Anything For Her

Cecelia was able to understand what she needed to do swiftly, as expected from the newly crowned

queen of movies.

It only took two hours in the morning and the advertisement was half done.

“Cecelia is really beautiful! I never thought our products are that classy before, but when it’s applied on

Cecelia, I don’t think it’s inferior to the major brands from overseas at all!”

“That’s right! Ms. Sophie is incredible! With so many famous directors in the country waiting to work

with Cecelia, I couldn’t believe Ms. Sophie could talk her into working with us!”

“Totally! Ms. Sophie is amazing!” Even Wilma couldn’t help but praise Sophie.

She had understood many things in the industry after working there for years. When you’re at the top, people will come and butter you up. However, when you get unlucky and fell from grace, those same people will kick you when you’re down. Even though our company’s reputation has fallen off a cliff, Cecelia probably agreed to take on the job because of Ms. Sophie!

“How are things going?” Sophie asked.

She arrived there by taxi after school ended at one in the afternoon.

Upon hearing her voice, Wilma turned around and saw her lazy eyes. “You’re here, Ms. Sophie! The

filming is going smoothly. Ms. Lance is incredible!”

“That she is.” The edge of Sophie’s lips curved upward a little. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have asked her to help me out. ”She’s worthy of Transfix Cosmetics.”

“Why are you only here now, Sophie?” When Cecelia saw Sophie, the former immediately rushed over

to the latter’s side. She didn’t at all look like the queen of movies when she did that.

“You should be glad I was able to come at all,” Sophie replied. Don’t you know how busy I am?

“Stop being such a bully.” Even though Cecelia appeared cold and elegant in front of outsiders, she

would pout like a child in front of Sophie.

“Do you think your fans will still love you if they see you like this?”

“My fans aren’t this shallow! What they love is the beauty within me.”

“I bought some food you love. Go and eat them now! We need to wrap up the shooting as soon as

possible.” Sophie handed the food she bought to her.

“Thanks!” Cecelia smiled.

Sophie furrowed her eyebrows when she suddenly heard noises outside of the studio.

When Wilma saw her furrowed eyebrows, she said, “I’ll take a look at what’s happening outside.”

Upon leaving the studio, she saw Rachel and a couple of other betrayers approaching her.

“We’re filming an advertisement right now, Rachel. We don’t welcome you here. Please leave.”

“Filming an advertisement? Wilma, please. Are you going to tell me you still refuse to give up? How are

you going to film one without an ambassador or director? Don’t tell me you’re doing it yourself.” Rachel

was doubtful because she didn’t see any news about it on the internet.

“You— We do have an ambassador!” One of Wilma’s subordinates couldn’t hold back anymore.

“Who is it?” Rachel, naturally, didn’t believe it.

“It’s Cecelia, Cecelia Lance.”

“Ha!” Rachel sneered, “Why don’t you say it’s Jennifer Lawrence instead? Don’t you know it’s a bad

idea to be overambitious, Wilma? Cecelia is a famous movie star. Even if she agrees to star in an

advertisement, it’s more likely she’ll do it for the big, international brands! Even Lorelei is unwilling to

film an advertisement for the current Transfix Cosmetics.”

“What’s going on?” When Sophie walked out and saw Rachel, her eyebrows furrowed.

She had a photographic memory, and she met Rachel once before, so she had some impression of

her.

“I’ll ask the security guards to come right away, Ms. Sophie,” Wilma assured.

“Ah, so it’s Ms. Sophie!” Rachel sneered. I can tell Tanner Group doesn’t like her. Otherwise, Transfix Cosmetics wouldn’t have been handed to her.

“You have a problem with me?” Sophie glanced at her.

Rachel wanted to say something, but when she met Sophie’s cold look, a chill ran down her spine. The

words got caught in Rachel’s throat. No matter how hard she tried, she could not voice them out.

“It’s nothing.” She squeezed the words out of her mouth. “We’re only here to take a look at how you all

are doing! After all, we used to be colleagues. There’s nothing wrong with that, right? Anyway, we

should go! Ms. Crawford should be here at any second now!”

The reason Rachel came to visit Wilma and tried to stir up trouble was to vent her anger. Lorelei only had her debut not too long ago! How dare she act all snobbish and arrogant!

“It’s windy outside, Ms. Sophie. You should go in!” Wilma suggested.

Jipsdale’s temperature was currently sitting at a single-digit degree Celsius, and Sophie only wore a

white hoodie with a pair of jeans.

Sophie returned to the studio while Wilma followed behind.

Even though Sophie was wearing an outfit of a common brand, her demeanor and aura wasn’t

something other people could copy.

Upon entering the studio, Sophie saw Cecelia had finished eating the food and was drinking small sips

of water.

“I still need to go to class in the afternoon, so I won’t be accompanying you. Leave in secret once the

filming is over.” She didn’t want to announce the matter to the public yet.

Cecelia was speechless. Only Sophie has the guts to speak to me like that.

At almost half-past two in the afternoon, Sophie ambled out of Senior Class 8.

The moment Ysabelle saw her, she immediately pulled her outside.

“What’s wrong?” Sophie was confused.

“Let’s skip classes today, Soph!” Ysabelle continued to pull Sophie down the stairs, as though she was

being chased by ghosts.

“Why?”

“Do you really need an excuse to skip class?”

Ysabelle raised her head and stared at the wall that was over two meters tall. Are we really going to climb over the wall? Will our bones break if we fall?

Sophie stared at her friend nonchalantly. She’s been talking about climbing walls and escaping class for a while now. She’s the one who said we can’t escape through the front gate.

“Don’t you want to climb the wall? Do it!” she urged.

Ysabelle shrunk slightly and gulped. “How about—”

Before she could say she wanted to give up, Sophie ran backward, then forward, and used the

momentum to leap onto the wall.

It shocked Ysabelle completely. Her jumping ability is remarkable!

“What are you waiting for?” Sophie spoke as she sat carefreely on the wall.

Ysabelle grabbed her hand. Wow, my heart is beating really fast. Why does this feel like we’re eloping?

Sophie pulled her friend up and helped Ysabelle sit on the wall.

As they sat together, Ysabelle giggled. “It’s only until today that I feel like my high-school life is

complete, Soph. It won’t feel right if I don’t skip classes at least once in high school.”

Sophie rolled her eyes. Sometimes, I really have no idea what she’s thinking. Well, I guess she got her wish.

“Let’s go down!” she said.

Only then did Ysabelle glance downward. “I don’t have the guts to.”

“Don’t you want to fulfill your high-school dreams? How can it be complete without you breaking at

least a bone or two?”

“Hey, you two! What are you doing?” Suddenly, a security guard on patrol saw the two of them sitting

on the wall.

“What are you doing, Ysabelle?” Tristan asked.

Tristan and Felix saw Ysabelle sitting on the wall after they exited their parked car.

Felix felt like his heart was about to jump out of his chest.

“Go down! He’ll catch you.” Seeing how Felix was already standing below, Sophie directly pushed her

friend down.

“Ah!” Ysabelle closed her eyes and screamed. Am I really going to break my bones?

“Eh? It doesn’t hurt at all.” She only opened her eyes when she felt the warmth of a person’s embrace.

Though, perhaps it would be better if she didn’t open her eyes because she had to see Felix’s flustered

and exasperated face.

“You’re not coming down?” Tristan opened his arms and spoke to Sophie.
