MasukWhat on earth was his boss doing?He had looked furious just moments ago, yet now he was calmly replying to messages with a faint smile on his face.It was obvious.He looked almost smitten.No, wait. Was that even the right word to describe his boss?Desmond felt like the world had suddenly become something he no longer recognized.“Let’s go. We’re heading to the hospital now.”“Yes, Mr. Carter.”Desmond snapped back to his senses.This wasn’t the time to linger.Before leaving, Lucas added, “Make sure the online news is suppressed as quickly as possible.”“Don’t worry, I’ve already given the instructions. They know what to do.”Lucas didn’t say much more, only letting out a quiet “Mm.”At this point, they still didn’t know exactly what had happened.The only thing that had to be ensured was that no one died at the completion ceremony.As for everything else, they could investigate it slowly afterward and find out who was behind it.Lucas was certain of one thing—the incident at the
Lucas had always felt that Desmond lacked potential.He had been by his side for nearly five or six years—didn’t he even understand something as basic as reading the room?Today, Lucas was in a hurry to deal with matters and head over to Aurora.And yet, at such a critical moment, Desmond chose to come and bother him.At that thought, Lucas’s gaze turned even colder.But Desmond was anxious. “Mr. Carter, I really do have something to report today. Otherwise, I wouldn’t dare disturb you at a time like this.”“I know you’re busy with Miss Walton’s situation, but what I have to report is just as urgent—it concerns her.”Lucas’s interest was piqued.He instinctively lifted his head to look at Desmond. “What nonsense are you talking about?”“Mr. Carter, take a look at what’s happening online. It’s everywhere. They’re all talking about Miss Walton.”Desmond handed his phone over and said seriously, “If this isn’t handled properly, Miss Walton is finished. The company might not even survive.”
“Wasn’t he supposed to go up as our representative to speak at the completion ceremony today? If he’s injured, that means something’s gone wrong with the ceremony too.”Aurora nodded grimly.She and Megan were thinking the same thing.Daniel getting hurt was just the trigger. The people behind it were really trying to sabotage the completion ceremony.This was the first project their studio had ever secured.And now, right when the project was about to wrap up, someone resorted to such underhanded tactics.It was obvious they were targeting the studio itself.Aurora took a deep breath, the confusion in her eyes fading into something heavier.“So we need to get back there as soon as possible. We can’t waste any more time here. The longer we stay, the more chance they have to make a move against the studio.“You know, Megan, right now the studio is all I have left. I really can’t afford to lose it.”As she spoke, her eyes glistened faintly.But this wasn’t the time to show weakness.Mega
“Alright. I already booked a ticket back the moment I knew filming would end today.”“Good. Then change it. We’ll take the earliest flight back.”Just as she finished speaking, Jason walked over to them.Seeing this, Aurora’s expression softened slightly.She remained polite when facing him.“Miss Walton, what’s going on? You look in a hurry.”Hearing that, Aurora shook her head helplessly.“Mr. Smith, I need to head back. I can’t stay here any longer.”“Is filming paused now? I remember I have a week off.”The director nodded.“That’s right. This period is yours to manage. You don’t have to stay here wasting time.“If you have something urgent, go ahead and leave. No need to hold yourself back here.”Hearing this, Aurora didn’t want to waste another second.Staying here would only cost time, and she had no idea what condition Daniel was in.On top of that, things at the studio couldn’t be delayed either.Right now, Ian was the only one there holding things together.If someone took ad
“Otherwise, you wouldn’t be talking to me like this.”Ian felt that Aurora truly understood him.“Boss, you really do know me best.”At those words, Aurora’s heart skipped a beat. It seemed the completion ceremony really had gone wrong.No matter how carefully she had told Ian to keep watch, it was impossible to guard against people with bad intentions.Things like this were simply too outrageous to prevent completely.“Alright, back to the point, what exactly happened?”Hearing Ian keep circling around the topic only made Aurora more anxious.The moment Aurora said that, Ian felt even worse.“I don’t even know where to start. The situation is a complete mess right now. Boss, I really need you to come back as soon as possible. Don’t stay in Lakeshore City. I can’t handle this on my own.”Hearing this, Aurora couldn’t help but take a deep breath.“Alright, just tell me clearly first. What’s the situation now?”“At first, someone spread rumors saying there were problems with our company’
Because Megan had always been a sensitive and gentle girl, whenever something truly happened, she would be the first to step forward and comfort others.But in truth, she was the one who felt the most afraid.Two sensitive and tender girls, understanding each other like this, supporting one another all the way, it had not been easy for them to come this far.In the end, under Aurora’s uneasy gaze, Megan still chose to answer the call.Even if something had really gone wrong, it would have to be faced sooner or later.There was no point in the two of them hesitating here.“Hello, Ian.”Megan’s gentle voice carried through the phone.In truth, she felt just as uneasy inside, unsure whether picking up the call had been the right decision.But just as Aurora had said, no matter what happened, it had to be faced.Avoiding it would not change anything.So why dwell on it? Living peacefully and happily was what mattered most.“Miss Quinn, have you and the boss finished filming?”Ian’s voice s
They could all understand that.But with an opportunity right in front of her, it was still worth trying.“What exactly do you want me to help you with?”Philip’s authoritative, composed voice rang out once more.At those words, Yvonne’s eyes instantly grew glossy.Seeing her reaction, Philip felt p
“So, you’re all doing this because of me?”Lucas slowly curved his lips. “What is it? Did you suddenly turn silly?”Aurora blinked, momentarily stunned.“I just never thought I’d deserve to be treated so well by all of you.”Back at the Walton family home, even her own biological mother had never tr
To be honest, he truly did not want to see Yvonne at all.Who would want to work with an artist with so many scandals and no sense of integrity?Even if he brought her back, it would only mean trouble for himself.The director had no interest in doing something so thankless, especially after what ha
Aurora understood all of this very clearly. Precisely because of that, she loved Lucas even more and chose to open her heart to him.Aurora knew that only someone who truly loved her would be willing to do all these things for her.Otherwise, everything would be meaningless.If a person could not ev
