Chapter 127: Chapter 127: Sea of the Stars
After the first day, Sophie kept a low profile. Every day, she came to work on time, and she politely greeted each staff member. She was very helpful to the same group of actors. Although the director often stopped her for slowing down the progress of the crew, everyone was very fond of this young newcomer, and everyone seemed to tolerate her.
Edie thought of the hostility and arrogance of Sophie on the first day and could not help but comfort herself. Maybe she just made a mistake. After all, Sophie was only a nineteen-year-old girl and perhaps just had some immature vanity.
So, the next week, the shooting was still relatively prosperous. Edie also quickly adapted to the life of the crew, except for a phone call from Stuart. Her other time was used for fitness and remembrance of the script.
On the weekend, when Edie was still thinking about whether to go back to the Villa, the driver was already there waiting to pick her up at the resort. When she got in the car, she was puzzled and asked, "Did Stuart send you to pick me up?"
"Yes, Edie, Stuart said that there was a significant thing in the evening, so he sent me to pick you up."
Edie knew the character of Stuart. It is estimated that he did not explain too much to the driver. So she didn’t ask any more questions, she just waited to return to the Villa to personally ask Stuart. The time of arrival was the time of eating dinner.
Edie had to swallow the question for the time being and had dinner with Stuart. After the meal was finished, Edie couldn’t wait to ask, "Stuart, what is going on tomorrow, you let the driver pick me up without telling me."
Stuart did not speak; she just took out a beautiful envelope and handed it to her. Edie took it with some doubts, opened the envelope and found that it was actually a pure white bronzing invitation. I sincerely invite Mr. Yates to visit the Beck Mansion tomorrow evening to participate in the charity auction.
Because of an auction, Stuart specially picked her up from the crew, what could she say. Edie’s heart jumped, holding the invitation in her hand tightly and looked up nervously, watching Stuart, "This...is this..."
Stuart saw her little face become red and puffed because of her nervousness and excitement. Her eyes were even softer.
"Yes, your mother’s necklace Sea of the Stars, will be at this auction, it was taken as the final one, just for tomorrow night."
As soon as he mentioned her mother, Edie’s eyes were slightly red. She looked at the Stuart and said solemnly, "Stuart, as long as you can help me get the necklace back, I promise you that I will do anything for you."
Stuart looked at Edie, and there was some pity in his eyes. He knew how much effort the woman had made for the necklace, so he would definitely help her, both for responsibility and obligation.
"Don’t worry, I promised you, and I will definitely get the necklace back."
Edie suddenly jumped out of the sofa and excitedly hugged Stuart. "Stuart, thank you so much, you are my lucky star!"
Stuart was not accustomed to being approached by strangers. At the moment when Edie got close to him, his body sat stiffly, letting Edie hold him. The soft body and the fragrant body scent came, and Stuart was almost ready to have some kind of reaction.
His long-lost heart was also beating wildly at this moment. Everything was just because she got inadvertently close to him. She had such a great influence on him now?
Stuart smiled, but he didn’t know why he did not hate her getting close after under the cognition that he always hated being influenced by people. Of course, Edie did not realize that it was only a few seconds, and the mind of Stuart was actually flashing so many thoughts.
She was just too happy, and she couldn’t help herself to express her gratitude to Stuart. But she didn’t have any thoughts in her heart. Therefore, Edie did not find anything wrong with Stuart, and she asked excitedly, "Is there anything I need to do?"
"What you need to do is to have a good rest tonight. Someone will pick you up tomorrow to take you to get a dress and make you look good."
Edie said slightly, "Do you still want me to look good?" She had never participated in an auction, and she knew for the first time that there were so many things the rich people had to pay attention to?
"The auction time is in the evening. There is a charity dinner before that, so you need to wear a dress to attend."
Edie nodded, "Okay, I did know that."
"I have something to do tomorrow night, maybe it will be late, you can choose to wait for me, or you can go to dinner first."
"I want to go first." Edie looked at Stuart with her big eyes. She thinks that she can see her mother’s necklace right away, Edie cannot sit right now, not to mention having to wait until tomorrow night, she just wanted to hurry to get there. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
Stuart knew her mood and guessed that she would make such a decision. "Well, I will arrange for someone to send you tomorrow morning. When you leave the bodyguard, wait for me to go back."
Stuart got Edie to keep the invitation. "Isn’t there just one copy of this invitation? I took it, do you have others?" Stuart looked a little proud, "I can go in without an invitation."
"Yes, with the size of L.N. Group, with the name of Sir Yates, why would you need an invitation to get into a small auction?"
Edie put the invitation up. Stuart seemed to be thinking about something and slowly opened his mouth, "If I help you take the necklace back..." Edie interrupted him and said, "I know what you are worried about. Don’t worry. Even if the necklace is taken back, our deal is still valid. I will definitely help you cope with the people in your family."
Stuart heard her words, and he felt ridiculous. What he wanted to say was not that at all. He wanted to ask her if he helped her get the necklace back, and she had no bound, whether she is willing to stay with him. Edie saw Stuart and didn’t talk. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
She thought he was not good at saying it. She said, "The action of your family is still quite slow. It has been more than a month. They haven’t sent anyone yet. Are you worried that you can’t solve it within half a year and our contract will have expired and then I will leave? Don’t worry. I will solve this problem for you. If it can’t be solved within half a year, it will be fine if I stay with you for a month or two after. I don’t have a boyfriend anyway."
Looking at the woman in front of him and her face was full of seriousness, Stuart swallowed back what he wanted to say. "Then, if it is still not solved for another month or two?" Stuart stared at the face of Edie and acted like he didn’t care.
Edie’s little face has a tangled expression. She was thinking about Stuart and how he is so dedicated to her own affairs, she has to help him in any way that she can. Then she bit down on her lower lip, "Then in a year, I promise your family will believe that you are not gay, okay?"
The thin lips of Stuart showed a smile, "Okay."
