Something Is Wrong
Just as expected, something is amiss. Who is it that’s trying to sow discord between Vinson and me?
Jacob? No, Jacob doesn’t know about my relationship with Vinson. Furthermore, the last thing he
wants is for me to remember him. Hence, there’s no way he would dare try something funny with me. In
that case. Hmm… who else can it be?
Arielle narrowed her gaze as her mind cycled through many suspects. However, she ended up ruling
them out one by one.
Subsequently, she gave Vinson a call, wanting to tell him about what happened. However, the moment
she got through, she changed her mind at once.
I have to be patient in order to snare a big fish. If nothing happens between Vinson and me, the
mastermind will never reveal him or herself. Therefore, for my plan to work, I have to pretend to play
along with the enemy. Who knows, they might be powerful enough to tap our phone call.
At that moment, Vinson’s voice rang out over the phone, for she had forgotten to end the call.
“Hello, Sannie?” His voice was raspy from having just been woken up.
Taking a deep breath, Arielle feigned anger and demanded, “Vinson, what have you done!”
Vinson was taken aback by her tone, for Arielle had never spoken to him in such an angry voice before.
With his sleepiness gone, Vinson sat up and asked, “Sannie, what’s wrong? What happened?”
“When will you be back?” Her voice was unimaginably icy.
“About… one or two more days. What is it?”
She replied coldly, “I don’t care whether it’s work or personal, come back right away once you have
settled things over there! There’s something I want to ask you about.”
Vinson was all concerned. “Tell me what happened?”
“It’s nothing.” Arielle’s voice began to calm down. “Just return as soon as possible.”
“I understand.”
After hearing Vinson’s response, Arielle ended the call.
Right after that, she rushed to her study and began typing a sequence of code furiously on her
keyboard.
Soon, a string of code emerged on her screen.
Just as she expected, someone was indeed tapping her phone.
Hence, she felt relieved that she had pretended to be angry during the call earlier.
Pursing her lips, she logged into her secret email account and sent Vinson a message.
It was an account equipped with a powerful firewall that only few knew about, making it impossible to
hack.
The contents of the email she sent were simple. All she did was attach the two pictures with the
comment: Let’s patiently reel in the big fish.
Once she sent it out, Arielle took a deep breath, hoping that Vinson would quickly read the email.
With that, she pretended to look flustered as she left Maple Mansion.
Until she was sure that she wasn’t being watched, she had to continue acting as if Vinson had betrayed
her.
Subsequently, she spent the entire morning helping out at the branch of Maureen’s Kitchen.
After the publicity from Amazing Tastes, the restaurant’s crowd increased instead. It wasn’t until it was
time to meet Sam that Arielle left the restaurant and headed to the film studio located on the outskirts of
Jadeborough.
At that moment, Sam was already waiting for her together with the movie’s producer.
The producer, who was a member of Nightshire Entertainment, was aware of Arielle’s relationship with
Vinson. Thus, he treated Arielle with the utmost respect.
Once the contract was signed, filming could start at once.
Jason was already there before Arielle met the film crew.
A smug expression descended upon his face once he heard that Arielle had been confirmed as the
female lead.
