She fell into a deep dreamless sleep.
When Laura woke up the next day, she found that her face was covered in tears.
She wondered why she was suddenly acting like this.
All she knew was that she was tired and exhausted.
However, she had no other choice.
All she could do was to present herself as glamorous as possible in front of everyone, and to make herself the image of a goddess.
After putting on makeup, the haggard woman in the mirror suddenly became bright and charming.
The corner of her lips twisted. She didn't know whether to marvel at the wonder of makeup or how gaunt she was.
Dressed up, she went downstairs, got into the nanny car her company offered her, and went to the crew.
Laura was silent all the way, which made Maria heart ache.
Maria heard about Laura's dilemma at the shooting party yesterday.
She knew that she had misjudged the start time of the party.
However, she was confused.
The start time was clearly told by Peter's assistant. How could it be wrong?
No one would explain her doubts.
She had inquired more than once since yesterday.
Those who knew about this said they didn't know the truth.
No matter how hard she tried, no one could give her a clear answer,
which not only frustrated her,
but also made her began to wonder if Laura had done something wrong.
Absolutely, Laura must have offended someone powerful.
However, Maria didn't know who he was.
Laura had a good reputation in the industry and was known for being kind to others, she almost never got into a conflict with others.
She had, it must be said, made far fewer enemies than her peers.
Maria didn't understand who Laura had offended for this to happen.
After all, only Lily had feuded Laura recently.
And... Lily...
Maria had to laugh at her own foolishness when she thought of that arrogant woman.
Why did she think of Lily?
Alright, it was Lily!
Maria felt contrite and wanted to give a slap to herself.
How could she forget Lily?
Peter was Lily's uncle. If it was because she was trying to play tricks on Laura, then it all made sense.
Lily was the only one who had the motive to make things difficult for Laura.
Maria patted Laura who was staring out of the window in a daze at the thought.
"Laura, I know why I got the time wrong!"
"Why?" Laura frowned.
Maria said with great seriousness, "Lily Thomson."
It all clicked.
"Lily..." Laura paused, lost in thought.
If that was the case, it all made sense.
