Chapter 1500
Actually, it was not totally impossible.
Cicely was with him now without any emotional attachment, let alone any expectations. To her, their
rtionship would just be a case of "using" each other.
Cicely couldn’t beat Seth in any aspect, so she was forced to settle, staying within a range that he
could tolerate. She didn’t want to harbor any expectations towards Seth anymore. The only reason
she could ept Seth''s coercion willingly was thefortable life he provided her, and... money.
Cicely was in dire need of money. Even though the word "money" sounded vulgar, without it, her
son would be unable to see the vibrant colors in this world.
However, would Seth be satisfied with this kind of "use"?
The shooting was going smoothly, and Crysti was well-treated by the crew. She was the daughter of
the Watson family from B City, this identity alonemanded respect.
Moreover, Crysti did not act haughty, she was very dedicated to acting, friendly towards the crew,
open to advice, and nobody wanted to mess with her.
Everything was calm.
The workload and quality of other artists were gradually improving; of course, there were some who
were still unable to find their direction and were stagnating, but it was all part of their journey, totally
normal.
Recently, many capable agents had joined thepany, and they had their own ideas about
cultivating artists.
So, could she look for a manager to help her run thepany, so she could focus on her
pregnancy? She gently touched her belly andughed. Yes, she should indeed spend more time on
her children.
After making this decision, Chloe began collecting the preparatory materials. She was busy all
morning, and before she knew it, it was noon.
When she stopped to rest and prepare for lunch, she picked up her phone to chat with Rose, asking
her if she had time for lunch. She was looking forward to their days of raising children together as
two pregnant women.
She thought about it, she was not exactly a responsible friend. With all the things happening
recently, she''d been neglecting Rose.
Rose, “Chloe, you irresponsible person, do you still remember that you’re the father of my child?
You abandoned us for someone else. I’m going to use you of being irresponsible and
abandoning your wife and child!”
Chloeughed. "Dear, as the father of the child, I have to work hard to earn money for his milk
powder.”
Rose snorted, "Of course, the milk powder should be bought by the child''s father, but it''s also a fact
that you''re with someone else! You actually spend so much money to keep other people. Watch
how I deal with you.”
Chloe was really speechless about this. After all, she had publicly dered that she was keeping
Damon.
Chloe, "Okay, I was wrong. To apologize, I''ll treat you to lunch today, how about it?”
Rose raised an eyebrow. "What''s for lunch?"
Chloe chuckled softly, so the fact that she spent so much money on Damon was less important than
this lunch? She asked, "What do you feel like eating?”
“Hmm…” Rose hesitated, seemingly pondering seriously. Having lunch was indeed more important
than all that money.
Rose, "I prefer spicy food to sweet ones now. I heard... Damon got you a chef who''s good at making
spicy dishes?”
Chloe raised her eyebrows. Rose''s information was indeed urate. She asked, "So we''re having
lunch at home?”
Rose, "Since you don''t have anything important going on, why don''t youe to Ms. Yasmine''s
ce?”
Chloe paused. She still hadn''t figured out what had happened in Y Country. She didn''t know how to
ask her mother about it. She could imagine that her mother would try to avoid the topic.
What she wasn''t clear about, her mother probably didn''t know how to exin either. So, she didn''t
rush to see her mother after returning home. She felt they both needed time to ept and
understand this matter. When her mother was ready, she would ask her properly.
Chloe, "No, youe out. I''ll call my chef at home to prepare the meal.”
Rose considered it, didn''t insist, just said, "Okay," and then hung up.
Getting up from the chair, Chloe arranged the afternoon''s work with her secretary, put on her coat,
and left the office. She suddenly thought of Yulia, who lived downstairs, so she gave her a call.
"Hello, Chloe." The call was quickly answered, and Yulia''s gentle voice came over.
Chloe responded softly, "I''m having lunch at home with Rose, are you free? Let''s eat together.”
Yulia pondered for a few seconds, then agreed. "Okay, do I need to buy anything? I can pick it up
on the way.”
Chloe, "No need, just show up.”
Yulia, "Alright, I''ll head back now."
Chloe, "Okay."
The elevator doors opened at that moment, Chloe slipped her hand into her down jacket pocket and
walked out. She hung up, nced at her phone, and exited the call log screen.
When she walked out of the elevator lobby, put her phone in her pocket, and looked up, she noticed
someone was making a fuss at the front desk. She immediately stopped in her tracks. Her gaze
swept over the person in front of the reception desk. Her mood, which had been quite good just
now, suddenly turned cold.
"You''re being rude, don''t you know who I am?! Ms. Summers is my granddaughter. Have you ever
seen a grandma needing an appointment to see her granddaughter?!”
It was Carolina. She stood in front of the reception desk on the first floor, reprimanding them with a
gloomy face. Whether it was her expression or tone, they were full of arrogance.
Faced with Carolina''s persistent attitude, the receptionist seemed quite troubled.
Starlight International, as an entertainmentpany, was currently at its peak. There were
countless brand partnersing and going every day. And the stars in thepany were returning
afterpleting their work, or just heading out.
Seeing the scene in the lobby, many people couldn''t help but hit the brakes. Although some of them
were artists, agents, or assistants in thepany, they barely got a chance to rub elbows with the
higher-ups. Some of them hadn''t even had a close encounter with Chloe. Now that there was some
chatter about Chloe, everyone was all ears.N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.
