Chapter 647


    At this time, most of the restaurants had closed down, so they chose a sidewalk snack booth.


    It was a clean booth with delicious food. Earlier, Sherry had alwayse over to dine with the


    employees of their studio, so the booth owner was quite familiar with her.


    After making orders, Ste found her phone was ringing. She checked the caller ID, only to discover


    that it was rence.


    Ste stood up, walked aside, and swiped to answer the call, “Hello?”


    Right then, a car roared past the booth on the street.


    rence paused a bit on the other end of the line and asked, “Aren’t you home?”


    “Chan and Winnie are filming a program today. We waited for them and nned to have dinner


    together.”


    “Have you finished yet?”


    rence added, “Give me the address.”


    Ste asked, “Have you knocked off?”


    rence said, “Yeah. I’ll go pick you up.”


    Ste curled up her lips and said, “Okay.”


    After hanging up the phone, she sent the location to rence and walked back to her seat.


    Ste looked at ine, who couldn’t help yawning, and asked, “Sherry, how long will it take Winnie and


    Chan to arrive?”


    “I just called them. They’ll be here in ten minutes. When the dishes are served, they should be here.”


    Ste nodded. Then she said to ine, “If you are too sleepy, go ahead to nap in my car. I’ll bring you


    some foodter.’


    ine rubbed her eyes, “No, thanks, Ste. I’ll be better while eating.”


    Sherry smiled and said, “I do envy you for getting asleep easily. I used to be like you before. As soon


    as I closed my eyes, I could fall asleep.”


    ine asked in confusion, “Aren’t we supposed to sleep as soon as closing our eyes? Why can’t you


    sleep?”

    “When you are older, you’ll know what insomnia is.”


    ine was rtively young. With her current sleep quality, Sherry didn’t think she would understand


    what insomnia was.


    Sherry looked at Ste, “Who has just called you, Ste? Mr. Conrad?”


    “Yeah. He’lle hereter.”


    “Mr. Conrad is always busy. When will he have a break?”


    Ste was silent for a moment. Then she curled up her lips into a faint smile and said, “Probably soon.”


    After ten minutes or so, Winnie and Channing arrived. The barbecued dishes they had ordered were


    served as well.


    Sherry looked over at Winnie and said, “Why were you arranged to shoot the same program with


    Flora?”


    Winnie raised her eyebrows, “Probably I’ve done a lot of wrong things.”


    “That’s too ridiculous. Why did the program team hire her? All through the filming, she didn’t do


    anything. Wouldn’t she be scolded when the show is on?”


    “I heard she was hired to save the viewing rate of the program. They would put more sense of hers


    during post-editing. Besides, she’s smart. She knows when to appear on the camera. She didn’t do


    anything, but she had enough filming.”


    “No wonder. She has a lot of negative news, but her fans still keep defending her and try to whitewash


    her,” said Sherry. She added, “Did she make trouble to you?”


    Recalling the few minutes before filming, Winnie subconsciously looked over at Channing, who opened


    a can before putting it in front of her. He met her gaze.


    Winnie immediately withdrew her gaze and said thoughtfully, “Nothing serious. Her tricks don’t work on


    me.”


    Winnie kept chatting with Sherry. After putting a tin of drink in front of Winnie, Channing opened other


    cans and put them in front of Ste, Sherry, and ine.


    ine took it over and blushed slightly, “Thank you,” she said.


    Ste asked, “How long will this filmingst?”


    “Till the end of this month,” answered Channing.


    “After this show, will yourpany assign you with other jobs?”


    Channing nodded and answered, “Yes.”


    When Ste was about to speak something, a ck minivan parked next to them.


    Flora got down from the minivan a few secondster.


    Looking at Winnie, she held her arms and curled up her lips, “Your friends have been waiting for you for


    such a long time. How can you invite them to eat these things? If I were you, I wouldn’t be able to do it.”


    As she spoke, she pulled out a business card from her purse and continued, “Well, my friend has


    opened a restaurant nearby. Take this and tell them I ask you to go there. This dinner is on me. After


    all, we’ve been working in the entertainment business for so many years. We are old friends.”


    Winnie was expressionless. She said indifferently, “I don’t remember when we’ve be friends.”


    Flora wasn’t angry. Instead, she covered her lips and smiled, “How can you still remember the thing


    that happened so many years ago. I’m a person with integrity. I hate those women who destroyed


    others’ families. That’s why I was quite excited back then. I understand why you have made such a


    choice. We work so hard just for money, don’t we? The shortcut is always good. However, you should


    have the luck to enjoy it, right?”


    She had thought that she would disgrace Winnie in front of her friends and Channing. However, they all


    lowered their head and enjoyed the barbecue, ignoring her.


    Flora put away her smile. Looking at Winnie, she continued, “I’ve said that out of my kindness. You can


    be so arrogant just because Mr. Conrad always likes you, isn’t it? Mr. and Mrs. Conrad are getting well


    right now. How could he have any chance to fool around with you? You’d better give up as early as you


    can. Don’t always destroy others’ families.”


    Channing frowned slightly. When he was about to stand up, Winnie pressed his arm.


    Ste raised her head, looking over at Flora, “Do you know you should take the legal responsibility


    when speaking?”


    Flora snorted, “I didn’t create those rumours out of nothing. All people in the entertainment business


    know she gets popr because Conrad Group is her backer. Why didn’t Conrad Group make others


    but only her popr? It’s because she’s good at tricks. She was the most famous one among so many


    stars and models in the Conrad Group. Isn’t she Mr. Conrad’s favourite one?”


    Sherry chimed in, “Then, ording to your logic, Mr. Conrad has done the right thing. He needs to


    make an actress popr by spending money, so he must choose a beautiful, capable, and hard-


    working one. Of course, he wouldn’t support an ugly, mean, and jealous bitch like you.”


    Flora instantly looked annoyed, “Who do you think you are speaking to?”


    “You know who I’m speaking to. If you still haven’t heard it enough, I can repeat it. Jealous bitch,


    jealous bitch, jealous bitch!”


    ine watched the scene and saw Sherry was so brave, so she also didn’t want to be defeated.


    Obviously, she hadn’t cursed others in this way. She followed Sherry and stammered, “Jealous...


    Jealous bitch!”


    Flora was so furious. She cursed aloud, “You lunatics! Sure enough, birds of a feather flock together.


    Just wait and see, Winnie Truman. I heard Mrs. Conrad is a tough nut to crack. If she knew you have


    hooked up with Mr. Conrad, you would be so doomed!”
