Isabella was startled and quickly pushed Alexander’s shoulder, laughing awkwardly. “No need, no need. It’s just a minor sprain, nothing serious. It’ll be fine soon. I have experience with this.”
Alexander frowned, just about to scold Isabella for being too careless with her body.
Heavens! One lie requires a hundred more to cover it up.
Alexander froze and looked at Isabella, seeing her uneasy expression.
Alexander relented under Isabella’s push. “Are you sure it’s really nothing?”
Isabella forced a smile. “It’s nothing.
I jumped on my own. How could anything be wrong?
Alexander thought for a moment and realized what Isabella had done. He looked at her, feeling both amused and annoyed. However, he didn’t expose her.
Then he remembered David’s reply, and his mouth twitched involuntarily. “Why are you alone? Where’s everyone else?”
Isabella was also puzzled. David and Selena had suddenly called everyone to watch the show on the stage.
She thought at least Thalia would stay with her, the pretend victim, but Rosalie had found an excuse to pull her away too. In the end, she was left alone enjoying the gossip.
However, Isabella didn’t mind.
She explained to Alexander, who then showed a subtle change in his expression. Seemingly helpless, he pulled up a chair to sit next to her.
“Are you sure you don’t need to go to the hospital? Even if it’s a little painful, we could apply some
ointment on it.”
The stage was about a meter high. If one were to jump off, there was a very real risk of getting hurt if not careful.
Isabella firmly refused. As she spoke, she heard his phone vibrating again.
“Are you very busy? Am I holding you back at work?” Isabella asked,
After Alexander’s arm healed, he resumed his usual routine of working overtime. He specifically came for this mistake, which made Isabella feel guilty.
Alexander responded indifferently, “It’s fine,” then took out his phone.
He had driven over in a rush and hadn’t checked his phone.
When he answered, he wasn’t surprised by the caller’s intent. He had already received several similar calls at the office.
Isabella seemed to hear the caller mention Christopher and performance, making her curious. Apparently,

Alexander glanced at Isabella and calmly responded, “My wife and my brother know exactly what they’re doing. I have no objections. If someone is hurt, they should reflect on themselves. What does that have to do with my wife and brother? Yes, I support them all the way.”
The other person seemed infuriated and fell silent for a while. Alexander politely said goodbye.
Looking up, he saw Isabella’s eyes sparkling, making his heart skip a beat. His gaze softened.
“Did you have fun tonight?”
Isabella couldn’t help but excitedly share the gossip. Alexander was always a good listener.
“Here, look at Rebecca’s performance. Can you believe she only looked at the script for ten minutes? Check out the comments on the live stream. It’s so funny. I can imagine their jaws dropping.”
Alexander smiled indulgently and leaned closer to watch the live stream performance. “She’s a professional actress. It looks like your agency is gaining a powerful new member.”
“But Danielle is still a little worried…”
At this moment, Rebecca was playing a nervous, inexperienced company newcomer. Though she had an alluring appearance and a sexy figure, her clear expressions, pure eyes, and slightly stiff movements perfectly conveyed a sense of innocence.
Most of them had seen Rebecca play enchanting, mesmerizing roles. No director gave her a chance to play anything else. They didn’t realize that Rebecca could effortlessly transform into a completely different person when removed from her usual roles.
Christopher and the other supporting actors had imagined various emergency scenarios to save the performance. But from the start, Rebecca barely missed a line. Even if there were differences, the meaning was always the same.
In the first scene, she needed to discuss an important contract during a business trip and had to communicate it clearly with her boss.
The audience saw Rebecca nervously and seriously talking to Christopher on the phone. She tried to get every detail right, afraid of making any mistakes.
“Huh?” Rebecca’s expression showed a clear moment of confusion, torn between knowing it was inappropriate and the pressure of a superior’s request.
Upon entering, she felt awkward seeing Christopher in his robe. She held the contract at a distance and wanted to speak immediately. But Christopher waved her over, saying, “Bring it here so I can see.”
Rebecca jumped in fright and stood up immediately, but Christopher kept pulling her back. He acted as if she was overthinking things and scolded her as if he felt insulted by her actions. However, in reality, he was the one making physical advances.
