Chapter 28
“Miss Jones, Universe Studios has already confirmed that you will be the heroine of their first play of the new
year. This is a remake of the blockbuster last year. After rounds of selection, you got the role as soon as you made a comeback. How do you feel?”
Christina was sitting in front of the small sofa of her bedroom, watching the entertainment gossip. The news about Cecilia’s return to the entertainment industry was being broadcasted.
“Miss Jones, since you debuted six years ago, you have been playing important leading roles. There are also
rumors that you refuse to accept ordinary plays. Everyone has been very curious about your emotional life. Can you reveal the identity of the man a little bit?
“Miss Jones, did you marry into a rich family when you suddenly disappeared three years ago? Did you come back because he tolerates your interest?”
Cecilia smiled but didn’t answer.
She was dressed in a light yellow suit
jacket and a long chiffon dress, looking
fashionable and elegant. When she
was asked about her affair. her face
flushed slightly and she looked happy
and shy.
“Patrick is so good to her.”
Christina looked at the face on the TV that was almost eighty percent like herself. She suddenly felt a little depressed.
Christina never paid attention to entertainment news, but recently she took an interest in Miss Jones. She didn’t know if she was too bored or… Concerned.
She suddenly wanted to know more about Cecilia. Theoretically speaking, Cecilia was also her rival in love....
“Charles!” Christina picked up the phone and called Mr. Shepherd.
She did not dare to ask Patrick directly. but Charles was different. She felt that Charles was much easier to get along with than Patrick.
Charles was a little surprised when she
called
He thought for a moment before answering “Christina. what’s the matter? Have you been bothered by the recent news? Are you jealous?”
He gloated in an unserious tone.
When Christina heard the word
jealous her face darkened.
She raised her voice and retorted, “I’m not jealous. I just want to know if | really have a half-sister.”
Speaking of this, Charles once doubted, “Don’t think too much. Cecilia is not related to you at all.”
Cecilia has been an orphan since she was a child. She was adopted by an old couple in Canada when she was a baby. After she grew up, she went to a university in the United States. Patrick met her in New York six years ago...”
Christina looked a little awkward. She also knew that Miss Jones was unlikely to be her biological sister. She just wanted to know more about her rival in love
Then she suddenly thought of something that she didn’t understand.
“Charles, last time in C City, did you say that Patrick went to pray at her tomb?
“You thought she was dead and buried her in C City? Is Cecilia’s ancestral home in C City?” Christina’s ancestral home was exactly in C City
Speaking of this, Charles looked strange and his voice was low. “I don’t
