member is so thoughtful,” Susanna gleefully remarked between bites of crispy chicken wings.


    The delivery of the delectable fried chicken had arrived just ten minutes earlier, courtesy of an anonymous benefactor who imed to be connected to a crew member.


    The mystery surrounding this generous gesture left everyone in suspense, unaware of the kind-hearted contributor.


    Ellie, stealing a furtive nce at the scene, couldn’t help but smile to herself.


    Kaiden might not have admitted it openly, but his actions spoke volumes.


    As Ellie’s gaze drifted toward the presidential suite, she wondered if Kaiden had left yet.


    Today, Ellie’s responsibility was to create a down-and-out appearance for the secondary lead, Herman Coleman. Having alreadypleted his final look, today’s makeup process went smoothly.


    As Ellie worked diligently, she couldn’t help but notice the subtle nces directed her way by several crew members.


    It was clear that Kaiden’s interaction with her had stirred curiosity. In a tight-knit crew, there were no secrets. Although only a handful of people had witnessed Ellie’s presence at Kaiden’s reception the previous day, by now, the entire crew knew that the stunning stylist, known as Ellie, had sat beside the sponsor.


    “Miss Gordon, what’s your rtionship with Mr. Thorpe?” Herman inquired in a hushed tone while Ellie applied his makeup.


    While Ellie had no intention of lying, she couldn’t reveal her true rtionship with Kaiden to anyone.


    She offered a polite smile but said nothing.

    Herman sneered, assuming Ellie was nothing more than a gold digger with nothing to be proud of.


    A few momentster, Herman found himself captivated by Ellie’s radiant beauty and whispered, “Miss Gordon, I was enchanted by you at first sight. Would you consider being…”


    “With me? My mother works in the fashion industry, and I can provide you with the best resources.”


    Ellie momentarily paused in her efforts, her eyes growing icy.


    “Mr. Coleman, I’ll choose to ignore what you just said. I hope this will be thest time you bring it up.” Once she finished styling Herman, Ellie left without a second thought.


    Herman, left smarting from the rejection, felt a wave of embarrassment wash over him.


    As Demi approached, she couldn’t contain herughter. “Herman, the way you dress has a significant impact on your appearance. You have countless fans who adore your good looks. Did Ellie intentionally give you this 100k?”


    Before his career took off, Herman had been the most handsome guy in school. After entering the entertainment industry, he had capitalized on his looks for marketing purposes, shamelessly unting his handsome features.
