Chapter 126

Author: River Fish
Blake led Phoebe into Flynn's office, where the desk was a total mess.

Now that they were back in the office, Flynn had calmed down. He now had to face the game development issues.

Blake pulled out a chair and invited Phoebe to sit. Flynn couldn't stand seeing him fawn over her, so he snorted and looked at Phoebe. "You're still here?"

It had been a long time since they'd seen each other. There hadn't been time earlier to take a closer look, so Phoebe scrutinized him now. "Weren't you curious?

    Phoebe flipped through the file. Erin had graduated from a proper acting program and had excellent credentials. She said to Megan, "I'm guessing she doesn't lack offers from management companies. Why hasn't she signed with anyone?"Megan said, "It's true that she doesn't have an agency. Either the big companies don't need someone of her type and wouldn't give her much of a push even if they signed her, or the small companies can't give her the kind of opportunities she wants."Phoebe really liked Erin. First, she was a free agent, and second, Phoebe loved the kind of raw, intense energy Erin brought to her roles. In the future, she could cast her in many female-centric films. Erin's looks, like Joseph's, were strikingly telegenic. She was full of star potential.Phoebe said to Megan, "Reach out to her so we can get her signed. Once things are more or less settled, bring me in.""No problem." Megan was also determined to land Erin. As a top-tier agent, her eye for talent was excelle

    Gideon's expression hadn't really changed, but he gave off a terrifying vibe. Glen, who was in the front seat, was so tense that he had practically turned to stone. The sound of his breathing was barely audible.Gideon wasn't in a good place and lowered his gaze. Jealousy was a brutal thing. It was strong enough to drive a person insane."Maybe call Phoebe and ask her about it? Or you don't even have to call. She'll definitely explain everything to you," Ian said, genuinely worried.Gideon looked over at him.Only then did Ian notice how dark his gaze had gone. They'd known each other for years, so he knew Gideon's coldness stemmed from his dislike of social contact. His personality was just naturally aloof, unlike Connor's arrogant, self-centered kind of iciness.Gideon was usually a pretty laidback guy. But at that moment, Ian could tell that there was actually something he seriously cared about—that was why his eyes now looked like that.Ian asked, "Uh, how about you call Phoe

    Phoebe finally smiled. "Megan, I love that line. I'm going to save it for Connor."She was going to keep moving forward. She had someone she liked now, so she wasn't going to let Connor drag her backward or upset Gideon.It was normal to feel annoyed once in a while, but she wasn't going to live like that forever.At some point, without them noticing, Connor's car had pulled up along the road where Phoebe and Megan were standing.The car door opened, and Sandra got out. She handed Phoebe a business card and said, "Ms. Stanton, contact me anytime if you need anything."Phoebe didn't budge.Connor lowered the car window and gave her a look, signaling for her to hurry up and take the card. He didn't say a single word, but his presence was overwhelming.As a talent agent, Megan felt that if Connor ever played a domineering CEO, he wouldn't even need to act. He just had to sit in front of a camera to nail the role.He was ridiculously handsome, but he was also too overbearing. He wa

    Phoebe didn't leave right away. She wanted to stay outside for some air.Megan stood beside her, quietly watching her reactions. When she saw that Phoebe looked a little less grim, she finally dared to ask, "Ms. Stanton, you know Connor Russell?"Phoebe already thought of Megan as one of her own, so she didn't hide the truth. "He's my ex-husband."While Phoebe and Connor had talked inside the private room, Megan had taken the chance to dig into his background. Only then did she realize that he was way more powerful than she'd imagined.The Russells were an old-money family in Seavale, their wealth built over generations of smooth sailing. During Philip's generation, they had real estate projects nationwide before branching into heavy industry.Now that Connor was in charge, he had successfully steered the company into new industries. Russell Group was a titan.A few of Seavale's landmark buildings—the ones tourists always rushed to take photos at—were all Russell Group projects.

    The moment Gideon heard that Connor had gone to look for Phoebe, he immediately cut his meeting short and rushed over.The driver drove, and Ian sat in the back seat with Gideon.Even as Gideon's friend, Ian felt suffocated by the atmosphere. He couldn't help trying to calm him. "Gideon, if Connor wants to see Phoebe, he'll just find another way, even if you stop him once. You can't keep getting this worked up every time. You'll only lose your cool."Gideon's expression looked perfectly normal, but beneath that calm, unreadable face was anxiety and panic rooted deep in his heart. His fingers were laced together in front of him, his gaze dark and unfathomable. His presence was cold and imposing.It was only after he got together with Phoebe that he realized just how badly he craved love. He wanted to stick to her at all times and make sure she never left his line of sight.He had read a few psychology books and thought that this might be some kind of compensation for a childhood wi

    Phoebe said, "I'm not promising you anything."She wasn't scum; she wasn't going to give Connor false hope or toy with his feelings on purpose. She just needed to patiently wait for him to accept the reality of the situation. Once he did, she could finally say goodbye without lifting a finger.Connor's expression darkened. "So I'm going to be waiting a long time?"Phoebe strung him along. "Try to be patient."With that, she turned to leave for good this time.Connor watched her walk toward the door and clenched his fists without realizing that he was doing it. All of a sudden, he couldn't stop himself from calling out her name. "Phoebe."She put her hand on the doorknob and turned back.He stood, keeping his eyes locked on her. "Don't make me wait too long."His gaze burned her for a second. Was he actually capable of looking at her with those seemingly affectionate eyes? Did he even know what he was doing?She had to admit that when a scumbag pretended to be devoted, anyone w
