Chapter 442


    Emma asked hesitantly, “Allison, do you really have a boyfriend?”.


    Talk about timing.


    Just as Allison was about to respond, her phone on the coffee table buzzed. It was a call from Lucian.


    Emma caught a glimpse of the name ‘Mr. Lindberg’ shing on the screen.


    Allison apologized to Emma, then picked up the call. “Hello.”.


    “Lunchtime?” Allison nced at the time, “Sure, I’ll be right there.”


    She gave a slight smile, “You don’t have to pick me up. I can make it myself. I’m at Epic


    Entertainment.”


    After hanging up, Allison got to her feet, “Sorry, Emma. I have to go now. If you need anything, just give


    me a call. I’m always avable.”


    She picked up her coat from the rack, “About my boyfriend. We can talk about him another time.”


    Emma watched Allison walk away, letting out a sigh. She immediately started going through a few


    scripts, reading them carefully. She needed to n for Allison, choose the right scripts and handle the


    business affairs in order to live up to Allison’s trust in her.


    She felt regretful. Such a beautiful actress, her potential was wasted. But she had faith, Allison would


    make a name for herself within five years.


    True gold could stand the test of fire.


    Soft music was ying in the restaurant.


    Allison walked in and saw Lucian already there.


    “Sorry, I’mte.” Allison apologized.


    “I’ve just arrived.” Lucian said.


    The waiter handed over the menu to them.


    Allison took a quick look and ordered a steak and a fruit sd. Soon, the food was served along with a


    fresh juice on the house.


    Lucian said, “I have to fly to Britain this Saturday. I’ll be there for a week.” He looked at her. Her eyes


    were lowered, looking extraordinarily gentle and beautiful under the light. He said, “Your next role is all


    set. Jennifer’s new film is pushed back, so your next film is a detective story. The production team is


    really good.”


    He had specifically arranged for this team. The director, Wade, was good at detective stories and


    excellent at controlling narratives.


    The original work was by a famous detective author. Hisst work had sold 7 million copies just after it


    was released. His reputation was top-notch among domestic detective authors, so the new film was


    highly anticipated by readers even at the pre-production stage.


    The scriptwriter was Victoria, Wade’s old friend. She was one of the women who had won the best


    scriptwriter awards domestically and had a great rapport with Wade after working together for 10

    years.


    The production team was almost perfect.


    Allison asked, “Didn’t you say I could choose?”


    Lucian looked at her, saying, “Allison, I’m giving you resources to make you famous. You don’t have to


    wait, nor have to work your way up step by step. I want to give you the best resources.”


    Allison said softly, “The best?”


    She looked at Lucián. But deep down, she felt bitter. For some reason, the longer she spent with


    Lucian, the stronger the feeling..


    She wanted to work her way up from a supporting role, step by step. But this man wanted to push her


    straight to the top. She should have been happy, but Allison didn’t break into a smile.


    Lucian was a little surprised, “You don’t like it?”


    Allison gave a faint smile, “I do.”


    In reality, it wasn’t that she didn’t like it. She would be happy to get quality resources.


    Allison knew Lucian couldn’t give her what she truly wanted. She wanted to be his wife, just that
