Chapter 47

Jeremy Arthur originally intended to attack Simone Milton and Martha directly, but was stopped by Katie Adams.

Katie Adams told Jeremy Arthur that these matters shouldn’t be handled by Jeremy Arthur at all. If it were discovered, Jeremy Arthur would definitely face serious consequences.

“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely help you get justice! Jeremy, it’s not worth sacrificing yourself for such a vicious woman…” Katie Adams said, with concern in her voice.

“Sister Katie Adams, you’re really too kind to me! I really adore you!” Jeremy Arthur was so moved that tears streamed down his face, ruining her makeup in the process.

But she really didn’t care about any of that. At that moment, Jeremy Arthur felt that Katie Adams was like his own parents again.

Someone who’s even more affectionate toward her than her own biological parents.

“To ensure everything goes smoothly, Jeremy, I need your cooperation,” said Katie Adams. But in her heart, she had another plan in mind.

The fact that Simone Milton and Nick Arthur were meeting her parents really got to her.

Although she and Alberta Arthur had already gotten permission from the parents and received Mrs. Arthur’s approval.

But the thought that Simone Milton might marry into the Arthur family ahead of her made Katie Adams feel uneasy.

She must seize the opportunity to get ahead of Simone Milton and the others.

God only knows whether, after Simone Milton entered the Arthur family, she would try to undermine Lady Arthur’s position, thereby preventing her from getting married into the family at all.

Although the chances of this happening were slim, Katie Adams felt like she simply couldn’t afford to take the risk.

Right now, Alberta Arthur’s feelings toward her have become much more complicated. If, at that time, something happens that Lady Arthur tries to prevent, it’s likely that Alberta Arthur will break off the relationship with her.

“How should I cooperate?” Hearing Katie Adams say that on the other end of the phone, Jeremy Arthur immediately asked.

Hearing that Jeremy Arthur had fallen for the trick, Katie Adams sighed and said, “In truth, most of your family members have already been won over by Simone Milton in the past. If you want to remain firmly established within the Arthur family, you need help.”

What she’s really saying is that she wants Jeremy Arthur to find a helper, like herself, for example.

After she married into the Arthur family, the two of them could stand on the same side, so that everyone could see Simonne Milton’s ugly true face.

Jeremy Arthur, just as Katie Adams had thought, immediately asked her where she could find help.

Katie Adams didn’t say anything. After all, there was no point in saying those things out loud. Besides, if anyone asked about it later, she wouldn’t be able to deny it.

At first, Jeremy Arthur hadn’t thought of Katie Adams at all. After some thought, however, he suddenly had an idea.

“Sister Katie Adams, I’ve figured it out! If you marry my brother, then I won’t have to fight alone anymore!” Jeremy Arthur said excitedly.

Jeremy Arthur’s words made Katie Adams’ eyes dart around nervously. Then, she pretended to be sad.

Katie Adams said, “I really want to help you, but your brother has been avoiding this topic for some reason lately. So, I’m afraid I can’t help you.”

“What? Weren’t your relationships fine before? I asked my brother not long ago, and he was very excited, saying he wanted to get engaged to you as soon as possible! How did he suddenly change his mind?” Jeremy Arthur stared at Katie Adams’ face on the phone screen, completely incredulous.

She meant every word she said. She just didn’t expect that so little time had passed before her brother changed his mind.

Seeing the gloomy expression on Katie Adams’s face, Jeremy Arthur quickly tried to make amends: “Actually, it might not be like that at all! Sister, maybe my brother just wants to surprise you?”

Hearing comfort like that from Jeremy Arthur made Katie Adams feel extremely uncomfortable.

On the one hand, it’s because Alberta Arthur had indeed considered getting engaged to him before.

But now, Alberta Arthur clearly wants to avoid this topic.

But on the other hand, she felt that Jeremy Arthur was essentially mocking her, as if she couldn’t keep any man around at all.

Although I know that Jeremy Arthur certainly didn’t mean it that way, Katie Adams, to put it bluntly, is stuck in her own stubborn mindset and can’t get out of it.

How could she possibly understand Jeremy Arthur?

Seeing the increasingly ugly expression on Katie Adams’s face, Jeremy Arthur quickly found an excuse to hang up the phone.

So that she wouldn’t see Katie Adams’s ugly expression and feel upset.

After hanging up the phone with Katie Adams, Jeremy Arthur felt a bit guilty. After some thought, he decided to call Alberta Arthur and find out what was going on.

Albert Arthur, who received this call from Jeremy Arthur, had a great day ruined by Jeremy’s question: “Bro, when are you going to propose to Katie Adams?”

“How come you suddenly brought up this topic? Did Katie Adams say something to you?” Alberta Arthur became serious and questioned Jeremy Arthur.

Hearing that Alberta Arthur wasn’t in a good mood, Jeremy Arthur didn’t dare to tell the truth. He replied vaguely, “It’s not about that time when you tried to propose to Katie Adams. So much time has passed, and I haven’t seen any progress from you. That’s why I asked.”

Hearing Jeremy Arthur say that, Alberta Arthur didn’t doubt him much. He sighed and said:

“Just leave this matter alone, Jeremy. I know you and Katie Adams are very close, but there are some things that can’t be explained in just a few words.”

Just as before, he didn’t feel any aversion toward being close to Katie Adams.

But now, whenever he thought about how Katie Adams whispered insinuations in his ear, reminding him of how detestable Simone Milton was, he felt extremely exhausted.

Sometimes, he even wondered why he liked Katie Adams at all. After all, this Katie Adams wasn’t the kind of girl he really liked.

Instead, it seemed that Simone Milton became more and more diligent, more and more hardworking, and increasingly to his liking, starting from a certain day onward.

“But Sister Katie Adams is such a nice person, bro. What exactly are you worried about?” Jeremy Arthur simply couldn’t understand why Alberta Arthur’s attitude had become so ambiguous.

After much thought, Jeremy Arthur could only come up with the most logical explanation. He comforted Alberta Arthur by saying:

“If you’re afraid that Sister Katie Adams might reject you, then there’s no need to worry. Sister Katie Adams really likes you, so she definitely won’t refuse you!”

Jeremy Arthur thought that since he had explained things so clearly, Alberta Arthur would surely gather the courage to arrange everything related to her engagement with Katie Adams.

But what she thought was just what she thought. In reality, Alberta Arthur remained ambiguous and evasive in every way.

In the end, Jeremy Arthur only got a few words in reply: “This is a matter between me and Katie Adams, Jeremy. Let us handle it between the two of us.”

After Alberta Arthur hung up the phone, Jeremy Arthur, who had lost the battle, sadly told Katie Adams the results on his end.

“I’m sorry, Sister Katie Adams… There’s no way I can make my brother propose to you right now…” Jeremy Arthur said, looking dejected.

What else could Katie Adams say? Of course, she could only gently comfort Jeremy Arthur.

“It’s okay, I understand everything now… Jeremy, thank you. Let me handle this from now on.” Katie Adamswin said gently to Jeremy Arthur.

Hearing this, Jeremy Arthur felt that something uncontrollable might happen.

But later, upon reflection, Jeremy Arthur thought that, given Katie Adams’ character, she was trustworthy enough to rely on. So he stopped worrying about it.

After hanging up the phone, Katie Adams called Sister Hu again, telling her to bring over what she wanted as soon as possible.

Half an hour later, Sister Hu finally arrived at Katie Adams’s home. After some hesitation, she took out a packet of powder.

“Will anything really go wrong if we do this?” Sister Hu was a bit worried. After all, those medicines were quite potent.

Katie Adams said, “What could possibly happen? I’m just keeping this on hand, just in case. If he really wants to marry me, then I certainly won’t need it! Don’t worry, I wouldn’t ever joke around with something like that that’s related to my career.”

She smiled gently, but her gaze was fixed intently on the packet of medicine.

“I hope so!” Seeing Katie Adams act in such a paranoid manner, Sister Hu couldn’t help but get goosebumps.

After repeatedly instructing Katie Adams on how to use the medicine, Sister Hu left the place.

Katie Adams, who received this medicine, didn’t use it right away.

She tried calling Alberta Arthur, but the call didn’t go through.

Katie Adams didn’t give up. She took a deep breath and tried to call again.

After repeating this process over a dozen times, Alberta Arthur finally picked up the phone, seemingly annoyed.

“Katie Adams, what do you want from me? I’m very busy right now. If there’s nothing important, I’ll hang up now!” Alberta Arthur casually asked Katie Adams in a perfunctory manner.

The moment Katie Adams heard Alberta Arthur’s voice, a smile appeared on her face without her even realizing it.

She said gently, “Alberta, it’s been so long since you’ve come to see me. I really miss you! Why don’t you come and spend some time with me today?”

“I…” Alberta Arthur felt increasingly annoyed hearing Katie Adams’s gentle and sweet voice. “Didn’t I already say I have things to deal with right now? Don’t you believe me?”

“I didn’t mean that. It’s just that we haven’t seen each other in so long… It makes me a little sad. Don’t you want to see me at all?” Katie Adams asked Alberta Arthur.

Albert Arthur said nothing more. After a long silence, he wanted to hang up the phone.

Just one second before he hung up the phone, Katie Adams suddenly spoke up, her voice sounding like a dream:

“Alberta, do you know that Simone Milton has already met with your uncle and aunt? Even your third uncle spoke highly of her,” Katie Adams asked tentatively.

These past few days, Alberta Arthur had deliberately avoided paying too much attention to the outside world, trying to sort out his own thoughts. But upon hearing this news, he was stunned.

Then, an inexplicable anger surged in his heart: Why, why did Simone Milton meet with the head of the family so quickly, along with his uncle?

His anger lasted only a few seconds before he realized that it was completely unfounded.

He and Simone Milton don’t have any special relationship at all. So what’s the point of being so angry?

“What do you want to say?” Alberta Arthur, who had calmed down, patiently asked Katie Adams.

On the other end of the phone, Katie Adams knew from her tone that Alberta Arthur was already extremely impatient.

But in order to achieve her goals, she had no choice but to speak up.

Katie Adams stammered, “It’s not really that important… I’m just a little envious. I envy Miss Milton and your uncle. I think good things are about to happen to them soon… I wonder if we should do the same…”

She thought to herself that since she had made such clear hints, even if Alberta Arthur pretended to be stupid, she should be able to understand her underlying message, right?

Hearing Katie Adams say those words with such anticipation, Alberta Arthur felt embarrassed and wanted to change the subject.

“I’m a little tired… If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up now!” Alberta Arthur said bluntly.

“There’s something I need to say,” Katie Adams couldn’t hold back any longer. Seeing that Alberta Arthur tried to avoid the issue and act stupidly once again, she blurted out, “I think it’s time for us to get engaged! Alberta, I thought we had a understanding between us…”

“Are you joking? How long has our careers even started yet? Getting married now could only bring about negative consequences!” Alberta Arthur refused without even thinking.

Hearing this, Katie Adams couldn’t help but laugh, yet at the same time, she felt extremely sad.

She had explained things clearly like this, but Alberta Arthur still pretended not to understand. She couldn’t believe that Alberta Arthur couldn’t grasp the meaning of her words.

“Albert Arthur, you’ve changed! You weren’t like this before… Is being with me really that unbearable now?”

“I just want our relationship to be closer. Don’t you think the same?”

Katie Adams’ relentless questions filled Alberta Arthur with guilt and shame.

He took a deep breath and said, “Come on, you know very well how much I love you. Why make such a big deal out of it?”

“But your love now is merely superficial. You really fail to give me any sense of security at all.” Katie Adams pointed out the couple’s problems bluntly.

This is also the biggest challenge they face together.

“There’s no need to say anything else…” Alberta Arthur felt extremely oppressed now. Katie Adams’s constant pressure was beginning to annoy him.

He even felt that Katie Adams had finally revealed her true colors. It was only at this moment that she would push him around like this.

Annoyed, she hung up the phone. Alberta Arthur sat on her sofa, lost in thought.

Perhaps he should think about how to sort out this relationship. At least for now, he needs to consider whether he really wants to be with Katie Adams.

Meanwhile, while Katie Adams and Alberta Arthur parted on bad terms, Simone Milton and Nick Arthur, who had already returned home, were in a wonderfully cheerful mood with each other.

“Well, I’m home now… Although meeting your relatives today was a bit unpleasant, I’m still happy.” Simone Milton smiled at Nick Arthur.

“As long as you’re happy, that’s all that matters. Don’t pay any attention to what that girl, Jeremy, says! She’s spoiled by my eldest brother and sister-in-law. She always talks without thinking.” Nick Arthur said, with a slight smile on his lips, clearly in a good mood.

“It’s me who should be saying those words, right? I’m fine with it. You yourself said that it’s Jeremy Arthur’s own problem. Please don’t take it to heart!” Simone Milton tried to persuade Nick Arthur in turn.

“I understand. Let’s rest properly today, and tomorrow we’ll go ahead and finish what we couldn’t do at the celebration party earlier.” Nick Arthur nodded and made arrangements for the next day.

“Sure! Mom, you go on a date with Dad. Leave the house to me and Grandpa!” Simone Milton hadn’t replied yet, but Martha spoke up instead.

Hearing Martha’s words, Simone Milton tapped her little green nose and said reproachfully, “You little brat, so mischievous for such a young age. Aren’t you afraid that Mom and Dad will go on a date and ignore you?”

“Hehe, no way! Even the little chubby kid in kindergarten said that parents need time alone to build a bond with their children!” Martha completely agreed with this view and nodded seriously.

“What can I say about you?” What else could Simone Milton say? Of course, she had to spoil her own daughter!

After saying goodbye to Nick Arthur, Simone Milton went back home.

At this point, the topic of “Three Lives” has already reached over 100 million mentions, making it the most popular topic nowadays.

There are also many streamers who try to capitalize on the popularity of “Three Lives” by using it as a topic for their broadcasts.

And the female triple role played by Simone Milton, along with her relationship with the Demon Lord, were particularly well-developed in the adaptation, giving rise to countless fan creations.

Of course, during the time of the Ronghua fire, there were also celebrities who played other roles and expressed their disapproval. But these negative comments never really gained any traction before they were dismissed.

Speaking of those who have a “sour” personality, Donna Walpole comes to mind.

Katie Adams used to be quite jealous too, but now, she simply doesn’t have the time to worry about such things. So, for now, the title of “Jealous Queen” has been taken over by Donna Walpole.

What’s most infuriating is that Donna Wolpe played a very young girl, despite the age gap. No one praised her acting skills. Instead, people mocked her for trying to act like a young girl when she was actually old.

In fact, if Donna Warburton’s acting skills are truly that remarkable—that she’s able to play a young girl at such an advanced age without any sense of dissonance—then that’s something truly admirable.

But unfortunately, her public relations team made a mistake in their initial positioning from the start.

As a result, when the movie was released, many viewers who went to the theater with high expectations were disappointed upon seeing Donna Walpole’s pretentious demeanor and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes that couldn’t be concealed. They felt deceived.

What would happen if Donna Woolfolk overestimated her acting skills and underestimated how the large screen would amplify her flaws?

So when Donna Warburton saw the comments from netizens, she immediately felt that they had no sense of appreciation at all. She quickly posted a selfie on Weibo to clarify that her appearance wasn’t as bad as people thought.

Donna Warburton’s actions only made things seem even more ridiculous to netizens.

Donna Warburton’s PR team, seeing the situation as it was, realized that things couldn’t continue like this. So, they simply shifted their focus and dragged Simone Milton down with them.

So, at the moment Donna Walpole was being criticized, the news that Simone Milton might have stolen someone else’s role and thus joined the cast quickly became a trending topic.

The marketing account that posted this claim insists that Simone Milton got the role by pulling strings and taking away what was supposed to be someone else’s role.

For a time, some believed this news, while others didn’t.

Anyway, the internet, which had been relatively peaceful for a while, once again became a scene of chaos and turmoil due to Simone Milton.

When she went to sleep, Simone Milton learned of the news. Her first thought was that Katie Adams was up to no good again.

But after learning about everything that had happened during that period of time, she abandoned her previous suspicions and focused her attention on Donna Walpole instead.

Obviously, she served as a scapegoat for someone else this time. Donna Walpole simply wanted to divert attention away from herself.

“Bring the situation under control right now, Georgia. We can’t let things get any worse.” Simone Milton said firmly.

“But…” Georgia wasn’t quite sure. It wasn’t something that could simply be resolved by them asking for the heat to be reduced.

“There’s nothing to clarify. You just need to post a statement on my official Weibo account, mention the director in your post, and have the trending search removed!” Simone Milton spoke in a very steady voice.

She knew that if she continued to stir up the situation, things might get out of control. Lately, she’s been involved in almost every major event.

These things might not necessarily be what she intended to get involved in, but netizens aren’t likely to think that way.

They’ll just think, “Why do you seem to be involved in every big and small event lately? And it always seems like you’re being framed. How could such things just happen by coincidence? You’re clearly up to no good.”

With such thoughts in mind, many people would start to dislike her, and even some of her fans would stop supporting her as a result.

To prevent such a situation from happening, she took the initiative to downplay the matter and provided a proper clarification.

As for what happens after that, it has nothing to do with them anymore.

After listening to Simone Milton’s analysis, Georgia found it reasonable and immediately ordered that action be taken.

After their gradual efforts to address the situation, things have finally started to improve.

At least it didn’t cause too much backlash.

Donna Walpole still wanted to start a war. However, Nick Arthur, who also kept an eye on online news, immediately contacted Oliver Arthur after learning about public opinion online.

He told Oliver Arthur to immediately go online to clarify the situation and confirm Simonne Milton’s account.

Oliver Arthur, who was at the bar at the time, felt rather helpless after receiving a call from Nick Arthur. Nevertheless, he obediently picked up his phone and posted the clarification post.

This incident was completely settled down, thanks to Oliver Arthur’s personal intervention.

With Oliver Arthur’s strong support, along with Simone Milton’s outstanding performance, it wasn’t long before a convincing conclusion was reached.

Simone Milton is truly perfect for this role!

Seeing that public opinion online had completely subsided, Nick Arthur sighed in relief. But at the same time, he found it strange why Simone Milton had suddenly become a trending topic again.

So, he immediately asked his assistant, Hobson, to investigate what exactly had happened.

After about ten minutes, Hobson’s assistant finally received the results.

“Boss, we’ve come to a conclusion on this matter… Here’s what happened…” Assistant Hobson briefly explained the situation to Nick Arthur.

At the same time, she also mentioned a few things she happened to find out while researching.

After listening to everything Assistant Hobson reported, Nick Arthur’s eyebrows were furrowed tightly.

“What do you mean? Did Katie Adams deliberately arrange for that fan to be at the celebration party? And was that fan motivated to hurt Simone because of Katie Adams and her accomplices?” Nick Arthur never expected to come to such a conclusion in his investigation.

Although he had some doubts before, it seemed clear that Simone Milton was merely caught up in the situation by chance.

“In fact, there’s more to it. From our investigations, it seems that Miss Katie Adams was also involved in various schemes to frame Miss Milton…” Assistant Hobson said, clearly uneasy.

“Ban her! Such a vicious and scheming woman must not be allowed to continue operating in this circle!” Nick Arthur said viciously.

Because of the things Assistant Hobson said, they were enough to capture Nick Arthur’s full attention at that moment. As a result, Donna Walpole, who was actually the culprit this time, managed to get away with it.

But even so, Donna Warburton lost several high-profile endorsements and acting roles for no clear reason.

Yet, the Arthur family was extremely powerful and influential. Even though Donna Walpole held great prestige within her circle of acquaintances, she didn’t dare to confront the Arthur family. She had no choice but to swallow her grievances in silence.

Meanwhile, on the other end, Hobson’s assistant thought that Nick Arthur was being a bit too impulsive after hearing what he said.

“After all, Miss Katie Adams is still Lord Alberta’s girlfriend. If we do this, might it cause Lord Alberta to be displeased?” Assistant Hobson asked, clearly worried.

“If he really has something to complain about, then let him come to me directly! I’d like to hear his explanation.” Nick Arthur said coldly to Hobson’s assistant.

It was confirmed that Nick Arthur hadn’t made this decision on a whim. With no further obstacles to preventing the transaction, he quickly went ahead and blocked Katie Adams.

On the other end, Katie Adams had no idea that misfortune was about to befall her.

After dealing with all these matters, Nick Arthur checked his watch, then went upstairs to rest.

He currently lives in his own villa. Although it seems empty now, he believes that once Simone Milton moves in with him, the place will become full and cozy.

It seems that Nick Arthur thought of that beautiful scene. When he went to bed that morning, he seemed incredibly cheerful.

After sleeping through the night until the next day, Nick Arthur got up, had breakfast, and then went to his wardrobe to carefully choose what to wear for his date.

No matter which piece of clothing he picked out, Nick Arthur felt extremely dissatisfied with it.

Ask the part-time worker who comes to cook for him. But the part-time worker said that he looks good in anything he wears.

It has no value at all as a reference.

As the appointed time for the meeting neared, Nick Arthur had no choice but to grab a suit at the last minute and rush over to Simone Milton’s place.

Upon arriving at Simone Milton’s house, Nick Arthur got out of the car and saw Simone Milton standing politely at the door, waiting for him.

“How come you’re standing here alone? Why didn’t you wait for me inside?” Nick Arthur looked at Simone Milton in confusion. He naturally took Simone Milton’s hand and put it in his own pocket.

“I figured you’d be here soon, so I waited for you. It wasn’t long at all. Shall we go?” Simone Milton dismissed the topic with those words, her eyes filled with anticipation as she looked at Nick Arthur.

Nick Arthur couldn’t help but sigh at Simone Milton’s behavior. Helplessly, he took Simone Milton with him and left.

“Let’s go!” Nick Arthur said, then seated Simone Milton in the passenger seat next to him.

This time, he didn’t ask the driver to take him there; instead, he drove himself.

After spending time with Simone Milton, Nick Arthur clearly felt that his narcolepsy was improving gradually, and he was slowly able to overcome the condition.

It was for this very reason that Nick Arthur decided to drive here himself.

For this date, Nick Arthur was well-prepared. He even researched various dating procedures online.

So their first stop was a well-known Western restaurant in the city. After lunch, they went to the main attraction of the day: the cinema.

To be honest, Nick Arthur was a little excited on his first visit to the Dazhong Cinema.

Seeing Nick Arthur’s eager demeanor, Simone Milton couldn’t help but laugh. She smiled and shook her head, then quickly joined Nick Arthur in line to buy tickets.

However, the two of them had differing opinions on what to watch.

Nick Arthur thought that “Three Lives” had great reviews. Since Simone Milton was also in the movie, its quality was likely good. They should definitely watch it.

However, Simone Milton felt that although “Three Lives” was successful in both terms of reputation and quality, it was still too intense and ended on a tragic note. Since they were going on a date, it would be more appropriate to watch some light-hearted, comedic romance movies instead.

Neither of them could persuade the other, so in the end, they decided to compromise. They agreed to watch “Three Lives” first, and then go watch a romance movie.

This way, it’s possible to relax effectively, without offending anyone.

After buying their tickets, Simone Milton and Nick Arthur went into the cinema to watch a movie.

To be honest, it was Simone Milton’s first time watching a movie in such a large theater, and it was even a movie in which she herself starred.

Looking at the familiar yet strange version of herself on the screen, Simone Milton felt momentarily lost in thought. But when she heard the sobbing around her, she felt a sense of satisfaction.

Her acting has inspired many people, which is undoubtedly a wonderful thing. Those who are deeply moved by her performance are the best rewards she could receive.

After watching the somber “Three Lives,” Nick Arthur felt greatly relieved as he left the theater.

He held Simone Milton’s hand tightly and said in a soft voice, “You have no idea how worried I was. I was afraid that you’d end up like Lyrone in the movie…”

Hearing Nick Arthur’s somewhat fragile words, Simone Milton smiled slightly. She teased him gently, “Ayan, why would you think that? It’s just a movie! Amn’t I right here by your side?”

Nick Arthur shook his head and said, “That’s not true. Although it’s just a play, to me it represents the entire life of a character… You did an excellent job, completely drawing me into the story.”

Receiving praise from her lover, Simone Milton’s cheeks turned red. She kissed Nick Arthur and said softly, “Thank you for your kind words. Let this kiss be a way to soothe your wounded heart! Shall we go watch a romance movie?”

After saying that, Simone Milton, wearing sunglasses, went to the counter and bought two tickets for the currently popular romance movies.

She waved the ticket in her hand, urging Nick Arthur to come over quickly.

After watching this funny and cheerful romantic movie, Simone Milton and Nick Arthur headed back home.

They walked under the sunset, hugging each other, allowing the sunset to elongate their silhouettes. It was a truly delightful sight.

“Hey… every time I act in a movie from now on, can we secretly go watch it together?” Simone Milton, leaning against Nick Arthur’s shoulder, murmured softly.

“Sure,” Nick Arthur turned his head slightly and smiled at Simone Milton. “Of course! Every time we watch it, let’s save the ticket stubs. That way, when we’re older, we can look back on those times.”

“Ha, that must be really interesting!” Thinking of such a scene, Simone Milton couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

After this date, the relationship between Simone Milton and Nick Arthur became even more harmonious.

Meanwhile, Katie Adams also realized, too late, that she seemed to have been blocked.

“How is that possible?” Looking at the notice that had been sent back again, Katie Adams could hardly believe her eyes.

Although “Three Lives” isn’t currently the top topic related to her, it’s not bad enough that no one wants to hire her as a spokesperson.

She’s currently at the peak of her career. How could it be that suddenly, she can’t even get any gigs anymore?

This was truly something she couldn’t understand.

“That’s how things are. Katie Adams, please don’t worry too much. Maybe this is just temporary…” Seeing how anxious Katie Adams was, Sister Hu couldn’t help but try to comfort her.

Although her comfort was completely unfounded and lacked any credibility at all, it was essentially just meant to make Katie Adams feel a little better.

“I hope it’s like you say…” Katie Adams sighed. “Let’s think positively. Anyway, I haven’t been able to focus on any engagements lately. It’s actually a good thing that there are no engagements at all.”

“It would be great if you could let it go. I still have other artists under my care, so I’ll have to leave for now.” Sister Hu glanced at the time and said to Katie Adams with a smile.

Although she’s sorry to leave at this time, she still has work to do. After all, she manages more than just Katie Adams as her artist under her.

Sister Hu has to be responsible for the other artists as well.

Moreover, she had already heard rumors in the industry that Katie Adams seemed to have offended Nick Arthur, leading him to personally issue a ban against her.

Right now, Katie Adams has no idea what Alberta Arthur’s intentions are. On top of that, Nick Arthur has issued orders to keep her away from him. Any sensible person would make the right choice in this situation.

After comforting herself like that, Sister Hu left Katie Adams’s place with a calm mind.

While Sister Hu was able to leave calmly, Katie Adams found it difficult to accept Sister Hu’s reasons for leaving.

In her opinion, Sister Hu leaving like that was simply a way of getting rid of her.

She knew that people in this circle would praise some and belittle others. So, from Sister Hu’s attitude, it’s clear that she’s probably been permanently sidelined.

Although she doesn’t know the reason, this kind of “shelving” is extremely unfavorable for her.

Even though she’s extremely popular now and can even be considered one of the top young actresses in the country.

But once it’s “frozen” in this state, it becomes very difficult to restore it to that level again.

She couldn’t afford to gamble, but there was nothing she could do about it anyway.

At the moment when Sister Hu was about to leave, Katie Adams, who had just thought through a few things, took a deep breath.

She asked Sister Hu, “Sister Hu, tell me who’s actually targeting me? Why have I suddenly stopped receiving any notices? Please at least explain things to me!”

She looked at Sister Hu with sincere eyes.

Originally, I had no intention of paying attention to Katie Adams. But after seeing the expression on her face, I was slightly moved.

She sighed and said helplessl
