Chapter 285
Turning around, I saw Camille and Eric approaching us.
Looking at her gentle smile, I suspected that the furious Camille I saw in the hall moments ago was just an illusion.
“Hi Camie, President Walker,” I greeted them with a smile.
“Lily, you look so beautiful today. It’s invigorating. You stole all the spotlight from me, the female lead in the film.” Camille assessed me.
“No way, you are the prettiest one here.” I flashed her a smile, thinking it was a headache to be involved in such social interaction.
“What I said was true. When I saw Beverly in this dress backstage, I was stunned. However, now that I see you in the same dress, I am surprised.”
She was saying I looked better than Beverly in the same dress. While she was praising me, she was also belittling Beverly, which wasn’t a good comparison for me.
Embarrassed, I tried to change the subject. “The film is excellent. Camie, your acting skills are superb! People always say that you are beautiful and talented in acting. I am convinced.”
I felt hesitant to say those words and subconsciously glanced at Eric, whose expression was grim. It looked like he wasn’t in a good mood.
“Really?” With a delighted expression, Camille asked, “Lily, are you just saying that to make me happy?”
“What I said is true. I was immersed in the movie,” I replied with difficulty, feeling upset.
“I can testify for her,” Dylan chimed in. “Lily was focused on the movie. I had never seen her so attentive before when watching a movie.”
“Serious? Thank you, Lily!”
Despite her cheerful expression, I knew she wasn’t sincere in saying those words. I wasn’t influential or wealthy so my comment didn’t really matter.
After having a small talk with me, Camille turned her attention to Dylan. As they were chatting, I quickly left the scene with my plate.
There were so many different types of food in the buffet area that I was blown away. Upon getting enough food, I sat down and was about to enjoy the food. At that moment, a figure sat down on the other side of the table.
Seeing Eric, I couldn’t help but frown. As if not noticing my displeasure, he ordered, “Get me some food
.”
Why aren’t you doing this yourself? I secretly refuted it, but didn’t have the heart to say it aloud. Therefore, I nodded
agreement and got up from the chair.

I didn’t know much about her food preference, as we’d only eaten together a few times before. Knowing he didn’t like spicy food, I avoided anything that looked spicy.
Returning with the food, I was furious that Eric was eating the food I bought for me earlier.
Why is there such a shameless person in the world? Putting the plate down sharply, I said, “President Walker, this is yours!”
“You can have it. I’m fine with yours.”
Looking at the food in front of me, I was furious. You could have told me if you liked the same food I ate for myself. Why did you ask me to take this? I don’t like these dishes! You understand?

Seeing that I was still standing. Eric looked at me and shamelessly asked, “Are you angry?”
“Who am I to be angry?”
“How can you say you’re not angry when impatience is written all over your face?” Suddenly, Eric pushed the plate away. forward and sneered, “Mrs. Hawkins, you are finally showing your true colors now.”
