Melissa didn't plan to go shopping today. Because she was forced to do so, she had no mood to go shopping. On the one hand, she was being followed by some paparazzi. On the other hand, she didn't know why they were so bored. Was it because of her that they could make a living? Although she had a little relationship with Eric, she hadn't become a famous star yet. There was nothing useful to her.
Now, Melissa totally understood the suffering as a star. She didn't think it was worthwhile to be flattered or followed by paparazzi wherever she went. She was forbidden to do anything she wanted, as if she was carrying a surveillance camera with her and having no freedom at all. She was just beginning to be famous, but now she was forced to do like this. She didn't know what would happen in the future.
Melissa rummaged through the clothes in the shopping mall. The more she looked at them, the more irritable she got. She was about to leave. But right at this moment, a woman suddenly came up to her. That woman was wearing a business suit and a pair of high-heeled shoes with a good figure and temperament. She looked about thirty or forty years old, but she looked calm and capable. It was obvious that she was a strong woman.
Seeing that she was walking towards her, Melissa was stunned. She thought whether she was looking her or not. She looked back, finding there was only her in this place except staff. And the woman was looking at her.
Melissa stood still and waited for her. Sure enough, the woman came over and stood in front of her. She asked calmly, "Are you Melissa?"
Melissa pointed at herself and said, "Me?" "……" She nodded and said, "I……" "Yes, I am. What's for?"
The woman replied straightforwardly, "Our chairman wants to meet you. Melissa, are you free now?"
This made Melissa even more surprised. She looked at the woman, wondering who she was and what she was up to. However, she couldn't tell from her poker face that showed a strong sense of integrity. And the woman was a trained professional. Melissa said, "Who is your chairman?" "Why do she want to see me?"
The woman still answered formulaically, "Melissa, you will know after you go with me."
Melissa didn't want to go. She stood still. The woman turned around again and said, "Melissa, please don't worry. Our chairman is a good person. She won't make things difficult for you!" "And she's in the resting room of the beauty club. You won't go away too long."
Hearing her words, Melissa had no choice but to trust her. And she was also curious about who the chairman was and why she wanted to see her. So she nodded and agreed to go with the woman.
They circled the shopping mall for half a circle and then took the elevator to the 9th floor, which led them to the beauty salon. Along the way, Melissa kept an eye on the people around, especially those in the corners. She wanted to see how the paparazzi would react, but she found that the paparazzi had mysteriously disappeared, both in the corners and in the crowd. It seemed that the moment the woman appeared, the paparazzi also disappeared. So Melissa was more curious about this woman. She couldn't help looking her up and down, but she just focused on her own way, as if she didn't care about the opinions of the people around her.
