Ryan was pulled away by a wellâknown director to discuss investment matters.
As I was engaged in a lively conversation with Yasmin, a waiter came over.
âMiss, your juice.â
âThank you.â
Such events offer this kind of service. Without much thought, I reached out to take it when Christine walked over.
Seeing this, Yasmin reached out to check her forehead and said softly and caringly, âSweetie, Joanne said you werenât feeling well. Are you feeling better now?â
âMuch better, Mom.â Christine stood next to her, looking obedient, and gazed dreamily at Scarlet.â Scarlet, I saw online that youâll be going to be a regular on a slowâlife variety show next month. Could you take me along to experience it?â
Hearing this, I roughly understood her intentionâher interest in joining the entertainment industry had not waned.
The show Scarlet was joining involved a director selecting a rural area, Inviting a few talented actors or actresses, and adding a couple of new faces to experience leisurely life activities like eating and farming. It was extremely popular and highly anticipated each season.
There was also a chance for ordinary people to make an appearance as guests, but these were typically industry leaders.
However, Christine might not be excluded. After all, she had a mother with a lot of influence.
But Yasmin frowned, exchanged a look with Joanne, and clearly hadnât expected Christine to bypass her and directly approach Scarlet.
Scarlet was also momentarily taken aback.
But being accustomed to various grand occasions, she skillfully deflected the topic to Yasmin. âWell, youâll need to check with your mother. The entertainment industry is too complicated. She might not want you to go through the same hardships she experienced,
I wasnât surprised by her answer. After all, she didnât care about Christine at all. She was just considering Yasminâs feelings.
Moreover, given Yasminâs current status, it was indeed more advantageous for her daughter not to enter the entertainment industry, as the drawbacks outweighed the benefits. She wouldnât want her daughter to endure the same difficulties.
Christine, however, didnât understand. She pouted her lips. âYou all say the entertainment industry is complicated, but I just want to experience it.â
She then shook Yasminâs arm. âIsnât it okay? Mom, youâre so familiar with the showâs teamâ¦â
âAlright, alright.â Yasmin, looking a bit troubled, finally gave in.

Christineâs eyes lit up with joy. âMom, youâre the best!â
Entering the entertainment industry was a dream for many ordinary people. But those present couldnât quite understand why Christine had such a dream.
When Scarletâs gaze swept over me, she suddenly said, âCharlotte, would you like to join? Being on the show could definitely boost your reputation.â
âNo, thank you. I appreciate the offer,â I smiled and declined the offer. âIâd rather focus on my design work.
Being on variety shows would generally bring traffic, which might be a good thing at times. No one knew if it would be good or bad for me. I struggled with my mindset in recent years and couldnât handle having every move magnified and scrutinized on camera, whether praised or criticized,
Scarlet seemed surprised and praised, âItâs rare to see such an unpretentious young person.â
Christine immediately asked, âScarlet, are you saying that Iâm impetuous?â
Christine had changed drastically since returning to the country compared to two years ago when she was with the Shaw family. Back then, she was timid, seemingly afraid of making mistakes. But now, she had gained confidence. Was this the difference between a highâquality imitation and the real thing?
I couldnât be sure.
Scarlet, who was usually straightforward, now seemed a bit awkward. âI didnât mean thatâ¦â
âAlright.â Yasmin stopped Christine from saying more, pointing in a direction. âDonât you want to take a photo with Calum? Go on.â
I glanced over.
Calum was a very popular young actor and was very handsome.
âOkay!â Christine, not daring to push too hard, nodded. Before heading over, she lifted her glass towards me and said, âMs. Wilson, Iâm counting on you for my momâs dress at the end of the month,â
