Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1313 Cold and indifferent.
Other than seeing her lose control that year they broke up, he had barely seen her like that since then.
âYoung Master Jewellâ¦â his assistant called.
âYes, so does she have to do with the Neeson family?â Chester asked.
âYup, she actually does.â His assistant continued,â I found out that before Jennifer married Borris, when she and Charity stayed at Geraldton, Eliza was Charityâs only childhood playmate. But after Bories took Charity back to the Neeson family, Charity and Eliza began writing letters to each other. It was when Elizaâs parents got a divorce and her mother took her away that she lost touch with Charity.â
Chester lit up a cigarette silently.
Deep down, he found it strange. In that case, did Eliza dig up Jennifer and Borisâs ashes and move them away solely because of her childhood friendship with Charity?
âWhen Charity was in jail, did Eliza visit her?â âNo.â The assistant shook his head.
Chester rubbed his brows.
âBy the way,â the assistant added, âEliza has been vying with Cindy for the female lead in The Belle.
From what Iâve heard, the readers of the original work and Director Cheever think that Eliza is a better fit. But⦠you contacted the company to ask Director Cheever to make Cindy the female lead. â
Chester raised his brows, and his thin lips curled in surprise. âSince Director Cheever has decided on her, it means that her acting skills are fine.â
âYeah, she acts well.â The assistant said with a little excitement, âYou donâ t know how dramatic and sensational she was when she played the female murderer in her previous movieâ¦â
After describing for a while, the assistant probably became conscious of his demeanor as he said in embarrassment, âActually, her acting skills were awful back then. However, she has suddenly improved over the past two years.â
âThe past two years?â
Chesterâs brows twitched pensively.
He recalled it was two years ago that Charity jumped into the sea.
âSend me Elizaâs schedule. I want to meet her, â Chester said impassively after some time.
âI can bring her here straight away,â the assistant responded.
âNo need.â Chester continued to stare at the photo on the phone.
âI guess Eliza will look for President Daley directly.â The assistant said, âIn case you donât know, Eliza is also an artist under Felix Media.â
Chester was slightly taken aback. âWhy didnât I see her at the past year-end parties?â
âShe has never attended any of them,â the assistant replied. âLast year, she was sick, and the year before, she was filming a movie.â
âInteresting.â Chesterâs thin lips curled.
He had a feeling that Eliza might know something about the matter.
11:00 a.m.
Chester showed up at Felix Media.
The CEO of the company, Shedrick Daley, was astonished at his arrival. He laughed and said, âIâve contacted Director Cheever, and he has already agreed to let Cindy play the lead. Yet, here you are.
Are you afraid that Iâll give the soon-to-be Young Madam Jewell a hard time?â
Chester smirked. âI pity you for having to support her as the female lead despite her lousy acting.â
âAhem. Thatâs very direct of you.â Shedrick coughed. â Since we demanded to make Cindy the female lead, Director Cheever will have no choice but to spend more time guiding her. Hopefully, she wonât behave snobbishly.â
â If she does, just ask Director Cheever to change the female lead,â Chester replied coldly.
Shedrick glanced at him in astonishment. Just as he was about to speak, his secretary suddenly came in and said, âPresident Daley, Eliza is here.â
Awkwardness washed over Shedrick, and he glanced at Chester before saying to his secretary, âTell her that Iâm not around. Ask herâ¦â âAsk her to come in,â Chester said out of the blue.
