Her Precious Baby

Although he was young, his muscles were extra firm, probably because he had been working out diligently.

Moreover, he looked extremely handsome too.

When he came down from the car, he ordered his assistant to take out the drinks prepared from the car trunk to

be distributed to everybody.

“Ladies and gentlemen, I’ve prepared some cold beverages for you all. The weather is too hot, so I hope these will

help to cool you down.”

Since he was particularly good at handling matters and knew how to sweet talk, he was able to get acquainted

quickly with the film crew and actors in the production team.

Suddenly, Nancy came over and touched Angeline’s shoulder. The former warned in a whisper, “Did you see that?

He is Jacob, the lead actor in The Journey. I heard he invested a lot of money into the production and had a strong

backer. You should be careful when you’re working together with him.”

Upon hearing that, a hint of unfathomable emotion flashed across Angeline’s eyes as she stared at Jacob. It was

very common to invest in productions in the entertainment industry. While female artists targeted rich and

influential men, male artists would sometimes get themselves backers as well.

After thinking about it for a while, she felt it was such a pity for Jacob to have to do such things at such a prime age.

“Ms. Sorelle?”

At that moment, a gentle voice of a man was heard.

Before Angeline realized it, Jacob was already standing in front of her. His white teeth were showing as he smiled. “I

heard from Mr. McKenna that you’re my co-star in the movie, so I came over to say hi.”

As he said that, he passed the cold beverages in his hands over to Angeline and Nancy.

“Thank you. Please call me Angie.” Angeline took the drinks and inserted a straw while feeling guilty. They were

gossiping about him just moments ago, after all.

“All right, Angie. I’ll go and get changed first. Please join me for dinner tonight if you have time,” Jacob suggested

with a smile.

Hearing his words, Angeline was stunned for a while. She then quickly replied politely, “That’s not right. You’re

younger than me, so I should be the one treating you to a meal.”

“You can do that next time. I’ve already made a reservation for tonight, so you must come,” Jacob said and left

after being urged a few times by the director.

Angeline was speechless.

Meanwhile, Nancy came close to Angeline and whispered into her ear, “Angeline, why do I feel that the guy’s

attitude toward you seemed odd? It was as though he came prepared?”

Angeline looked at the beverage in her hand. The logo on it belonged to a high-end brand.

Jacob’s background was not to be underestimated, indeed.

Meanwhile, Evander had just walked out of the conference room when he saw Olivine dressed glamorously, waiting

for him outside his office.

Evander looked at her with his eyebrows furrowed. “What are you doing here?”

Olivine ignored his indifferent attitude. She held onto her Chanel bag, walked toward him in her three-inch heels,

and embraced his shoulders while acting coquettishly.

“Evander, Old Mrs. Golding asked me to have dinner with you to discuss our wedding details.”

After hearing that, Evander chuckled in his heart. Wedding? What makes her think there’s still going to be a

wedding?

When Olivine saw his indifferent expression, she leaned her head against his shoulder. She acted vulnerable as she

said coyly, “Evander, I think there was a misunderstanding between us at the court the other day. Will you please

give me some time to explain?”

When Evander heard what she said, he slammed the document in his hands shut and passed it to Sylas before

saying, “Go away.”

He did not want to hear her explanation.

Furthermore, he would not believe in Olivine’s lies anymore.

As a matter of fact, he wanted to revoke their engagement!

Angeline finished her acting scenes in the afternoon. Since it was the first day of work, she had more time on her

hands After cleaning up and changing, she saw Jacob’s assistant waiting for her at the door.

“Ms. Sorelle, Mr. Zane has been waiting a long time for you in the car.”

“All right.” Angeline nodded and informed Nancy that she would not need the driver to pick her up. Following that,

she left the film set and went into Jacob’s car.

Initially, Angeline thought Jacob had also invited other actors, but she did not expect that he would be the only one

in the car.

After she got into the car, Jacob put the script in his hands down and said with a smile, “Angie, you’re here. Is it all

right if we go for fine dining?”

“Yes, I have no problem with that.” Angeline sat beside him, feeling a little reserved. “Where are we going?”

“You’ll find out when we get there.”

After saying that, Jacob told the driver, “Let’s go.”

Ten minutes later, they stopped in front of a fine-dining restaurant. The waiters who had been waiting for the duo

led them to their seats after greeting them, “Welcome.”

Angeline swept her gaze across the surroundings, which were decorated in a classic vintage style and looked

exceptionally elegant.

She had expected such a high-class restaurant to be filled with people.

However, when she looked again, there were no other guests except them.

The waiter led them to the dining table in the middle of the restaurant. Many exquisite dishes were on the table,

along with a few candle lights and a fragrant, fresh rose.

“Ms. Sorelle, please enjoy your meal in peace. Mr. Zane has reserved the whole restaurant, so there will not be

anyone disturbing you.”

When Angeline heard what the waiter said, she was in shock.

He even reserved the whole restaurant? Seems like this isn’t a normal meal.

Angeline finally realized that something was not right. She looked at Jacob cautiously. “This is the first time we’ve

met, but you’ve arranged such an extravagant dinner. Don’t you think it’s a little over the top?”

Jacob showed an innocent expression and was a little discouraged. “Angie, you don’t like it? I thought ladies would

enjoy these kinds of arrangements.”

“So, you’re here to pick up girls?” Angeline chuckled coldly as she took her bag and was about to leave. “Then I’m

sorry, Mr. Zane. I’m not that frivolous.”

When he saw that she was about to leave, Jacob quickly called out to her, “Don’t, Angie. I just wanted to treat you

to a meal. Plus, I have something I want to say!”

Angeline stopped in her tracks when she heard him.

“I didn’t have time to tell you at the film set during the day. Actually, I particularly love seeing you act. In fact, I’ve

watched all of your movies, and I would say that I’m your fan.”

Angeline turned her head, but her gaze remained dark as she sneered, “Mr. Zane, I find it hard to believe your

words.”

The entertainment industry itself was a war zone. Furthermore, she was not a veteran actor, so she was having a

hard time with the competition among the young actors.

“I’m telling the truth,” Jacob explained anxiously. Seeing that she did not believe him, he quickly recited the movie

titles she had filmed in her early days.

He remembered them even more clearly than Angeline herself.

Angeline frowned with a subtle change in her expression. However, it was not enough for her to let her guard down.

“So what? You could have gotten all these details easily through Google.”

Jacob looked at her, his eyelashes slowly moving downward with a disappointed look in his eyes. “Do you really not

remember me?”

“What do you mean?” Angeline was confused.

Jacob quickly took a vintage photo out of his wallet and passed it to her. “Do you remember this photo?”

When she took over the photo, she covered her nose and mouth as a trace of shock flashed across her eyes.

“It’s you?”
