Chapter 103


    Unexpectedly, Xan had barely been there a few minutes to win Benjamin over.


    Indeed, there’s no one in this world who can resist the charm of his darling niece!


    “That’s fantastic!” Oliver pped his hands andughed, pulling them both to sit down, “Let’s get down


    to business and talk about the contract!”


    The discussion moved from the contract to the script, and it wasn’t until the afternoon that they


    wrapped up.


    Benjamin stood up, still enthusiastic, and looked at Xanthea with admiration, “Ms. Nightshade, you truly


    have a brilliant mind. Your insights into the script even put me to shame.”


    “You tter me, Movie King”


    “There’s no need for formalities, Ms. Nightshade. You can call me Benjamin, just like Mr. Lopez does.”


    Calling him by his first name? Isn’t that a bit too impolite?


    Although Xanthea didn’t know much about the intricacies of entertainment industry, she knew that this


    industry valued etiquette, especially the respect shown to seniors. But recalling his earlier mention of


    age, it seemed he was quite sensitive about being considered old


    “Alright, then you can call me Xan.”


    Xan, Xan.


    Benjamin murmured the name in his heart and nodded with a smile.


    “Uncle, I need to discuss something with you.”


    Before leaving, Xanthea pulled Oliver aside, “I talked to the project team carlier and found out that the


    filming location is quite far from home. I was thinking of renting a ce in the western areas of


    Crestwood for convenience.


    “No problem, I’ll take care of it!


    At the top floor of the Lockwood Group headquarters.


    Jacob rushed into the president’s office with a stack of documents, “Chairman, the investigation into


    Ms. Nightshade’s motorcycle explosion has beenpleted. Due to the severe destruction at the


    scene, all traces have been obliterated


    To prevent the leakage of audition materials, there were no cameras installed in the makeup room or


    rehearsal area that day. After screening all who entered the Glory Building, only two had the


    opportunity tomit the crime–Miranda and Isabe


    But one is Ms. Nightshade’s stepsister, and the other imed she had stepped out to smoke,


    intentionally hiding to avoid paparazzi, with her agent and assistant as alibis.”


    “Miranda?”


    “Yes! We initially wanted to investigate her, but it turns out she suffered a severe drug overdose


    recently and is currently hospitalized. It’s likely she won’t be able to speak for months.”


    Orion pondered for a moment, “Continue the investigation.”


    “Will do!” Jacob closed the file, slightly surprised by how much the chairman cared for Ms. Nightshade,


    even suspecting her own sister. “Also, chairman, while investigating the ident, I noticed that Ms.


    Nightshade moved into a new house for filming ‘Realm of Illusions right next to your temporary


    residence in the westem areas of Crestwood.”


    Hearing this, Orion slowly looked up.


    “Ah, moving is exhausting!”


    After settling all her belongings in her new home, Xanthea took a rxing bath and flopped onto the


    bed in her bunny pajamas.


    As the evening breeze picked up, she remembered her undies still hanging outside, and she nned to


    retrieve them. However, to her surprise, when she went outside and searched around, she couldn’t find


    them anywhere. Just as she was puzzled, she unexpectedly spotted her pink Hello Kitty panties lying


    on the neighboring balcony’s nter!


    She was startled and immediately tiptoed to look across. She only saw a pair of men’s gray slippers on


    the balcony.


    Did a man live next door?
