"Is Miss Dickens Mr.Hopkins's wife?"
Everyone was surprised.
"Director Parker, is this true?"
Barbara looked grim.
If the light in this corner wasn't so dim, they could even clearly see her gritting her teeth and staring at the uninvited guest opposite her.
"Miss Jones, this is an exclusive party.May I ask why you're here?"
She emphasized the last words with a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"I've been too idle lately.I happen to have the membership of this club, so I come in to take a look."
Cecilia did not care how others think about her at all.
She lit a cigarette and puffed out white smoke.
Then she turned around with a charming smile, looking at the others.
"As soon as I came in, I heard that your friends were very interested in Miss Dickens.They are asking you questions about Miss Dickens, why don't you give an answer?"
She shrugged her shoulders.
Her style of conversation was unhurried and mature and she spoke as if she were joking, "Then I should remind them of Miss Dickens's identity, preventing them from offending Mr.Hopkins's beloved.otherwise, it would be troublesome."
Everyone present heard what she said clearly.
Everyone here was smart, so they did not ask Barbara any more questions.
Their eyes fell on this stranger.
Everyone present knew Cecilia, an arrogant woman.
She was once a very popular female artist because of her identity as Patrick's girlfriend.
However, it was heard that she seemed to have offended Patrick, and then no film and television company dared to use her again.
As soon as she appeared, everyone was looking at these two women.
Everyone was brooding over their own matters.
"So, so Miss Dickens is Mr.Hopkins's wife.That's why Mr.Shepherd has been taking care of her so much."
Yes, I've already noticed that Miss Dickens is quite different from the other models."
The second-guessers smiled brightly but said the fakest words.
If they had known that Miss Dickens was Hopkins family's granddaughter- in-law, they wouldn't have pestered Barbara.
Why would they hold the open audition if the right person was here? However, it was too late to please Miss Dickens.
"Director Parker, since this is about advertising, shall we vote again..."
"Yes.I think Miss Dickens did a good job in the last shot."
Businessmen always wanted to optimize the benefits.
They would change their decisions as soon as they found who the big boss was.
"It's up to the director to decide.Our company has its own principles."
Barbara's face was getting even paler after hearing their words.
Although Renee was chosen for the advertisement, she was afraid that Renee would not dare to take it now.
"Miss Parker, it seems that you don't get along well with Mr.Hopkins's wife.It's not wise."
Barbara was very angry as she noticed that Cecilia was picking on her.
She thought that Cecilia was supposed to be down and out.
However, she was wearing luxury brands all over her body, and the fire diamond on her finger was especially ostentatious.
"It seemed that you have already found another man.You looked good today:"
"Not bad.There were men giving me money, and buying jewelry that I was interested in in the auction for me.What's the best, I don’t have to work so hard and wear a smile all day like you"
Cecilia spoke in a very leisurely tone, looking like a rich wife.
Barbara didn't like her attitude, and she was also confused.
"Cecilia, I don't think there was anything wrong between us.Why did you speak like that? Plus, shouldn't you hate Christina more?"
"I hate her.Of course, I hate her"
They sat opposite each other, separated by an exquisite wooden table.
Suddenly, Cecilia leaned closer to her ear, whispering a curse filled with resentment, "I wish Christina to die!"
A woman who was jealous was terrifying.
Barbara also hated Christina, but she did not hate her.
"Cecilia, you've gone for so long.Why did you suddenly show up?"
