Chapter 2711

As Rita lay in bed and wrapped herself up completely in the blanket, she finally felt a hint of warmth."Come on, Rita. More challenges await you tomorrow," she mumbled to herself.The next morning, Rita got up as if nothing happened. After all, she had become used to the way things were in the family after enduring it for so many years. Moreover, not having to face those people day in and day out was already a rare joy.However, her rare good mood did not last long. As soon as she arrived at the newspaper office, she was subjected to some embarrassing remarks from her nitpicking older colleagues."Oh wow, our little princess is here so early. But what's the point of that? She can't even manage to get an interview.""That's where you don't understand. Even though she can't secure an interview, she still needs to show the right attitude. Otherwise, why would the higher-ups keep her around? Just because she's a princess?"The two annoying male colleagues exchanged a smirk. Their vo

Other reporters also nodded. "Yeah, I don't understand what she and her PR team are thinking. If she accepts our interview, coupled with her reputation, wouldn't she become famous in the country overnight? I know she's made a name for herself internationally, but back here, no one else knows her besides her die-hard fans and people in the industry.""It's just one of those mysteries. Maybe artists are just different from ordinary people like us. It doesn't seem like Claire cares about making a lot of money. She just wants to dance her own dance.""I still don't get it. It's not like she can't dance well after getting interviewed by us.""I've already told you. How can we mere ordinary people understand the thinking of an artist?"Rita waited all day until the end of the workday without receiving any message from Claire. She was very frustrated. Was her approach wrong after all?However, after watching a lot of Claire's videos, the only conclusion she drew was that this woman was n

The other reporters did not join in with Chase's remarks. After all, Chase had tried several times without success, yet a newcomer had struck gold. They could not help but feel unhappy about it.However, they knew better than to belittle their interview subject. If those words reached Claire's ears, it might jeopardize any future dealings with her. All the same, they could not help but feel curious. How did Rita manage to secure the interview when everyone else failed?Back at home, Rita did not waste any time either. She knew her colleagues would gossip about her, but she had grown accustomed to such idle talk. Her study at home had become her office, with information about Claire covering an entire wall.After learning about Claire's relationship with Sherman, she also looked into Sherman's background. The more she learned about this man, the more amazed she was at his achievements. She had not expected someone so young to have such capabilities.'No wonder even Dad tried to get

At the newspaper agency, the other colleagues could not help but ask Rita a few questions when they saw her so cheerful. However, Rita was good at keeping secrets, so not a single word leaked out of her lips."Hmph, let's just see how long you can remain this cocky. It's just securing a small interview. If you don't do well, this interview might as well have been given to someone else earlier," Chase remarked.Rita disregarded Chase's words. "Chase, why not focus on writing your own article instead? Then again, I understand if you can't do it well. After all, Claire has rejected you many times. I can't help but wonder if she doesn't like you. You'll definitely mess up the interview if I let you do it. Chase, can't you just focus on writing your piece? I'm going to attend to my work now."With that, she grabbed her bag and walked into the coffee shop where she had arranged to meet Claire. She was earlier by nearly an hour as she wanted to go over her questions once more.Half an hou

"We need the public to be involved in our art form. Artists don't create just for themselves to admire their own art," said Claire, showcasing such deep insights at such a young age, which surprised Rita."I didn't expect that it was from such pure intention that you've accepted my interview. I thought…" Rita trailed off.Claire smiled lightly. "You thought what? That I just wanted to become more famous? Well, that's one of my goals. If I become more famous, wouldn't it also mean that more audiences get to know about contemporary dance? My fame and dance are definitely complementary."Claire's straightforwardness was in stark contrast to the impression she had left on Rita during their first encounter. Rita was deeply impressed by Claire's charm, and the interview proceeded in a very relaxed manner."One last question. It's about your personal life, and you don't have to answer if you're not comfortable with it," said Rita."Oh, don't worry about it. As a dancer, I'm also a public

Serena opened a bottle of mineral water and inserted a straw before handing it to Claire's lips. "Listening to you talk with that reporter just now, I thought you were the kind of young person who stands up for the entire dance industry. Even I, a cold-hearted woman, wanted to applaud you."Claire glanced at her indifferently. "What? Are you saying that my acting was too fake?""No, I'm praising you. But I'm still curious, why did you choose an unknown reporter? I mean, there were so many reputable reporters fighting to interview you, yet you turned them all down, saying you were waiting for a more opportune time. The way I see it, Rita is a newcomer in the industry. She doesn't even have much influence in New Capital Times. Aren't you lowering your standards by letting her interview you?"Claire touched up her lipstick and smirked disdainfully. "It's true that Rita doesn't have much influence to interview me, and her status doesn't quite match mine. But she is a Russell, which make

Then, Claire would naturally announce her relationship with Sherman in her next interviews with other reporters. She wanted the other women to know that Sherman had her beside him, so that they would think twice before trying to get close to him."Have you bought the pastries I asked for?" asked Claire.Serena handed her an exquisite basket. "Yup! You said they were hard to get, so I lined up before dawn. Luckily, I went early because it didn't take long for them to sell out as soon as the store opened."Claire looked at the exquisite pastries in the basket with a faint smile. "He likes sweets. Seems quite contradictory to his appearance, doesn't it?""Yes, it's quite contradictory indeed..."As they talked, they arrived at the entrance of the Parr Group building. To avoid attracting attention, they both took the underground passage.Claire looked at the dimly lit underground parking lot. As they walked toward the elevator, she envisioned a day when everyone would see her walk op

Sherman had no intention of taking their relationship any further. No matter what reasons Claire might have, he could not accept her doing such a thing."No! I don't want us to become like strangers. We could've been the most loving couple, yet you refused to forgive me for my momentary lapse of judgment. But I know, deep down, you still love me, right? Who else can get as close to you as I can? Who else can be as intimate with you?"Claire anxiously sought confirmation of her special spot from Sherman's eyes. However, he coldly pried her fingers away from his waist."Claire, you are special to me, but I have a long life ahead of me, and you're not the only one who can fill it. You know? I didn't have any unusual reaction either the last time Rita got close to me."Claire could not maintain her smile anymore when she saw how serious Sherman was. "What do you mean by that? Are you saying you want to be with that woman instead? You only met her once at my performance, and she was unr

Chapter 2719

Fortunately, after investigating, she found out that Sherman never had any other woman and was faithful over the years.Claire was confident that she, and only she, had been in his heart all those years. Still, whenever Claire wanted to take the relationship further, Sherman always pushed her away indifferently.Claire understood that he wanted to punish her, but had it not been long enough?Another argument ended between them, leaving Claire exhausted. She took a step back in surrender and said, "Fine, fine, fine. Let's leave it at that. I know it's my fault. I wanted to make you happy today, but it turned out to be the opposite. I won't say anything more. I'll go back now. There's a charity event this Sunday. I'll save you your usual seat."Sherman remained silent. It was not until she was about to leave that he asked, "The seat you saved for me last time—was it really number 008?""What?" Claire turned sharply, thinking Sherman had found out about the mistake the staff made las

Rita returned to the office with the interview recordings and notes, only to be summoned by the boss as soon as she entered."I heard you've clashed with some of the senior colleagues in the office again," the boss said without looking up from his work.Rita looked puzzled. "What do you mean, 'again'? It's so obvious they're the ones causing trouble for me! You gave me this almost impossible task, but I managed to secure the interviewee. Isn't that impressive? Yet, instead of praising me, I'm getting scolded for standing up for myself against all the ridicule? It's because I'm a newcomer, isn't it?""Just look at yourself. I haven't even said anything, and you've given me this whole essay! I'm not saying you should silently endure their ridicule, but those people are your seniors. You should at least show them some respect. Don't you know how to give some surface pleasantries? Why do you insist on talking back to them? To make matters worse, they came to me to complain about you. Th
