Had she forgotten she quit halfway through the season, flew overseas without discussing anything with the director, and left everyone to clean up the mess?And now she wanted to claim the show’s popularity had something to do with her? Wasn’t that the result of the entire production team’s effort?“Miss Song, I truly don’t understand what mindset you were in when you said that.”Hearing Aurora’s reply, even Yvonne felt a flicker of embarrassment as she remembered her own behavior.Still, she cleared her throat lightly.“I’m just saying… I did participate in the first season. I think we can talk to the director about filming a second one.”“And then? What exactly are you getting at?”Aurora actually took her suggestion seriously. But judging by Yvonne’s tone, was she implying the second season’s cast should include her?Sure enough, the next second
Then she figured it was better to give up her studio.Suddenly, Yvonne thought of the show’s second season.The situation online had only grown worse.Right now, the only solution was to find a way to clear her name. As she reconsidered the possibilities, she realized that since the show still had a second season, why couldn’t she request to continue participating?No matter what, even with all the controversy, the show had made her famous.And as one of the judges, if she suddenly vanished without a trace, the audience definitely wouldn’t accept it.With that in mind, Yvonne decided to hire some online boosters to push the show to a new level.After that, she would talk to the director and say she was willing to return, promising she would film properly this time.Yvonne had always been someone who acted once she made up her mind; no one could stop her. When the show resumed, she and Aurora would appear far more harmonious than before.And since Aurora was now Lucas’ current partner
Just thinking about it made Tessa let out a quiet laugh.But Sean immediately reminded her, “I’m warning you—you’d better not start acting recklessly right now.“If anything comes up, I’ll let you know. Your only job is to follow the plan and do what you’re supposed to do.”“I know, stop nagging,” Tessa muttered, reluctant but forced to agree.Sean could see the reluctance all over her face.He still repeated his warning, “I’ve told you many times—what we’re doing is important. One mistake, and we’ll both be finished.“So if you refuse to listen, think carefully about the consequences. Why should I even work with you then?”“But I’m your daughter, aren’t I?”The moment she said it, Tessa felt ridiculous.A man like Sean never lacked daughters.And in their world, who genuinely cared about their children unless they only had one and pinned all their hopes on them?Otherwise, Tessa didn’t think being someone’s child mattered at all.“You know exactly what I mean. Are we really going to a
If anyone who knew her caught sight of this, how would she ever explain it to Grace?She had just sworn at the Walton estate that she had nothing to hide and wasn’t deceiving Grace in any way.If anyone saw this, there’d be no way she could talk her way out of it.“Tessa, you went to see that woman. What did she say?”Sean was genuinely curious about what Grace might have asked.After dealing with her for so many years, he knew exactly what kind of person she was.He understood her nature better than anyone.“Nothing much. Mom didn’t suspect anything.”Hearing that, Sean looked doubtful. He narrowed his eyes and asked, puzzled,“Are you sure that’s true?”Tessa felt her impatience rising.“Of course it’s true. Why would I lie to you? What would I gain from that?”Before Sean could speak, she added, “Besides, we’re tied together now. If I lie to you, what good would that do me?”Sean nodded, finding her words reasonable.“You’re right. We’re in this together.”He inclined his head sligh
“Madam Grace, I understand why you’re doing this. You’ve carried the Walton family on your shoulders for so many years.”Arnold had always admired Grace deeply.After following her for so long, he knew exactly what kind of person she was.That was why he chose to stay by her side.Many people never understood his loyalty, because Arnold was practically good at everything.Even though he was getting older, none of his skills had ever faded.Because of that, many tried to lure him away.But he stayed with the Walton family, determined to give everything he had and to protect both Grace and Aurora.He had long regarded them as his own daughter and granddaughter.Thinking of this only strengthened his sense of duty.He had never liked Tessa, and now he finally had a chance to act.There was no way he would let it slip by.No matter what, he had to give Grace a clear answer.After Arnold left, Grace couldn’t help letting out a long sigh before sinking back into the sofa.She still couldn’t
After all, Grace had been impatient with him just moments ago.She’d practically pushed him out, telling him to go handle other household matters.Even though he was the housekeeper, most responsibilities had long been delegated to others.He actually had nothing urgent to do and could have remained inside the room.But Grace’s reaction earlier had been so sharp that she forced him out without hesitation.Thinking about it now, Arnold knew she must have been angry.Otherwise, she wouldn’t have reacted so strongly.And now that she suddenly called him back in, something must have happened.When Arnold stepped inside, Grace’s expression was dark and unreadable.“Madam Grace, what would you like me to do?”This time, he didn’t hide his intention and asked directly.“Help me look into who Tessa has been spending time with lately.”Hearing that, Arnold was taken aback.“Madam Grace, you mean…?”In the past, Grace never doubted Tessa. No matter what Tessa did, Grace trusted her completely.T
