Chapter 5 Everyone Loves Beauty
In the evening, people in the cocktail party, under the dazzling light, held their wine glasses and walked around, toasting each other.
Lola changed into a long burgundy tight backless dress with a plunging neckline, attracting a lot of men's attention.
She had already been used to appearing under all kinds of gazes. Without any surprise and timidity, she was graceful and behaved properly in the crowd. All the people present praised this returned young famous star and were attracted by her charm.
"It's not easy for her to make such great achievements after she started her career abroad for two years."
"Yeah! Now the number of her INS fans reaches up to twenty million, which is the highest record in the overseas Chinese celebrity circle. And as soon as she registers a microblog account, the number of her microblog followers quickly rises to thirty million. She is extraordinarily popular."
"No matter how popular she was, she has to start over when she comes back. Do you remember Celia? She was touted a lot by media and her fans when she had just come back from abroad, but she still fell down later. Then it took her much time to restart her career. When it comes to future, everything is possible... After all, the situation at home is different from that abroad. There are still many famous stars falling down but no longer appearing in public later, like Faye."
"By the way, the news said that she was born in this city. It seems that she is from a famous family. But why don't I remember such a person?"
"The rumor is that she is an adopted daughter of a rich family. But nobody knows which family she depends on."
Hearing the gossip, Jacob raised a glass of wine and drank it up.
However, Barry beside him was not satisfied with this. He even joined the discussion, "Which family? Is there any news?"
"I don't know. There were many people who wanted to dig up her information, but it seemed that what had happened before she started her career had been well concealed, and she had never mentioned anything about her past. She just declares that she is an orphan, and her parents both have passed away..."
Jacob gave a little cough to stop Barry. He frowned and said, "You ask so many questions. Are you really going to sign her?"
"Of course. As you know, I need a popular young actress. If I sign her and make her cooperate with the TV station, she will definitely become more popular! Who wouldn't like such a beauty?" Barry looked at him with his bright eyes, which made him feel embarrassed and speechless.
"BOSS, what do you think?"
"It's up to you."
Let Barry decide?
He just said a few hours ago that such a woman would only make them lose money... Why did he change his mind at this moment?
The BOSS was a little strange!
Jacob said these words indifferently, but his eyes had already focused on the figure not far away.
'Her foot must still be injured.
Why does she insist on showing up here?
Does she like drinking with those men?'
Lola only felt a chill on her back. She looked around in confusion, and then she saw Jacob.
She turned around impatiently and was about to leave, but suddenly she was grabbed by a hand. "Louisa?"
"Ryan?" With a joyful smile on her face, Lola said to him happily, "It's me!"
"I've received the news that you're back. And I have been wondering when I can meet you. But I never thought that I can see you today! I didn't have time to watch your first show before. Now I'm relieved when I see you."
After looking around, Lola grabbed Ryan's arm and whispered, "Let's talk in another place."
At this time, Jacob frowned and saw her leave with Ryan. He was furious and resentful. 'It's him again?'
In the past, when he was not at home, Ryan went to meet Louisa without permission.
Now, they were still connected!
He wanted to see what they were doing.
"Hey, BOSS, where are you going?" Before Barry could finish his words, Jacob had disappeared.
"Let's continue our talk. Hasn't Lola signed the contract yet?"
"Yes. I heard that she had only one agent, and she is currently looking for a suitable agency."
On the other side, Lola and Ryan went to a quiet place. She whispered in his ear, "Ryan, don't forget what I told you. Don't tell others what happened to me before. You can call me Lola. Now I'm Lola." "Don't worry, I won't tell others. I will call you Lola from now on. But even so, you are still my junior schoolmate."
Lola nodded in agreement. "Although I don't want to hide my real identity, I have said something untrue when I started my career. If someone knows what happened to me in this city, I might be in trouble." "I get it. But are you sure that the Gu family won't put obstacles in your way?" Ryan said worriedly.
Lola shook her head with a bitter smile, "They won't want to have anything to do with me, let alone make others know that I used to be a family member of them." They both remained silent.
In her mind, the only friends in this city were Ryan and Jane.
She could only trust them and they would help her unconditionally.
"You two are always together!" Jacob suddenly spoke, walking towards them. He looked at them indifferently and said, "Ryan, you are as affectionate as ever!" Lola stepped forward to stand in front of Ryan, frowning and scolding Jacob, "It's none of your business! Mr. Jacob, please behave yourself!
"
"Behave myself? You should behave yourself! Do you feel a sense of accomplishment under those men's gaze when you dress like this? Do you like it?" Jacob asked her in a cold voice. The fire in his eyes was so overwhelming that he was unable to control himself.
She blushed and was annoyed, "What are you talking about? What's wrong with my dressing? It's my business to wear whatever I like! Other women look beautiful no matter what they wear, but I can't? Even if you like to pick on me, please don't bother me!"
Jacob stared at her and then looked at Ryan, "well, as a man, don't you have anything to say? Do you like to see her dressing like this?"
Ryan smiled faintly, "Everyone loves beauty. In our eyes, Lola is beautiful. Why don't we like her and her dressing? However, for those who have dirty thoughts, they would naturally make some unfriendly remarks about her. It's not Lola's fault."
"That's right." Lola raised her eyebrows complacently towards Jacob, indicating that she also had a backer and helper. She would no longer be bullied by him.
"Well, you are indeed a friend of her." Jacob snorted, "I'm relieved to see that you are getting along well with each other. Because you won't badger me again!"
Hearing this, Lola covered her mouth and chuckled. She pulled Ryan's arm and deliberately provoked Jacob, "Excuse me. Mr. Jacob, don't misunderstand me. How dare I badger you? I was so naive before that I didn't discover such a good guy by my side and did something wrong. But now...
Ryan turned his head to look at Lola in surprise. From her eyes, he immediately knew that she was seeking his help. He said, "How are you doing now? You can tell Mr. Jacob."
"No! She doesn't need to tell me! Why don't you tell me, Ryan?" Jacob narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists.
Lola nodded to Ryan to indicate that he could say anything he wanted to say. After getting the permission, Ryan smiled generously. "I will protect Lola from now on and won't let her suffer any grievance. Mr. Jacob, are you satisfied with my answer? "
Jacob kept silent and looked at them without saying a word. He was petrified.
Were they really in love?
He had already known that Ryan liked Louisa before, hadn't he? Why did he feel so angry?
"Yes, He will definitely be satisfied with this answer. " Lola said deliberately, "Mr. Jacob, now you should rest assured. I'm very happy to stay with him. I won't do stupid things again like before. Let's go, Ryan. Goodbye Mr. Jacob, I hope we won't see each other again."
Then holding Ryan's hand, she bypassed Jacob and left directly.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
