Ella waved her hands to Eden dismissively and continued talking to Yang. "I have been abroad. How have you been lately?"
Ella looked at the Maserati behind him and wondered whether he was working as a driver.
Yang nodded his head happily. "Very well. Are you going back to the United States?"
The man, who walked towards the Maserati, stopped when he heard Yang's words. But he tried to behave as if he wasn't bothered and opened the rear door of the car. "Be careful."
He said, placing one hand on the car door and holding Catherine's hand with other. He helped her get in the car gently.
Then he scooted in beside her.
Even though he had closed the door, he could still hear Ella's voice. "Yes, I'll be back in the United States after I finish filming the teleplay."
Yang felt sad after he heard her words but became excited when he recalled something. He looked at Ella and said "You are a famous star now. That's great. Please give me your phone number so that we can stay in touch."
Ella recited her number out loud as Yang typed and saved it in his phone, and vice-versa.
In the car, Catherine looked at Samuel, who had his eyes closed, and wondered what he was thinking about.
"Yang." Samuel called him lightly, but his voice boomed throughout the car and sipped outside.
Yang said goodbye to Ella and got in the driver's seat.
Ella and Eden went back to their car too and drove behind them slowly.
In the car, Ella kept thinking about what Catherine had said. She had asked Samuel to go to her house that night. How was their relationship?
Ella thought. They had been engaged and possibly lived together.
Samuel opened his eyes, took out his cellphone, and saved Ella's number. He had been listening intently when she recited them to Yang.
Observing Samuel's movements keenly, Catherine clenched her left hand into a fist tightly.
I will never let you ruin my happiness Ella. Never! Catherine thought to herself.
After forty minutes, the Maserati stopped in front of a cell gate, so did the Mercedes caravan behind them.
Ella watched as the Maserati diverted into the residential area.
Ella, surprisingly, became sad, as their car diverted to the hotel.
“Who does she think she is? I won’t marry her even if she is the last woman on earth,” said Hiram Rong.
“Marry into a family with tens of billions of assets? How lucky I am! I won’t be so foolish as to break off the engagement. At worst, I can receive money as part of the divorce settlement,” said Rachel Ruan.
Their great-grandfathers made a pact about their engagement a hundred years ago...
n her knees obediently, as a sign of respect to the emperor.
"Cut!" Director Xiao called out. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Good job everyone. Ella, fantastic as always." Director Xiao's loud voice could be heard all over the hall.
Ella stood up and a makeup assistant ran to her to fix her make-up immediately.
The dance was complete in one shot. Ella's forehead had exuded beads of sweat.
She took the water Eden gave to her and drank it. The makeup assistant absorbed the sweat from her forehead with cotton pads.
"Ella, come here. There's something you need to take care.." Director Xiao asked Ella to join him in order to discuss where she needed to improve.
Ella was not busy with the play for the first several days. At night, Eden she would drive to the town house to see the children.
The three kids were playing happily with other children in the courtyard of the town house. Everything was fine, which consoled Ella.
On the third day, they were filming the intimate scenes. At this time, Lily was titled as Beauty Lily, after the dance.
Today, Lily was dressed in a light red costume instead of the weird outfits from the foreign country she was from. She was wearing natural make-up that extenuated her beauty.
At the time, Crystal had stayed in the palace for several days and only met the emperor several times. However, they had seen each other many times outside the palace. Both of them had fallen in love with each other.
