Even some of the celebrities whom Meredith never spoke to came to greet her enthusiastically. Someone among the celebrities who were with Meredith when the diamond ring was delivered to her that day must have gossiped about it. Therefore, rumors about her must have spread like wildfire, which explained why people were starting to flatter her.
Meredith enjoyed the attention she got from them. As an obedient girl, she grew up being overshadowed by Megan’s cheerful and boisterous personality. Therefore, she chose to become a celebrity, as she enjoyed being the center of attention. Somehow, the organizer decided to arrange for Meredith and Jude to sit next to each other, so the cameras were constantly pointed toward both of them.
“You must have bribed the organizer to have them arrange you to sit beside me so that you would get more exposure.” Naturally, Meredith didn’t like Jude, so she used to have Landy dig up negative aspects of Jude’s past to be used as slandering material.
Fortunately, Jude didn’t care much about gossip, nor did she respond to any of those, so nobody actually knew much about her. People could form their own judgements about her, but none of them seemed to affect her. “F*cking hell.” Jude never was one to mince her words. “Meredith, aren’t you being a little self-conceited?”
Hearing that, Meredith felt humiliated. Not only was Jude unbothered to flatter her, but she was even speaking to her like that. Well, well! After tonight, I will find a way to ruin her career as a celebrity! However, she had to keep up appearances as an elegant woman as the cameras were constantly on her. Therefore, she had to keep her smile, and acting out like Jude wasn’t an option.
Meanwhile, Jude glanced at the ring on Meredith’s finger before mocking, “This is such a huge ring. Aren’t you worried that the weight might hurt your finger? You’re the Best Actress, so you need to take care of your fingers.”
