    Chapter 1481-1490


    The fans consumed every piece of information avable, even though they were only scraps. Anything


    for Julian, they’d say.


    The couple flew back to Averna the next day. Jessie invited Eva to shop and have tea. Then, she and


    Queenie returned home to see their parents. Eventually, it was time for Eva’s wedding. The news of it


    was a bombshell for the industry as Eva was really famous while her husband was the boss of the


    industry’s leadingpany. Yet, they didn’t invite too many people to their wedding. If they were to


    invite everyone they knew, they would need a venue that could house at least two thousand guests.


    Hence, they nned to hold a low-profile wedding. Eva didn’t mind. She never liked to brag about her


    life anyway.


    The wedding happened one weekter. Julian and Jessie were invited, of course, but only as guests.


    Eva had asked her best friend to be the bridesmaid. Louie looked dashing during the wedding, and Eva


    looked gorgeous in white. This was a wedding most people could only dream of—a picturesque


    wedding of a prince and a princess. Eva was the center of everyone’s attention, and Louie expressed


    all the love he had for her. It was true love.


    Jessie and Julian were seated at the first table, their hands sped together tightly under the table.


    The ceremony kept going on until night descended. It was a sacred day that nobody would forget, and


    then everyone attended the wedding reception at night. Jessie had changed into a white silk dress


    which she specifically picked for the asion. It made her gleam like a little fairy.


    The fans consumed every piece of information avable, even though they were only scraps. Anything


    for Julian, they’d say.


    It was then all the guests realized the Gilmore brothers had both found the loves of their lives.


    It was then all the guests realized the Gilmore brothers had both found the loves of their lives.


    Eva’s wedding went viral. There weren’t many pictures of the event, but the few they had made a big


    ripple across the Net. Her fans loved how she looked, and they thought her husband was the perfect


    man for her.


    Eventually, the wedding came to an end, and soon it was Christmas Eve. Louie and Eva had gone on


    their honeymoon abroad, so Julian was invited to the Silversteins’ ce during Christmas. The


    Silverstein couple would love to marry Jessie off to him.


    Julian noticed their warm wee. It was very hard not to. Jessie wanted to spend more time with her


    parents at night, but her mother told her to spend it with Julian instead. She even told Jessie there


    would be no breakfast for her the next morning since they had ces to go.


    Jessie didn’t mind staying with Julian. In fact, she would dly do it. Now that her mother was giving


    her an excuse to leave the house, she followed Julian back to his home.


    Another important event of her life would take ce the next night—her first movie premiere. The


    excitement kept her awake. She had also seen a lot of the movie’s promotional photos making their


    rounds online. It was then she realized she had been looking at Julian like he was her whole world. And


    Julian, unlike most of the time, was smiling as well.


    That’s the power of love. Only when he was with someone whom he loved would Julian crack a smile.


    Jessie also noticed something else. When she first joined the set, she would only steal nces at


    Julian. Her love was budding, yet she had not the courage to say it out loud. She also noticed a few


    photos where Julian was getting jealous. Oh, I love these photos. They detail my memories with him.


    Our memories.


    She fell asleep eventually, but she woke up a littleter. Groggily, she picked her phone up to look at


    the time. Julian had woken up as well, and he hugged her. “It’s still early. Get back to sleep.”


    “I can’t.” Oh my gosh, it’s already five-thirty in the morning. She was still yawning, but sleep wouldn’t


    im her.


    Julian got up as well, and they stared outside the window for a moment. The skies were still dark. He


    said, “I’ll take you around. It should freshen us up, then let’s have breakfast.”


    “How about you sleep here? I’ll take the couch so that I won’t disturb your sleep.” Jessie was


    embarrassed because she was too excited to fall asleep but knew she shouldn’t disturb his sleep.


    However, the man reached over and pulled her into his embrace. “Why don’t we do some exercising?”


    “Sure! Now? The sky is still quite dark. Why don’t we wait a bit?” Jessie asked with a serious


    expression.


    The man burst outughing. “The exercise I’m referring to doesn’t need us to head downstairs.”


    Immediately getting what he meant, Jessie blushed and buried herself in the man’s arms, unable to


    reject his request. Lord, men were generally the most lustful in the morning.


    In the end, Jessie couldn’t stand her drowsiness despite her excitement. The man had worn her out.


    When she woke up again, it was already 11.00AM. Julian had ordered food for her so they could leave


    for the premiere in the afternoon.


    Jessie wore a cute yellow sweater with a small cap over her long hair, making her look cute and


    innocent. On the other hand, Julian was wearing a mask with casual clothes, but when he was walking


    on the street, he attracted everyone’s attention with his model-like figure.


    The two invited Lexie and her boyfriend to the movie premiere as well.


    As Jessie was in high spirits, she felt her heart constantly thumping rapidly inside her chest as she held


    Julian’s hand.


    When the premiere finally began, they saw Gilmore Corporation’s eye-catching and astonishing


    promotional logo on the big screen, followed by the movie’s opening. The special effects used in the


    movie were excellent, resulting in a very realistic mythical world. Also, her and Julian’s names


    appearing together under the “Main Cast” section looked domineering and eye-catching.


    “How about you sleep here? I’ll take the couch so that I won’t disturb your sleep.” Jessie was


    embarrassed because she was too excited to fall asleep but knew she shouldn’t disturb his sleep.


    Jessie felt her heartbeat speed up again as she looked at her name, feeling like this was just a dream.


    Jessie felt her heartbeat speed up again as she looked at her name, feeling like this was just a dream.


    Eva’s name appeared soon after theirs. The 3D effect used was brilliant and gave the viewers a sense


    that they had been transported inside the movie and were taking a real trip into the mystical world.


    During the movie, Jessie could hear the sounds of gasps and exmations inside the hall, obviously


    indicating that they were astonished by the special effects.


    She could only apud the production crew for their wealth and capability. She felt like she could


    watch these special effects all day!


    Following that, a young celestial servant appeared on the screen. While Jessie watched the elegant


    immortal she yed, she thought her features looked very delicate under the great camera movements


    and lighting. It was as if she were a real, unrealistically beautiful young immortal.


    “Oh, heavens! Isn’t that Jessie? She looks so beautiful.” A young woman sitting behind Jessie


    eximed in excitement.


    Jessie had dubbed her the voice of her character herself and wasn’t expecting her voice to sound so


    gentle and engaging. Her tone sounded clear and prative, and her every expression imbued the


    crowd.


    Meanwhile, Julian was also attracted by the image of his wife on screen and couldn’t help but praise


    himself for having such a good eye and choosing her to be the female protagonist.


    Although filming was difficult, watching the beautiful scenes made Jessie feel that all her efforts were


    worth it.


    On the screen, Jessie looked cute and slightly mischievous. It wasn’t until she watched herself getting


    beaten up and thrown out like a sandbag that she felt Julian’s Demon Lord, the male protagonist, was


    exceptionally handsome!


    She couldn’t help but let out a few exmations while clutching Julian’s hand tightly. “You’re so


    handsome.”


    Turning to look at her, Julian kissed her forehead and cooed, “I’m yours.”


    That moment, Jessie smiled so brightly that she squinted her eyes into slits. Yes, he’s mine. No matter


    how handsome he is, he’s mine.


    Screams echoed throughout the entire movie hall.


    It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that all the screams came from women. Julian was already used to it,


    but Jessie, just like his fans, was madly infatuated with him.


    Back on screen, the young immortal servant fell into Demon Lord’s arms, and a shocking love story


    began.


    After the movie ended, Jessie and Julian came out of the hall with their masks on and saw many


    excited fans standing outside, seemingly still immersed in the movie.


    They kept praising the movie while walking away.


    At this moment, Jessie and Julian were inside an elevator. Julian had his hood on while Jessie hugged


    him tightly, snuggling her face in his chest.


    The four young women who just came in had been busy chatting with each other since they were in the


    courtyard. They didn’t pay any attention to the couple already inside the elevator and continued to talk


    loudly.


    “The two of them looked so good together! I kept fangirling over them throughout the whole movie. How


    I wish they were together in real life as well!”


    “I heard that they are a real couple!”


    “I wonder if that’s true, but they have my blessing anyway! I used to dislike Jessie, but now I


    understand the hype about her beauty. She’s indeed born to be a protagonist.”


    “Isn’t she? I think so too. Gosh! Did you guys see how handsome Julian was? He never fails to steal


    women’s hearts. Whoever has him as her boyfriend must be the luckiest person ever!”


    “I wish I could switch ces with Jessie. This way, I could kiss him!”


    Meanwhile, Jessie could feel the man she hugged freeze for a moment and almost burst outughing.


    She then nced over at the young woman who said she wanted to kiss Julian. The young woman


    wore a cute outfit that suited her slightly plump figure. Unsurprisingly, she spoke her mind so openly


    and didn’t care what others thought of her.


    When they finally came out of the elevator and headed toward Julian’s car, Jessie suddenly smiled and


    hugged Julian’s arm while skipping. “What were you so nervous about?”


    At this moment, Jessie and Julian were inside an elevator. Julian had his hood on while Jessie hugged


    him tightly, snuggling her face in his chest.


    Julian caressed her head while saying, “You know the answer.”


    Julian caressed her head while saying, “You know the answer.”


    “Did your fans scare you? It seems they ept our rtionship!” Jessie eximed joyously.


    Stopping, Julian took her hands and reassured her, “You don’t have to worry about how others feel


    about you. What’s important is our love for each other.”


    Jessie blinked a few times and nodded in agreement, but the words those fans said still made her


    happy inside.


    “I know that. No matter what happens, we will stay with each other.” Jessie wrapped her arms around


    Julian’s neck and stood on her toes to nt a kiss on his cheek.


    She thought, Julian looks so handsome. No wonder other women are head over heels for him. He


    looks super attractive on-screen and can make anyone’s heart flutter with just one action. Tonight, he


    managed to charm everyone through the big screen, so much so that the whole ce was filled with


    screams. With the help of the amazing special effects, his portrayal of the Demon Lord seemed very


    realistic. Even when he raised his eyebrow or his head, or even made a move with his hand, it looked


    so handsome that it made everyone scream.


    “Let’s head home!” Jessie’s eyes looked shy, and she thought, Perhaps this is a side effect of watching


    the movie. I want to have him entirely tonight.


    “Why do you want to head home?” Julian seemed to have guessed her thoughts but still wanted to


    tease her.


    While hiding her face in his chest, she urged, “Do something naughty. Come on, let’s go!”


    Hearing that, Julian burst outughing and brought her over to the car before speeding back home to


    do the naughty thing she mentioned.


    The next morning, Jessie and Julian arrived at thepany together. Vincent and the few producers


    were there because they had to attend an advertising campaign to promote the movieter in the


    afternoon.


    “Julian, after our careful consideration, we decided not to let you and Jessie appear at the event


    together. I’m sure you know the reason, right? You have too many female fans, and we’re worried


    about box office sales.”


    “Impossible. We have to appear on stage together,” Julian immediately refused.


    “We are just worried about the movie not selling well! After all, this is Jessie’s first movie, and it would


    be bad if the movie sales weren’t good!”


    “That’s right! Julian, just bear with it for a while. You and Jessie will head to different event sites at the


    same time, so in a way, you guys are still promoting the movie together!”


    When Jessie heard the others’ suggestions, she joined them in persuading him, “I think Director


    Cooper is right. The investment for this movie is sorge that it might have quite a huge effect if the


    fans refuse to buy our rtionship had we made it public.”


    Julian could ignore everyone else’s words except Jessie’s. He then asked unhappily, “Why can’t we


    appear together on stage?”


    Jessie nced at him and squinted her eyes while pleading, “Just listen to what Director Cooper says!”


    “Fine!” Julian finally agreed.


    Seeing that, Vincent and the others felt relieved. It seemed like the only person who could persuade


    Julian was Jessie.


    Later, Jessie had her makeup done at thepany and put on a custom-made dress. She appeared at


    the event venue inside the shopping mall at 3.00PM. Her skin looked as fair as glistening snow, and


    her ck, straight hair looked stunning and smooth.


    When she and Julian separated at thepany, Julian personally saw her off until they reached the


    car. Right before she got in, she seized the opportunity to kiss him. Then, Julian reminded her, “Be


    careful, and call me if anything happens.”


    “Alright.”


    “If the emcee asks you something you don’t want to answer, you can refuse to answer it.”


    Since Jessie had never attended any advertising campaigns, she was quite nervous. She nodded in


    agreement. “Alright then! I’ll keep that in mind. You should hurry up and get ready too!”


    Afterward, Julian closed the door and watched her car leave.


    On the road, Jessie’s manager, Sera, mentioned many things to Jessie and even showed her the


    answers to some potential questions. Sera also told Jessie that the emcee would ask questions


    ording to these questions and answers, so Jessie only had to answer them ording to the given


    answers. Jessie nced at him and squinted her eyes while pleading, “Just listen to what Director


    Cooper says!”


    Therefore, Jessie memorized all those answers while going to the venue, wanting to remember them


    all.


    Therefore, Jessie memorized all those answers while going to the venue, wanting to remember them


    all.


    “Sera, I’m so nervous. What should I do? This is the first time I’m promoting a movie. What if I get


    stage fright and stammer on stage?” Jessie asked Sera.


    “Don’t worry. Fabian will be there as well. You can let him answer if you’re not sure how to. He’s more


    experienced in these things.”


    Jessie nodded, still feeling so nervous that her hands were sweating. Since she had gone to watch the


    movie premiere yesterday, she was confident in her work. Moreover, the movie rating skyrocketed to


    9.6 right after the premiere, which was considerably high.


    Meanwhile, back at thepany, Julian and a few veteran actors would be heading to the event


    together, but since the venue was not far from where they were, thepany hadn’t arranged for them


    to leave.


    Julian was sitting at the cafe in the lobby, feeling worried the more he thought about Jessie heading to


    the advertising campaign alone. What if she gets too nervous? What if the emcee asks her difficult


    questions? What if someone thinks she and Fabian are a couple?


    A lot of questions filled Julian’s mind, and his heart began thumping wildly. In the end, he stood up and


    looked at Vincent before blurting out, “I’m not going there anymore.” Once he said that, he grabbed his


    keys and speed walked out.


    “Hey! Julian, where are you going? It’s almost time for the event. How can you walk out on us?”


    Vincent ran after him.


    However, Julian had already disappeared from the lobby. He dashed toward his car and got inside


    before speeding toward the shopping mall where Jessie would be attending the advertising campaign.


    In the meantime, Jessie arrived at the shopping mall and entered the green room through the


    employee-only passage. Fabian was already dressed handsomely and was waiting for her. When their


    gazes met, they smiled at each other.


    “Oh my gosh! Jessie, you look so pretty today!” Fabian sincerely praised.


    “You also look very handsome!” Jessie smiled and praised back.


    “Don’t be nervous on stage. If you don’t want to answer the questions, you can just leave them to me.”


    “Sure. Thank you.”


    When Jessie and Fabian finally got on stage, Jessie found that she had underestimated the number of


    fans that came to the event. All she saw was a sea of ck filling the entire ground floor of the


    shopping mall, as well as fans peering down from above!


    Feeling nervous, Jessie pursed her lips while her hands, which were holding the microphone, started


    sweating.


    “Alright. Let’s invite both actors to introduce themselves.” The emcee was a man, and he was the kind


    that looked crafty at first nce.


    Fabian very naturally introduced himself, followed by Jessie, who took a deep breath before introducing


    herself. “Hello everyone, I’m Jessie Silverstein. I y Estelle in Fallen Heaven. I hope everyone enjoys


    my performance.”


    “Whoa! She’s so beautiful!”


    “Her skin is so smooth and fair. It looks like it’s glowing!”


    Seeing the fans below her eyeing her, Jessie was still suppressing her nervousness, but then she


    thought she might be even more nervous when the emcee started asking questions.


    As she expected, the emcee began by asking questions about the storyline. After a few questions, he


    began steering off course and asking private questions that fans were curious about.


    “Jessie, you’re new to this industry, right? Everyone must not know you that well, so can you answer a


    few questions from the fans?”


    “Sure, go ahead!” Jessie smiled and replied.


    “Who’s your first kiss?”


    Jessie was stunned. Can I tell them the answer? However, she cleverly asked, “Are you referring to the


    movie? Of course, it’s our male protagonist.”


    “No, I’m not. We’re more curious about your private life!”


    “About that… I’m sorry, but it’s not convenient for me to answer that question.”


    “Sure. If that’s too difficult for you, how about this one? How many past boyfriends have you dated?


    Just tell us the number.” The male emcee began to ask tricky questions. Fabian very naturally


    introduced himself, followed by Jessie, who took a deep breath before introducing herself. “Hello


    everyone, I’m Jessie Silverstein. I y Estelle in Fallen Heaven. I hope everyone enjoys my


    performance.”


    Meanwhile, the fans were all looking forward to the answer, wanting to know the number of past


    boyfriends the new rising actress had dated.


    Meanwhile, the fans were all looking forward to the answer, wanting to know the number of past


    boyfriends the new rising actress had dated.


    Jessie stuck out one finger and said, “One.”


    “Whoa! Why don’t you tell us about your standards when choosing your future boyfriend or husband?


    Would you prefer a tall and handsome yboy or a gentle and caring man?”


    In Jessie’s mind, she answered, I don’t mean to brag, but my boyfriend is not only tall and handsome


    but also gentle and caring too!


    “I…” Jessie suddenly didn’t know how to rephrase her words to make them sound less like she was


    bragging.


    “How about we do it this way? Among all the male celebrities in the entertainment industry, who do you


    think is your dream boyfriend?” When the emcee saw the crowd growing more excited, he began to


    probe deeper into Jessie’s private life.


    “We’re here to promote our movie, so let’s keep these private questions unanswered for suspense!”


    Fabian tried to help.


    “The fans like Jessie very much! That’s why we’re all curious and want to know her better.” The emcee


    chuckled, not intending to let Jessie go.


    The question was a hard one to answer because Vincent had asked Jessie not to reveal her


    rtionship with Julian.


    Just as everyone was waiting for Jessie’s answer, a figure strode up from beside the stage. The man


    took off his hood and mask, revealing his identity. Then, Julian approached Jessie and took away her


    microphone.


    At that moment, Jessie was stunned while the fans below were screaming at the top of their lungs,


    thinking, Oh my gosh! It’s Julian! He’s here!


    “Let me answer that question on behalf of my girlfriend! Of course, her dream boyfriend would be me.”


    After saying that, he hugged Jessie’s shoulder, indicating his identity.


    At that instant, the crowd below the stage was in an uproar.


    Julian had openly revealed his rtionship with Jessie, which was beyond their expectations. There


    was no need for any evidence because they all knew it was confirmed just by looking at Julian’s gentle


    eyes that were on Jessie.


    Meanwhile, the emcee had a stiff smile on his face. He coughed softly and tried to control the situation.


    “It seems like Mr. Gilmore does deserve the title of best male actor!”


    Jessie leaned toward his ear and whispered, “Why are you here? Aren’t you supposed to be at another


    event?”


    “I’m worried about you!” Julian lowered his body and responded softly beside her ear.


    “Director Cooper is going to be furious.”


    “I don’t care as long as it makes me happy.”


    “Why you…” Jessie stared at him coquettishly, while Julian looked back at her while smiling. At this


    moment, his fans could only see his side profile because all his attention was on Jessie!


    Many young women in the crowd were extremely jealous as they watched the man whom they idolized


    reveal his rtionship with Jessie. It was like a pang in their hearts!


    “If there are no other questions, let’s wrap up this event!” Once Julian finished his words, he gave the


    microphone to one of the staff and left hand-in-hand with Jessie.


    When she descended the stage, many fans squeezed toward her. At that, Julian immediately pulled her


    into his arms to shield her from the crowd, hugging her figure so she would not get squeezed.


    Meanwhile, the bodyguards immediately came over and guided them toward the green room.


    Like both of them had guessed, Vincent was so furious that his mustache curled up, resembling a


    handlebar mustache. Julian had abandoned his scheduled advertising campaign and gone to Jessie’s


    campaigning venue. As if he thought Vincent had not had enough, he publicized their rtionship!


    They had invested giant funds in this movie, and they no longer had any high hopes for it. Instead, all


    they were hoping was that they could break even.


    Meanwhile, the couple’s announcement had spread like wildfire on the Inte and even caused a


    network to crash.


    Julian, the most brilliant man in the entertainment industry, was suddenly revealed to be taken. How


    could his fans not be saddened by such news?


    Therefore, a rise ofizens imed they would not be supporting them. Many of his female fans


    mored to announce that they would boycott the movie as well. Just as they had expected, the


    loudest protest came from the female fans. Many young women in the crowd were extremely jealous as


    they watched the man whom they idolized reveal his rtionship with Jessie. It was like a pang in their


    hearts!


    When Julian brought Jessie back to thepany, Vincent was furious but did not dare to throw a fit.


    Not only that, but he even had an ufortable time suppressing his anger. “Julian, didn’t we reach an


    agreement earlier? Can’t you bear with it just for a while? What you did will only cause a huge impact


    on our movie and affect the box office sales.”


    When Julian brought Jessie back to thepany, Vincent was furious but did not dare to throw a fit.


    Not only that, but he even had an ufortable time suppressing his anger. “Julian, didn’t we reach an


    agreement earlier? Can’t you bear with it just for a while? What you did will only cause a huge impact


    on our movie and affect the box office sales.”


    Julian did notment while Jessieforted Vincent. “Director Cooper, don’t be mad. Here, have


    some tea and cool down.”


    Following that, Vincent epted the tea and drank it. Since he was still angry, he choked on the tea


    and began coughing fiercely, clutching his chest.


    “Oh, no! Director Cooper, are you alright?” She immediately reached out and patted his back in


    concern. Did we trigger his sickness or something?


    “I choked on the tea,” he exined bitterly before looking at Julian with a defeated expression. I can’t


    scold him, nor can I beat him up, and I even have to think twice before saying anything lest I want to


    lose my job. This is so exasperating.


    “Vincent, stop worrying! As for the box office sales, let’s leave it to fate!” Julian spoke some words of


    concern before turning to Jessie. “Let’s go home!”


    She nodded and assured Vincent, “Director Cooper, there is nothing to worry about. The movie is


    amazing.”


    Vincent admired her utter calmness in this situation, but it was not unexpected. Even if her first movie


    ended as a disaster, she still had her identity as Mrs. Julian Gilmore, so her situation would not be any


    worse than the other celebrities.


    In the meantime, Jessie and Julian arrived outside the parking lot. Several ck MPVs parked on the


    side, and dozens of reporters were waiting for them to appear before surrounding the two.


    “Mr. Gilmore! Are you and Miss Silverstein dating?”


    “When are you getting married?”


    “When did you guys start dating?”


    “Miss Silverstein, are you pregnant?”


    Jessie was taken aback by that question, but she still politely waved her hand and denied being


    pregnant. “No, I’m not. We’re not thinking of having children at the moment.”


    Julian held her hand and turned to look at the bodyguards, who immediately came over and shielded


    them until they entered the car.


    Inside the vehicle, she noticed that the reporters had no intentions of leaving and were constantly


    tapping on the car.


    “I feel sorry for Director Cooper.” She sighed.


    He reached over and held her hand. “How about you? Are you worried about the box office sales?”


    After giving it some serious thought, she answered, “No. I’m not worried about your fans boycotting the


    movie either because I’m your fan too. Perhaps, I would feel disappointed after knowing you’re taken,


    but that doesn’t stop me from liking you! So, yes, I’ll still watch your movie.” She was exining things


    from a fan’s point of view.


    Once she finished her exnation, she hugged the man’s waist while saying joyously, “To be honest, I


    was extremely shocked and touched when you stepped on stage today.”


    Julian rubbed his forehead against hers while reassuring her, “Wherever you are, that’s where I want to


    be!”


    In the meantime, the public rtions department at Gilmore Corporation was working overtime today,


    helping Julian manage thements. Since he had already announced his rtionship, they could


    only give their rtionship more publicity.


    What was more, Julian’s action of ditching his campaign to make a sudden appearance at Jessie’s


    today was enough to touch many.


    Soon, someone posted his schedule of the day, proving that he loved her dearly and leading the fans to


    ept them.


    As expected, Gilmore Corporation’s public rtions department was phenomenal at directing public


    opinion and managed to convince his fans. Many of them had even begun giving the couple their


    blessings.


    Moreover, the movie was due to premiere on the first day of the new year, and the entire production


    crew felt like they were sitting on pins and needles. During that time, it was said that Vincent was


    admitted to the hospital because of insomnia, which stemmed from his awful mood and anxiety.


    On New Year’s Eve, Julian and Jessie had a family dinner at the Gilmore Residence before heading to


    the hospital to visit him.


    By now, Vincent had given up and decided not to panic about it. However, this was the first movie that


    rendered him insecure in his years of directing. He had prepared numerous special effects that would


    be used in the movie before it even began shooting, which showed how much dedication he put into


    this film. Once she finished her exnation, she hugged the man’s waist while saying joyously, “To be


    honest, I was extremely shocked and touched when you stepped on stage today.”


    “Julian, I’m only left with one belief—to believe you. I trust that with your poprity, the ticket sales


    won’t be terrible.” He held Julian’s hand while saying that.


    “Julian, I’m only left with one belief—to believe you. I trust that with your poprity, the ticket sales


    won’t be terrible.” He held Julian’s hand while saying that.


    “Don’t worry! If the ticket sales are awful, I’ll put in a good word for you so that Louie won’t fire you,”


    Julian teased.


    Jessie, who was beside them, was originally feeling sympathetic toward Vincent, but she could not help


    but burst outughing when she heard what Julian said. “You’ll know the answer tomorrow, so just go


    on with your day!” she assured him.


    At night, Julian brought Jessie to a ce where they could enjoy the countdown. The two enjoyed the


    fireworks illuminating the sea with candlelight and red wine.


    Later in the night, she saw someone posting the same fireworks on social media, to which the


    comments were asking, ‘I heard that this fireworks disy was arranged by a wealthy man to make his


    girlfriend happy. I’m curious who that lucky woman is and how she feels having someone light fireworks


    above the sea for an hour.’


    When Jessie read thement, she could not help but think, I didn’t expect I could enjoy the fireworks


    a rich man prepared for his girlfriend!


    Feeling curious, she ran over to Julian and showed him her phone. “How did you know there would be


    a rich man lighting the fireworks for his girlfriend there? Was it your friend?”


    After watching the video, he went silent for a moment before answering, “The rich man is me, and


    you’re the girlfriend.”


    She was speechless and stunned for a few seconds. What? It was for me all along?


    “So, it’s you! Are those fireworks for me?” Jessie was touched beyond words. She would never have


    dreamt that Julian was such a romantic and that she could be part of the experience. Smooch! With a


    smile, she hugged and kissed him. “Thank you, my dear Mr. Gilmore.”


    He reached out to embrace her. “Now that the fireworks are done, shouldn’t we be heading home so


    that you can thank me properly?”


    She knew he was up to no good just by looking at him, so she nodded shyly. “Sure, let’s go home!”


    Inside the car, she smiled sweetly when she found more videos on social media and saw that many


    were jealous of the woman who received the fireworks disy. The one being envied by all is me!


    Right after midnight, the cinemas showing Julian’stest movie were packed, and the box office sales


    were consistently on top in just one day. To that, Vincent was utterly delighted. Not only was I worried


    for nothing, but the movie is also a hit with a high review score!


    A weekter, the movie broke the box office record for this quarter, reaching ticket sales of over one


    billion while still rising.


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    On the seventh night of the new year, Vincent happily invited everyone in the production crew to a good


    meal, and whoever was free attended the gathering. Since Julian and Jessie had dered their


    rtionship, they went there together without caring about public scrutiny.


    “Director Cooper, the box office sales are beyond our imaginations! This is amazing.”


    “That’s right! The results have surpassed my expectations, and Jessie is made popr by the movie.”


    She was also ted at the results, but she was not looking forward to acting anymore because she


    knew she would not have been interested in participating if Julian had not been the male protagonist.


    Therefore, she decided that she would focus on being Mrs. Gilmore from then on!


    “As of now, we should be looking forward to the award ceremony that is going to be held in three


    months. I think Julian and Jessie will win a few grand awards.”


    Of course, Jessie was looking forward to the award ceremony. It would mean a lot to her if she could


    win a trophy.


    Despite not being a casual drinker, she decided to try all sorts of alcohol, including white wine, red


    wine, and cocktails for this great asion. When Julian returned from his trip to the bathroom, she was


    already drunk.


    “No one is to toast her again.” He was a little worried, so he warned the others.


    A few who did not have the chance to toast with Jessie eventually gave up on the idea. Just watching


    Julian dote on his wife was enough for them to feel jealous of her!


    A weekter, the movie broke the box office record for this quarter, reaching ticket sales of over one


    billion while still rising.


    It seemed like she must have done a lot in her previous life to be able to be his girlfriend. Perhaps


    during herst lifetime, she spent all her days gathering merits, which was why she could meet Julian


    in this lifetime and get pampered like a child.


    It seemed like she must have done a lot in her previous life to be able to be his girlfriend. Perhaps


    during herst lifetime, she spent all her days gathering merits, which was why she could meet Julian


    in this lifetime and get pampered like a child.


    “I’m not drunk. I’m perfectly sober!” Jessie stubbornly argued while raising her chin and taking the


    initiative to raise her ss. “Let me give a toast to all of you. Thank you all for taking such good care of


    me on set.”


    Following that, everyone raised their sses and responded to her. Only the man sitting beside her


    looked frustrated and grabbed her ss away when she raised it to her lips before downing it himself.


    She blinked her huge eyes, utterly confused. Why is this guy stealing my drink?


    “That’s all for today! Everyone, please head back early and get some rest.” Once Julian finished his


    words, he rose to his feet and was ready to leave. I’m bringing her home and never letting her drink


    alcohol again.


    “No. I don’t want to go home.” Jessie was having fun with others and still wanted to be with them.


    “We’re going karaoketer! Young Master Julian, would you like to join us?” one of the female


    assistants asked senselessly.


    When Jessie, whom Julian had just pulled into his embrace, heard they were going to karaoke, she


    immediately raised her hand. “I do. I wanna go!”


    “No, you can’t,” he ordered.


    “I don’t want to go home, so I must go karaoke. Julian, please!” Since Jessie was drunk, she acted like


    a child and was more stubborn than usual.


    The female assistant immediately sensed that she should not have said that and looked terrified as she


    looked at him.


    “Do you want to go?” In the end, Julianpromised.


    “Yes, I want to. I want to hear you sing.” With lips curled into a smile, Jessie looked at him expectantly.


    “Fine! Let’s go!” He agreed to her request, resulting in the assistant’s relief.


    Oh my gosh. That was so terrifying. I thought I would get scolded by Young Master Julian for sure.


    Subsequently, Jessie leaned half of her weight against Julian as they walked out of the restaurant.


    When they entered the car, she was still in high spirits and was looking forward to hearing him sing


    later.


    At that moment, Harper yed a song on the radio, which was Jessie’s favorite. Since the alcohol


    boosted her courage, she was not reserved anymore and began singing along to the radio. Her voice


    filled the car as she sang excitedly.


    While looking at the woman beside him, Julian decided that she was not allowed to drink alcoholic


    drinks when he was not around.


    Her current behavior was not only lovely but also sexy. Her hair was tied behind her head, revealing


    her charming face rich with emotions and a sense of rebellion.


    Julian was not sure how many times he had gulped. I shouldn’t have agreed to let her go karaoke.


    Instead, I should have brought her home so that she could exert her excitement on me.


    If he were to change his mind now, she would probably throw a tantrum, so he could only suppress his


    urge and apany her to the karaoke.


    When they arrived at the luxurious private room, they began to choose a few songs to sing. Jessie and


    a female assistant chose the song she had been singing inside the car earlier, and they both piped


    happily. Since her voice already sounded pleasant to the ears, it sounded even more melodious when


    she sang. However, she was a little tone-deaf and was singing off-key.


    Julian’s lips curled into a smile without him knowing, and the affection in his eyes was unmistakable


    when he looked at her.


    After the song ended, shyness overcame her, probably because she had sobered up a little. She then


    raced over to Julian and sat beside him. He snaked his long arms around her waist, which made her


    look up at him to ask, “What song would you like to sing?”


    At that moment, the female assistant came over and notified them, “I’ve selected a song for Young


    Master Julian.”


    Hearing that, Jessie nodded in anticipation. “Okie!” By now, she had indeed sobered up and was


    listening to the others sing. Then, her eyesnded on the beer ss on the table before she reached


    over.


    Immediately, the man beside her enveloped her in his embrace while refusing in his raspy voice. “You


    can’t drink anymore tonight!”


    She turned to look at him with pitiful eyes and knew she could not drink anymore. Following that, he


    grabbed a ss of water and handed it to the girl, who drank it obediently like a child with strict


    parents.


    Julian was not sure how many times he had gulped. I shouldn’t have agreed to let her go karaoke.


    Instead, I should have brought her home so that she could exert her excitement on me.


    Finally, it was Julian’s turn to sing. The assistant had chosen a romantic song, and it made everyone’s


    heart flutter as he descanted in his attractive voice.


    Finally, it was Julian’s turn to sing. The assistant had chosen a romantic song, and it made everyone’s


    heart flutter as he descanted in his attractive voice.


    Meanwhile, Jessie was immersed in his voice. She previously listened to the soundtrack for his movie


    that he sang, and she loved every second of it. I put him on rey all the time! He’s such an all-


    rounded artist!


    “Jessie, go give Young Master Julian a hug!” Lexie nudged her.


    Hearing that, she could not help but feel shy while heading over to embrace him. In reciprocation, he


    held her hand and looked at her gently while finishing the rest of the song. Her heart fluttered, and she


    felt extremely shy yet touched.


    Once he finished his karaoke, both of them returned to their seats.


    On their way home, Jessie leaned into Julian’s arm while relishing her pleasant day. The good news


    was that their movie left the other movies dusty in box office sales and acquired a highly satisfactory


    result.


    That night, thest of her drunken state was left for her man, for she was even more seductive than


    usual. It was not until 2.00AM that they finally stopped their activities.


    Early the following morning, she received a call from Queenie, who invited the couple to her house.


    In the afternoon, both couples were sitting opposite each other while enjoying a pleasant lunch.


    Queenie had an obvious pregnancy vibe, and her baby bump was also slightly showing.


    After lunch, the two men sat aside and talked about their matters while the two sisters went upstairs to


    have a girl’s talk.


    “Have you decided on an engagement date? Or maybe getting married right away?” Queenie asked.


    “I think we’re doing just fine. I feel free while dating him,” Jessie answered, clearly not anxious about


    getting married.


    “Well, since you put it that way, let’s not worry about this until you’re ready.” Queenie agreed.


    “I want to at least wait until my nephew is born!” After Jessie said that, she gently caressed Queenie’s


    belly. “When will we start feeling fetal movement?”


    “Soon. It’s supposed to begin around the fourth month.” Queenie also looked forward to it—the magical


    touch from her future newborn.


    After having dinner, Jessie and Julian stayed until 8.00PM and left.


    The two had agreed to pay a visit to the orphanage the next day, and Jessie would take five million


    from her signing bonus and donate it to them. Moreover, the orphanage had managed to get finer


    treatment and would soon be moving to a new ce.


    When they arrived at the orphanage, Julian felt a pang in his heart when he saw the ce she grew up


    at. It turns out that she was living a poor life before returning to the Silverstein Family. Yet, she


    constantly rys her kindness and determination to the other children at the orphanage. The director


    said she has always been a role model for other children.


    When it was time for them to head home, Jessie gathered all the gifts she received from the children


    and put them in a box to bring home with her.


    Distressed, Julian embraced her before kissing her.


    She blinked her eyes at him. “What’s the matter?”


    “Nothing.” He could not put his love for her into words, but he knew he was deeply in love with her.


    The start of a new year meant new beginnings. Jessie had made a name for herself and was so


    popr that an international brand chose her to be the global spokesperson for their perfume ad with


    an endorsement fee of two billion.


    This was the first time she had ever been a spokesperson for anything, so she was unaware of how


    others were jealous of her. She was a newly debuted celebrity who had only appeared in one film and


    was now chosen to be the global spokesperson for a multinational corporation.


    Her poprity, along with Julian’s, skyrocketed, and the fans adored her. While some celebrities had


    dark histories that could not be revealed, Jessie’s past made them feel more sympathetic toward her as


    they got to know her.


    They found out that she got lost at a young age and was admitted into an orphanage, where she had to


    independently earn money for herself when she reached eighteen. She yed cameo roles and stunt


    doubles for a living, and she gave all the money she earned to the orphanage for the betterment of the


    children there. As for her, she stayed in a cheap hotel and ate bread daily. Later, she discovered that


    she was the second youngdy of a wealthy family that owned a hundred-year-old brand.


    Therefore, how could such a hardworking and determined celebrity not be famous? Her past and


    personality made the fans feel distressed for her, but they also liked her even more and wished that


    she could participate in more roles. The Inte was also filled with supportivements when she


    was announced as the spokesperson.


    When it was time for them to head home, Jessie gathered all the gifts she received from the children


    and put them in a box to bring home with her.


    Later during a press conference, Jessie revealed that two-thirds of her endorsement fee would be


    donated to charity organizations so that they could be used to assist more children in need. If it had


    been another celebrity, the public might have deemed her altruism as an act, but that was not the case


    for her. Her husband was a rich, well-known actor, and her family owned a hundred-year-old brand


    worth seventy billion, which meant she was not short of money.

    for her. Her husband was a rich, well-known actor, and her family owned a hundred-year-old brand


    worth seventy billion, which meant she was not short of money.


    That was why many believed that her donations were genuine. Also, the public discovered that while


    other celebrities would show off their luxuries, the clothes Jessie wore on camera were ordinary clothes


    and essories. Still, they looked exceptionally beautiful on her.


    In an instant, she became the celebrity role model many fans idolized.


    As for Jessie herself, she was keeping a low profile, staying behind closed doors to date, cook, swim,


    and spend time with Julian. To her, anything done with him was meaningful.


    The following day was the day of her advertisement shoot. She was feeling nervous, for she had never


    gained such experiences before.


    That morning, she arrived at the shooting site in a white dress. She was met with a huge green cloth


    draped across the back of the studio. In addition, the shooting required her to do some wire-flying,


    which she was skilled at.


    Since that morning, she had been busy with her makeup. Her final makeup was elegant and attractive,


    making her look like a princess.


    Her evening gown was also specially designed for her by the world’srgest dress manufacturer. It was


    a gown with thousands of shimmering diamonds embedded in it, and it was the kind that only a person


    with the right temperament and figure could wear.


    However, Jessie was able to pull off that dress and look effortlessly stunning in it!


    Her advertisement shooting went smoothly, maybe because her lover was present at the scene. Her


    gaze was always twinkling and filled with light, resembling the mesmerizing gxy.


    On-screen, she was showing off her perfect figure, and her facial features looked wless under the


    lens of the high-definition camera. The shooting began in the morning andsted untilte afternoon.


    The first day of shooting ended at 4.00PM because there would be another day of shooting tomorrow.


    Julian, who had been apanying her the entire time, felt bad for her because she had only eaten


    half of her lunch before heading off to film with a hungry stomach.


    However, she was as joyful as a child after the shoot. She dragged her beautiful evening dress around


    while pacing back and forth before him, hoping to get apliment.


    “Lovely?”


    “Yes, very. Do you want this dress?”


    Though she adored this evening dress, it was only suitable for advertisement shoots and not daily


    asions due to its eye-catchiness. She might even lose a diamond while wearing it, which would pain


    her to lose.
