Ella waved her hands to Eden dismissively and continued talking to Yang. "I have been abroad. How have you been lately?"
Ella looked at the Maserati behind him and wondered whether he was working as a driver.
Yang nodded his head happily. "Very well. Are you going back to the United States?"
The man, who walked towards the Maserati, stopped when he heard Yang's words. But he tried to behave as if he wasn't bothered and opened the rear door of the car. "Be careful."
He said, placing one hand on the car door and holding Catherine's hand with other. He helped her get in the car gently.
Then he scooted in beside her.
Even though he had closed the door, he could still hear Ella's voice. "Yes, I'll be back in the United States after I finish filming the teleplay."
Yang felt sad after he heard her words but became excited when he recalled something. He looked at Ella and said "You are a famous star now. That's great. Please give me your phone number so that we can stay in touch."
Ella recited her number out loud as Yang typed and saved it in his phone, and vice-versa.
In the car, Catherine looked at Samuel, who had his eyes closed, and wondered what he was thinking about.
"Yang." Samuel called him lightly, but his voice boomed throughout the car and sipped outside.
Yang said goodbye to Ella and got in the driver's seat.
Ella and Eden went back to their car too and drove behind them slowly.
In the car, Ella kept thinking about what Catherine had said. She had asked Samuel to go to her house that night. How was their relationship?
Ella thought. They had been engaged and possibly lived together.
Samuel opened his eyes, took out his cellphone, and saved Ella's number. He had been listening intently when she recited them to Yang.
Observing Samuel's movements keenly, Catherine clenched her left hand into a fist tightly.
I will never let you ruin my happiness Ella. Never! Catherine thought to herself.
After forty minutes, the Maserati stopped in front of a cell gate, so did the Mercedes caravan behind them.
Ella watched as the Maserati diverted into the residential area.
Ella, surprisingly, became sad, as their car diverted to the hotel.
The Maserati stopped in front of an apartment. Catherine looked at the man, who was sitting still, and asked him carefully. "Sam..."
"Go into the apartment and rest. I have some work to deal with at the law firm."
Samuel closed the app he was looking at, locked his cell phone, and closed his eyes, resting his head against the back seat.
Realising that the man didn't want to talk to her, Catherine resorted to agreeing instead of begging for him to stay with her. "Okay. Take good care of yourself and make sure that you are back early."
Catherine got out of the car. Watching the car drive off, she took out her phone and dialled a number.
"Long time no see... I heard that you are familar with the entertainment industry. Could you help me..." Catherine spoke into the phone, with determination.
Ella had been rehearsing the dance for the past four days back in C Country. On the fifth day, she was filming the dance scene for the large ancient costume drama called Prince Jin's Favorite Concubine.
Joseph acted as the emperor and Amber played the heroine Crystal. Ella, the second heroine, played Lily who was an enchanting and sexy beauty from a foreign country.
Lily's scene attracted every man's eyes. Her dance moves were graceful and sexy. People became enchanted as she moved from one corner of the room to the other.
However, Lily's role was a tragic one from the beginning. She loved Leo Jin, the Royal Highness, who was the second hero in the play, but she was given to the emperor as a gift.
