“Hmm… no!” Aurelia answered seriously and frankly, “Uncle, a necklace is a pretty thing!”
“What, you mean I’m not pretty?” Neil was indignant. “Pretty” was not quite an adjective for him, but he was a
handsome man acknowledged by showbiz, and his title as the nation’s first love did not come in vain.
“No, no!” Aurelia hurried to say.
“Then what do you mean? Didn’t you say that necklaces are pretty?”
“It’s not that you’re not pretty.” Aurelia smiled. “But you’re no ‘thing’!”
“Aurelia!”
How dare she!?
…
The new film was in the preparation stage, but Trinity was not quite happy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Cordelia saw her in the cafe with a pair of dark eye circles and a gaze of despair, she felt so bad about it.
“Cordelia, change her out!” Trinity was exasperated. “What kind of a monster is Ava Baker? Never mind that she
can’t get her lines straight. She looks the same no matter the emotions! I don’t want the title of the prodigious
director, okay? How am I a f*cking genius!? I can’t teach her!”
Cordelia could not hold back and let a chuckle slip. Even Michelle had not pushed Trinity to such a corner back then.
“Trinity, put up with it a bit more.” Cordelia ordered the director’s favorite sea-salt cheesecake and an Americano.
“Ava’s not a monster. She really wants to be an actress!”
“Huh?”
Trinity pulled up some photos. It was a collage of four photos, all Ava’s face.
Cordelia frowned. “Why are you showing me four same photos?”
“Hah, it’s not the same!” Trinity sneered. “The production requires the female lead to express four different
scenes!”
Cordelia widened her eyes in disbelief. It was one singular expression!
“If it were Millie, not only would she show four different expressions, she could do four more according to the
minuscule differences and let me pick!” Trinity huffed.
Cordelia blinked and stayed quiet. She knew that someone like Trinity, who pursued extreme perfection in art, was
not scared of harsh conditions. Her fear was someone who could not understand what she wanted!
“Don’t worry.” Cordelia said softly after a while, “Ava won’t be the female lead.”
“Really?”
Trinity’s eyes lit up, and she was pumped again. Soon, though, she grew doubtful. “You aren’t lying to me, are you?”
“Do you think I’ll lie to you with what we have?”
It was only then Trinity grinned in relief.

“Never mind about that!” Cordelia sounded confident. “I’m telling you, she won’t be the female lead. Just wait and
see. Prestige Agency will pull out very soon!”
…
Cordelia and Zephyr investigated Hannah in secret.
Prestige Agency was really a shell company. When they registered, they intentionally kept the fact that Noah was
mentally challenged and bribed the guy assessing the company information, making Noah the legal person this
way.
Once something happened to the company, the responsibilities would fall to Noah, and the Bakers would have to
clean up the mess!
“Hannah’s got a good plan!” Cordelia gritted her teeth. “Darling, we have to tell mom. We can’t let her go so
easily!”
“Don’t worry.” Zephyr hugged her. “We stay put for now, and when the time comes, she won’t end well.”
“What more can I do?”
