During the entire afternoon, Apollo remained in a state of extreme shock. He did not know what exactly had spurred his brother to make such a decision. At the same time, Luna was scrolling through twitter while resting from a shoot. When she saw the new trending tag, she was pretty satisfied. The marketing accounts were really sensible and had already uploaded the news about her move. Some nosy citizens had even managed to find their property deed. The discussion online around this topic was harmonious. Her fans praised her to high heavens, which caused the news to trend. [Is this the love between a princess and a prince? I’m so jealous!][Thank you for feeding us Caelus/Luna shippers!][You’re so blessed, Luna! You’re a winner in life!]As Luna read through the comments, her vanity was immensely stroked. An incoming call came. It was from her agent. “Luna, darling, DH has just contacted us. They hope that we can sign the contract for you to be their brand ambassador as
Just as Ruth expected, the tag only trended for the duration of the afternoon before other types of opinions started popping up. [Luna, you’re a kind person. I heard that you’re going to donate sixty million dollars to Ventworth Ravine!][Huh? But there’s been no follow-up about the donation, hasn’t there?][Has she donated? I heard nothing about it!][What’s with that sarcastic tone? What on earth are you trying to say?][We’re just asking. There’s no need for you to go around complaining about it like we stepped on your tail, okay? We’re all Luna’s fans here.]The marketing accounts had been blindly praising Luna in the beginning, but, during the process, they suddenly remembered her donation, which caused another tag to start trending. This time, it was the question whether Luna had donated to Ventworth Ravine. Her fans eagerly defended her by arguing with random bystanders. The arguments grew in size and spurred quite a lot of sparks. Luna’s mood rose up and down like a
Ruth soon picked up. She sounded lazy and relaxed. “‘Lo?”“Ruth, what are you doing?! What good would it do to you to ruin the Goldwell family and Luna’s reputations like that?! Even if I still like you, that love is going to disappear if you continue treating your family and Luna like this!” Caelus’s voice was dark, and his face was twisted from anger. Ruth was not surprised to receive his call. “Isn’t it obvious? You guys stole something from me, and now’s the time to prove whether you’re good enough to keep it! As for whether you like me or not? Heh…”She scoffed and did not say the latter half of her sentence, but her tone was filled with derision and mockery. Caelus sucked in a deep breath and did not expose her “lie”. He only squashed his anger as he spoke to her. “Is that role that important to you? She’s your sister. Why can’t you just give her the role?”“It isn’t. But I’d rather use a new actress than Luna.” Ruth’s voice became cold. Everyone in the Goldwell family w
Once Ruth finished teasing him, she did not pursue the matter of him betraying her. Instead, with a serious face, she asked after his condition and whether he needed to go to the hospital. Apollo felt his wounded heart heal, and he waved his hand in dismissal. After Ruth returned to her bedroom, she went to take a bath. Since she was finally able to clock off work on time and did not have to go to any social gatherings, she took a comfortable, warm bath. It was only after she finished taking her bath that she realized she had forgotten to bring in a set of clothes. When she went to the bathroom, she had been thinking about the bidding for various intellectual works tomorrow. She wanted to buy some, but was worried that Lockton Entertainment could not handle them. Besides, there were other miscellaneous things she had to handle in the company. With her mind focused on them, she forgot the most important step of taking a bath—bringing in a set of clothes. She listened for a
Her pleasant voice rose up at the end due to her question. That one word sounded like a seductive note that made Abel’s heart skip a beat. His pupils dilated further, and his voice became raspy and magnetic. “Join them together. Ask me in full.”Ruth was smart and immediately understood what he wanted after he gave her the hint. She knew that he was satisfied with the way she asked now, and she spoke much more smoothly and naturally this time. “Honey, could you get me a set of clothes? Pretty please with a cherry on top?”She thought that she was being nice and doing whatever Abel wanted to make him happy despite him being unreasonable and causing trouble for her, which made her feel resigned. However, when she said those things out loud, she was stunned. She did not sound like she was trying to make him happy. She sounded like she was acting cute instead. It was just like how Luna acted cute with Caelus…Ew!Disgusting! Blergh!When she saw Abel’s doting look, her cheek
She shut her eyes and reached out blindly for a phone before grabbing and taking a look at it. She had more than ten missed calls, which caused her sleepiness to disappear. Due to disliking being woken up in the morning by her phone ringing, she had chosen to silence it before going to bed. With a frown, she checked her call log. All the calls were from Nathan. She called him back. “What’s up?”Lockton Entertainment was in a mess due to the public’s opinions about their boss’s scandal. Nathan was so busy he was about to go crazy, but he could not contact the person in question at such a crucial time. He sighed in relief when he picked up the phone. “Did you check what’s trending on twitter?”Ruth was puzzled. “I just woke up.”“Go check it.”Ruth removed her phone from her ear and went to twitter, only to realize that her name was part of a trending tag. #CaelusRuth#Her eyelids twitched. Yesterday, that b*stard and his b*tch were exposed for buying a mansion, and all th
After Ruth took over Lockton Entertainment, she did a purge of the staff, and she had to practically rebuild the company from scratch. The company’s operations might seem to be on track now, but, in truth, she did not have enough staff. The company was already struggling to keep up with Grand Empire in managing the Gate to the Heart. “Also, are you sure you want to bring Marcus along?”Marcus was the one who had recommended Luna to act as Remilia Walton. His stance and convictions were clear. Nathan would not comment on the fact that Ruth did not punish him for it, but why was she still going to use him?“Naturally, it’s because there’s no one else more suited for it than him,” Ruth answered.Nathan did not ask any further questions, but he was still worried. “And you said you’ll think of something to deal with the trending tag?”“You might not know this, but I was the one who dealt with all of Rising Star’s public relations problems in the past. Caelus isn’t actually good enou
At that moment, she saw a familiar face appear at the entrance. He was dressed in a suit and leather shoes that made him seductive, but also like someone who could perfectly suppress his desires. Behind him was a group of people dressed in black, who looked like assistants. Beside him was Joseph Hansford. Joseph held a briefcase and walked half a step behind him. The people in the hall became a little quieter at their arrival. Everyone was curious about who the man was. Why was Joseph so respectful toward him?Ruth was stunned when she saw this lineup, but understanding soon lit up in her eyes. Abel was part of the Blakewell family, so he could never be just a normal member of Grand Empire’s upper management. It was likely that Joseph was somewhat serious when he and Abel did their role play thing. But why would Abel come to the bidding?He never mentioned it before. She took out her phone and sent a message over. [Why are you here?]Abel did not reply to her. The bidd
