In the past week, Jax's latest music video had received a consistently high viewership, surpassing those of his past music videos by a wide margin. Delighted, he transferred a sum of money to Yvonne and sent her a message. "What a pleasant cooperation, Ms. Miller! Once the company pays me, I'll give you the commission based on the number of views. Don't worry; you won't lose out!""Thanks," Yvonne replied soon after."What an unflappable person. If it had been someone else, they would probably be in seventh heaven by now," Jax thought.Well, what he didn't know was that Yvonne was busy preparing for the live stream at the moment and barely had time to check the amount of money he'd transferred to her. Instead of making the live stream too formal, she wanted to create a more casual atmosphere. Hence, Yvonne had only asked Nicole and two members of the publicity department to help her with the live stream, which would be held in her courtyard. After setting up the necessary equi
During the 90 minutes of live streaming, the number of viewers hit more than tens of millions. The barrage of comments was so overwhelming that the two employees from the publicity department had a tough time keeping up with them. Yvonne was clueless about how enthusiastic the viewers were; her entire focus was on cutting the stone. She introduced the gemstones and talked about their properties as if she wanted to give the viewers a crash course in how to get steady earnings by investing in gemstones."I'm in the emerald business, and I can tell that Ms. Miller genuinely wants to teach everyone." "My god. How can anyone stay focused when such a beauty is talking in front of you like this?"Before the live stream came to an end, Yvonne announced that all the raw gemstones that had been cut today would undergo secondary processing and cutting. They would eventually become Miller Jewels' new products for the next month. Hearing that, the viewers' anticipation for Miller Jewels' upco
By the next day, the heated online disputes between the two fan parties had gradually subsided. However, Ariel had decided to look for Yvonne instead. Yvonne had just finished her morning meeting when Hayden walked up to her and reported, "Ms. Miller, Ms. Clarke is waiting for you in the other meeting room."Yvonne frowned, thinking, "Ariel? What's she doing here?" Ariel was sipping her tea in the meeting room. When she heard the door open, she put her cup down. Yvonne approached her and sat on the couch. "I wonder what brings you here, Ms. Clarke?"Ariel looked at Yvonne and smiled faintly. "I hope I'm not disturbing you by coming here without informing you in advance." "That depends on how long you're going to stay." Yvonne spared a glance at her watch and casually continued, "I can only give you five minutes, at most, or else it's going to affect my schedule today." Ariel was rendered speechless. She'd never expected Yvonne to be so dismissive. No matter how many time
On the way to the kindergarten, Ariel mulled over it for a long time before finally deciding to send Stephen a message. "I had an event near the kindergarten today. It's over now, so I can pick Britney up. Unless she refuses to see me, I'll take her back to Oceania Villa." Stephen didn't reply after reading the message. Instead, he raised his eyes and stared at SunnyLight Kindergarten in the distance. Julian sat with Stephen in silence. He'd started to sympathize with his boss for some reason. "What's the point of Mr. Anderson coming here just to catch a glimpse of Elvin? He can't even greet his son," he thought, feeling frustrated for Stephen."Mr. Anderson, actually ..." Julian said in a soft voice. "I didn't ask the center to cancel the paternity test. The result is out—Elvin is indeed your son. In this kind of situation, you can file a lawsuit and at least get visitation rights. That way, you wouldn't have to be like now, when you can't even ..." Julian trailed off upon rece
Ariel was playing house with Britney in the living room at Oceania Villa. When she heard Tabitha greeting Stephen, she turned around and looked over. Stephen had just given his coat to Tabitha in the hallway. Upon raising his eyes and meeting Ariel's gaze, he furrowed his brows imperceptibly."Daddy, come here quickly!" Britney called in a sweet voice, which was impossible for anyone to resist. Stephen walked over and sat cross-legged beside Britney, as usual. "Aunt Ariel is here with you today. Do you still need me to play with you?""Yes!" Britney held Stephen's hand and said, "I want to play with Daddy and Aunt Ariel!" "Alright." Stephen chuckled lightly and bent down to kiss Britney's head, no longer able to conceal the doting look in his eyes. When Ariel saw that, she was surprised to feel a pang of sourness in her heart. She cursed herself inwardly, wondering, "What's wrong with me? Why am I getting jealous over a child?" Britney was very energetic and insisted on pl
Yvonne was having breakfast in Miller Villa when she suddenly heard Lloyd's intimidating voice from outside the door. Then she saw Lloyd grab the back collar of a skinny man and kick another man in the foot before forcing him to crawl into the house. Yvonne stood up and walked over. "What's wrong?""I've been feeling like something is amiss whenever I take Mr. Elvin to school these last few days. Today, I finally caught these two jerks!" Lloyd thrust the skinny man in front of Yvonne. "They've been following us lately and taking photos of us with their crappy cameras!" The skinny man, Brandon Gray, was so scared that he trembled all over. "Ms. Miller ... It's a misunderstanding. W—we ..." "Misunderstanding?" Yvonne glanced at the broken lens of the camera and extended her hand. "What did you take? Show me.""We ... We didn't take anything in particular. It's just ..." Brandon hesitated, subconsciously holding his camera. Annoyed, Lloyd stepped forward and snatched the camera
"Are you sure that Yvonne had a child out of wedlock?" Jodie looked at Ariel and couldn't help but feel worried. "It's been a few days since the paparazzi received the news, so why haven't they found anything yet?" Ariel was surprisingly calm. "What's the rush? You know how the paparazzi do their job. They won't rashly post the photos online unless they've got something sensational." "You're right." Jodie smiled embarrassedly. "It's rare for us to get a chance to bring Yvonne down. I'm just eager to watch it play out."Ariel didn't respond and continued to touch up her makeup. After staring at her for a while, Jodie smiled with relief. "Ariel, I'm glad that you managed to figure it out. Kind people are always the ones being taken advantage of. If we continued to let Yvonne have her way, she would only get more arrogant. It's time to teach her a lesson." "I heard that Simone would be joining the dinner today?" Ariel asked suddenly. "Yes. She's interested in this web series to
The director stepped forward and explained, "Simone, be it the female lead's temperament or image, Ms. Clarke fits them perfectly, so ...""So how much is Anderson Group going to invest in this web series? Or should I ask how you're planning to curry favor with them?" Simone asked directly, not giving anyone an out. The director and the producer exchanged glances with each other, unable to argue back for a moment. "It's been a while since I had contact with you, Ms. Moore. I didn't know that you have such a strong bias against me," Ariel said softly. Simone found it ridiculous. "So you are aware that you haven't been working for a long time, Ms. Clarke? If I hadn't met you today, I would've even thought that you were planning to give up on your career and settle down as Mr. Anderson's wife. Did you not have a good time? Is that why you're out here again to fight for work with us?" She was aggressive, and it didn't take long for Ariel to be at a loss for words. "Forget it; I don'
