Chapter 247 Melissa wished she could replace Serenity’s head with her own. Jackson bent down and leaned over. He whispered in Serenity’s ear in a voice that only the two of them could hear, “You were bullied the last time you filmed here, right? Should I help you get revenge today?” Serenity looked at him […]

Chapter 246 Most of the people there did not hear the conversation between Jackson and the director. When they saw Jackson walking towards the group of extras, they could not help whispering and speculating among themselves. Several of the female extras were overjoyed to see Jackson wallding towards them. They put on what they thought was their most lovely smile.  Melissa Zest was naturally one of them. She wished she could just leap into Jackson’s arms. She was even thinking if she should pretend to faint or accidentally stumble into Jackson so that she could start a conversation and get acquainted with him. After all, he was Jackson Valor, a man who could move mountains in Solaria. If she could catch Jackson Valor’s eye, even if she only ended up as his mistress, it would be something that many women could only dream of. Moreover, she heard that Jackson Valor was not that interested in women. His only fiancée died in a car accident more tha three years ago. If she actually managed to seduce Jackson Valor, she might actually be able to marry into the prestigious Valor family. She had always been very confident in her own beauty. She felt that the reason she had not made it big as an actress yet was because she had no connections. That was the reason she had failed all the auditions she had gone to. That was why she had to start with being extras. Melissa started thinking of all kinds of things as she watched Jackson walk closer and closer to her. She swayed a little, ready to pretend to fall into Jackson Valor’s arms when he walked by. Was this not what always happened in movies and TV shows? This was how the female protagonist would start getting involved with the male protagonist! But Jackson suddenly stopped, Melissa watched Jackson smile at Serenity, who was standing in front of her, and ask, “I have time today, so I came to see how you’re doing. Should we go back together after you finish filming this scene? Melissa’s eyes widened in disbelief. So did the extras around Serenity. Some of the extras did not know who Jackson was, but from his demeanor and attire, they could tell that he was a rich young Serenity bit her lip. Everybody was looking at her. It made her feel uncomfortable. She felt like she was an exhibition item on display. “You don’t like me being here?” asked Jackson. “Too… high profile,” she said in a solt voine. “You can’t even stand this much attention? How did you become a lawyer in the past? Besides, weren’t there a lot of eyes on you during the trial?” Jackson joked. Serenity’s eyes dimmed a little. Before she went to prison, she was not afraid of being the center of attention at all. She could still talk eloquently even when there were a thousand pairs of eyes staring at her. But now that she was out of prison, she was scared of being noticed. If it wasn’t because she wanted to earn money to pay off her grandmother’s medical bills as soon as possible, she would not have become an extra: Seeing Serenity looking gloomy with her head hanging low, Jackson realized his mistake and did not continue the topic. He raised his hand and gently rubbed Serenity’s head. Oh my god! He’s rubbing her head! Melissa’s eyes almost popped out. What was their relationship?! Jackson Valor was actually rubbing her head gently!

Chapter 245 Everybody in the crew and cast had to pander to her. Even if Lacas had saved Serenity once, it was only a little incident; no one would offend Aria for an extra. The director told everyone to take their spot, and filming started. When they reached the scene where the extras had to

Chapter 244 ‘Don’t say that, Melly!” Someone chided her. “I’m just stating, a fact,” the woman named Melissa Zest snorted. But it’s also a fact that she just got off a BMW,” another person said. “Maybe she managed to land a rich guy. Some people don’t have any talent, but they know how to seduce men,” said Melissa, her voice filled with jealousy. Last week, she thought Serenity was really unlucky to offend the second female lead, but who could have expected the prince of the entertainment industry to suddenly step forward and carry her all the way to the break room? Melissa was incredibly jealous. She had always dreamed of getting an opportunity like that. Melissa regretted it for days afterwards. If she had known, she would have volunteered when Arla Lewis asked Serenity to demonstrate the kneeling and kowtowing. Although it was humiliating, it won Lucas Gomez’s attention, so it was definitely worth it. Melissa thought the luxury car just now must belong to Lucas Gomez. He must have asked his driver to drive Serenity here. Because of what Melissa said, many of the extras started giving Serenity weird looks. Serenity did not bother explaining not that they would believe her anyway. Besides, it’s not like she’s acquainted with these people. They were free to think what they wanted. She did not feel the need to desperately try to prove her innocence. After all the extras had arrived, Mr. Gray took them to the set. Like last time, Serenity changed into costumes, put on makeup, and waited for her scene, But this time, while waiting, she saw Jenny Hall Jenny did not use a substitute today. She was standing next to the male lead. Serenity stared at Jenny, and Jenny stared back at her. However, Jenny’s eyes.. were not condescending like they were in the past. Instead, it appeared as if she was in deep thought. This puzzled Serenity. She remembered vividly how much Jenny hated her after the car accident. If eyes could kill, Jenny would have killed her a  hundred times over. She thought Jenny would surely seek her out for revenge after she got out of prison, but besides the incident with the ring, Jenny did not do anything else to her. Was it because she was already miserable enough that Jenny did not deign to deal with her anymore? Or was it because of. Jackson Valor? The Shaw family knew about her relationship with Jackson Valor, so surely Jenny would know as well. While Serenity was lost in thought, Aria, who was standing on the other side of the male leal, was looking at Serenity with obvious displeasure. In order to male Serenity come to the set again, she persuaded the director to use the same group of extras as last time to shoot the unfinished sore. They were supposed to shoot the scene last week, but after the incident, Aria did not come to the set for three days straight, so shooting was naturally delayed. However, because she was Laras Gomez’s girlfriend, in one dared to say anything in her. Aria would make sure Serenity suffered today. She wanted to let Serenity understand that she, Aria Lewis, was Lucas Gomez’s girlfriend

Chapter 243  Her face became even redder. She tried her best to move her face away from his fingers, but his fingers followed her like a shadow; she could not avoid them at all. Jackson Valor, stop teasing me,” she said, short of breath. Under the light, her almond–shaped eyes did not look as gloomy as usual; in fact, due to her anger, they looked very spirited. He stared at her eyes in fascination. He had seen many eyes that were prettier, but this was the only pair of eyes that could fascinate him like this. Loolding into her eyes, it made him want to monopolize her gaze. He did not want her to look at other men with those res “What if I’m not teasing you? What if I tell you that I can give you as much money as you want? Would you be willing to put up with me? She could feel the coolness of his touch on her lips, as if his fingertips were continuously taking away her heat. “I’d only take what I earn with my labor,” she said, but she could not stop her heart from beating fast. He must be teasing her, right? Even if he really would give her a lot of money, what kind of price would she have to pay?! Serenity’s almond–shaped eyes stared straight at the handsome face that was ton close to hers.. Jackson stared right back. His eyelashes trembled slightly. Ele suddenly straightened up, freeing her from his shackle. “Okay, we’ll see how you exchange your labor for money then.” His voice returned to being gentle, as if nothing had happened. Serenity was a little surprised. What did he mean by that? The next two days were uneventful. Aria did not come looking for Serenity again. Jackson also did not bring up the topic with her again. She went to work at the sanitation office as usual, but with the Valor family’s driver transporting her to and from work The car he used had changed into the most inconspicuous car the Valor family had, but it was still a BMW worth three to four hundred thousand dollars! For the average person, it was still a very high–end luxury car! Therefore, Serenity still had to get on and off the car 500 meters away from the santation office every day. On her off day, Serenity went to the place where the extras were supposed to gather. The Valor family’s driver drove her there. When she arrived, some of the extras were already waiting there. When Serenity got down from the BMW, the extras all looked stunned. After the car drove away, one of them came up to Serenity and asked curiously, “Are you a young lady from a rich family? Why did you come here in a luxury car? “No way! If she’s from a rich family, there’s no way she would have knelt again and again the last time!” Another person said. Serenity turned around and saw that the person who said that was a good–looking young woman wearing fashionable clothes and fine makeup. Must of the people who worked as extras were divided into two categories: Those who lived in poverty and wanted to cam a bit of extra money, and those who were not in it for the money but for the opportunity to be seen by directors, producers of Investors in order to get into the entertainment industry. This young winan obviously belonged to the latter category.

Chapter 242 But the women were under the illusion that they were being spoiled. Aria took off her sunglasses and glared at Serenity with eyes that looked like they were spitting fire. “Serenity, Lucas is mine!” “You should tell him that, not me,” Serenity replied coldly. “You..” Aria harrumphed and walked away furiously. Since she

Chapter 241 Auta’s face turned stiff. However, she could not afford to get mad right now, so she could only put out her wallet and asked Serenity, “How much?” ly put on a fake smile. She took “$105,” replied Serenity. Aria tookout $200 from her wallet, trying to act generous. “Keep the change. Consider it

1/1 Chapter 240 1/1 Serenity felt like a panda being on display at the zoo. “Hmm? Do you really want me to send you to work?’ he asked again. Her face became even redder. She answered sharply, “No.” She then hastily retreated back to her room and closed the connecting door. Jackson smiled. When he

Chapter 239 “I know.” Aria suppressed the uneasiness in her heart. The only thing she could do now was to go to Serenity and ask her directly. She must find out what the relationship between Serenity and Lucas was! When Serenity came out of the bathroom in the evening, she saw from the gap underneath

Chapter 238 “So far, no one has been able to find out what brand the scart and gloves are. Some people say they might be hand-knitted and custom-made by a famous designer.” Serenity sweared profusely while listening in her co-workers’ discussion. She wondered how they would feel if they knew that she was the one
