Chapter 51: Likeable
Having Jex to lead the way made things easier, but unexpectedly, Jex didn't lead her inside; instead, he walked out. Bella followed him out of the door in confusion before asking, "Where are we going? Isn't Calvin in the office?" Jex didn't pause in front of the elevator but instead turned into the stairwell. The dim lighting made Bella feel a bit dazed, reminding her of the kiss they shared in the stairwell once. It seemed that her feelings for Calvin had slowly begun to change since then. Lost in thought, she heard Jex say, "Calvin's office is on the 26th floor." "Oh." She reflexively responded, then felt something was off. "His office is on the 26th floor?" Were all floors from 26 to 28 part of their company? If so, the scale would be too large, wouldn't it? "The 26th floor is for software development." Bella suddenly realized. Calvin's original profession was software development, and he only ventured into the film and media industry with Jex's cooperation in the past two year

Chapter 52: Stairwell
For Bella, the film and television industry was full of mystery. Previously, she had been just an audience member in front of the television, but now she was about to be watched by others. Naturally, she couldn't help but feel nervous. Women, even when taking a photo, agonize over whether they look good or not, let alone appearing on television. Among the few things she knew, there was one particularly deadly piece of advice: they say the camera adds ten pounds, and normal people turn into fatties. She was worried because which woman wouldn't worry about looking fat? To Calvin, her worry was simply unfounded. Blaming the camera for looking ugly was ridiculous! As for being fat or thin, it had some impact, but how could a person who weighed 100 pounds suddenly become 120 pounds? A slight fluctuation didn't mean much. Besides, when it came to appearing on camera, there were various make-up and lighting techniques to beautify. Why didn't they mention those? Seeing her curiously wanderi

Chapter 53: I Want to Eat Meat
Jex wasn't surprised that Calvin and Bella came to observe. Calvin usually wouldn't bother to watch supporting role auditions, so it must be Bella who wanted to see the excitement and dragged him along. Two more chairs were added, and the four of them sat in a row to watch. Jex glanced at the information in his hand, clicking his tongue incessantly. Bella leaned in curiously, wondering what was so remarkable.Pointing to a section, Jex remarked, "This physique is impressive." He held the resumes submitted by actors, and while height and weight were basic information, measurements beyond that were not required. However, if provided, it usually meant the person had exceptional assets. Well-endowed—interested?Bella glanced at the data and then at the actress in front of the camera, confirming the impressive physique. Fiona also flipped through the resumes, noting that this actress had only done a few small commercials and had minor roles in unknown dramas. She glanced at Jex and quipped

Chapter 54: Got Angry
Bella would be dumb not to understand his meaning. She turned around, hands on his chest, looking up at him with flushed cheeks and a shy expression, "This is the kitchen... Don't mess around, or we won't have dinner tonight."Calvin leaned in and pecked her between the eyebrows, "Just you is enough for me.""You..." Now even her ears were red. She thought her tolerance had increased, but he always managed to push the boundaries. In the kitchen? Doing what she had seen in movies? She couldn't stop him, so she interrupted him between kisses, "Um, let's, let's go to the room... It's, it's not convenient here..."Calvin moved them aside, away from the vegetables and knives, glanced at the shelf, grabbed some honey, and dabbed it on her lips, then smeared some on her chin and all over her chest, much to her confusion.Bella was startled but reflexively licked the honey off her lips. It was sweet! But he made her all sticky! His eyes were like fire, following the path of her tongue, unable

Chapter 55: Sleeping in the Guest Room
Bella stared at her for a long time without saying a word. Although it wasn't quite seven times in one night, achieving seven times in a week with various methods was possible. It wasn't the frequency that was the problem; it was the variety that constantly pushed her limits. Today's approach was just too much, and she couldn't accept it no matter what.Watching Bella's changing expressions across the table, Fiona couldn't fathom what she was thinking. From glaring to several other expressions, it was truly impressive! About to lose her focus again, Fiona spoke up to bring her back to reality. "If you don't tell your confidante the truth, how can your confidante help you with your problems? What's going on?"Did she have a fight with Calvin? How could she be so calm if they had? As far as Fiona understood, a fight would either involve yelling or tearful complaints of injustice. But now... Bella seemed hesitant to speak, blushing and appearing shy. What was this? Wasn't this just showi

Chapter 56: Mr. Calvin's Countermove
Calvin couldn't have dreamt that sleeping in the guest room would happen to him. In his understanding, that's a plot point only found in melodramatic TV shows, especially considering Bella's reason for being mad. If you like to go online, then go. Honestly, he didn't know how to handle the current situation. It seemed like a simple apology wouldn't appease her. Moreover, he had already apologized, and it had no effect whatsoever.To say she was angry wasn't quite accurate. In his opinion, it was more about shyness and discomfort, with a hint of annoyance and wariness, as if he were a pervert about to pounce at any moment. He truly had no response to this. He didn't repeat his apology; he was a man of action and didn't like to just talk. However, this situation was tricky. What action could he take to show that he had closed off those thoughts?She was avoiding him, without a doubt! Just because he was taciturn didn't mean he was stupid. If she avoided, he pursued. There was nothing in

Chapter 57: Someone Up There
Calvin's mother takes care of all aspects of Calvin's life, while his father hardly asks about anything, not even his work. It can only be said that Calvin is too successful and doesn't need his father's attention. However, Calvin's father seemed to be in a good mood today, and the conversation turned to children. He rarely said, "When to have children is a matter for you two as a couple, but I have some ideas for the child's name."Bella had a good obedient expression on her face, but in her heart, she thought, "You're already imagining the child's name. Can we still disobey?"Calvin's father continued, "I think the name 'Rui' is good."Calvin's mother gave him a sideways glance, "You're thinking about the name too early. The child isn't even born yet."Calvin's father chuckled, "It will come sooner or later. I just want to mention it now, so they won't have the name already decided." Looking at the somewhat stiff Bella, he hurriedly said, "Let's eat, let's eat. I just mentioned it,

Chapter 58: Rescuing Beauty
For Bella, the first time exposed to the camera was a realization of her worst fears. She was nervous, extremely nervous, so nervous that her whole body felt stiff! In this reality show, besides the main camera capturing the big scenes, there were also additional cameras on the sidelines, always ready to capture some footage, even during breaks, to be edited into outtakes later. So, every move and gesture on set was under the scrutiny of the camera. If one camera wasn't filming you, you never knew when another might catch you accidentally.Bella was on edge, her nerves stretched to the breaking point. Fiona handed her a bottle of mineral water and subtly blocked the camera with her body. Of course, the attempt to block the camera was futile; the cameraman wasn't a wooden stake, and he would find an angle to shoot from. However, it did make Bella feel slightly more relaxed. She took a sip of water, not because she was thirsty, but because she felt uncomfortable all over. She didn't kno

Chapter 60: Discussing the Script
Bella yawned and slouched in the chair, chatting idly with Fiona, who was also yawning continuously. The entertainment industry was tough. No matter how big of a star you were, if the script required you to get up at 4 a.m., you had to get up. She had only slept past midnight last night and had to wake up before 4 a.m. Exhausting! Why bother with all this when she could have lived comfortably? Being mocked and despised by Emily, so what? She couldn't hear her anyway.She yawned widely, wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes. Such a hassle! According to the script, they, a bunch of idiots, were supposed to spend the night in the mountains, and getting up early was for filming the morning camping scene. Originally just an extra, with last night's incident of falling into the water, her teammates had to show concern for her, adding a few meaningless lines.The assistant bought coffee and sandwiches, and everyone found a place to eat. Bella felt a bit less sleepy as she ate. W
