As soon as those who were watching the drama outside the door saw Cindy’s furious expression, they
avoided her for fear that they would suffer.
Anxious, Leanne shifted her gaze to Eliza. “Miss Robbins, I know you hate Cindy, but you made her
look so bad. After all, she’s Young Master Jewell’s fiancée. Even President Daley has to treat her with
respect.”
“It’s fine. If I fail to become an actress, you can join me in starting a business in the future, ” Eliza said
in a light-hearted manner, “My entrepreneurial skills are better than my acting skills.”
Leanne was speechless. “Please don’t lie to me. When have you ever started a business? What’s
more, it’s all too easy for the Jewell family to destroy anyone.”
“ I know.” Eliza laughed with a trace of sarcasm in her voice.
No one knew it better than her because she was the one who had gotten destroyed previously.
Soon, Director Cheever held an urgent meeting. “ Since Cindy is getting married at the end of this year,
she might not have enough time to shoot a movie. After discussing with her company, we’ve decided to
substitute her with Eliza. She’ll now be the female lead. The first supporting actress will only join the
cast the day after tomorrow, so everyone can rest in the next two days. Eliza, do familiarize yourself
with the script for the female lead in the meantime.”
“Alright. ” Eliza took the script under everyone’s surprised looks.
No one believed that Cindy left so abruptly because of her wedding.
It was probably because Eliza’s acting was too superb. If Cindy continued to be the female lead, she
would be beaten hands down. Hence, she had no choice but to quit. That was also why Eliza and
Cindy had a row this afternoon.
However, everyone was shrewd enough to keep quiet.
Since there were no scenes to shoot this afternoon, Eliza headed back to the hotel by car.
She planned to return to Canberra for two days after taking a bath.
As it was sweltering in the bathroom, she only came out with a towel wrapped around her body.
The moment she came out, she was stunned at the sight of the figure on the couch. Chester was still
dressed in the same expensive shirt and pants from this morning. Beneath his short black hair was an
elegant and handsome face.
Who would have thought that such a person would barge into someone else’s room without knocking
on the door?
“Chester Jewell, how did you get in?” Eliza became sulky. Under such circumstances, she could not
help but lose her composure.
“Through the door.” Chester raised two long fingers that held a thin room card between them.
He gazed at the woman in front of him with interest. The pink towel was wrapped around the woman’s
private parts, revealing only her shoulders and calves that were covered with water droplets. She had
just washed her thick hair. She had not dried it and it was tied into a bun. Her face and collarbone were
so exquisite that any man would be crazy about her.
However, what caused Chester to zone out was her dark eyes.
She looked like Charity when she was a teen.
This was also what Charity had looked like after Chester did it with her for the first time. She had come
out of the bathroom with her hair tied into a bun. Her eyes had also looked the same way, carrying a
hint of unease and bashfulness as she tried to calm herself down.
All of a sudden, Chester felt his body burning uncontrollably.
Many people said that he was a playboy, but only he knew that he was not a horny man. At that
moment, however, he was just like a young man who had never seen the world before.
