Chapter 4: She Is Rich Customer Harvester

As Frost walked, he fell into contemplation. He recalled the people around him since childhood.

His parents resided in the UK all year round.

His father was devoted to setting up politics in the UK, aspiring to become the Prime Minister. His mother, naturally, desired to become the first lady and always stuck by his father, caring very little for him.

His classmates at the prestigious school flattered him insincerely because of their family background or appearance. But when real trouble arose, none of them were around.

Although his aunt was kind and amiable, she actually had always wanted her son to inherit the family business, and his grandfather deceived him, so his aunt was very guarded around him.

He understood that the only people who genuinely cared for him were his grandfather and grandmother. His grandmother had passed away, and his grandfather had fallen ill...

So, there were no longer any people who cared for him in this world...

Thinking this, Frost recalled everything that had just happened.

"That girl sacrificed herself to save me..."

For Frost, who had never believed in family affection or emotions, he simply couldn't understand Bianca's actions.

He wasn't touched; he was more doubtful.

Nine times out of ten, that girl was trying to fawn over me after knowing my identity!

But even if she's trying to butter me up, it only makes sense for her to stay alive, right? Isn't she worried about dying? Frost's mind was unsettled.

When you travel to vacation destinations around the world, you will always see mysterious, majestic, and tightly closed vacation villas.

For example, deep in the Kenyan National Park, there is a runway with a luxurious castle in the distance;on the most beautiful island in Tahiti, there is a grand estate hidden deep in the coconut grove; and at the foot of Sky City, passing through a long ancient tunnel, the exit is another peak of Machu Picchu, where there is an invisible villa built with the lightest and most expensive environmentally friendly materials.

The villa's master bedroom's floor-to-ceiling windows overlook the full view of Sky City—these are all vacation villas of the Leng family.

The Leng family's villa in Thailand naturally has all the advantages of the land and beautiful scenery, even more so than the location where the recent advertisement was shot.

Back at the vacation villa, Frost's first action was to call the director.

"Is this Director Leng? Is there anything you need?"

The director had won numerous awards both domestically and internationally and had even made it onto the list for the Oscars, but at this moment, he was very respectful.

"The model for today, Bianca, what do you know about her situation?" Frost pointed at Bianca's resume with a marker.

"Oh, you mean the girl who had the accident during today's shoot! Well... it's not easy to say."

The director paused for a while before continuing.

"She's a yoga instructor, and although her skills and qualifications are good, her reputation in the industry isn't great. It seems she's known... as a 'rich customer harvesting machine' by people in the circle. That's why I put her as the last substitute. By the way, Mr. Frost, about today's accident..."

"It's not your fault!" Frost interrupted the director.

After hanging up the phone, he called in his assistant. The assistant told him that according to the contract, they should compensate Bianca with one hundred thousand yuan, which had already been prepared.

However, Frost ordered: one million.

The assistant understood Frost's character.

His extravagant generosity probably meant that he had completely rejected this person in his heart and didn't want to waste another word on her, using a huge sum of money to sever their relationship.

Frost looked at Bianca's photo, that beautiful face—when he was closest to her, they were only a fist's distance apart, and she had a pair of deer-like eyes.

He once saw himself in those innocent eyes.

But unexpectedly, this seemingly pure girl was still just a gold digger. The thought made him scoff, and he threw Bianca's resume into the wastebasket.

Ignoring Jenn's protests, Lucas brought Bianca back to the vacation resort he had rented; it was already late at night.

After drinking a whole bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon, Jenn finally came up with a compromise: taking advantage of the rumour, create a new image for Lucas: a chaste and high-quality idol with an unresolved mysterious first love.

It was clear that this "unresolved mysterious first love" referred to Bianca.

When Lucas had not yet achieved fame, he was just a small extra and had endured the disdain and bullying of others.

Once, when playing a small role as a street thug who was beaten up by the lead actor, the male star demanded Lucas to not dodge his punches when they came, but to actively meet them, to provoke his desire to fight and make the visual effect seem real.

Lucas gritted his teeth and let the star's punches land on him, even losing two teeth, without complaining. But everyone only paid attention to the star, and the most tragic part was that he didn't even have a clear close-up in the final cut.

After struggling for many years with no progress in his career, Lucas was both poor and disheartened, feeling extremely hopeless about life and himself.

It was at this time that he met Bianca, who was handing out flyers in the street and pulled him into a yoga studio.

Bianca knew he couldn't afford a membership, but she sensed that Lucas needed comfort for his body and mind.

She taught him yoga poses, guided him in meditation, and helped him relax. At first, being restless and agitated, Lucas couldn't immerse himself at all.

But Bianca didn't give up. She not only persisted in practicing poses and meditation with him but also let him stay in the half-basement she rented when he couldn't afford accommodation.

After a deep meditation session, Lucas unexpectedly completely immersed himself.

As a clear and resonant bell sounded, he opened his eyes, and at that moment, he had rekindled his determination to continue working hard. Lucas had fallen in love with meditation.

Meditation not only calmed Lucas down but unexpectedly transformed his temperament.

Although he still longed for fame, he became quiet and gentle. There was always a soft light in his eyes, making him appear particularly clean and pure.

With this new temperament, Lucas also seized the opportunity and became popular, rising to become one of the most expensive and sought-after young idols overnight.

Meanwhile, Bianca remained an ordinary yoga instructor, but with the addition of a celebrity friend.

Lucas couldn't forget his past hardships and knew that without Bianca, he wouldn't be enjoying his current glory. He wanted to repay Bianca and share his success with her. Of course, all of this was premised on him being a big star.

As for Bianca, she always saw Lucas as a good friend. She didn't need her friends to repay her, nor did she need her friends to share their glory with her. She could achieve glory on her terms!

Lucas's attentiveness made her particularly uncomfortable, even annoyed. She solemnly told him, "Never help someone who didn't ask for your help—like me!"

During this shoot, the hotel provided by the crew was far and dilapidated.

Bianca had been persistently staying at the crew's hotel. However, tonight, Bianca had no strength to return to the hotel which was a three-hour drive away, and she was also worried about ruining her appearance.

So she reluctantly agreed to let Lucas take her back to the vacation resort he had arranged.

At Lucas's request, the entire resort had been furnished with the freshest flowers and fruits, and her resting room had been carefully prepared.

The best doctor in town arrived and examined Bianca's face and body.

The itching on her face was identified as an allergic reaction, but they couldn't determine what she was allergic to yet, and her body was fine.

The doctor said that it was fortunate someone administered CPR to Bianca in time, otherwise, she could have continued to suffer from an allergic shock and, in severe cases, it could even be fatal.

Hearing this, Bianca lightly bit her tongue and thought of Mr. Frost. She thought, that Mr.Frost might be as cold as ice and devoid of humanity, but his tongue did have warmth.

Nonsense, a cold-blooded person could be a lizard!

Bianca couldn't help but chuckle.
