Chapter 1225
Tobias pped Gia hard while she was distracted. At that moment, he lost his rationality, and the piece
ofnd became a hot potato.
He wanted to sell it secretly, take the money, and run away. He roared with bloodshot eyes and a
ferocious face, “I’ll destroy whoever dares to block my way to wealth!”
His phone suddenly rang, and he looked at the unknown number in surprise.

A gentle woman’s voice spoke. “May I know if this is Mr. Chambers?”
Tobias’ expression softened, and his expression changed. He no longer looked like a devil.
“Hello… Yes, I am! May I know who this is?”
“I am Anna Collins, a senior assistant from Aureneil Industrial.”
Tobias’ cunning eyes lit up. “Anna? Why are you calling?”
Anna chuckled sweetly. “Are you teasing me, Mr. Chambers? Don’t you know why I’m calling? What did
you inquire about in the past few days?”
“Could it be that your superiors are interested in mynd?”
“That’s right.”
She continued. “Mr. Chambers, my superiors said that the Thompsons are considered a prominent
family. Although they can’tpare with the four families, they’re quite powerful. We heard that they’re
developing a film studiotely…”
“Yes, yes, yes!” He smiled widely. “Thend is just next to the film studio! Tell your superiors that they’ll
definitely make a profit by buying thisnd!”
“Sure, sir.” Anna chuckled. “They said they’d like to meet you! Which day is best for you?”

Lina couldn’t help butugh after ending the call.
Abigail was picking photographs for the magazine. She tilted her head and nced at Lina before
teasing her. “If you keep this up, you’ll havepetition in the entertainment industry!”
“No, no! The voice changer gets all the credit,” Lina replied.
Lina noticed something off about Abigail today. She was usually career-driven, but she seemed
distracted while picking photographs.
“What’s wrong?” Lina poked her with her elbow. “Is there romance in the air?”
“You…” Abigail widened her big eyes, making her face look out of proportion.
“Haha, I’ll stop teasing!” Lina grabbed her arm. “Tell me the truth. Do you miss Jacob?”
“Not today.” Abigail smiled. “Someone insisted on taking me to Jangasas!”
“Who is it?”
Abigail revealed the name of a female celebrity, Ca Clover, her good friend in the industry.
Lina couldn’t understand why Abigail was being dragged to Jangasas, but she showed Lina their
conversation.
Ca: [Hmm, there’s a great aesthetic clinic in Jangasas. Go with me!]
Abigail: [What… There are so many ways to love yourself. Can’t you refrain from altering your face?
Your face isn’t ugly, to begin with!]
Ca: [I wouldn’t be wasting money like this if I were as beautiful as you!]
Abigail: [Is there a good aesthetic doctor in such a small ce? Don’t get yourself into trouble and
jeopardize your future!]
Ca: [No, no! There are no paparazzi in that small city. It’s a great distraction! Also, I heard that the
Thompsons’ daughter did stic surgery there, too!]
Abigail: [What?]
The conversation ended there. Lina was stunned after reading that part.
“The Thompsons’ daughter… Is that me?” Lina asked.
“Could it be me instead?” Abigail looked at her with big, innocent eyes. Then she held Lina’s hand with
concern. “What happened, Lina? Did someone use your name to run ads without your permission?
That’s an infringement of name and portrait rights. You can sue them!”
Lina looked at her quietly before bursting intoughter.
Abigail was confused. “What are youughing about?”
“Seems like you’ve been studyingw!” Lina teased her.
Abigail blushed. “We were talking about you. Why did you drag me in?”
Lina smiled and said nothing.
She had heard that Zuko had asked Jacob the same question, and he had given the same answer.
Outsiders could see that they liked each other.
It’s just that saying “I like you” was a big deal to them. They would rather die than say it out loud.
‘Forget it. Let them be.’ Lina sighed while smiling. Time would prove everything, after all.Books

“Ahem!” Lina cleared her throat. “Since this involves me, I’ll just drop by Jangasas, too.”
Abigail thought for a while before nodding. “I’ll go with you!”
She quickly contacted Jackie to adjust her schedule.
As her foot hadn’t healed yet, she needed to bring her medicine.
Lina felt warm. She hugged Abigail while smiling. “I didn’t know I hold such a high ce in your heart!
It’d be breaking news if the paparazzi caught you going to an aesthetic clinic!”
“I’m not scared.” Abigail smirked like a little fox and patted Lina’s cheeks. “No matter what they say
about me in the news, I have your mother-inw’s backing!”
Lina said, “You’re taking advantage of Aunt Cordelia?
“What? You’re depending on my inws now but not me? You sure are ungrateful!”
Lina yfully pinched Abigail’s arm, and they continued their friendly banter.

Two dayster, they began their trip to Jangasas.
They nned to drive themselves. After all, there were two celebrities among the three of them, and
they would have more privacy if they drove themselves.
Zuko verbally agreed to let her go on her own, but in reality, he secretly followed her in a car. He
confidently imed he was out running an errand when he was caught!
Meanwhile, Jacob’s Mercedes G-ss was speeding as if flying in the otherne. He seemed excited.
The two men each took onene while Abigail’s private car, which had just been ‘fixed’, was in the
middlene.
Jackie was the only man capable of driving the threedies, who were either watching dramas or
napping with their headphones on.
He looked beaten as he drove, sandwiched between Zuko on the leftne and Jacob on the right. They
provided protection on both sides.
Despite being a seasoned driver with over ten years of experience, Jackie couldn’t control the shaking
of his hands as he gripped the steering wheel.
