But he hated this kind of lifestyle. ,
Especially social gatherings. To him, it was nothing more than a place
to grab profits off of each other, disguised in a sea of beautiful dresses and tasty champagne.
With the invitation card in his hands, he suddenly turned to Stella. “Ella, come here.”
Being called out suddenly, Stella stood up and walked towards him as she thought she must‘ve made s
ome mistake. “Did I mess up my part?”
“No. You improved a lot actually.”
A gratified look appeared on his face at the mention of this. “It doesn‘t occur to me that this is your first t
ime acting. During your first shooting, it was obvious you were inexperienced , but I don‘t see that anym
ore. This career suits you.”
“Thank you, Bradley ...” She was shocked by his sudden compliments.
Bradley hadn‘t forgotten why he called the rookie over, and he handed her the invitation letter in his han
ds. “Are .you interested in attending?”
Stella was stunned for a while before taking it and reading it. “But such an event usually invites the big

shots in the circle...”
Perhaps small–time actors like her didn‘t qualify to attend such an event.
Bradley replied, “Don‘t be nervous. It may look like it‘s some sort of professional business meeting but
everyone is there to have fun. Don‘t take it too seriously.”
He stopped for a beat before continuing, “If you decide to be a professional actor in the future, you coul
d use this opportunity to broaden your connections. I hate this too, but it‘s an unfortunate necessity in t
he entertainment industry.”
Stella understood what he meant. “Thank you. I will do my best and fight for it.”
Bradley nodded his head in delight and patted her shoulder. “Don‘t disappoint me.”
At Stardust Mansion.
Weston seemed to have some memories about the gala that Stella was talking about.
He put down the documents in his hand and looked at her. “You want to go?”
She nodded. “I promised Bradley.”
. The man paused in his actions for a split–second.
Stella seemed to notice something was off with him and immediately walked to him and wrapped her
arms around
his neck. “Don‘t overthink it. We‘re just colleagues.”
When he heard this, he lowered his head and
chuckled before suddenly pinching her nose. “Do I seem that unreasonable to you?“.
Stella pursed her lips, didn‘t say a word, and merely stared at him.
Her eyes, however, told him that he was, indeed, that unreasonable.
Weston stopped laughing , lifted her, and seated her on him.
He was inside the study room with stacks of documents in front of him.
Stella sensed danger and immediately shook his neck.“ It‘s quite late now, so quickly finish your work, o
my ability to work or my ability in bed?”
Was she
that afraid that he would take that much time, till midnight? Did he lack so much self control? She
didn‘t say a word, but she still held that hesitation on her face.
. Seeing her like this made him doubt himself.
No matter how late he worked, he would still have energy for her, and she didn‘t even have to wake
up. However,
there were times when Stella forgot to take her medicine and awoke in the middle of her sleep.
