Chapter 1272
When Christine found out that her idol actually took the initiative to bring her to take photos with the
heavy hitters, she was so excited that her speech became incoherent. “R-Really? That would trouble
you too much! I-I can do it on my own.”
Herpany had asked her to take more pictures with big shots during the event and post them on
Twitter to raise her poprity, but she didn’t know even a single one of them and had no one to take
her around to get to know them. She also had no assistant that could help her to take the pictures.
Besides that, they had even sent her a knock-off dress. It seemed that they purposely wanted to take
her down.
Stanley didn’t mind. “Oh, we are all loser otakus who y games. We should help each other out.
Come, I’ll introduce you to them.”
Sean watched as they both walked in front of him. He followed them behind with a camera and even
gave Stanley a reminder. “Stan, you two should exchange phone numbers and add each other on
Messenger so it’ll be easier to send pictures.”
Stanley was a little slow on the uptake. Catching on, he quickly exchanged phone numbers with
Christine and added each other on Messenger.
After they exchanged contacts, Stanley brought Christine along to take pictures with someone and
introduce her to some big shots along the way.
“Uncle Michael, Aunt,e here and take a picture together. Uncle Harry,e closer. Right, leave
the center to the miss.”
“Nate,e here. Take a picture with this young miss. You need to hold hands and look like you guys
are close.”
“Nicole, Uncle Sam, Linus! Come take a picture!”
……
When Bethany and the other D-listers saw that Christine was able to chat and take pictures with a
group of fashionistas and had Stanley by her side, they were all extremely jealous.
Bethany was fuming.
Sh*t, why is nothing happening yet? Isn’t this b*tch supposed to be dead by now?!
She had always wanted to get rid of Christine, and it so happened that her financial backer wanted her
to make a scene at fashion week. She was nning to use the opportunity to get rid of her and cause
some trouble at the same time. They could have killed two birds with one stone if the n had not been
messed up by someone else unexpectedly!
After the photo session, Christine was overjoyed. She had also used the opportunity to get to know a
lot of fashionistas and added them on Messenger too.
“Thank you, Mr. Snow Fox!” Christine blushed. She was still used to calling his username in the game.
Stanley didn’t mind and replied, “Oh, it’s no big deal, so don’t worry about it. I’ll send you the pictures
as soon as possible so that you can report back.”
He really didn’t mind it at all and forgot about it after a while, but Christine’s eyes were shining and she
had butterflies in her belly.
Sean, who was not far away, looked at them. There was sadness in his eyes, but it was filled with
blessings too…
Sophia had added Christine on Messenger too and used the opportunity to check on her circle of
friends. Sophia saw the bunch of beautiful photos she just posted that she took with her phone earlier.
Because both parties didn’t interact much before, they didn’t have many mutual friends. Besides,
Messenger only allowed the likes andments of mutual friends to be seen, so she couldn’t see her
likes.
She swiped her finger and took a few more looks, thinking that maybe she and Stanley could develop
their rtionship. As his aunt, she went through her profile and inspected it closely. Unexpectedly, she
saw a like andment. She clicked it and found that it was actually from Maddie.
Maddie and Christine actually knew each other!
She quickly sent Maddie an inquiry and Maddie replied very quickly. “Oh, she is a distant cousin of
mine from my hometown. She came to Bayside City to pursue her career alone and she didn’t know
anyone, so my rtives back home asked me to take care of her. Her invitation for this fashion week
was from mypany too! You don’t have to mind her, just let her explore on her own. She’s already
all grown up and isn’t a kid anymore.”
Sophia was left speechless. Christine was actually Maddie’s distant rtive, yet she had never heard
Maddie mention about her before.
But Maddie sure was punctilious. She never told her rtives back in her hometown about life with her
husband in Bayside City, and she had never brought her rtives to the Fletcher Residence too. Her
family really thought that she had married a paratrooper and lived in a basement in Beijing.
This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.
It wasn’t because she thought that her rtives were embarrassing, but because if her rtives knew
about the Fletcher Family, they would start to ask Joel for help with all of their family matters, such as
helping an older brother, uncle or younger brother get married, or helping them look for a job. They
would definitely bother Joel and she didn’t want to cause him trouble.
Even though she knew that Sophia and Michael had a lot of resources at their fingertips, and that they
could arrange everything for her if she asked for it, she still stayed silent.
However, that was in line with Maddie’s style. She started off as an intern editor in a newspaper and
worked there for many years. She had worked her way up, not letting Joel put in a good word for her
and without using any of the Fletcher Family’s resources either.
Seeing how Christine wore a knock-off dress to the fashion show, it seemed that she was being
ostracized by herpany. Her team also didn’t seem to care about her at all. Maddie really was
careless, letting a youngdy wander in Beijing by herself without worrying. What was more, she was
letting her wander in the ruthless and cruel world of entertainment.
If she hadn’t intervened out of kindness, Christine would have been a dead person by now!
Sophia looked at Christine and said to her assistant, “Contact Christine’s agency. She has a good
temperament. She will be our spokesperson for the next season.”
A storm was prevented just like that, but Sophia still kept her guard up. This matter wasn’t as simple as
it seemed. If they wanted to make such a big scene, they would need a lot of manpower and would
have needed to start nning a long time ago. If she hadn’t intervened today, they probably would
have seeded already.
She really didn’t expect the other party to be so bold that they would kill someone at such a grand
fashion show.
But that fitted the style of that pair of twin brothers who weren’t afraid of anything.
After handling the matter, Sophia lifted her head and started looking everywhere for Cooper.
“Huh, where’s dad?”
Cooper still hadn’t appeared, and Anna didn’t show up either. He was probably waiting for Anna
outside.
Sophia looked over to Callum and saw him staring at his phone. It seemed that he had received some
grim news.
Outside the venue, Cooper had already been waiting for quite a while. He checked on his watch from
time to time.
The show is about to start. Why is Anna not here yet?
Did something happen?
Just then, a car stopped and Daniel got out of it gracefully. He immediately saw Cooper who was still
waiting foolishly and greeted him. “Hey, Mr. Cooper! Are you waiting for someone?”
Cooper responded with a grunt.
Daniel presented his invitation while saying, “I think I saw Ronney’s car right behind me just now.”
Cooper perked up immediately. He pulled himself together, tidied up his attire and prepared to wee
Anna in his best condition.
Daniel smiled.
Geez…
The cold Cooper was no different to a little boy when he fell in love.
Daniel walked over to the red carpet and entered the venue. Just when he was about to greet an
acquaintance, he suddenly saw a blue dress shing past him.
In that instant, Daniel’s eyes widened. An attractive figure was reflected in his eyes.
“Alice, is that you…?”
Alice turned her head and looked back. Her eyes were calm, as was her smile. She controlled her
emotions perfectly.
“Daddy!”
Casper suddenly appeared and ran toward Daniel joyfully.
……
Cooper, who was at the door, finally saw Ronney Group’s car arrive. He happily took two steps forward,
ready to wee Anna, but he didn’t expect that when the car door opened, the first thing to step on
the ground would be a pair of leather shoes for men…
