Daisie turned her head around and saw James, who was standing at the corner alone. He seemed uninterested in the banquet. Instead of mingling with the people, he preferred to stay alone.
She walked toward James and stood behind the pillar.“ Why are you hiding here?”
James was stunned, and his hand froze in midair. He glanced at her through the corner of his eyes and said, “I like to stay alone.”
Daisie crossed her arms in front of her chest and leaned against the pillar. “Hey, don‘t you want to get along with the artists in the company?”
He clicked his tongue and looked at the wine in his glass. “That’s not necessary. After all, birds of different feathers do not flock together.”
Daisie was rendered speechless.
James turned his head around to look at her and grinned, “By the way, I heard that you said you‘re going to get the Best Actress award in just three years. You really have a lot of guts. I‘m very impressed.”
She said, “I‘m not lying.”
“What‘s so good about being the best actress? It’s nothing but a title. Besides, your family is rich. Even if you don‘t become the best actress, you won‘t run out of money to spend.”
“It‘s different.”
“How is it different?” James looked at her.
Daisie lowered her head and continued. “There are a lot of things you can decide for yourself if you aren‘t strong, though. Even though I know my brothers love me very much, if I keep staying under their protection, I‘ll be like a loser who can‘t do anything. This kind of life is not what I want.”
James mumbled, “Loser, huh?”
His father always said he was a loser.
However, he did not think there was anything wrong with being a loser. After all, a loser would be able to live a carefree life than someone who was capable.
Daisie‘s phone rang, and a smile appeared on her face when she saw the phone number.
