Chapter 1400 Apologize To Me
The charity dinner raised a total of fifty million and garnered more attention than any previous charity dinner.
Moreover, the photo of Scarlette wearing a traditional gown went viral.
The netizens recognized the embroidery on the traditional gown as the work of Leila Joule, the traditional gown
master. Coupled with Scarlette's unique and stunning appearance, her newly registered Twitter account gained
hundreds of thousands of followers in less than a day.
As her agent, Charlotte received various endorsements and producers' invitations,
Even Kieron, the director of Besieged, personally called Charlotte, saying that Scarlette suited the role of a
character in his film and gave Charlotte the screen test address.
Charlotte hired a personal assistant for Scarlette and wanted the assistant to accompany Scarlette for the screen
test. In the end, it was still herself who brought Scarlette over.

The screen test was held at Langfield Hotel.
It took over a year to complete the script of Besieged. Since Kieron was aiming for awards, he was particularly
meticulous about casting. Many actors had submitted their resumes to his studio.
Once Charlotte had parked the car in the hotel's basement, she took Scarlette to the elevator.
Upon entering the elevator, she raised her head and saw two people walking toward her from afar. The man in a
black and white plaid coat wore a hat and a mask, exuding an exceptionally superior aura.
Charlotte recognized the coat at a glance. It's the matching set I custom-made from Chanel! So that jerk is giving
me the cold shoulder, yet he's still wearing the clothes I bought for him, huh?
Slightly displeased, she raised her hand and pressed the close button desperately. Just as the door was about to
close, Joash already ran over and blocked the door with his chubby arm.
“Ms. Benson, I already waved my hand at you, asking you to wait for us,” he muttered pitifully.
“Oh, I didn't notice it,” Charlotte replied.
Joash recalled how Charlotte had shifted her gaze from Jerry to him and mumbled under his breath. She obviously

saw it but pretended she did not. Is she angry at Jerry?
Charlotte stood there with her legs slightly apart, not intending to step back. Left with no choice, Joash squeezed
toward the back of the elevator. When Jerry entered, it was difficult for him to move further back, so he stood
beside Charlotte.
Scarlette glanced at the two people in front of her. Although the distance between their arms was less than twenty
centimeters, she felt like a Milky Way was between them.
Scarlette asked, “Lottie, are you in a bad mood?”
“Yeah, I feel upset,” Charlotte replied, crossing her arms and looking at the elevator door. However, her gaze fell on
Jerry. “I don't know what got into the elevator. The smell is unbearable.”
Joash hung his head in silence. What a temper Ms. Benson has! I wonder how Jerry can stand it. I heard they've
been dating for about three years...

Jerry seemed not to hear Charlotte's words at all. When the elevator reached the thirty-eighth floor, he was the first
to step out once the doors opened. Unexpectedly, Charlotte moved as well and bumped into him.
Just as he was about to help her, she already steadied herself.
The woman glared at him and turned to Joash behind them. “Your friend bumped into me and didn't even
apologize. Is he mute?”
Joash had never seen such a scene before. Instinctively, he looked toward Jerry, who was staring right at him.
Soon, he recalled what Charlotte had said to Jerry in the private room that day. Charlotte said she would never
speak to Jerry again. That's why she spoke to me like that. Why don't you answer, Jerry? Why are you passing the
buck to me?
Feeling helpless, he forced himself to say, “Well, Jerry has a sore throat. It's hard for him to speak. Let me apologize
on his behalf. Don't be mad, Ms. Benson.”
“All right. I accept your apology. I won't make things difficult for an assistant like you.” With that, Charlotte passed
by Jerry and took the lead in stepping out of the elevator.
Joash was speechless.
